Special Issue on
Environmental Toxicology and Human Health
Environmental toxicology concerned with the study of the harmful effects of various chemical, biological and physical agents on living organisms. The assessment of risk factors and identification of health indicators creates the opportunity to understand the effects of chemical, physical, and social characteristics of communities on human health and environmental quality. It is recognized that while underestimating the impact of chemical exposures may result in contamination and/or adverse health effects, overestimating the potential hazards could result in an undue economic burden on communities.
In this special issue, we invite front-line researchers and authors to submit original research and review articles that explore environmental toxicology and human health. In this special issue, potential topics include, but are not limited to:
-
Environmental behaviors of pollutants
-
The toxic effects of chemical pollutants
-
The toxic effect of inorganic polluting
-
The toxic effect of organic pollution
-
Mixtures toxicology
-
Environmental toxicity assessment
-
Sources of environmental toxicity
-
The ecological risk assessment
Authors should read over the journal’s For Authors carefully before submission. Prospective authors should submit an electronic copy of their complete manuscript through the journal’s Paper Submission System.
Please kindly specify the “Special Issue” under your manuscript title. The research field “Special Issue - Environmental Toxicology and Human Health” should be selected during your submission.
