Bioavailability of Organic Xenobiotics in the Environment: Practical Consequences for the Environment
ISBN: 9780792359449 / Angielski / Twarda / 504 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In the continuing fight against organic environmental xenobiotics, the initial success attributed to bioremediation has paled, in part due to the low availability of xenobiotics entrapped within a soil or sediment matrix. This has generated a very significant wave of interest in the bioavailability issue. However, much experimental evidence is puzzling or contradictory, mechanistic theories are embryonic, and implications for the practice of bioremediation or concerning the natural fate of xenobiotics are still tentative.
The debate in Europe and the USA is vigorous. Eastern Europe,... In the continuing fight against organic environmental xenobiotics, the initial success attributed to bioremediation has paled, in part due to the low ...
