This book covers the fundamentals, limitations, and challenges of phytoremediation in contaminated water, air, and soil due to rapid demographic and industrial development. This foundational knowledge is necessary to combat negative impacts on human and environmental health brought on by practices such as ore mining, gas emission, pesticide application, and municipal waste generation. The book explains the phytoremediation of organic and inorganic pollutants via different types of microbes, fungi, and various plant groups to improve the quality of contaminated systems, and discusses...

This book will provide an important source of practical information on the history of toxicology, the ways in which pollutants reach model organisms used in toxicology, sampling methods for research, mechanisms of toxicity and responses of aquatic organisms to toxic agents, as well as the use of therapeutic agents in current approaches. Determining the importance of environmentally friendly substances on antioxidant defense is an obvious area of future research.

The combined use of a biomarkers range that can indicate exposure to pollutants and measure their effects on living...

Der erste Band der Reihe Chemie-Basiswissen vermittelt die allgemeinen Grundlagen der Chemie fur Bachelor-Studiengange sowie fur Studierende des hoheren Lehramts. Die Autoren prasentieren die am Curriculum orientierte Stoffauswahl in kurzer und ubersichtlicher Form und in einem lernfreundlichen Layout. In der 10. Auflage sind die Inhalte noch genauer auf die Bedurfnisse der Studierenden zugeschnitten. Zu der fur das Hauptfach Chemie daruber hinaus erforderlichen Chemie der Elemente ist jetzt ein eigener, vierter Band erschienen.
