Assessment of radon concentration in a residential building – a case study

(Corresponding) Singovszka E., Vertal M., Estokova A.
Topic: 
Environmental exposures and human health
It is known that the highest contribution to the yearly radiation dose for population derives from natural radioactivity. About 50% of that is estimated to be caused by exposure to radon (Rn) and its products. Human exposure to indoor Rn is currently considered as a relevant research topic, because...Read more

Evaluation of the human exposure to a broad spectrum of organic chemicals and the potential use of sewage sludge to prioritize hazardous substances

(Corresponding) Gil-Solsona R., Nika M., Alygizakis N., Bustamante M., Villanueva C., Foraster M., Gómez-Roig M., Llurba-Olive E., Sunyer J., Dadvand P., Thomaidis N., (Corresponding) Gago-Ferrero P.
Topic: 
Environmental exposures and human health
Chemicals are part of our daily lives, and we are exposed to multiple chemicals through multiple pathways. Relevant scientific evidence contributing to regulation of hazardous chemicals requires a holistic approach to assess simultaneous exposure to multiple compounds. In this sense, recent...Read more

Investigation of the relationship between Hg speciation in soil and human health and ecological risk assessment

(Corresponding) SOUBASAKOU G., DAMIKOUKA I., ANAGNOSTOPOULOU K., CAVOURA O.
Topic: 
Environmental exposures and human health
Mercury (Hg) pollution in soils can have major effects on human health and ecological systems. Concentrations, toxicological behaviour and bioavailability of different Hg species, both in the environment and in biological systems differ greatly, and are significa nt in the estimation of both human...Read more
