Biofilm Formation and Antibiotic Resistance in Arcobacter butzleri Strains Isolated from Environmental Sources
(Corresponding) Šilha D.
Topic:
10. ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH & WELL-BEING
In recent years, a marked increase in antimicrobial resistance among microorganisms has been reported. One of the key factors contributing to this phenomenon is the formation of biofilms—structured microbial communities that significantly enhance bacterial survival and resistance to external...Read more
Tebuconazole bioconcentration in European Eels (Anguilla Anguilla): the role of pollutant cocktails
Medina-Peris A., Torreblanca A., Andreu V., (Corresponding) Campo J.
Topic:
10. ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH & WELL-BEING
European eel (Anguilla anguilla) populations are in decline across Europe, with organic pollutants (OPs) identified as one of the contributing factors. In the Albufera of Valencia, a critical feeding and maturation habitat for this species, a significant number of OPs have been identified, with...Read more

Remediation of Lead-Contaminated Sand through Cerussite Formation and its Effects on Sand Shear Strength Properties
Keykha H., (Corresponding) Mavroulidou M., Bush J., Romiani H.
Topic:
10. ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH & WELL-BEING
This study addresses the effect of CO2 syntesised carbonate minerals use in situ to remediate lead (Pb)- contaminated soil and their effect on the soil mechanical properties. A spiked sandy soil sample contaminated with 3,000 ppm of lead nitrate (Pb(NO₃)₂) was subjected to injection of hydroxide (...Read more

Lead contaminated soil, carbonate mineral synthesis, CO2 sequestration, cerussite, shear strength
Exposome, Ultrafine Particles, and Glioblastoma: A New Perspective
(Corresponding) Gago-Ferrero P., Gutierrez-Martin D., Nika M., Vidal-Sarro N., Bruna J., Majós C., Pons A.
Topic:
10. ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH & WELL-BEING
Glioblastomas (GBM) are the most common primary brain tumors in adults, but their causes remain largely unknown. Environmental exposures are suspected to play a role; however, the data is limited due to analytical challenges and the difficulty of obtaining brain samples for cohort studies. This...Read more
Can the Fulton and hepatosomatic indexes be good indicators of charity of the baltic fish according to microplastics pollution?
(Corresponding) Astel A., Piskuła P.
Topic:
10. ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH & WELL-BEING
Pollution with MPs and health condition of herring and by-catch species like cod, flounder, sprat, long-spined bullhead, and lumpfish from the Baltic Sea were assessed. Fish were characterized by varying biometric features and condition indexes (i.e. the Fulton factor (K) and the hepatosomatic...Read more

Iodine biofortification of red radish (Raphanus sativus L.) cultivating on hydroponic system
Nguyen T., Záray G., Endrédi A., Streli C., Ingerle D., Radtke M., Guilherme Buzanich A., (Corresponding) Fodor F., (Corresponding) Dobosy P.
Topic:
10. ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH & WELL-BEING
Iodine is a crucial micronutrient for producing thyroid hormones, which regulate metabolism, growth, and development, particularly influencing cognitive and physical health in early life stages. Traditional approaches like iodized salt have limitations, especially in reaching remote populations,...Read more

N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) in Drinking Water: A Probabilistic Health Risk Assessment in Asia
(Corresponding) Chowdhury S.
Topic:
10. ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH & WELL-BEING
N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) has been detected in many daily usable items including drinking water, foods, and cosmetics. It can be formed in drinking water during the disinfection process, which has been detected in numerous drinking water systems worldwide, posing significant public health...Read more
Keywords:
N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA); drinking water; human exposure; cancer risk; loss of disability adjusted life year (DALY)
The pollution before the flood: Microplastics and PAHs in water, sediment and fish from Júcar River basin (E Spain)
(Corresponding) Soursou V., Andreu Perez V., Picó Y., La Nasa J., Modugno F., Giannarelli S., Campo J.
Topic:
10. ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH & WELL-BEING
In October 2024, Júcar River and its tributary, Magro, were responsible for the fatal floods in the south of the province of Valencia. There is general concern about the environmental pollution by microplastics (MPs) due to their possible adverse effects on organisms and their ability to accumulate...Read more

Human Health Risk Assessment and Action Plans for PM10 Pollution: a new integrated methodology for Campania Region (Italy)
(Corresponding) Oliva G., Della Rocca M., D'Amato M., Di Biase E., Zarra T., Naddeo V., Belgiorno V.
Topic:
10. ENVIRONMENTAL HEALTH & WELL-BEING
Air pollution is a global issue with harmful effects on both human health and the environment. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), air pollution causes approximately 7 million premature deaths each year, primarily due to respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. The study presents and...Read more
