Environmental Contaminants in Aquatic Systems and Chemical Safety for Environmental and Human Health, Volume II
This Research Topic is Volume 2 in the Environmental Contaminants in Aquatic Systems and Chemical Safety for Environmental and Human Health series: Given the finite supply of water available for human use, the continued chemical contamination of the aquatic environment may pose a significant human health hazard. Consequently, an effort must be made to develop ambient water quality criteria to protect human health and preserve the integrity of the aquatic environment. In developing water quality criteria based on human health effects, information on sources of exposure, pharmacokinetics, and adverse effects must be carefully evaluated and acknowledged. Information and fundamental knowledge on the sources of exposure are needed to determine the contribution of exposure from water relative to all other sources.
The Environment-Animal-Human Web: A “One Health” View of Toxicological Risk Analysis
One Health (OH) is the conceptual and operational framework that links environment, food-producing organisms and human health. OH is a developing field, that deals with the multifaceted web of feed-backs and interactions among its components. In order to avoid “drowning into complexity”, priority issues should be identified, either for research and for risk analysis. To date OH approaches have frequently pivoted on infectious agents shared among animals and humans and the related problems, such as antibiotic resistance. Nevertheless, the OH scenarios include, and should increasingly include, environment-and-health problems. Food and environment do interact. Environment influences the liv...
Environment and Health
This eBook is a collection of articles from a Frontiers Research Topic. Frontiers Research Topics are very popular trademarks of the Frontiers Journals Series: they are collections of at least ten articles, all centered on a particular subject. With their unique mix of varied contributions from Original Research to Review Articles, Frontiers Research Topics unify the most influential researchers, the latest key findings and historical advances in a hot research area!

E-Waste and Heavy Metals: Health Hazards and Environmental Impact
In recent decades, information technology and electronic devices have undergone significant developments that have remarkably improved our quality of life. Nevertheless, as these electronic devices - such as computer equipment, smartphones, and home appliances - are discarded, they contribute to the production of e-waste, harming our environment and, in turn, posing a danger to human health. With one out of every three people accessing a computer or mobile device worldwide and the increasing use of heavy metals in fields such as medicine, we are witnessing an ever-increasing amount of hazardous e-waste. One of the major toxic components of e-waste is heavy metals, including arsenic, cobalt, ...
Polymetallic Coatings to Control Biofouling in Pipelines
Most of the pipelines used for the transport of various fluids are susceptible to the formation of biofilms, and the undesirable accumulation of microorganisms in pipelines leads to biodeterioration and increases the maintenance cost of the pipelines. This book focuses on nanostructured polymetallic coatings for corrosion and biofouling protection in offshore oil and gas pipelines, marine pipelines, ship structures and port facilities, and corrosion resistance surfaces of several engineered structures. Considering various reasons of biofouling in pipelines that transport crude and refined petroleum, gas, biofuels, and other fluids including sewage, slurry, and water for drinking or irrigatio...
