Journal ArticleDOI

Neonicotinoids in bees: a review on concentrations, side-effects and risk assessment

TL;DR: The proposed risk assessment scheme for systemic compounds was shown to be applicable to assess the risk for side-effects of neonicotinoids as it considers the effect on different life stages and different levels of biological organization (organism versus colony).
Journal ArticleDOI

Internal metal sequestration and its ecotoxicological relevance: a review.

TL;DR: Current knowledge regarding metal compartmentalization in organisms is summarized, and metal fractions are identified that are indicators of toxicity that can be approximated for risk assessment of metal stress to biota.
Journal ArticleDOI

Metal-based nanoparticles in soil: fate, behavior, and effects on soil invertebrates.

TL;DR: This review presents an overview of the literature dealing with the fate and effects of metal‐based NPs in soil, and concludes that exposure characterization in ecotoxicological studies should obtain as much information as possible about dissolution, agglomeration, and aggregation processes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Oral sealing using glue: a new method to distinguish between intestinal and dermal uptake of metals in earthworms

TL;DR: In this article, Lumbricus rubellus was sealed by means of medical histoacryl glue, to block ingestion of soil particles and pore water, and no soil ingestion was found.
Journal ArticleDOI

Partitioning of chemical contaminants to microplastics: Sorption mechanisms, environmental distribution and effects on toxicity and bioaccumulation.

TL;DR: A higher partitioning to MPs of chemical contaminants in soil is expected in comparison to aquatic environments as well as the effects of combined exposure to chemicals and MPs on the toxicity and bioaccumulation in biota are discussed.
