Journal ArticleDOI

Neonicotinoid contamination of global surface waters and associated risk to aquatic invertebrates: A review

TL;DR: It appears that environmentally relevant concentrations of neonicotinoids in surface waters worldwide are well within the range where both short- and long-term impacts on aquatic invertebrate species are possible over broad spatial scales.
Journal ArticleDOI

Human Health Effects From Chronic Arsenic Poisoning–A Review

TL;DR: Factors combining to increase/decrease the ill effects of As include duration and magnitude of As Exposure, source of As exposure, nutrition, age and general health status.
Journal ArticleDOI

Removal of hexavalent chromium from aqueous solutions by a novel biochar supported nanoscale iron sulfide composite.

TL;DR: A novel biochar supported nanoscale iron sulfide (FeS) composite (CMC-FeS@biochar) combining the advantages of biochar, carboxymethyl cellulose, and FeS was synthesized and tested for Cr(VI) removal efficiency and mechanisms as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acute and subchronic mammalian toxicity of naphthenic acids from oil sands tailings

TL;DR: Results indicate that, under worst-case exposure conditions, acute toxicity is unlikely in wild mammals exposed to naphthenic acids in AOS tailings pond water, but repeated exposure may have adverse health effects.
Journal ArticleDOI

Isolation and characterization of naphthenic acids from Athabasca oil sands tailings pond water.

TL;DR: A laboratory bench procedure was developed to efficiently extract naphthenic acids from bulk volumes of Athabasca oil sands tailings pond water for use in mammalian oral toxicity testing, involving low solvent losses and a good extraction yield with low levels of impurities.
