A Threat from the Environment- Chapter 4 The Fate of Antibiotic-Resistant Bacteria in the Environment -- Chapter 5 Relationship Between Outdoor Ambient Air Pollution and Cardiovascular Disorders: A Narrative Review -- Index.Summary: Emerging contaminants are chemical and biological agents for which there is growing concern about their potential health and environmental effects. The threat lies in the fact that the sources, fate and toxicology of most of these compounds have not yet been studied. Emerging contaminants, therefore, include a large number of both recently discovered and well-known compounds such as rare earth elements, viruses, bacteria, nanomaterials, microplastics, pharmaceuticals, endocrine disruptors, hormones, personal care products, cosmetics, pesticides, surfactants and industrial chemicals. Emerging contaminants have been found in many daily products, and some of them accumulate in the food chain. Correlations have been observed between aquatic pollution by emerging contaminants and discharges from wastewater treatment plants. Most actual remediation methods are not effective at removing emerging contaminants. This first volume presents comprehensive knowledge on emerging contaminants with a focus on analysis, toxicity, antibiotic resistance and human health.PPN: PPN: 175696209XPackage identifier: Produktsigel: ZDB-2-SBL | ZDB-2-SXB | ZDB-2-SEB
