Progress in ecotoxicology, environmental chemistry and ecology
This Editorial introduces a series of papers on 'Progress in ecotoxicology, environmental chemistry and ecology' and was initiated in the context of the Joint SETAC GLB/GDCh Annual Meeting 2013 at the University of Duisburg-Essen. According to the title of the conference 'Ecotoxicology in an urban context' (Ökotoxikologie im urbanen Raum), a couple of conference contributions dealing with the o...
متن کاملGreen chemistry for chemical synthesis.
Green chemistry for chemical synthesis addresses our future challenges in working with chemical processes and products by inventing novel reactions that can maximize the desired products and minimize by-products, designing new synthetic schemes and apparati that can simplify operations in chemical productions, and seeking greener solvents that are inherently environmentally and ecologically ben...
متن کاملGastrointestinal Emergency Room Admissions and Florida Red Tide Blooms.
Human exposure to brevetoxins during Florida red tide blooms formed by Karenia brevis has been documented to cause acute gastrointestinal, neurologic, and respiratory health effects.. Traditionally, the routes of brevetoxin exposure have been through the consumption of contaminated bivalve shellfish and the inhalation of contaminated aerosols. However, recent studies using more sensitive method...
متن کاملPhysiological and physico-chemical characterization of dietary fibre from the green seaweed Ulva fasciata Delile.
This work aims to assess the potential of the green seaweed Ulva fasciata Delile as an alternative source of dietary fibre (DF). Total DF content was determined, some of its physico-chemical properties described and the physiological effects of U. fasciata meal on rats fed a hypercholesterolemic diet were investigated. U. fasciata may be considered a potential alternative source of DF with a to...
متن کاملChemical ecology: can it survive without natural products chemistry?
N disciplines arise by convergence of interests. Chemical ecology is the product of a partnership between biologists and natural products chemists united by a shared vision and empowered by complementary skills. The vision stems from the realization that all organisms emit chemical signals and that all, in their respective ways, respond to the chemical emissions of others. Nature, in accord wit...
