Contents: Chemical Speciation And Bioavailability Volume 22 Issue 2 2010

Posted on 25. June, 2010.

Chemical Speciation & Bioavailability covers all aspects of environmental science and pollution. In its next issue, CSB  looks at techiniques to determine trace metals in river bed sediments, the heavy metal content in slaker grits from a pulp mill, and the separation of mecury from  natural water sources. It also describes a fast method to measure metal concentration in soil samples. Finally, does selenium in wine from China pose a health risk?

Research on the interactions between the chemical forms and behaviour of toxic compounds and their subsequent biological uptake, metabolism and ecological fate involves many scientific fields. Chemical Speciation and Bioavailabilty presents results which  can often be applied to pressing environmental problems such as toxic waste and human health risk assessment.
