This chapter outlines the key questions and answers on the history of global environmental pollution; existing protocols used to characterize the toxic risks of biogenic contaminants and environmental pollutants; exposure pathways in humans and other vertebrates; interactions between two toxic ...
The aetiology, risk factors, clinical signs, diagnosis and treatment of infectious and non-infectious causes of infertility in female cats are described, including infertility in purebred cats, sexual immaturity, lack of oestrous cycle, mating problems, spontaneous ovulation, uterine diseases,...

This chapter provides highlights on some major pollution incidents associated with extraction, transport and storage of fossil fuels, including wastewater and effluent discharges, relates such episodes to the chemical composition of different fuels, outlines routes of exposure of fuel contaminants, ...
Phytoremediation is a proven technology for many organic and inorganic pollutants. Practical reasons have led trees to be neglected in laboratory studies in favour of herbaceous model species. However, trees are gaining momentum over herbaceous plants in field trials because of their greater...
This chapter contains questions about the pollution of air, land and water (and its effect on food chains), environmental damage and disturbance and major environmental disasters.
Currently, air pollution is one of the most imperative problems and has a major role in global climate change and premature deaths throughout the world. Various types of air pollutants (e.g. particulate matter, NOx, SOx, CO and O3) are present in the atmosphere and have significant effects on human ...
Pollution can be grouped into 4 main categories: (i) air pollution; (ii) water pollution; (iii) soil pollution; and (iv) pollution in the work place (the exposure to certain pollutants due to a particular profession, such as agricultural workers' exposure to fertilizers or garment manufacturers'...
Attention to the air-pollution problem is being given by the scientific community and overall global community because of the scale of its impact on human health, the living environment and climate change. Efforts to reduce air pollution have stepped up in various parts of the world. In general,...
