Can toxicokinetic and toxicodynamic modelling be used to understand and predict synergistic interactions between chemicals? Environ. Sci. Technol. (IF 11.3) Pub Date : 2017-09-13
Nina Cedergreen, Kristoffer Dalhoff, Dan Li, Michele Gottardi, Andreas C. KretschmannSome chemicals are known to enhance the effect of other chemicals beyond what can be predicted with standard mixture models, such as concentration addition and independent action. These chemicals are called synergists. Up until now, no models exist that can predict the joint effect of mixtures including synergists. The aim of the present study is to develop a mechanistic toxicokinetic (TK) and toxicodynamic

Quantifying nonlinear multiregional contributions to ozone and fine particles using an updated response surface modeling technique Environ. Sci. Technol. (IF 11.3) Pub Date : 2017-09-11
Jia Xing, Shuxiao Wang, Bin Zhao, Wenjing Wu, Dian Ding, Carey J. Jang, Yun Zhu, Xing Chang, Jiandong Wang, Fenfen Zhang, Jiming HaoTropospheric ozone (O3) and fine particles (PM2.5) come from both local and regional emissions sources. Due to the nonlinearity in the response of O3 and PM2.5 to their precursors, contributions from multiregional sources are challenging to quantify. Here we developed an updated extended response surface modeling technique (ERSMv2.0) to address this challenge. Multiregional contributions were estimated

A Functional Enzyme-based Approach for Linking Microbial Community Functions with Biogeochemical Process Kinetics Environ. Sci. Technol. (IF 11.3) Pub Date : 2017-09-11
minjing Li, Wei-Jun Qian, Yuqian Gao, Liang Shi, Chongxuan LiuABSTRACT: The kinetics of biogeochemical processes in natural and engineered environmental systems is typically described using Monod-type or modified Monod-type models. These models rely on biomass as surrogates for functional enzymes in microbial communities that catalyze biogeochemical reactions. A major challenge to apply such models is the difficulty to quantitatively measure functional biomass

Creation of CO2-philic, amide decorated cavities in the polymer matrix led to a high affinity to CO2. The imprinted polymers showed markedly higher CO2 uptakes compared to their non-imprinted counterparts

The Impact of the Major Baltic Inflow of December 2014 on the Mercury Species Distribution in the Baltic Sea Environ. Sci. Technol. (IF 11.3) Pub Date : 2017-09-08
Joachim Kuss, Florian Cordes, Volker Mohrholz, Günther Nausch, Michael Naumann, Siegfried Krüger, Detlef Eckart Schulz-BullThe Baltic Sea is a marginal sea characterized by stagnation periods of several years. Oxygen consumption in its deep waters leads to the build-up of sulfide from sulfate reduction. Some of the microorganisms responsible for these processes also transform reactive ionic mercury to neurotoxic methylmercury. Episodic inflows of oxygenated saline water from the North Sea temporally re-establish oxic life

BAs undergo sea-air exchange and are transported over the oceans. Here we report 2,4-DiBA and 2,4,6-TriBA in air and deposition on the Swedish west coast (Råö) and the interior of arctic Finland (Pallas). Results are discussed in perspective with previous measurements in the northern Baltic region

Challenges in coupling acidity and salinity transport in porous media Environ. Sci. Technol. (IF 11.3) Pub Date : 2017-09-06
Colin Joseph McNeece, Marc A. HesseSalinity is an increasingly prescient issue in reactive transport, from low salinity water flooding to fracking brine leakage. Of primary concern is the effect of salinity on surface chemistry. Transport and batch experiments show a strong coupling of salinity and acidity through chemical interactions at the mineral-liquid interface. This coupling is ascribed to the combined effects of ionic strength
