Pulmonary venous hypertension (PVH) is caused by deteriorating left ventricular function. The most common cause of PVH in dogs is myxomatous mitral valve degeneration (MMVD). It causes left ventricular volume overload and an increase in left atrial and p...

Microplastics are a major environmental issue. In marine systems, these break down into small fragments that may lodge within organisms, but they behave as vectors for chemicals when pollutants such as metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), pes...

Pyrolysis is a promising way to reuse of waste tires. However, the carbon black generated in the process is often contaminated with various pyrolysis products. This study aims to recycle low-quality recycled carbon black (rCB) from waste tire pyrolysis, ...

The concentrations of 14 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in the sediment of the Tatar Trough were studied. Despite the increase in PAH concentrations over recent decades, which is likely the result of the handling and transportation of fossil fue...

Stormwater runoff is often discharged untreated into receiving waters, a process that is widely recognized as a threat to water quality. To protect water bodies, tools are needed to assess the risk of urban runoff pollution. In this work, a new tool is p...

Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) in water can reach levels below ppt (ng L-1), representing a challenge for risk assessment using long-term exposure. Therefore, sampling devices to monitor trace levels of organic compounds are suitable due to their s...

Agricultural land is often located close to highly urbanised/industrialised areas and is subject to continuous anthropogenic pressure associated with the emission of many pollutants, ultimately deposited in the soil. Most studies on ecological risk asses...
