Hazard Assessment of Chemicals: Current Developments, Volume 3 is a collection of expertly written articles that provide relevant and important information on the environmental and health hazard assessment of chemicals. The volume presents studies and expositions on such topics as hazard priority ranking system (or scoring system), a method to rank chemicals on the severity of their ill effects on the environment and human health. The book also tackles the effect of particulates on the toxic manifestations of chemicals; application of aquatic organisms as indicator systems for early detection of waterborne human carcinogens; techniques for metal speciation; and impact of fluorocarbons and other contaminants on stratospheric ozone. Environmentalists, ecologists, toxicologists, public safety officers and workers, and those concerned with the health effects of chemical agents in the environment will find this book very informative.
A Gesellschaft Deutscher Chemiker advisory committee has selected for analysis 512 environmentally important substances from an estimated 100,000 chemicals currently on the European Community market. These are examined according to the following criteria: occurrence and degradability in water and air, bioaccumulation, toxicity, mutagenic or carcinogenic characteristics.
