Scope/Description:

Environmental Pollutants & Bioavailability is a peer-reviewed open access forum for insights on the chemical aspects of pollutants in the environment and biota, and their impacts on the uptake of the substances by living organisms. Topics include the occurrence, distribution, transport, transformation, transfer, fate, and effects of environmental pollutants, as well as their impact on living organisms. Substances of interests include heavy metals, persistent organic pollutants, and emerging contaminants, such as engineered nanomaterials, as well as pharmaceuticals and personal-care products as pollutants. Key themes of the Journal include the following “6Ms”: Methods for speciation analysis and the evaluation of the bioavailability of environmental pollutants, especially the development, validation, and application of novel methods and techniques. Media that sustain the processes of release, distribution, transformation, and transfer of environmental pollutants; of particular interest are emerging contaminants, such as engineered nanomaterials, pharmaceuticals, and personal-care products. Mobility of pollutants in the environment and biota, either spatially or temporally. Matters that influence pollutant speciation and bioavailability, mainly environmentally relevant conditions. Mechanisms that govern the release, distribution, fate, and transport of environmental pollutants. Models for the simulation of the release, distribution, fate and transport, transformation, bioavailability, bioaccumulation, and toxicity of environmental pollutants. It is the aim of this Journal to develop an international community of experienced colleagues to promote the research, discussion, review, and spread of information on environmental pollutants and bioavailability, which is a topic of interest to researchers in many disciplines, including environmental, chemical, biological, food, medical, toxicology, and health sciences and technologies.
