Description:
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety focuses on integrated mechanistic research related to short- and long-term pathways and
interactions of substances and chemical mixtures in environmental systems and subsystems on their bioavailability, and assimilation in
organisms, as well as biological responses of these organisms, and damage mechanisms (endocrine disruption, genotoxicity); and on their
subsequent fate in the environment, food chain, including humans. Novel technologies, techniques, and methods such as biomarkers, biosensors
and bioanalytical systems, bioremediation methods, QSARs and QSPRs, advanced high performance computational methods, models, and their
applications in obtaining and processing interdisciplinary ecotoxicological information are also addressed in the journal. We welcome
the applied outcome of complex ecotoxicological research such as developing the science-based Environmental Quality Criteria (EQC), standard
toxicity tests, techniques, and methods for ecotoxicological evaluation of the environment, as well as developing ecotoxicologically
proven methods and technologies for prevention, interception, and remediation of human-induced damage to ecosystems. Emphasis is placed
on ecological animal models rather than laboratory based rodent studies; The above scope of the journal is aimed at providing science-based
tools for sustainably managing the environment through risk assessment, risk characterization, risk prediction, and risk management.
The journal publishes regular research articles, and review articles.
