期刊介绍： 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.
