Various physico-chemical and biological approaches for the removal of toxic pollutants are available, but unfortunately these are not very effective. Biological approaches using microorganisms (bacterial/fungi/algae), green plants or their enzymes to degrade/detoxify environmental contaminants such as endocrine disrupting chemicals, toxic metals, pesticides, dyes, petroleum hydrocarbons and phenolic compounds are eco-friendly and low cost. This book provides a much-needed, comprehensive overview of the various types of contaminants, their toxicological effects on the environment, humans, animals and plants as well as various eco-friendly approaches for their management (degradation/detoxification). As such it is a valuable resource for a wide range of students, scientists and researchers in microbiology, biotechnology, environmental sciences. 410 0$aMicroorganisms for Sustainability,$x2512-1898 ;$v14 606 $aEnvironmental management 606 $aEnvironmental chemistry 606 $aEnvironmental engineering 606 $aBiotechnology 606 $aBioremediation 606 $aEcology 606 $aEnvironmental Management 606 $aEnvironmental Chemistry 606 $aEnvironmental Engineering/Biotechnology 606 $aEnvironmental Sciences 606 $aContaminació$2thub 606 $aContaminants$2thub 606 $aGestió ambiental$2thub 608 $aLlibres electrònics$2thub 615 0$aEnvironmental management. 615 0$aEnvironmental chemistry. 615 0$aEnvironmental engineering. 615 0$aBiotechnology. 615 0$aBioremediation. 615 0$aEcology. 615 14$aEnvironmental Management. 615 24$aEnvironmental Chemistry. 615 24$aEnvironmental Engineering/Biotechnology. 615 24$aEnvironmental Sciences. 615 7$aContaminació 615 7$aContaminants 615 7$aGestió ambiental 676 $a615.902 702 $aBharagava$b Ram Naresh$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910350352503321 996 $aEnvironmental Contaminants: Ecological Implications and Management$91948507 997 $aUNINA LEADER 03762nam 2200541Ia 450 001 9910969499103321 005 20251116215603.0 010 $a9786610742332 010 $a9781280742330 010 $a128074233X 010 $a9780309657969 010 $a0309657962 035 $a(CKB)1000000000471152 035 $a(EBL)3378171 035 $a(MiAaPQ)EBC3378171 035 $a(Perlego)4738174 035 $a(BIP)13337502 035 $a(EXLCZ)991000000000471152 100 $a20060329d2006 uy 0 101 0 $aeng 135 $aurcnu|||||||| 181 $ctxt$2rdacontent 182 $cc$2rdamedia 183 $acr$2rdacarrier 200 00$aFluoride in drinking water $ea scientific review of EPA's standards /$fCommittee on Fluoride in Drinking Water, Board on Environmental Studies and Toxicology, Division on Earth and Life Sciences, National Research Council 205 $a1st ed. 210 $aWashington, D.C. $cNational Academies Press$dc2006 215 $a1 online resource (530 p.) 300 $aDescription based upon print version of record. 311 08$a9780309101288 311 08$a030910128X 320 $aIncludes bibliographical references. 327 $a""Front Matter""; ""Preface""; ""Contents""; ""Summary""; ""1 Introduction""; ""2 Measures of Exposure to Fluoride in the United States""; ""3 Pharmacokinetics of Fluoride""; ""4 Effects of Fluoride on Teeth""; ""5 Musculoskeletal Effects""; ""6 Reproductive and Developmental Effects of Fluoride""; ""7 Neurotoxicity and Neurobehavioral Effects""; ""8 Effects on the Endocrine System""; ""9 Effects on the Gastrointestinal, Renal, Hepatic, and Immune Systems""; ""10 Genotoxicity and Carcinogenicity""; ""11 Drinking Water Standards for Fluoride""; ""References""; ""Appendixes"" 327 $a""Appendix A Biographical Information on the Committee on Fluoride in Drinking Water""""Appendix B Measures of Exposure to Fluoride in the United States: Supplementary Information""; ""Appendix C Ecologic and Partially Ecologic Studies in Epidemiology""; ""Appendix D Comparative Pharmacokinetics of Rats and Humans""; ""Appendix E Detailed Information on Endocrine Studies of Fluoride"" 330 $aMost people associate fluoride with the practice of intentionally adding fluoride to public drinking water supplies for the prevention of tooth decay. However, fluoride can also enter public water systems from natural sources, including runoff from the weathering of fluoride-containing rocks and soils and leaching from soil into groundwater. Fluoride pollution from various industrial emissions can also contaminate water supplies. In a few areas of the United States fluoride concentrations in water are much higher than normal, mostly from natural sources. Fluoride is one of the drinking water contaminants regulated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) because it can occur at these toxic levels. In 1986, the EPA established a maximum allowable concentration for fluoride in drinking water of 4 milligrams per liter, a guideline designed to prevent the public from being exposed to harmful levels of fluoride. Fluoride in Drinking Water reviews research on various health effects from exposure to fluoride, including studies conducted in the last 10 years. 606 $aFluorine$xPhysiological effect 606 $aWater$xFluoridation$zUnited States 615 0$aFluorine$xPhysiological effect. 615 0$aWater$xFluoridation 676 $a613.2/87 712 02$aNational Research Council (U.S.).$bCommittee on Fluoride in Drinking Water. 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910969499103321 996 $aFluoride in drinking water$94359649 997 $aUNINA
