In this work, we review various PhCs detected in water treatment plants. We propose that fungi, particularly white-rot fungi (WRF), can be used for their bioremediation and describe the main mechanisms used for degrading this type of emerging pollutants; however, we also highlight the need to prospect for new fungal models.

The results of this study show a mutagenic effect of low-dose ionizing radiation in male germ cells. The damage of male germ cells was assessed by the frequency of abnormal sperm heads in tundra voles (Microtus oeconomus Pall.), bank voles (Myodes glareolus Schreb.), and field mice (Apodemus agrarius Pall.) from the 30 km exclusion zone around the Chernobyl nuclear power station and for laboratory animals (mice and rats) under chronic γ-irradiation.

Agriculture is going through a profound revolution worldwide due to increasing world demand for food, higher costs of energy and other inputs, environmental pollution problems, and instability of cropping systems. The importance of plant functioning can be realized from the facts that knowledge of mineral nutrition of plants has opened new vistas for fertilizer practices. The detection of deficiencies and toxicity of particular mineral nutrient element has enabled us to make adequate soil amendments and root nutrient absorption for better plant growth.

Precise detection of the causal metabolite for disease, pollutant etc causing abnormality in human body and environment is the key to cure the defects caused by them. In this regard biosensors are the novel molecule used to detect a particular molecule with unbeatable precision. These biosensor have a large applications, be it in the field of agriculture, medicine, ecology etc. Detection of pollutant causing severe health hazards is one of the hot topics now a day.

Day by day the global environmental pollution is becoming one of the major problems. Dairy is one of the major agricultural industry components. The dairy industry effluent without any treatment plays significant risk for public health and environmental pollution mostly in developing countries because all milk is processed industrially.

Water-borne diseases have been estimated to cause more than two million deaths and four billion cases of diarrhea annually. Water-borne pathogenic organisms include bacteria, protozoa, and viruses. Heavy metal contamination of water is also a potential threat to human health. This study aimed to detect contamination of potable water with protozoal and bacterial pathogens as well as heavy metals in Gharbiya governorate in the middle of the Nile Delta, Egypt. Therefore, this study was conducted on water samples from 3 different localities in Gharbiya governorate throughout the year 2014.

More than half of the world's population relies on solid fuels, including biomass fuels (wood, charcoal, dung, agricultural residues) and coal, to meet their basic energy needs. Cooking and heating with solid fuels on open fires or traditional stoves results in high levels of indoor air pollution. Globally, indoor air pollution is responsible for approximately 1.6 million deaths every year. Various interventions are available to reduce indoor air pollution and associated health impacts at the household level.

The guidelines are targeted at public health professionals involved in prevent- ing health risks of environmental exposures as well as specialists and authorities involved in the design and use of buildings, indoor materials and products. The guidelines are based on the accumulated scientific knowledge available at the time of their development. They have the character of recommendations. Nev- ertheless, countries may wish to use the guidelines as a scientific basis for legally enforceable standards.

At low levels of development measured by per capita GDP, environment pollution will increase. As a country reaches a certain level of GDP, environmental pollution tends to decrease as income increases. The Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) basically describes the relationship between the concentrations of air pollution in the country relative to its gross national income per capita. It is stated that as a country starts to develop (as depicted by the increase of GNP/capita), air pollution level rises due to the increase in production of commodities.

During the last decades, cancer diseases have increased all over the world. The low quality of food and strong pollution of environment are the main prerequisites for carcinogenesis. The main problem for scientists is to find strategy for prevention of cancer diseases. Therefore, the information about models for studying carcinogenesis and mutagens which appear during cooking, environmental pollutants, and tests for specific detection of carcinogens is particularly important.

Remote sensing can be used to support a wide range of applications in Earth’s land surface information management. Typical applications concern, e.g., the mapping of changes due to the effects of pollution and environmental degradation over different periods of time, thanks to the high frequency of coverage of the Earth surface by satellites.
