    • Avoiding the Next Silent Spring: Our Chemical Past, Present, and Future 

      Arp, Hans Peter Heinrich; Aurich, Dagny; Schymanski, Emma L.; Sims, Kerry; Hale, Sarah Elizabeth (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      Rachel Carson’s Silent Spring, (1) published just more than 60 years ago, outlined how the indiscriminate use of dichlorodiphenyltrichloroethane (DDT), a potent, environmentally persistent insecticide, was damaging the ...

    • Effects of Leachates from UV-Weathered Microplastic in Cell-Based Bioassays 

      Rummel, Christophe Daniel; Escher, Beate I.; Sandblom, Oskar; Plassmann, Merle; Arp, Hans Peter; MacLeod, Matthew; Jahnke, Annika (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)
      Standard ecotoxicological testing of microplastic does not provide insight into the influence that environmental weathering by, e.g., UV light has on related effects. In this study, we leached chemicals from plastic into ...

    • Effects of Organic Carbon Origin on Hydrophobic Organic Contaminant Fate in the Baltic Sea 

      Nybom, Inna; Horlitz, Gisela; Gilbert, Dorothea; Berrojalbiz, Naiara; Martens, Jannik; Arp, Hans Peter; Sobek, Anna (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      The transport and fate of hydrophobic organic contaminants (HOCs) in the marine environment are closely linked to organic carbon (OC) cycling processes. We investigated the influence of marine versus terrestrial OC origin ...

    • Enhancing Scientific Support for the Stockholm Convention's Implementation: An Analysis of Policy Needs for Scientific Evidence 

      Wang, Zhanyun; Adu-Kumi, Sam; Diamond, Miriam; Guardans, Ramon; Harner, Tom; Harte, Agustín; Kajiwara, Natsuko; Klánová, Jana; Liu, Jianguo; Moreira, Estefania Gastaldello; Muir, Derek C. G.; Suzuki, Noriyuki; Pinas, Victorine; Seppälä, Timo; Weber, Roland; Yuan, Bo (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      The Stockholm Convention is key to addressing the global threats of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) to humanity and the environment. It has been successful in identifying new POPs, but its national implementation ...

    • The Fate and Transport of Chlorinated Polyfluorinated Ether Sulfonates and Other PFAS through Industrial Wastewater Treatment Facilities in China 

      Liu, Shiyang; Jin, Biao; Arp, Hans Peter; Chen, Wenwen; Liu, Yi; Zhang, Gan (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Wastewater from certain industrial processes can be primary emission sources of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and fluorinated alternatives like chlorinated polyfluorinated ether sulfonates (Cl-PFESA). Two such ...

    • Soil Metabolome Impacts the Formation of the Eco-corona and Adsorption Processes on Microplastic Surfaces 

      Yao, Shi; Li, Xiaona; Wang, Tao; Jiang, Xin; Song, Yang; Arp, Hans Peter Heinrich (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023)
      The eco-corona on microplastics refers to the initial layer of biomolecular compounds adsorbed onto the surface after environmental exposure. The formation and composition of the eco-corona in soils have attracted relatively ...

    • Sorption and Mobility of Charged Organic Compounds: How to Confront and Overcome Limitations in Their Assessment 

      Sigmund, Gabriel; Arp, Hans Peter; Aumeier, Benedikt M.; Bucheli, Thomas D.; Chefetz, Benny; Chen, Wei; Droge, Steven T. J.; Endo, Satoshi; Escher, Beate I.; Hale, Sarah; Hofmann, Thilo; Pignatello, Joseph; Reemtsma, Thorsten; Schmidt, Torsten C.; Schönsee, Carina D.; Scheringer, Martin (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Permanently charged and ionizable organic compounds (IOC) are a large and diverse group of compounds belonging to many contaminant classes, including pharmaceuticals, pesticides, industrial chemicals, and natural toxins. ...

    • Ultra-Short-Chain PFASs in the Sources of German Drinking Water: Prevalent, Overlooked, Difficult to Remove, and Unregulated 

      Neuwald, Isabelle J.; Hübner, Daniel; Wiegand, Hanna L.; Valkov, Vassil; Borchers, Ulrich; Nödler, Karsten; Scheurer, Marco; Hale, Sarah; Arp, Hans Peter; Zahn, Daniel (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) have been a focal point of environmental chemistry and chemical regulation in recent years, culminating in a shift from individual PFAS regulation toward a PFAS group regulatory ...

    • Weathering Plastics as a Planetary Boundary Threat: Exposure, Fate, and Hazards 

      Arp, Hans Peter; Kühnel, Dana; Rummel, Christoph; MacLeod, Matthew; Potthoff, Annegret; Reichelt, Sophia; Rojo-Nieto, Elisa; Schmitt-Jansen, Mechthild; Sonnenberg, Johanna; Toorman, Erik; Jahnke, Annika (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)
      We described in 2017 how weathering plastic litter in the marine environment fulfils two of three criteria to impose a planetary boundary threat related to “chemical pollution and the release of novel entities”: (1) ...
