Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology

Abstract

Archives of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology (AECT) is a journal where researchers can publish full-length articles describing the source, transport, fate and effects of environmental contaminants. The journal provides a place for the publication of timely, detailed and definitive scientific studies that provide insight into contaminants in the environment, with multidisciplinary contributions from the fields of analytical chemistry, biochemistry, biology, ecology, environmental science and toxicology. The journal attaches importance to manuscripts that advance our understanding of contaminants of concern in air, water, sediments and biota, the fate and behavior of these contaminants in the environment, and effects on the health of plants and animals. All manuscripts should have strong contextual linkages to the environment. Submissions that present an extension or confirmation of topics that have already been extensively studied or are not considered to be of interest to an international readership will not be considered.
