In the Journal of Environmental Chemistry and Toxicology, The tiny substances and particles that make up Earth are involved in reactions that create new compounds. As a result, the earth is considered to be a closed system in which energy enters and exits while the majority of the mass remains on the globe. This implies that the environment continuously recycles every element on Earth.
The study of reactions, origins, transport, and consequences, as well as the fates of every chemical species existing in the soil, water, and air environments, as well as the effects of technology thereon, are all topics covered by the science of chemistry.
The scientific study of chemical and biological phenomena that take place in the environment is known as environmental chemistry.
Environmental chemistry is a field of research that includes more than just chemicals, soil, water, and air. This field applies a variety of methods from biology, arithmetic, genetics, engineering, hydrology, toxicology, etc. to find answers to all environmental-related queries.
Along with more diversified fields like epidemiology, public health, biochemistry, biology, and toxicology, environmental chemistry also includes elements of analytical chemistry, physical chemistry, organic chemistry, inorganic chemistry, and organic chemistry.
Environmental chemists are in charge of figuring out how the unpolluted environment works and figuring out environmentally friendly methods of sustainable development.
Journal Highlights
Acid Rain:- Acid rain, also known as acid precipitation or acid deposition, is a type of precipitation with a pH of 5.2 or below that is mostly caused by human activity, primarily the burning of fossil fuels, which releases sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxides (NOx; the mixture of NO and NO2). Acid deposition can impair biodiversity and lower the pH of surface waters in acid-sensitive areas. It weakens trees and makes them more vulnerable to harm from other stressors including drought, extremely cold weather, and pests. In acid-sensitive locations, acid rain can also liberate aluminum linked to soil particles and rock in its deadly dissolved form, depleting soil of crucial plant nutrients and buffers like calcium and magnesium. Acid rain causes surfaces exposed to the air to corrode.
Absolute lethal concentration (LC1oo) is the lowest concentration of a chemical in an environmental medium that completely eradicates the test species or organisms' conditions. The number of organisms utilized in this parameter's evaluation will determine its value WHO, 1979
Absorption (biological) is the active or passive transfer of a substance into an organism; in mammals or people, this typically occurs through the lungs, gastrointestinal tract, or skin.
Biological acclimatization
1. The procedures through which a population of microbes gains the capacity to break down a drug or gain a tolerance to it, including selection and adaptation.
2. Giving an animal time to get used to its surroundings before starting a study in animal experiments
Adaptation
1. Change in an organism that occurs in reaction to shifting environmental conditions, notably chemical ones, without causing irreparable damage to the relevant biological system or going beyond the range of normal (homeostatic) responses.
2. The method by which an organism restores physiological balance following an external change.

Work factors associated with ocular symptoms among hairdressers in Kinondoni municipality, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania from
Authors:- Baldwin Tita Olirk, Ezra Jonathan Mrema, Simon Henry Mamuya, Gloria Sakwari, William Nelson
A wonderful work done by the prestigious researchers, the objective was Objective: Hairdressers are exposed to chemicals from hair products such as hair dyes, glues, sprays, and relaxants, which increase the risks for ocular diseases. The magnitude of ocular symptoms is known to be high. There are limited studies assessing factors associated with ocular diseases among hairdressers in Tanzania. The aim of this study was to determine work factors associated with ocular symptoms among hairdressers in Kinondoni Municipality, Dar es Salaam, Tanzania
