Towards a Clean, Litter-Free European Marine Environment through Scientific Evidence, Innovative Tools and Good Governance (CLEANSEA)
Start date: Jan 1, 2013, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
There is an urgent need for an improved knowledge base for the management of marine litter. CLEANSEA aims to generate new information on the impacts (biological, social and economic) of marine litter, develop novel tools needed to collect and monitor litter and protocols needed for monitoring data (litter composition and quantities) and evaluate the impact of mitigation strategies and measures in ...

Developmental neurotoxicity assessment of mixtures in children (DENAMIC)
Start date: Jan 1, 2012, End date: Dec 31, 2015,
Various recent epidemiological studies have indicated that exposure to low doses of environmental biologically active contaminants during human development can alter gene expression and have deleterious effects on cognitive development in childhood. The DENAMIC project is ultimately focused on reducing such effects of environmental contamination on learning and developmental disorders in children. ...

Life Cycle Assessment of Environment-Compatible Flame Retardants ( Prototypical case study) (ENFIRO)
Start date: Sep 1, 2009, End date: Nov 30, 2012,
Brominated flame retardants (BFRs) will be phased out because of their environmental hazards. Less toxic alternatives appear to be available already but comprehensive information on their possible toxicological effects are lacking. ENFIRO offers a prototypical case study on substitution options for BFRs resulting in a comprehensive dataset on viability of production and application, environmental ...
