Chiral Environmental Pollutants (2^nd Ed., 2nd ed. 2021) Analytical Methods, Environmental Implications and Toxicology

Roland Kallenborn is a Professor of Organic Analytical Chemistry, Organic Environmental Chemistry at the Faculty of Chemistry, Biotechnology and Food Sciences (KBM) from the Norwegian University of Life Sciences (NMBU) and holds an Adjunct Professor position at the University Center in Svalbard (UNIS). As an environmental chemist, his mains research focuses on method development for identification, characterisation and mitigation of organic environmental pollutants (including contaminants of emerging concern and transformation products), and on elucidation of pollutant profiles in urban agriculture, food processing and Arctic environments. He applies modern trace analytical methods in an interdisciplinary context in his research strategies. Professor Kallenborn is author/co-author of 120 peer reviewed publications, 12 books (author, chapter author and editor), 20 contract reports, 10 popular science papers and 250+ presentations (poster/ oral) at international conferences and seminars. He serves as editor/ editorial board member for the Journals “Current Chromatography”, “Fresenius Environmental Bulletin”, “Ecotoxicology and Chemistry”, “Environmental Science and Pollution Research” and “Chemosphere”.

Heinrich Hühnerfuss is a Professor Emeritus at theDepartment of Chemistry of the University of Hamburg, Germany, where he started his studies in 1963, and received his Ph. D. in 1971. His main research interests include ecotoxicology, biota, water and sediment analyses, remote sensing and characterization of anthropogenic and biogenic monolayers at the air/water interface. Throughout his career, Professor Hühnerfuss has actively contributed to these fields by publishing +200 scientific articles and books.
