Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Chemical pollution of the workplace air in chemical, metallurgical, electric welding, and some other industries, and of all environment media affected by industrial emissions is usually multicomponent, which necessitates adequate assessment of health risks of combined exposure to multiple chemicals. The rationale for such an assessment is the toxicological (mainly experimental) characterization of the types of a combined effect of chemical pollutants. The issue of combined toxicity has been developed by hygiene science for many decades and discussed in a large number of original research publications devoted to specific mixtures of toxicants, systematic reviews and topical monographs (Kustov V.V., 1975; Tolokontsev N.A., 1976; Katsnelson B.A., 2002; ATSDR, 2004; Rakitsky V.N., 2012; Zholdakova Z.I., 2012, etc.). In spite of this, the problem under consideration is far from not only being resolved, but also from a common understanding.
As a guest editor of the IJMS Special Issue “Multifactorial and Multicomponent Influence Assessment on the Toxic Effects Development”, I expect research papers from experts in assessment of toxicity of mixtures and/or combined toxicity.

Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. International Journal of Molecular Sciences is an international peer-reviewed open access semimonthly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. There is an Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal. For details about the APC please see here. Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English.
