“…Other groups also found ecotoxic effects of tire wear leachates versus human lung cells (Gualtieri et al, 2008(Gualtieri et al, , 2005b and Xenopus laevis (Mantecca et al, 2007). In contrast to that, Gomes found no toxicity of rubber infill leachate (LS 9.7 L/kg) versus Daphnia (Gomes et al, 2011). The reason for these different findings might only be related to the respective experimental approach of the leachate production.…”
