The (over)touristification of European historic cities: a relation between urban heritage and short-term rental market demand
PublicationIn this chapter, I wish to highlight the critical relationship between heritage management issues and building environment transformation. I argue that such a relationship is directly expressed through the tourism phenomenon, and it should be measured through the economic dimension of the short-term rental market, which introduces this rule of thumb: if there is a lack of demand, the brand of the city is weak; if there is too much...

Oznaczanie pozostałości pestycydów w próbkach żywności w wykorzystaniem metodyki QuEChERS = QuEChERS approach for the determination of pesticide residues in food matrixes
PublicationBez wątpienia, wartym uwagi podejściem do problemu oznaczania pestycydów, ze względu na różnorodność tej grupy związków, jest zastosowanie metodyk oznaczania pozostałości (multi-residue methods - MRMs). Niestety, w literaturze naukowej można znaleźć stosunkowo niewiele informacji na temat takiego podejścia do oznaczania pozostałości pestycydów w próbkach żywności. Stąd próba przybliżenia czytelnikom kilku najistotniejszych, zdaniem...
