Environmental pollution (Barking, Essex : 1987)
The increase in trace element concentrations in the aquatic environment due to anthropogenic activities, urges the need for their monitoring and potential toxicity, persistence, bioaccumulation, and biomagnification at different trophic levels. Gilthead seabream is a species of commercial importance in the Mediterranean Sea, both for the aquacultur...

Neonicotinoids are the most widely used class of insecticides in the world but they have raised numerous concerns regarding their effects on biodiversity. Thus, the objective of this work was to do a critical review of the contamination of the environment (soil, water, air, biota) by neonicotinoids (acetamiprid, clothianidin, imidacloprid, thiaclop...

The Science of the total environment
Nanoclays are found in the air, water, and soil, and modified nanoclays are being developed and used in several consumer products. For example, modified nanoclays are used to remove pollutants from wastewater. Ironically, however, nanoclays are now considered emerging contaminants. Indeed, release of modified nanoclays in aquatic systems, even as r...

Environmental monitoring and assessment
Contamination of fish with metals is a worldwide consumer safety concern. In this study, three metals such as arsenic (As), chromium (Cr), and lead (Pb) were measured in two commonly consumed fish species Oreochromis niloticus (Tilapia) and Pangasianodon hypophthalmus (Pangasius) that are commercially farmed. The concentration of the metals studied...

Ionic liquids (ILs) have been considered eco-friendly alternatives to conventional organic solvents. However, several studies have reported that ILs exert toxicity towards aquatic invertebrates. Applying in vitro methodology, the aim of the present study was to evaluate the potential effect of three ILs on the biochemical performance of exposed Myt...

Reproductive costs must be balanced with survival to maximize lifetime reproductive rates; however, some organisms invest in a single, suicidal bout of breeding known as semelparity. The northern quoll (Dasyurus hallucatus) is an endangered marsupial in which males, but not females, are semelparous. Northern quolls living near mining sites on Groot...

The no-effect concentration (NEC) is the preferred threshold metric for single-species toxicity tests applied to derive safe concentration thresholds for contaminants in the environment for use in species sensitivity distributions. However, the NEC is only suitable when concentration-response (C-R) data exhibit a threshold response. We describe an ...

Merolimnic insects can accumulate and transport considerable amounts of aquatic contaminants to terrestrial systems. The rate of contaminant biotransport, termed insect-mediated contaminant flux (IMCF), depends on emergent insect biomass and contaminant accumulation, both functions of environmental concentration. We developed a mathematical model o...

Os fungicidas a base de cobre e manganês são utilizados nas áreas de várzea próximas a Manaus - Amazonas, para controle de doenças em plantas cultivadas. Esses agrotóxicos, mesmo quando usados adequadamente, podem vir a se acumular no ambiente e tornar-se um risco para a atividade biológica do solo, a qual é fundamental para a exploração agrícola s...

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a well-known endocrine-disrupting compound that causes several toxic effects on human and aquatic organisms. The restriction of BPA in several applications has increased the substituted toxic chemicals such as bisphenol F (BPF) and bisphenol S (BPS). A native tropical freshwater cladoceran, Moina micrura, was used as a bioindic...
