Because it is only possible to test chemicals for effects on a restricted range of species and
exposure scenarios, ecotoxicologists are faced with a significant challenge of how to …

Ecosystems are usually populated by many species. Each of these species carries the
potential to show a different sensitivity towards all of the numerous chemical compounds that …

The initial step in the assessment of the ecological risk of pollutants is to determine the
predicted no-effect concentration (PNEC). However, ecological risk assessments of eight …

Alkylphenols (APs) are ubiquitous and generally present in higher residue levels in the
environment. The present work focuses on the development of a set of in silico models to …

Difenoconazole is a typical triazole fungicide that can inhibit demethylation during ergosterol
synthesis. Due to its wide use, difenoconazole is frequently detected in surface water, paddy …

The endocrine disrupting chemicals (EDCs) have been at the forefront of environmental
issues for over 20 years and are a principle factor considered in every ecological risk …

Due to their endocrine-disrupting effects and the risks posed in surface waters, in particular
by chronic low-dose exposure to aquatic organisms, phthalate esters (PAEs) have received …

Relationships between toxicity and chemical hydrophobicity have been known for nearly
100 years in mammals and fish, typically using the log of the octanol: water partition …

Ecotoxicological studies have provided extensive insights into the lethal and sublethal
effects of environmental contaminants. These insights are critical for environmental …

Disrupted behavior and respiratory distress effects of 96-h acute deltamethrin exposures in
adult Mozambique tilapia, Oreochromis mossambicus, were investigated using behavioral …
