Invertebrates have long been an important tool for assessing water pollution due to their
characteristics as intermediate consumers in aquatic ecosystem food chains. Most of the …

Pesticides are well known for their high levels of persistence and ubiquity in the
environment, and because of their capacity to bioaccumulate and disrupt the food chain …

Agrochemicals can adversely affect biodiversity, environment and human health, and
commonly occur in mixtures with poorly characterized toxic mechanisms and health …

The vulnerability of bivalve mollusks to micropollutants is estimated mainly in single model
exposures. However, chronic environmental stress and complex exposures can modulate …

Even though bivalve molluscs are recognized as bioindicators of freshwater quality, their
responses to multiple stressors are unpredictable. This study aims to elucidate the inter …

Nanoparticle toxicity is a growing concern in freshwater habitats. However, understanding of
the nanoparticle effects on aquatic organisms is impeded by the lack of the studies of the …

Chlorothalonil is a thiol-reactive antifoulant that disperses widely and has been found in the
marine environment. However, there is limited information on the deleterious effects of …

Cadmium (Cd), classified as human carcinogen, is an extremely toxic heavy metal pollutant,
and there is an increasing environmental concern for cadmium exposure through …

Bivalve mollusks from the cooling reservoirs of fuel power plants (PP) are acclimated to the
chronic heating and chemical pollution. We investigated stress responses of the mussels …

Nanotoxicology is an important field that has started to unravel the adverse effects of
nanoparticles. The major emphasis is on developing strategies to reduce the toxicity of …
