Laboratories testing Hyalella azteca use a wide range of ages (or sizes) of the amphipod in their studies. The objective of this study was to investigate age-specific differences in sensitivity of the amphipod to contaminants with varying toxic modes of action. Hyalella azteca, ranging in age from <1 to 26 d, were tested in 96-h water-only exposures with the organophosphate pesticide diazinon, a m...... hiện toàn bộ
An Ecologically Framed Mercury Survey of Finfish of the Lower Chesapeake BaySpringer Science and Business Media LLC - Tập 65 - Trang 510-520 - 2013
Xiaoyu Xu, Michael C. Newman, Mary C. Fabrizio, Lian Liang
Total mercury (THg) and methylmercury (MHg) concentrations and determents of mercury (Hg) accumulation were examined for muscle tissues of 10 finfish from the lower Chesapeake Bay (LCB) and its tributaries. There was no suggestion of potential human harm from Hg due to LCB fish consumption: None of the sampled fish had THg concentrations approaching the United States Environmental Protection Agenc...... hiện toàn bộ

The agricultural expansion over the past decades, along with the associated increase in the use of pesticides, represents a high risk for many wild species. Caiman latirostris is a South American caiman with many features that make it highly vulnerable to pesticide exposure. Considering previous finding on the genotoxicity of the glyphosate-based formulation Roundup® in this species, the aim of th...... hiện toàn bộ
