Abstract A profound analysis of A. tripolium photochemical traits under salinity exposure is lacking in the literature, with very few references focusing on its fatty acid profile role photophysiology. To address this, deep processes were evaluated by Pulse Amplitude Modulated (PAM) Fluorometry coupled a discrimination leaf profile. Plants exposed to 125–250 m NaCl showed higher light harvesting efficiencies and lower energy dissipation rates. exposure, there evident damage oxygen evolving...
Pharmaceutical residues impose a new and emerging threat to aquatic environments its biota. One of the most commonly prescribed pharmaceuticals is antidepressant fluoxetine, selective serotonin re-uptake inhibitor that has been frequently detected, in concentrations up 40 µg L -1 , ecosystems. The present study aims investigate ecotoxicity fluoxetine at environmentally relevant (0.3, 0.6, 20, 40, 80 ) on cell energy lipid metabolism, as well oxidative stress biomarkers model diatom...
Present demographic trends suggest a rise in the contributions of human pharmaceuticals into coastal ecosystems, underpinning an increasing demand to evaluate ecotoxicological effects and implications drug residues marine risk assessments. Propranolol, non-selective β-adrenoceptor blocker, is used worldwide treat high blood pressure conditions other related cardiovascular conditions. Although diatoms lack β-adrenoceptors, this microalgal group presents receptor-like kinases proteins with...
Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS) is an anionic surfactant, extensively used in detergents, household and personal care products, as well industrial processes. The present study aimed to disclose the potential toxicological effects of SDS exposure under environmentally relevant concentrations (0, 0.1, 1, 3, 10 mg L−1) on physiology biochemistry (photosynthesis, pigment, lipid composition, antioxidative systems, energy balance) two marine autotrophs: diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum macroalgae...
Glyphosate is the main active component of commercial formulation Roundup®, most widely used chemical herbicide worldwide. However, its potential high toxicity to environment and throughout trophic webs has come under increasing scrutiny. The present study aims investigate application bio-optical techniques their correlation physiological biochemical processes, including primary productivity, oxidative stress, energy balance, alterations in pigment lipid composition Phaeodactylum...
This study investigates the metal content and compartmentalization changes in whole cells of diatom Coscinodiscus eccentricus exposed to overload, examining consequences cellular toxicity, tolerance mechanisms, fate environment. Cells Ni, Cu Zn were analysed using nuclear microprobe techniques. Particle induced X-ray emission (PIXE), Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS), scanning transmission ion microscopy (STIM) used simultaneously obtain high-resolution imaging morphological...
The use of glyphosate-based herbicides (GBHs) worldwide has increased exponentially over the last two decades increasing environmental risk to marine and coastal habitats. present study investigated effects GBHs at environmentally relevant concentrations (0, 10, 50, 100, 250, 500 μg·L-1) on physiology biochemistry (photosynthesis, pigment, lipid composition, antioxidative systems energy balance) Ulva lactuca, a cosmopolitan macroalgae species. Although cause deleterious such as inhibition...
