The COVID-19 pandemic spread rapidly worldwide in the year 2020, which was initially restrained by drastic mobility restrictions. In this work, we investigated use of illicit drugs (amphetamine, methamphetamine, ecstasy, cocaine and cannabis), licit substances abuse (alcohol tobacco) during earlier months (March–July 2020) restrictions four Spanish (Bilbao its metropolitan area, Vitoria-Gasteiz, Castellón Santiago de Compostela) two Portuguese (Porto Vila do Conde) locations wastewater-based...

Both field and experimental data examined the influence of exposure to environmental contaminant tributyltin (TBT) on marine organisms. Although most attention focused imposex phenomenon in gastropods, adverse effects were also observed other taxonomic groups. It has been shown that induction involves modulation retinoid signaling gastropods. Whether TBT influences similar pathways fish is yet be addressed. In this study, larvae model teleost Danio rerio exposed natural retinoids,...

AbstractDespite the recent focus on hazardous and noxious substances (HNS) spills preparedness responses, much remains to be done regarding threat posed by HNS marine biota. Among identified priority HNS, p-xylene was selected conduct ecotoxicological assays. The aim of this study assess performance amphipod Gammarus locusta under acute chronic exposure simulating conditions a spill incident. In (96 h) LC50 estimated. bioassay (36 d), an integration organism-level endpoints (survival, growth...

This study aimed to contribute the development of an embryo-test using gastropod Lymnaea stagnalis, identified by Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) as a potential invertebrate test animal model. Together with Potamopyrgus antipodarum, were first mollusc models be included in organization testing guidelines. The focus was on validating embryo toxicity cover sensitive embryogenesis phase obtaining information all model life cycle stages, contributing close gap...

A thorough bibliographic survey on the use of embryo-tests with aquatic animals for toxicity testing was performed. The data regarding to compounds sensitivity (NOEC, LOEC, EC50 and LC50), available resources different animal models (knowledge life-cycle, amenability laboratory breeding, number embryos produced reproductive strategy, genomic transcriptomic resources), together European pieces legislation guidelines national international agencies (OECD, EPA, ISO, ASTM, ICES) were gathered,...

This study aims to develop an embryo-test using the gastropod Lymnaea stagnalis, identified by Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) as a potential invertebrate test animal model, being first mollusk together with Potamopyrgus antipodarum, be included in organization testing guidelines [1,2]. The focus is on validating embryo toxicity cover sensitive embryogenesis phase obtaining information all of model life cycle stages, trying close gap within this context [3,4]....

Abstract The Atlantic chub mackerel, Scomber colias Gmelin, 1789, is a medium-size pelagic fish with substantial importance in the fisheries of Ocean and Mediterranean Sea. Over past decade, this species has gained special relevance being one main targets NE Atlantic.
