Knowledge gaps regarding the potential role of pesticides in loss agricultural biodiversity worldwide and mixture-related issues hamper proper risk assessment unintentional impacts pesticides, rendering essential monitoring wildlife exposure to these compounds. Free-ranging mammal legacy (Banned Restricted: BRPs) currently used (CUPs) was investigated, testing hypotheses of: (1) a background bioaccumulation for BRPs whereas "hot-spot" pattern CUPs, (2) different contamination profiles...
Anthropogenic pollution poses a threat for the environment and wildlife. Trace metals (TMs) are known to have negative effects on haematological status, oxidative balance, reproductive success in birds. These pollutants particularly increase concentration industrialized, urbanized intensive agricultural areas. Pollutants can also interfere with normal functioning of immune system and, as such, alter dynamics host-parasite interactions. Nevertheless, impact infectious diseases has been...
In Europe, bromadiolone, an anticoagulant rodenticide authorized for plant protection, may be applied intensively in fields to control rodents. The high level of poisoning wildlife that follows such treatments over large areas has been frequently reported. France, bromadiolone used water voles (Arvicola terrestris) since the 1980s. Both regulation and practices rodent have evolved during last 15 years restrict quantity poisoned bait by farmers. This led a drastic reduction number cases...
Throughout history, ancient human societies exploited mineral resources all over the world, even in areas that are now protected and considered to be relatively pristine. Here, we show past mining still has an impact on wildlife some French areas. We measured cadmium, copper, lead, zinc concentrations topsoils wood mouse kidneys from sites located Cévennes Morvan. The maximum levels of metals these one or two orders magnitude greater than their commonly reported mean values European...
Among soil invertebrates, terrestrial snails are herbivorous and detritivorous organisms exposed to polluted soils by both digestive cutaneous routes. Using laboratory-reared (Helix aspersa aspersa), we describe how the effects of contaminants on survival growth can be evaluated in laboratory bioassays. A national ring test was performed assess effect Cd added or food. The ecotoxicity sewage sludge also evaluated. present results demonstrate that toxicity depends pollutants exposure route....
Abstract To understand bioaccumulation kinetics of metals within biota inhabiting industrially contaminated soils, toxicokinetic dynamics and subcellular fractionation were carried out with the terrestrial snail Helix aspersa in a long‐term (six‐month) laboratory experiment. Accumulation elimination determined for Cd, Pb, Zn both viscera foot snails described accurately by one‐compartment models. The fractions obtained sequential centrifugations analyzed isolating metal‐rich granules, tissue...
Concepts and developments for a new field in ecotoxicology, referred to as "landscape ecotoxicology," were proposed the 1990s; however, date, few studies have been developed this emergent field. In fact, there is strong interest developing area, both renewing concepts tools used ecotoxicology well responding practical issues, such risk assessment. The aim of study was investigate spatial heterogeneity metal bioaccumulation animals order identify role spatially explicit factors, landscape...
Abstract The aim of the present work was to study effect Cd 2+ exposure on metallothionein (MT) induction and distribution metals (Cd, Cu, Zn) in terrestrial pulmonate Helix aspersa . In particular, soluble nonsoluble pools accumulated their tissue uncontaminated contaminated edible snails were investigated after a two‐week cytosolic pool midgut gland H. , three metal‐specific putative MT isoforms separated following fractionation protocol with diethylaminoethyl cellulose, size‐exclusion...
In the protected area of Cévennes National Park (Southern France), 114 wild brown trout (Salmo trutta fario) were captured at six locations affected to different extents by historical mining and metallurgy dating from Iron Age Modern Times. Cadmium lead in livers muscles reflect high sediment contamination, although an age-related effect was also detected for hepatic metal concentrations. Lead isotope signatures confirm exposure drainage metallurgical waste. Developmental instability,...
