Microplastic (MP) and heating (T) suspected to modulate biological effects of aquatic contaminants. Salinomycin (Sal) is veterinary antibiotic anticancer agent. The goal this study was examine the multistress effect MP, Sal T on bioindicator bivalve mollusc. Unio tumidus were treated with MP (1 mg L-1), (0.6 µg their combination under 18° C (Mix) 25° (MixT) for 14 days. digestive glands analyzed. did not cause changes Mn- Cu,Zn-SOD, lipid peroxidation Cyp-450-depended EROD levels, whereas...
Caffeine (Caff) is one of the most widely used substances in human diet and a well-recognized drug. Its input into surface waters remarkable, but biological effects on aquatic organisms are unclear, particularly combination with pollutants suspected modulatory activity, like microplastics (MP). The aim this study was to reveal impact marine mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis (Lamark, 1819) Caff (20.0 μg L-1) environmentally relevant (Mix) MP 1 mg L-1 (size 35-50 μm) after exposure for 14 days....
The vulnerability of bivalve mollusks to micropollutants is estimated mainly in single model exposures. However, chronic environmental stress and complex exposures can modulate their responses. To evaluate the impact population-dependent adaptations on ability react common micropollutants, we compared freshwater bivalves Unio tumidus from two distinct populations, pure (Pr) contaminated (Ct), microplastics (MP, 1 mg L−1, size 0.1–0.5 mm), pharmaceutical ibuprofen (IBU, 0.8 μg L−1), or...
The Great Pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis (Gastropoda, Hygrophila) is a wide-spread freshwater gastropod, being considered as model organism for research in many fields of biology, including ecotoxicology. aim the present study was to explore Cd sensitivity L. through measurement biomarker battery oxidative, toxic and cellular stress. interpretation parameters occurred against background truncated metallothionein protein with limited Cd-binding capacity. Individuals were exposed 14 days...
Background. Pharmaceuticals have become the aquatic pollutants of growing concern. Caffeine is one most widely distributed in surface waters among them. However, environmentally relevant models its effect, which include combined exposures with probable confounding factors, are unknown. Microplastics a suspected vector that influences caffeine bioavailability. The temperature dependence response, considering increase waters, can also be anticipated. aim this study was to analyze input...
The zebra mussel Dreissena polymorpha (Pallas, 1771) is an invasive species and a valuable bioindicator in the inland waters. Nevertheless, biochemical reasons for unique competitiveness of mussels are not clear. This study aimed to compare native populations D. their ability withstand same multiple environmental challenges (i.e. chemical: microplastics caffeine; physical: temperatures). specimens from population west Ukraine (Tn) at lower streams river Dnipro (south Ukraine, Kh) were...
Abstract Multistress effects lead to unpredicted consequences in aquatic ecotoxicology and are extremely concerning. The goal of this study was trace how specific the antibiotic salynomycin (Sal) microplastics (MP) on bivalve molluscs manifested combined environmentally relevant exposures. Unio tumidus specimens were treated with Sal (0.6 µg L − 1 ), MPs (1 mg , 2 µm size), both at 18°C (Mix) 25°C (MixT) for 14 days. redox stress apoptotic enzyme responses balance Zn/Cu digestive gland...
Abstract Even though bivalve molluscs are recognized as bioindicators of freshwater quality, their responses to multiple stressors unpredictable. This study aims elucidate the inter-population peculiarities effect in sub-chronic environmentally relevant exposure novel contaminants. The specimens Unio tumidus from pristine (Pr) and contaminated (Ct) areas were treated with ibuprofen (IBU, 0.8 µg L − 1 ), microplastic (MP, 1.0 mg , size 0.1–0.5 mm), or combination (Mix) for 14 days. Untreated...
BACKGROUND AND AIM: One of the common effects herbicide Roundup (Rn, commercial formulation glyphosate) is its adhesive activity towards metal ions. Zinc (Zn) plays crucial role in plural biochemical reactions. The aim this study was to elucidate ability Rn distort Zn functionality ex vivo and exposures bivalve mollusk. METHODS: In exposures, digestive gland Unio tumidus exposed during 17 h (0.08 - 3.0 µM glyphosate), or chelator TPEN (Tp) their combinations ZnTp ZnRn. mussels were (40 80...
Abstract The ability of bioindicators to reflect the specific impacts in complex exposures is unpredicted. This study aimed track particular effects pesticide Roundup (Rn) and antipsychotic drug chlorpromazine (Cpz) on mussel Unio tumidus at environmentally relevant mixtures. mussels were treated by Rn (17 µg L −1 ), Cpz (18 mixture 18 o C (RnCpz) as well 25 (RnT). Digestive glands examined after 14 days exposure. indexes stress response (total antioxidant capacity, glutathione...
