The identification of SARS-CoV-2 particles in wastewater and freshwater ecosystems has raised concerns about its possible impacts on non-target aquatic organisms. In this particular, our knowledge such is still inadequate limited attention been given to issue. Hence, study, we aimed evaluate the induction mutagenic (via micronucleus test) genotoxic single cell gel electrophoresis assay, comet assay) effects adults Poecilia reticulata exposed fragments Spike protein new coronavirus at level...
While the multifaceted social, economic, and public health impacts associated with COVID-19 pandemic are known, little is known about its effects on non-target aquatic ecosystems organisms. Thus, we aimed to evaluate potential ecotoxicity of SARS-CoV-2 lysate protein (SARS.CoV2/SP02.2020.HIAE.Br) in adult zebrafish (Danio rerio) at predicted environmentally relevant concentrations (0.742 2.226 pg/L), by 30 days. Although our data did not show locomotor alterations or anxiety-like or/and...
The growing use of synthetic chemical compounds/substances in vector control mosquitoes, associated with their adverse effects on the environment and non-target organisms, has demanded development eco-friendly alternatives. In this context, study aimed to evaluate larvicidal action different cellulose microcrystalline (CMs) concentrations investigate toxicity mechanisms Culex quinquefasciatus fourth instar larvae as a model species. Probit analysis revealed that median lethal (LC50) for 24 h...
The increasing use of cellulose microparticles in the manufacture different products implies their release natural environments, and it is important to assess how much these materials can impact organisms. Thus, we aimed evaluate possible toxicity induced by short exposure (seven days) Physalaemus cuvieri tadpoles microcrystalline (CM) (at 58.29 100 mg/L). Although our data do not point a neurotoxic effect CMs (inferred absence behavioral changes AChE BChE activity), animals exposed showed...
The input of SARS-CoV-2 or its fragments into freshwater ecosystems (via domestic hospital sewage) has raised concerns about possible impacts on aquatic organisms. Thus, using mayfly larvae [Cloeon dipterum (L.), Ephemeroptera: Baetidae] as a model system, we aimed to evaluate the effects combined short exposure SARS-CoV-2-derived peptides (named PSPD-2001, PSPD-2002, and PSPD-2003 – at 266.2 ng/L) with multiple emerging pollutants ambient concentrations. After six days exposure, observed...
Steel wool (SW) has a broad-spectrum of applicability, particularly as abrasives, cleaning household utensils and surfaces in general. Yet, when discarded the natural environment, they can be ingested by animals, for instance birds, may represent risk to survival individuals. Accordingly, this study, we attempted hypothesis that ingestion SW microfibers (SWMs) Gallus gallus domesticus chicks (model system used) alters growth/development, induces redox imbalance cholinesterase effect, well...
