Pesticides and personal care products are two very important groups of contaminants posing a threat to the aquatic environment organisms living in it.. Therefore, this study aimed describe effects widely used pesticides parabens on non-target biota such as fish (using model
Pharmaceutical and personal care products (PPCPs) containing persistent potentially hazardous substances have garnered attention for their ubiquitous presence in natural environments. This study investigated the impact of polyethylene glycol (PEG), a common PPCP component, on Mytilus galloprovincialis. Mussels were subjected to two PEG concentrations (E1: 0.1 mg/L E2: 10 mg/L) over 14 days. Oxidative stress markers both gills digestive glands evaluated; cytotoxicity assays performed...
The aim of this study was to assess stress response broilers different periods shackling. Stress effects shackling were monitored in a group male Ross 308 (total number: 400) aged 42 d. Three treatments used our experiment: for 30 s (group T30), 60 T60), and 120 T120). Corticosterone plasma concentration elevated T60 (P < 0.05) T120 birds 0.01); glucose increased both when compared with nonshackled control. Lactate concentrations T30 0.01). Furthermore, exhibited an increase 0.01) heterophil...
The objective of the study was to investigate subchronic effects insecticidal preparation NeemAzal T/S at concentrations 3, 10 and 30 mg/L on mortality, growth histopathology juvenile zebrafish (Danio rerio), as well its related selected indices oxidative stress during a 28-day toxicity test. test performed according OECD Guidelines 215 (Fish, Juvenile Growth Test). results this indicate that these tested (containing 1% active ingredient azadirachtin A) affect fish have negative influence in...
In the European Union, use of insecticide NeemAzal T/S (standardised variant 1% active ingredient azadirachtin) is authorised in organic agriculture. The objective this study was to determine toxic effects at concentrations 3, 10, 30, and 60 mg/lon morphometric condition characteristics, mortality, hatching, histopathology early-life stages common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.) as a non-target aquatic organism, well related on selected indices oxidative stress same organism. embryo-larval...
Personal Care Products (PCPs) have been one of the most studied chemicals in last twenty years since they were identified as pseudo-persistent pollutants by European Union early 2000s. The accumulation PCPs aquatic environment and their effects on non-target species make it necessary to find new, less harmful, substances. Polyethylene glycol (PEGs) polyvinyl alcohol (PVAs) are two polymers that increased presence composition recent years, but little is known about effect species. Through...
The objective of this study was to determine the coumarin content ground cinnamon purchased from retail markets in Czech Republic. No sample labelled with information on botanical source, but, some cases, countries origin were specified. For comparison, a single imported directly plantation Sri Lanka that came Cinnamomum verum analyzed. Results 60 samples comprising twelve brands confirmed high coumarin, mean levels ranging 2 650 7 017 mg · kg −1 . these obtained cassia contrast Lanka, which...
In the present study, effects of sub-lethal sub-chronic doses ibuprofen, diclofenac, and carbamazepine alone, in combination (concentration range 0.02-60 µg/l), on early life stages tench (Tinca tinca) were investigated. The lower concentrations pharmaceuticals tested (0.02, 0.2, 2 µg/l) represent concentration values these substances commonly surface waters or effluents from wastewater treatment plants. Multiple biomarkers biotransformation, antioxidant defence systems, lipid peroxidation...
The aim of study was to evaluate the effect atrazine exposure (5, 15, 20, and 30 mg·L −1 ) on common carp ability regeneration. During 96 h we observed abnormal behavior in fish exposed 20 .
