The objectives of this research were, first, to determine the concentrations certain heavy metals in edible tissue wild brown trout (Salmo trutta trutta) from two different rivers located Abruzzi region (Italy), and then, investigate levels variation vitellogenin (VTG) associated with presence metalloestrogens. VTG is an effective indicator for endocrine disturbance, increase male fish widely employed as a biomarker estrogenic contamination aquatic environment. muscles were analyzed As, Cd,...
Humans are exposed to residues of organophosphate and neonicotinoid pesticides, commonly used in agriculture. Children particularly vulnerable and, among possible adverse outcomes, the increased incidence premature mammary gland development (thelarche) has raised concern. We evaluated toxicological effects chlorpyrifos (CPF), imidacloprid (IMI) glyphosate (GLY) at exposure concentrations occurring children on tumorigenic MCF-7 non-tumorigenic MCF-12A breast cell lines, as representative...
The honeybee is a good biological indicator that quickly reflects chemical impairment of the environment by its high mortality and presence pollutants in body or beehive products. In this work (Apis mellifera) honey were used to detect polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) several areas with different degrees environmental pollution. All sampling sites showed PAHs. Benzo(a)pyrene was never detected. Fluorene, phenanthrene, anthracene, fluoranthene, benz(a)anthracene, benzo(b)fluoranthene,...
Abstract Parabens are classified as endocrine disrupting chemicals due to their ability activate several nuclear receptors causing changes in hormones‐dependent signalling pathways. Central nervous system of developing organisms is particularly vulnerable hormonal pathways, which could lead altered brain function, abnormal behaviour and even diseases later life. The aim the present study was investigate effects exposure butylparaben (BuP), ethylparaben (EtP) methylparaben (MeP) during early...
Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were determined by an HPLC method with fluorescence detection in bivalves (Mitylus galloprovincialis), cephalopods (Todarodes sagittatus), crustaceans (Aristeus antennatus), and fish (Mullus surmeletus, Scomber scombrus, Micromesistius poutassou, Merluccius merluccius) caught the Gulf of Naples (Tyrrhenian Sea, Italy). Anthracene, fluoranthene, pyrene, benz(a)anthracene, chrysene, benzo(b)fluoranthene, benzo(k)fluoranthene detected, at different...
Abstract Parabens are widely used in cosmetics, toiletries, food and pharmaceuticals. Toxicological effects of parabens on human lipid metabolism not well established. The present study the early‐life stages zebrafish ( Danio rerio ) to determine toxicity propylparaben (PP). embryos were exposed for 96 hours postfertilization (hpf) at five different concentrations PP, lethal sublethal alterations recorded daily. concentration 50 (LC value was 3.98 mg/L. most common 1 2 mg/L an enlarged...
