Geoffroy's side-necked turtle [Phrynops geoffroanus (Schweigger, 1812), Testudines: Chelidae] as a model for evolutionary ecotoxicology: relationship between environmental contamination, conditions and genetic variability
(Funpec-editora, 2013-01-01)
The objective of this study was to evaluate the role of human activity factors, such as environmental contamination and habitat changes, as drivers for changing the physiological, biochemical, and genetic diversity of ...
Leukocyte Profile of Tadpoles and Juveniles of Lithobates catesbeianus Shaw, 1802 (Anura) and the Effects of Nonylphenol and Cyproterone Acetate
(2021-08-01)
Abstract. Amphibians are threatened with extinction worldwide, and one of the global causes is environmental pollution. Several toxicants can interfere with their immune system, making them more susceptible to disease, ...
Alteration of enzyme activities and functional diversity of a soil contaminated with copper and arsenic
(Elsevier, 2020)
Copper (Cu) mining has to address a critical environmental issue related to the disposal of heavy metals and metalloids (HMs). Due to their deleterious effects on living organisms, Cu and arsenic (As) have gained global ...
Ecotoxicological assessment of soil microbial community tolerance to glyphosate
(Elsevier Science, 2015-11)
Glyphosate is the most used herbicide worldwide. While contrasting results have been observed related with its impact on soil microbial communities, more studies are necessary to elucidate the potential effects of the ...
Global metabolic response in the bile of pejerrey (Odontesthes bonariensis, Pisces) sublethally exposed to the pyrethroid cypermethrin
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2012-02)
The metabolic profile of Odontesthes bonariensis and its global response to the insecticide cypermethrin were studied using HPLC-MS-based metabolomics. Three experiments using either juveniles or adults of O. bonariensis ...
Historical trends of the ecotoxicological pesticide risk from the main grain crops in Rolling Pampa (Argentina)
(Public Library of Science, 2020-11)
We showed the results of the first long-term analysis (1987-2019) of pesticide (herbicides, fungicides and insecticides) impact in the Rolling Pampa, one of the main agricultural areas of Argentina. Using a clear and ...
Genetic Features of Antarctic Acinetobacter radioresistens Strain A154 Harboring Multiple Antibiotic-Resistance Genes
(Facultad de Medicina y Ciencia, 2019)
While antibiotic-resistant bacteria have been detected in extreme environments, including Antarctica, to date there are no reports of Acinetobacter species isolated from this region. Here, we characterized by whole-genome ...
