HSP70 as a Biomarker: an Excellent Tool in Environmental Contamination Analysis—a Review
(2018-08-01)
HSP70 are the most studied proteins and among all HSPs are highlighted due to their high sensitivity and abundance, as well as being ubiquitously expressed and associated with all subcellular compartments. For this reason, ...
Biomarkers of exposure to metal contamination and lipid peroxidation in the benthic fish Cathorops spixii from two estuaries in South America, Brazil
(SPRINGER, 2009)
Biomarkers as lipid peroxidation, metallothionein and delta-aminolevulinic acid dehydratase were determined in Cathorops spixii to compare the biological responses of this fish from estuaries with distinct anthropogenic ...
Scindapsus aureus as potential biomarker of polluted environment
(OMICS International, 2018-02)
Living organisms are subject to different environmental effects, including physical, biological or chemical factors. In front of pollution, which can be defined as an aggression, the organisms must be adapted to survive. ...
Evaluation of the effectiveness of a bioremediation process in experimental soils polluted with chromium and lindane
(Academic Press Inc Elsevier Science, 2019-10)
Bioremediation using actinobacterium consortia proved to be a promising alternative for the purification of co-contaminated environments. In this sense, the quadruple consortium composed of Streptomyces sp. M7, MC1, A5, ...
Assessment of historical fecal contamination in Curitiba, Brazil, in the last 400 years using fecal sterols
(Victocria, 2014-07-11)
A 400-year sedimentary record of the Barigui River was investigated using fecal biomarkers and nutrient distribution. The temporal variability in cholesterol, cholestanol, coprostanol, epicoprostanol, stigmastanol, ...
Validation of a suite of biomarkers of fish health in the tropical bioindicator species, tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum)
(2017-02-01)
Here we explore the dose-dependent response of the tropical fish tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) to intraperitoneal injection of benzo[a]pyrene (BaP) at doses of 0 (carrier control), 1, 10, 100 and 1000 μmolar BaP Kg−1 ...
Shell alterations in limpets as putative biomarkers for multi-impacted coastal areas
(2017-01-01)
During the last years, shell alterations in gastropods have been proposed as tools to be used in monitoring programs. However, no studies were so far performed investigating the relationships among shell parameters and ...
Crab carapace shape as a biomarker of salt marsh metals pollution
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2021-08)
Coastal environmental pollution is a global problem that has been growing for decades. For this reason, different approaches have been sought to address and detect its environmental implications. Some organisms are considered ...
