Toxicities of glyphosate- and cypermethrin-based pesticides are antagonic in the tenspotted livebearer fish (Cnesterodon decemmaculatus)
(2016)
Although pesticide contamination of surface waters normally occurs in the form of mixtures, the toxicity
and interactions displayed by such mixtures have been little characterized until now. The present study
examined ...
Bacillus subtilis as a bioindicator for estimating pentachlorophenol toxicity and concentration
(Springer Heidelberg, 2009-03-10)
Pentachlorophenol (PCP) and its sodium salt (Na-PCP) are extremely toxic chemicals responsible forimportant soil and groundwater pollution, mainly caused by wastes from wood-treatment plants, because chlorinated phenols ...
A new P. putida instrumental toxicity bioassay
(Springer, 2015-05)
Here, we present a new toxicity bioassay (CO2-TOX), able to detect toxic or inhibitory compounds in water samples, based on the quantification of Pseudomonas putida KT2440 CO2 production. The metabolically produced CO2 was ...

Taxonomic and non-taxonomic responses of benthic macroinvertebrates to metal toxicity in tropical reservoirs: The case of cantareira complex, São Paulo, Brazil
(Academia Brasileira de Ciencias, 2020-03)
Benthic macroinvertebrates are organisms that are recognized as water quality bio-indicators. A wide variety of indices and metrics have been shown to respond to a variety of anthropogenic impacts, usually under a general ...
Mixture toxicity of copper and nonylphenol on the embryo-larval development of Rhinella arenarum
(Springer Heidelberg, 2020-02)
Copper and nonylphenol are two commonly found chemicals in the aquatic environment, particularly in the distribution area of the amphibian Rhinella arenarum. The current work evaluated the lethal toxicity of equitoxic and ...
Predicting zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryo developmental toxicity through a non-conformational QSAR approach
(Elsevier, 2021-11)
For many years, the frequent use of synthetic chemicals in the manufacture of veterinary drugs and plague control products has raised negative effects on human health and other non-target organisms, promoting the need to ...
