Sediment toxicity identification evaluation (TIE phases I and II) based on microscale bioassays for diagnosing causes of toxicity in coastal areas affected by domestic sewage
(Wiley, 2017)
Domestic sewage is a major problem in highly urbanized coastal areas worldwide. In the present study, toxicity identification evaluation (TIE) phases I and II were applied to sediment interstitial water from 2 locations ...

South American Cowbirds as Avian Models for Environmental Toxicity Testing
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2017)
In environmental toxicity testing, the use of native species is normally recommended as it provides greater environmental realism and insures a more conservative end point for protecting ecosystems. Although pesticide ...
Use of newborn Girardia tigrina (Girard, 1850) in acute toxicity tests
(2001)
Acute toxicity tests, exposing Girardia tigrina to potassium dichromate (K2Cr2O7), showed good reproducibility. The 95% confidence intervals among tests were 0.0262±0.0141 g for 48-h LC50 (N=6) and 0.0129±0.0078 g for 96-h ...
Evaluation of the Sensitivity of Freshwater Organisms Used in Toxicity Tests of Wastewater from Explosives Company
(SPRINGERNEW YORK, 2012)
Explosives industries are a source of toxic discharge. The aim of this study was to compare organisms sensitivity (Daphnia similis, Danio rerio, Escherichia coli and Pseudomonas putida) in detecting acute toxicity in ...
Removal of Dye Toxicity from an Aqueous Solution Using an Industrial Strain of Saccharomyces Cerevisiae (Meyen)
(2016-08-01)
The use of synthetic dyes is commonplace in many industries, and the effluent is often dumped into the environment with no prior treatment. The aim of the present study was to analyze the use of an industrial strain of ...
