Screening acute cytotoxicity biomarkers using a microalga as test organism
(Elsevier, 2012-12)
The present study checked the suitability of the integration of flow cytometry (FCM) as technique and a freshwater microalga (Chlamydomonas moewusii) as cell system model for ecotoxicological studies, looking for sensitive ...
Flow cytometric analysis to evaluate physiological alterations in herbicide-exposed Chlamydomonas moewusii cells
(Springer, 2012-03)
Investigation of herbicide toxicology in non-target aquatic primary producers such as microalgae is of great importance from an ecological point of view. In order to study the toxicity of the widely used herbicide paraquat ...
Characterization of cell response in Chlamydomonas moewusiicultures exposed to the herbicide paraquat: Induction of chlorosis
(2011-03)
[Abstract] The use of herbicides constitutes the principal method of weed control, but the introduction of these compounds into the aquatic environment can provoke severe consequences for non-target organisms such as ...
Suitability of cytotoxicity endpoints and test microalgal species to disclose the toxic effect of common aquatic pollutants
(Elsevier, 2015-04)
Pulse discharges of chemicals to aquatic environments may lead to high concentrations of them in surface waters for short periods of time, but enough to induce toxic effects on aquatic organisms; however, no many methods ...
