Use of the Comet Assay to Evaluate Pesticide Toxicity on Non-Target Microalgae
(Nova Science Publishers, 2009)
Aquatic environments are often contaminated with numerous organic and inorganic compounds. More than 90% of the applied load of pesticides is dispersed in the environment, reaching non-target species of these aquatic ...
Comparison of the sensitivity of different toxicity test endpoints in a microalga exposed to the herbicide paraquat
(2009-02)
[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 microalgae. ...
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 ...
