6. Zooplankton responses to multiple threats within and across generations
Sammanfattning : In their natural environments, organisms are unlikely to be distributed randomly but instead they are constantly faced with multiple and variable threats. In order to maximise survival, they need to be able to perceive the present threat level and respond accordingly. LÄS MER
7. Microbiome Of Ecotoxicity Assays
Sammanfattning : Microorganisms are ubiquitous and present in animal microbiomes, particulates, and colonizable surfaces of test systems. From an ecotoxicological perspective, they are metabolically active biological compartments that respond to test conditions, including test substances. LÄS MER
8. Integrative approaches in ecotoxicological testing: Implications for biomarker development and application
Sammanfattning : Ecotoxicology aims to understand toxic effects of chemicals in the environment. Effects can be observed at different levels of the biological organization, from molecular to ecosystem level. LÄS MER
9. Phenotypic responses of zooplankton to variable conditions
Sammanfattning : Organisms are continually challenged by multiple threats in the environment, and such threats are seldom constant in either time or space. Therefore, organisms must maintain physiological, behavioural, morphological and life- history adaptations across environments to prevent reductions in fitness. LÄS MER
10. Application and interpretation of biomarkers in ecotoxicology - from molecular to individual level responses
Sammanfattning : The use of biomarkers is considered a promising alternative, or complement, to traditional ecotoxicological assays. Toxic effects are often initially manifested at the molecular or biochemical level, biomarkers are therefore used as sensitive indicators of toxic exposure. LÄS MER
