Assessing interactions between nutrients and aquatic toxicity : influences of nitrogen and phosphorus on ionic silver toxicity to the aquatic macrophyte Lemna gibba.
(2011-05-12)
Though nutrients and silver often co-occur in aquatic ecosystems, the combined effects of these environmental stressors on aquatic plants are poorly understood. Such coexposures are important because nanosilver is increasingly ...
Individual and interactive influences of low dissolved oxygen and calcium channel blockers in inland aquatic systems.
(2018-08-31)
Understanding and managing influences of multiple stressors represents a major water quality challenge, particularly in urbanizing regions. Because aquatic hazard assessments with chemical and nonchemical stressors can ...
Timing matters : defining temporal occurrence and associated water quality hazards for contaminants of emerging concern in municipal effluent.
(2017-04-20)
To understand environmental hazards and risks posed by contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) it is imperative to define the magnitude, frequency and duration of exposure, because temporal variability of environmental ...
Atmospheric concentrations of organophosphate esters in Delhi, India.
(2018-04-27)
The rise of organophosphate esters (OPEs) as ubiquitous global air pollutants is in part associated with their high-production volume, physical and chemical properties, and heavy use in consumer products, including many ...
Street Dust : implications for stormwater and air quality, and management through street sweeping.
(, 2013-09-24)
Street dust represents a source of dual potential risk to stormwater and air quality. It has been well-documented that washing of this material to local watersheds can degrade water quality. Studies have also demonstrated ...
Using in vitro to in vivo extrapolation (IVIVE) to develop toxicity metrics for human health risk assessment of polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs).
(, 2012-11-29)
Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are flame retardants found in many industrial components, such as furniture foam, consumer electronics, plastics, and textiles and levels have increased in humans over the past few ...
Interactive effects of copper oxide nanoparticles and arsenic on rice (O.sativa japonica ’Koshihikari’) plant growth and development.
(2019-05-02)
The emerging applications of nanomaterials (NMs) encompass a wide range of industries, including agriculture (e.g., as fertilizers, pesticides, and biosensors). NMs applied in the crop-field may influence plant growth and ...
Designing quantitative structure activity relationships (QSAR) to predict specific toxic endpoints for polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDE) in mammalian cell culture systems.
(, 2011-12-19)
Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) are becoming increasingly known as effective flame retardants and have vast industrial application in products like plastics, building materials, and textiles. They are found to be ...
Age matters : developmental stage of Zebrafish (Danio rerio) influences bioconcentration, and survival and behavioral photomotor response thresholds.
(2017-08-03)
Toxicology information for the tens of thousands of compounds in commerce is severely lacking, and with continual introduction of new substances, this global chemical space is only increasing in complexity. Thus, generating ...
Aquatic toxicology of salinity and silver in Daphnia magna : a comparative study of standardized chronic endpoints and progeny Phototaxis.
(, 2011-12-19)
Behavioral bioassays with the model freshwater cladoceran Daphnia magna have the potential to serve as nontraditional but sensitive endpoints of sublethal stress in the field of ecotoxicology. However, few studies have ...
