Journal ArticleDOI
First Determination of UV Filters in Marine Mammals. Octocrylene Levels in Franciscana Dolphins
Pablo Gago-Ferrero,Mariana B. Alonso,Mariana B. Alonso,Carolina P. Bertozzi,Juliana Marigo,Lupércio A. Barbosa,Marta Jussara Cremer,Eduardo R. Secchi,Alexandre F. Azevedo,José Lailson-Brito,João Paulo Machado Torres,Olaf Malm,Ethel Eljarrat,M. Silvia Díaz-Cruz,Damià Barceló,Damià Barceló +15 more
TL;DR: This is the first study to investigate the presence of sunscreen agents in tissue liver of Franciscana dolphin, a species under special measures for conservation, and constitute the first data reported on the occurrence of UV filters in marine mammals worldwide.
Journal ArticleDOI
Trophic relationships and mercury biomagnification in Brazilian tropical coastal food webs
Tatiana L. Bisi,Tatiana L. Bisi,Gilles Lepoint,Alexandre F. Azevedo,Paulo R. Dorneles,Paulo R. Dorneles,Leonardo Flach,Krishna Das,Olaf Malm,José Lailson-Brito +9 more
TL;DR: The findings showed trophic magnification factors (TMF) above 1, demonstrating that THg is being biomagnified up the food chains in Rio de Janeiro bays, indicating substantial contribution of atmospheric nitrogen fixation by cyanobacteria.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pyrethroids: A new threat to marine mammals?
Mariana B. Alonso,Maria Luisa Feo,Cayo Corcellas,Lara G. Vidal,Lara G. Vidal,Carolina P. Bertozzi,Juliana Marigo,Eduardo R. Secchi,Manuela Bassoi,Alexandre F. Azevedo,Paulo R. Dorneles,Paulo R. Dorneles,João Paulo Machado Torres,José Lailson-Brito,Olaf Malm,Ethel Eljarrat,Damià Barceló +16 more
TL;DR: For the first time, a study shows mother-to-calf transfer of pyrethroids by both gestational and lactation pathways in dolphins, despite the assumption that these insecticides are converted to non-toxic metabolites by hydrolysis in mammals.
Journal ArticleDOI
Riverine and marine ecotypes of Sotalia dolphins are different species
TL;DR: Investigation of the specific status of S. fluviatilis ecotypes and their population structure along the Brazilian coast showed that marine and riverine ecotypes form very divergent monophyletic groups, which have been evolving independently since an old allopatric fragmentation event.
Journal ArticleDOI
Toxic heritage: Maternal transfer of pyrethroid insecticides and sunscreen agents in dolphins from Brazil.
Mariana B. Alonso,Mariana B. Alonso,Mariana B. Alonso,Maria Luisa Feo,Cayo Corcellas,Pablo Gago-Ferrero,Carolina P. Bertozzi,Juliana Marigo,Leonardo Flach,Ana Carolina Oliveira de Meirelles,Vítor Carvalho,Alexandre F. Azevedo,João Paulo Machado Torres,José Lailson-Brito,Olaf Malm,M. Silvia Díaz-Cruz,Ethel Eljarrat,Damià Barceló +17 more
TL;DR: The high PYR and UVF concentrations found in fetuses demonstrate these compounds are efficiently transferred through placenta, the first to report maternal transfer of pyrethroids and UV filters in marine mammals.
