Journal ArticleDOI

A critical analysis of the biological impacts of plasticizers on wildlife.

TL;DR: Most plasticizers appear to act by interfering with the functioning of various hormone systems, but some phthalates have wider pathways of disruption, and given the sensitivity of some invertebrates, effects assessments are warranted in other invertebrate phyla.
Journal ArticleDOI

Acute and chronic toxicity of veterinary antibiotics to Daphnia magna.

TL;DR: The observed toxicity of OA to D. magna indicates that this substance, which is a commonly used feed additive in fish farms, has a potential to cause adverse effects on the aquatic environment.
Journal ArticleDOI

Development of copepod nauplii to copepodites--a parameter for chronic toxicity including endocrine disruption.

TL;DR: The results suggest that naupliar development, as a parameter, is able to detect hormonal disrupters in addition to other chemicals that have other specific modes of action.
Journal ArticleDOI

Effects of four synthetic musks on the life cycle of the harpacticoid copepod Nitocra spinipes.

TL;DR: The results from the present study show that it is possible to obtain population-level data from the full life-cycle test with the harpacticoid copepod Nitocra spinipes and there seems to be little risk that synthetic musks are harmful to copepods at present environmental concentrations.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhibition of larval development of the marine copepod Acartia tonsa by four synthetic musk substances

TL;DR: The larval development test with A. tonsa is able to provide important aquatic toxicity data for the evaluation of synthetic musks, and it is suggested that subchronic and chronic copepod toxicity tests should be used more frequently for risk assessment of environmental pollutants.
