Journal ArticleDOI
Persistent organic and inorganic pollutants in the effluents from the textile dyeing industries: Ecotoxicology appraisal via a battery of biotests.
Nosra Methneni,José Antonio Morales-González,Ahlem Jaziri,Hedi Ben Mansour,Mercedes Fernández-Serrano +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, textile dyeing wastewater samples were collected before and after the physico-chemical treatment carried out by textile companies located in Monastir-city-Tunisia and subjected to chemical analyzes in order to determine their physicochemical characteristics and the content of metals and textile dyes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ecotoxicity profile of heavily contaminated surface water of two rivers in Tunisia.
Nosra Methneni,José Antonio Morales González,Joris Van Loco,Roel Anthonissen,Jolien Van de Maele,Luc Verschaeve,Mercedes Fernández-Serrano,Hedi Ben Mansour +7 more
TL;DR: Combining chemical and biological approaches, allowed the detection of water ecotoxicity in testing organisms and the identification of possible contributors to the toxicity observed in these multi-stressed water reservoirs.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assessment of natural coagulants to remediate Tunisian textile wastewater by combining physicochemical, analytical, and toxicological data.
Nosra Methneni,Roel Anthonissen,Jolien Van de Maele,Fatma Trifa,Luc Verschaeve,Hedi Ben Mansour,Birgit Mertens +6 more
TL;DR: Although the physicochemical data indicate that the use of natural coagulants (cactus and eggplant) could be an interesting alternative treatment process to the chemical coagULant for detoxifying textile effluents, these results were only partially supported by the toxicological and analytical data.
Journal ArticleDOI
Occurrence of Textile Dyes and Metals in Tunisian Textile Dyeing Effluent: Effects on Oxidative Stress Status and Histological Changes in Balb/c Mice.
Nosra Methneni,Khawla Ezdini,Nouha Ben Abdeljelil,Joris Van Loco,Kathy Van Den Houwe,Riheb Jabeur,Ons Fekih Sallem,Ahlem Jaziri,Mercedes Fernández-Serrano,Nezar H. Khdary,Hedi Ben Mansour +10 more
TL;DR: In this article, the toxicity profile of 90-day oral administration of textile dyeing effluent (TDE) on oxidative stress status and histological changes of male mice was evaluated using analytical approaches and concluded that TDE may involve induction of oxidative stress which ensues in pathological lesions in several vital organs suggesting its high toxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Endocrine Disruption, Cytotoxicity and Genotoxicity of an Organophosphorus Insecticide
Afifa Belaid,Nosra Methneni,Emna Nasri,Sarra Bchir,Roel Anthonissen,Luc Verschaeve,Véronique Le Tilly,Vincenzo Lo Turco,Giuseppa Di Bella,Hedi Ben Mansour,Nezar H. Khdary +10 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a battery of biological tests undertaken in vitro and in vivo was used to evaluate the toxic potential of an organophosphorus insecticide, namely Fenitrothion.
