Total concentrations and sources of heavy metal pollution in global river and lake water bodies from 1972 to 2017

TL;DR: In this article, the authors collected past sampling data on total concentrations of 12 heavy metals (Cd, Pb, Cr, Hg, Zn, Cu, Ni, Al, Fe, Mn, As, and Co) in surface water bodies, i.e., 168 rivers and 71 lakes, from 1972 to 2017.

Cystoseira barbata marine algae have a molluscicidal activity against Biomphalaria alexandrina snails supported by scanning electron microscopy, hematological and histopathological alterations, and larvicidal activity against the infective stages of Schistosoma mansoni

TL;DR: Conclusively, C. barbata ethanolic extract contains bioactive molecules that could be developed as molluscicides for the control of freshwater intermediate hosts for schistosomiasis.

Eobania vermiculata as a potential indicator of nitrate contamination in soil.

TL;DR: The effects of nitrates were analysed on the land snail Eobania vermiculata, a good bioindicator to assess the effects of certain pollutants in soil and showed that the invertebrate organism E. verMiculata despite being a simple organism is very useful and efficient for ecotoxicological studies.
Journal ArticleDOI

Assessment of DNA integrity through MN bioassay of erythrocytes and histopathological changes in Wallago attu and Cirrhinus mirigala in response to freshwater pollution.

TL;DR: The aim of this study was to determine the level of contamination and genotoxic impact through micronucleus assay and histopathology in Wallago attu and Cirrhinus mrigala procured from the polluted site of the River Chenab at industrial and sewage waste disposal.
