Effect of floods on DNA damage of two cyprinid fish in the Sava River
(European Communities 7th Framework Programme under Grant Agreement no 603629-ENV-2013-6.2.1-GLOBAQUA, 2016)
Freshwater ecosystems are constantly deteriorated due to the multitude of human activities, intensification of the industrial processes, wastewater discharge and agricultural chemicals. Besides, climate change provokes ...
Seasonal changes in genotoxic potential of the Danube river assessed by comet assay on tissues of freshwater bream
(US National Institute of Environmental Health Science, US Environmental Protection Agency, 2016)
Aquatic ecosystems constant deterioration requires regular monitoring of the genotoxic potential since unrepaired changes in DNA molecule of aquatic organisms may cause consequences on various levels of biological organisation. ...
Ecogenotoxicological assessment of the water quality of the Danube river (site Višnjica) based on DNA damage in various fish species
(Serbian Genetic Society, Belgrade, Serbia, 2019)
This work represents the study of quality of the Danube River, in Belgrade, at the Višnjica
site, by analyzing the genotoxicity of water by using fish as bioindicators. With a population
of about 2 million inhabitants ...
DNA damage and histological changes in gills and liver of cyprinid fish as biomarkers of the Sava River pollution
(Macedonian Ecological Society, 2016)
Fish species living in freshwater ecosystems are exposed to a various range of xenobiotics.
Two of the most important pathways of xenobiotics intake by fish are either via the digestive or
respiratory routes or by ...
Evaluation of genotoxic pressure along the Sava River
(US National Institute of Environmental Health Science, US Environmental Protection Agency, 2016)
In this study we have performed a comprehensive genotoxicological survey along the 900 km of the Sava River - the major drainage basin of the Southeastern Europe and the greatest tributary to the Danube River with 945 km ...
The random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) assay in assessment of genotoxic potential: the Sava River case study
(Institute for Water Quality, Resource and Waste Management TU Wien, 2017)
The Sava River is the major drainage basin of Southeastern Europe and the largest tributary to the Danube River [1]. With a population of about 8.2 million and poor legislation regarding the discharge of wastewaters in the ...
Freshwater mussels in the ecogenotoxicological studies-application of comet assay
("Iuliu Hatieganu" Publishing House Cluj-Napoca, 2014)
Presence of pollutants in aquatic ecosystems can be detected by a range of physiological, histological and molecular responses, including abnormal morphology, alterations of antioxidative status and DNA integrity. The ...
Impact of in vivo and in vitro exposure to 5-fluorouracil, cisplatin, etoposide and vincristine sulphate on DNA damage in haemocytes of freshwater mussels Unio pictorum and Unio tumidus
(GLOBAQUA, CYTOTHREAT, ENDETECH, SCARCE Projects, 2014)
The impact of 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), Cisplatin (CP), Etoposide (Eto) and Vincristine sulphate (Vin) on DNA damage level was studied in vivo and in vitro on haemocytes of freshwater mussels Unio pictorum and U. tumidus using ...
Evaluation of the Sava and the Danube river genotoxicity by Comet assay on different cyprinid fish
(Природно-математички факултет, Бања Лука, 2015)
A number of biological consequences of DNA damage can be initiated at the cellular, organ, whole animal, population and community levels. The comet assay, single cell gel electrophoresis (SCGE), is a sensitive and rapid ...
Detection of genotoxicity in situ in freshwater worm Branchiura sowerbyi Beddard, 1982 (Oligocheta: Tubificidae)
(Serbian Genetic Society, Belgrade, Serbia, 2014)
This study is the first report of application of comet assay for in situ detection of genotoxicity on Branchiura sowerbyi, a freshwater worm commonly found in organic-rich sediment. This species has detritivorous way of ...
