Assesment of genotoxic pollution of the Danube River with comet assay in different tissues of common bream (Abramis brama L. 1758)
(Serbian Genetic Society, Belgrade, Serbia, 2014)
The aim of this study was to assess the genotoxic potential of Danube River at the site Višnjica (downstream Belgrade) on monthly basis over year 2014 in tissues of common bream (A. brama). The level of DNA damage in the ...
Bioassays in assessment of genotoxicity and toxicity of freshwater bodies
(EUROPEAN ENVIRONMENTAL MUTAGENESIS & GENOMICS SOCIETY, 2019)
Untreated urban wastewaters impose high pressure on receiving water bodies. Pollution pressure may triger a cascade of events in exposed organisms, affecting different levels of biological organisation. Fish are a widely ...
Bioassays in assessment of environmental pollution
(Institute of Marine Biology, University of Montenegro, 2019)
Water pollution represents one of the main threats of global freshwater diversity. Untreated urban wastewaters are the source of both microbiological and chemical pollution. In exposed organisms, pollution affects different ...
Sensitivity of invasive alien fish in Serbia black bullhead Ameiurus melas (Rafinesque, 1820) as a bioindicator of genotoxicity
(EUROPEAN ENVIRONMENTAL MUTAGENESIS & GENOMICS SOCIETY, 2022)
Invasive alien fish species represent one of the greatest threats to the biodiversity and ecological status of freshwater ecosystems. Within their management, their application as bioindicators of pollution in monitoring ...
Cytostatics as emerging pollutants – is there a threat for aquatic invertebrates?
(University of Agriculture in Krakow, 2018)
Seeking for a better quality of life, consumption of pharmaceuticals is constantly increasing. Pharmaceuticals are designed to be more potent, degradation resistant, to affect protein targets at relatively low doses. Many ...
Comet assay – a sensitive method for detection DNA damage and primary monitoring of ecosystem pollution pressure
(Institute of Marine Biology, University of Montenegro, 2019)
Untreated municipal wastewaters are one of the major negative contributors on freshwater quality, and consequently on ecosystem balance. Some compounds such as pharmaceuticals, cosmetic products, etc. could be genotoxic ...
Application of comet assay in aquatic organisms – summary and lessons learned in past 10 years of field research
(EUROPEAN ENVIRONMENTAL MUTAGENESIS & GENOMICS SOCIETY, 2022)
Within the past decade, our research group placed great effort in exploration of the impact of treated/untreated wastewaters on aquatic ecosystems as less than 13 % of collected municipal wastewaters are processed before ...
The impact of the Sava river pollution on biomarkers response in the liver and gills of three cyprinid species
(Institute for Water Quality, Resource and Waste Management TU Wien, 2017)
Due to the presence of a large number of different pollutants, monitoring of the surface water quality based solely on the analysis of a limited number of xenobiotics, cannot be considered as reliable. Beside toxic, these ...
Significance of genotoxicity and toxicity evaluation of freshwater bodies
(Institute of Marine Biology, University of Montenegro, 2019)
Fish communities are excellent indicators of biological and ecological integrity due to
their continuous exposure to water conditions. Freshwater biodiversity constitute a valu able natural resource but extensive pollution ...
Dynamic of tributyltin influence on DNA damage in haemocytes and cardiac activity of the Mediterranean mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis
(Institute of Experimental Medicine (Prague, Czech Republic) and the University of Kentucky (USA), 2016)
Adverse effects of antifouling paints containing organotin compound tributylin (TBT) marked this agent as one of the most toxic substances released into the sea; therefore, its usage is banned. Considering the lack of TBT ...
