Impact of in vivo and in vitro exposure to selected cytostatics on DNA damage in haemocytes of freshwater mussels Unio pictorum and Unio tumidus
(Serbian Genetic Society, Belgrade, Serbia, 2014)
The impact of 5-Fluorouracil (5-FU), Cisplatin (CP) and Etoposide (Eto) on DNA damage level was studied in vivo and in vitro on haemocytes of freshwater mussels Unio pictorum and U. tumidus using alkaline comet assay. For ...
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 ...
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 ...
Genotoxicity evaluation of the Sava River using comet assay on silver bream (Abramis bjoerkna L. 1758)
(Serbian Genetic Society, Belgrade, Serbia, 2014)
The aim of this study was to evaluate genotoxic potential of the Sava River during 2014, at site Duboko in the Belgrade region, which is under the impact of agricultural, urban and industrial activities. DNA damage was ...
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 ...
In situ assessment of DNA damage in Branchiura sowerbyi Beddard, 1892 (Oligochaeta: Tubificidae) from the Sava river using comet assay
(GLOBAQUA, CYTOTHREAT, ENDETECH, SCARCE Projects, 2014)
Aquatic oligochaete, Branchiura sowerby (Beddard, 1892) is a cosmopolitan tubificid species commonly found in organically enriched freshwater environments. These aquatic worms inhabit river and lake sediment where they ...
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 ...
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. ...
Cytostatics as emerging pollutants in aquatic environments - risk assessment based on genotoxic effects in haemocytes of freshwater mussels
("Iuliu Hatieganu" Publishing House Cluj-Napoca, 2014)
Pharmaceutical compounds have begun to be considered as dangerous environmental pollutants, due to their widespread occurrence in wastewaters and their potential hazard towards the aquatic ecosystems. The comet assay was ...
