Aquatic and terrestrial mesocosms in amphibian ecotoxicology

Abstract. Aquatic and terrestrial mesocosms have been used successfully to examine ecological and ecotoxicological questions with amphibians. Mesocosms represent a bridge between the laboratory and the natural world, and allow for experimental research on factors that influence amphibian populations and communities. In this manuscript, we review the current literature utilizing mesocosms for ec...

The Research Progress of Endogenous Formaldehyde in Aquatic Products

Endogenous formaldehyde in aquatic products is a hot research topic, as it is an urgent problem to be solved. This paper summarized the advance in background concentration, generation mechanism and detection methods of endogenous formaldehyde in aquatic products, and the work in the future was prospected.

Progress in ecotoxicology, environmental chemistry and ecology

This Editorial introduces a series of papers on 'Progress in ecotoxicology, environmental chemistry and ecology' and was initiated in the context of the Joint SETAC GLB/GDCh Annual Meeting 2013 at the University of Duisburg-Essen. According to the title of the conference 'Ecotoxicology in an urban context' (Ökotoxikologie im urbanen Raum), a couple of conference contributions dealing with the o...

Toxicology and ecotoxicology of persistent organic microcontaminants in aquatic systems.

Persistent organic pollutants (POP) are a heterogeneous group of chemicals widely distributed in the aquatic environment. Some classes cause adverse effects in the biota at minute concentrations, persist in the environment for a long time, and bioaccumulate in animal tissues. Several strategies exist today to monitor their levels and evaluate their effects in the environment. Particularly, some...
