the tanning industry has for a long time been associated as the primal source of pollution tovarious ecosystems wherever they are sited. effluent spewed by these leather industries including particulatematter has remained very complex requiring more advanced techniques to examine. one such avenue is the use of ecotoxicological diagnosis of the tanning sector to comprehend the underlying environ...

Understanding the effects of exposure to chemical mixtures is a common goal of pharmacology and ecotoxicology. In risk assessment-oriented ecotoxicology, defining the scope of application of additivity models has received utmost attention in the last 20 years, since they potentially allow one to predict the effect of any chemical mixture relying on individual chemical information only. The gold...

Concepts and developments for a new field in ecotoxicology, referred to as "landscape ecotoxicology," were proposed in the 1990s; however, to date, few studies have been developed in this emergent field. In fact, there is a strong interest in developing this area, both for renewing the concepts and tools used in ecotoxicology as well as for responding to practical issues, such as risk assessmen...

the production and use of synthetic nanoparticles is growing rapidly, and therefore the presence of these materials in the environment seems inevitable. titanium dioxide (tio2) presents various possible uses in industry, cosmetics, and even in the treatment of contaminated environments. studies about the potential ecotoxicological risks of tio2 nanoparticles (nano-tio2) have been published but...

In recent years, with the aggravation of environmental pollution, study aquatic ecotoxicology has become a hot topic. Some organisms, such as large fleas, toads, and zebrafish, have been developed applied model organisms. They increasingly used to bioaccumulation toxicity pollutants due advantages their small size, easy reproduction, short life cycle, low maintenance cost, ability combine genet...
