background bacterium-bacterium antagonistic interactions could be important in the ecology of marine bacteria. antimicrobial properties of microorganisms are exploited in various fields of human activities. objectives antagonism of heterotrophic bacteria from different marine environments of tropical and temperate zones was examined. materials and methods bacteria were isolated from biofilm sam...

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...

recently, some natural products have been used in the fields as alternative to synthetic compounds, to minimize the negative impacts to the environment. this study aimed to verify the effects of neem-based bio-pesticide in causing acute toxicity for a fish and chronic toxicity for a microcrustacean. to this end, danio rerio and daphnia magna were exposed to various concentrations of a neem-base...
