The acute toxicity of herbicides to algae is commonly assessed under conditions (eg, light
intensity, water temperature, concentration of nutrients, pH) prescribed by standard test …

In 1989, the EU restricted the use of tributyl-tin (TBT) and the International Maritime
Organisation (IMO) decided for a world-wide ban on TBT in 2003. As a replacement for TBT …

The contamination level of the s-triazine herbicide Irgarol 1051, which is used as the active
ingredient in antifouling paints, was studied in the Western Scheldt estuary. The combined …

To study the differential sensitivity to sulfonylurea herbicides of aquatic micro-organisms we
used the micro-plate technique as previously described by Blanck and Björnsäter [Blanck …

The herbicide (±-2-[4, 5-dihydro-4-methyl-4-(1-methylethyl)-5-oxo-1H-imidazol-2-yl]-3-

Herbicide contamination of nearshore tropical marine ecosystems is widespread and
persistent; however, risks posed by most 'alternative'herbicides to tropical marine …

The aim of the present review was to give an overview of the current state of science
concerning herbicide exposure and toxicity to aquatic primary producers. To this end we …

In aquatic environments, organisms are often exposed to mixtures of several pesticides. In
this study, the effects of carbofuran and diuron and their mixtures on the microalgae …

Contamination of the aquatic environment by antifouling compounds has been a topic of
increasing importance during the last few years. This book describes advances in antifouling …

Three of the most commonly used antifouling booster biocides that are usually combined
with copper or copper compounds are Irgarol 1051, Diuron, and Zn pyrithione. This study …
