Many factors influence metal speciation in freshwaters. Metal species that are more soluble
are considered more bioavailable and toxic. However, evaluation of metal speciation in …

The expansion of urban centers, the increase in the use of chemicals in agriculture, and the
significant expansion of industry has dumped increasing amounts of heavy metals into …

Copper (Cu) is a common contaminant in aquatic environments, which could cause
physiological dysfunction in aquatic organisms. However, few studies have …

Toxic metals and metalloid are being rapidly added from multiple pathways to aquatic
ecosystem and causing severe threats to inhabiting fauna including fish. Being common in …

The present study was performed to determine the effect of waterborne CdCl 2 exposure
influencing lipid deposition and metabolism, oxidative stress and mitochondrial dysfunction …

Microplastics (MP) are emerging contaminants widely found in aquatic ecosystems. In
addition to MP toxicity itself, there is increasing concern about the MP adsorption capacity …

The glutathione metabolism contains crucial antioxidant molecules to defend the organisms
against oxidants. Thus, the aim of this study was to investigate the response of the …

Heavy metals are frequently encountered as mixtures of essential and non-essential
elements. Therefore, evaluation of their toxic effects individually does not offer a realistic …

The goal of this study was to evaluate the adverse effects of wastewater effluents on
freshwater crucian carp, Carassius auratus, inhabiting Sincheon stream using the integrated …

Increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide has led to a decrease in the pH of the ocean, which
