Analysing herbicides in soil is a complex issue that needs validation and optimization of
existing methods. An extraction and analysis method was developed to assess …

This paper presents a field-study of real pesticide application conditions in a vineyard. The
objective was to measure the exposure, the transfer and the effects of pesticides on a non …

The invertebrate springtail species Paronychiurus kimi (Lee) was selected for use in toxicity
testing because it is more ecologically relevant to Korean soils than Folsomia candida …

Purpose The aim of this work was to assess the transfer and effects of two widely used
herbicides on the land snail Helix aspersa during long-term exposure under laboratory …

Genetically modified (GM) crops may affect earthworms either directly through the plant, its
root exudates and litter, or indirectly through the agricultural management changes that are …

South Africa is rich in mineral resources and is one of the leading raw material exporters in

The effect of soil moisture on population dynamics of Paronychiurus kimi (Collembola) was
examined by combining an empirical soil moisture model with a temperature-sensitive …

Bioassays for ecotoxicity testing for the same non-target soil organism are not currently
available for contaminants that can be present in the liquid, solid or gaseous phase of soil …

The goal of this study was to identify promising new biomarkers of cadmium by identifying
differentially expressed proteins in Paronychiurus kimi after exposure to cadmium. Through …
