The numbers of potential neurotoxicants in the environment are raising and pose a great risk
for humans and the environment. Currently neurotoxicity assessment is mostly performed to …

Application of the single-cell gel electrophoresis or comet assay has revolutionized the field
of genetic ecotoxicology or eco-genotoxicology. It is a rapid, sensitive and relatively …

This review considers the potential of the Comet assay (or Single Cell Gel Electrophoresis,
SCGE) to evaluate the environmental impact of genotoxins in aquatic environments. It …

This review discusses several research studies that employed comet assay to evaluate the
environmental impact of genotoxins in aquatic environments. It focuses on in vivo and in situ …

Ocean contamination by synthetic polymers can represent a risk for the fitness of marine
species due to the leaching of chemical additives. This study evaluated the sub-lethal effects …

Pollution of the aquatic environment is an ever-growing problem, as waters are the ultimate
sink for the large number of xenobiotics from multiple sources. DNA damaging agents have …

DNA oxidation, which can have potentially serious mutagenic consequences, commonly
accompanies exposure to environmental mutagens. Oxidised bases can be measured …

Tolerance towards environmental stress has been frequently considered as one of the key
determinants of invasion success. However, empirical evidence supporting the assumption …

In the Barents Sea, the limited data on biological relevant indicators and their responses to
various anthropogenic stressors have hindered the development of a consistent scientific …

The neurotoxicological potential of environmental pollution, mainly related to petrochemical
activities, was investigated in marine mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis. Bivalve mollusks …
