Occurrence and spatiotemporal variability of sunscreen agents along the polish part of the Baltic Sea coast
(Corresponding) ASTEL A., STEC M., ASTEL K.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
UV-filters accumulate in tissues of aquatic organisms and induce negative effects on fertility and reproduction. Since they are “new emerging pollutants” general monitoring programs are rare and mainly conducted in touristic places, where high temperatures are recorded throughout the year (Spain,...Read more

Detection of cyanobacterial toxins and oligopeptides from the Polemidia Dam in Cyprus
(Corresponding) Keliri E., Antoniou M., Edwards C., Mazur-Marzec H.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
Cyanobacterial harmful algal blooms are becoming more spatially persistent worldwide. The formation and release, through cell-death and/or excretion, of bioactive metabolites (cyanotoxins) is comprising a reoccurring concern to environmental protection agencies. Cyanotoxins can negatively impact...Read more

Assessment of the pH-effect on the toxicity, uptake & biotransformation of Fluoxetine in Zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos by LC-ESI-QTOFMS
Panagopoulou E., Tzepkinli V., Damalas D., Aalizadeh R., Schweizer M., Schulze P., Kohler H., Von der Ohe P., Triebskorn R., (Corresponding) Thomaidis N.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
Over the recent decades, there is great interest from the scientific community in emerging contaminants, such as pharmaceuticals. Previous studies have demonstrated that they are ubiquitous in aquatic ecosystems, mainly due to insufficient removal by wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs). In light of...Read more
Investigation of the influence of environmentally relevant pH values in the toxicity of the b-blocker Metoprolol in zebrafish (Danio Rerio) embryos through toxicokinetic approaches (uptake, bioaccumulation, and biotransformation)
Tzepkinli V., Panagopoulou E., Damalas D., Aalizadeh R., Schweizer M., Hebel J., Kohler H., Von der Ohe P., Triebskorn R., (Corresponding) Thomaidis N.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
Recently, the release of emerging contaminants into the aquatic ecosystems has become an issue of concern among scientists since some of them are frequently detected in the environment at levels that may cause harm. One of the main categories of emerging contaminants is the human and veterinary...Read more
Toxicity, uptake, and biotransformation assessment of zebrafish embryos exposed to tetracaine, under different pH values, utilizing embryotoxicity and LC-HRMS
Damalas D., Panagopoulou E., Aleiferi E., Tzepkinli V., Aalizadeh R., Schweizer M., Kuttler J., Kohler H., Von der Ohe P., Triebskorn R., (Corresponding) Thomaidis N.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
The contamination of the aquatic environment has raised concerns in the scientific community and regulatory authorities, over the last decades. Given the large number of xenobiotics (such as pharmaceuticals), for most of them there is a striking deficit in the literature concerning their adverse...Read more
Fate Of Nitrofurans: Photochemistry, Transformation Products And Toxicity Evaluation In Surface Water Systems
Efthymiou C., Boti V., Konstantinou I., (Corresponding) Albanis T.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
Nitrofurans (NFs) consist a group of broad-spectrum antibiotic compounds provided as a basic dietary supplement in livestock husbandry as swine farms, beekeeping and aquaculture. Among nitrofurans furaltadone (FTD) is an antibiotic with a protective effect against bacterial and protozoan infections...Read more
Ecotoxicological impacts of pharmaceuticals on marine biota: A Systematic Review
(Corresponding) VAGI M., NTATSI N., PETSAS A.
Topic:
Emerging pollutants
Abstract Pharmaceuticals are a wide class of chemicals used for human and veterinary purposes. As many other anthropogenic organic substances, they can be introduced into various aquatic ecosystems including marine and coastal waters via accidental incidents or spatial sources. Consequently, a...Read more
