1. Mercury Concentration in Liver Tissues of South American Fur Seals (Arctocephalus australis) from Southwestern Atlantic Ocean
Mercury (Hg) contamination of oceans is rapidly increasing, however Hg bioaccumulation in pinnipeds has been understudied. Here, we report for the first time Hg concentration in liver tissues of South American fur seals (Arctocephalus australis) in South and Southeast Brazil. Hg concentration was determined in twenty-five fur seals’ specimens found strande

2. Bioaccumulation and depuration of Escherichia coli in the tropical clam Anomalocardia brasiliana at different salinities
RESUMO Anomalocardia brasiliana é um molusco de areia filtrador que habita entremarés, o qual pode acumular enterobactérias como E. coli e, consequentemente, afetar o ser humano. A depuração de moluscos é o procedimento para reduzir a contaminação; para isso, é necessária uma adequada qualidade da água. A fim de analisar o efeito da salinidade na

3. Mercury bioaccumulation, genotoxic and biochemical biomarkers reveal the health status of yellow-spotted Amazon River turtles (Podocnemis unifilis) in an environmental protection area in the Amazon
RESUMO Quelônios são considerados bons bioindicadores da qualidade ambiental. A avaliação do estado de saúde de populações de quelônios na Amazônia também é importante porque estes animais são tradicionalmente consumidos em grandes quantidades em comunidades ribeirinhas e em reservas de uso sustentável. O presente estudo avaliou a saúde de Podo

4. NEGATIVE EFFECTS ON PHOTOSYNTHESIS AND CHLOROPLAST PIGMENTS EXPOSED TO LEAD AND ALUMINUM: A META-ANALYSIS
ABSTRACT Toxic metals have become some of the main abiotic agents that influence the stress of organisms due to their numerous agricultural and industrial uses that result in bioaccumulation and toxicity at different levels, depending on the type and concentration in the environment. Aluminum and lead are present as a result of anthropogenic activities and c

5. Simple GFAAS Method for Determination of Pb, As, and Cd in Cannabidiol Extracts Used for Therapeutic Purposes
Cannabis sativa has many promising medicinal applications for the mitigation, or even cure, of chronic diseases. The high bioaccumulation potential of C. sativa enables its use for the phytoremediation and detoxification of soil, may increase the levels of inorganic elements in products such as cannabidiol (CBD) extracts being necessary the evaluation/monito

6. Impact of Anthropogenic Activities on Water Quality of The Paranhana River, Southern Brazil
Abstract: The Paranhana River, located in Southern Brazil, is one of the major tributaries of the Sinos River basin and receives mainly industrial and domestic effluents. In the present study, water physicochemical and microbiological analyses, condition factor, micronucleus test, gill histopathology and metal bioaccumulation in the muscle of the native fish

7. Pentoses Used in Cultures of Synechococcus nidulans and Spirulina paracas: Evaluation of Effects in Growth and in Content of Proteins and Carbohydrates
Abstract The biological assimilation of the sugars present in lignocellulosic residues has gained prominence since these residues are the most abundant and economic residues in nature. Thus, the objective of this work was to determine whether the use of D-xylose and L-arabinose as sources of carbon in Synechococcus nidulans and Spirulina paracas cultures af

8. Bioaccumulation, Growth and Photosynthetic Response of a New Found in Bulgaria Invasive Species Lemna minuta and L. valdiviana to Heavy Metal Pollution
RESUMO: Metais pesados podem ser encontrados no meio ambiente como ingredientes naturais ou de práticas agrícolas, industriais e químicas. Este estudo foi conduzido com o objetivo de traçar o potencial das plantas aquáticas L. minuta e L. valdiviana para a bioacumulação de Cu, Cd e Pb a partir de água contaminada com baixos níveis desses elementos.

9. Cupriavidus necator strains: zinc and cadmium tolerance and bioaccumulation
ABSTRACT: Among soil microorganisms, the genus Cupriavidus has garnered particular scientific, economic and ecological interest because of its ability to fix nitrogen and tolerate high concentrations of metals. The aim of this study was to analyze four strains of Cupriavidus necator for their ability to tolerate and bioaccumulate cadmium and zinc. The tolera

10. Heavy Metal Bioaccumulation in Enteromorpha intestinalis, (L.) Nees, a Macrophytic Algae: The Example of Kadin Creek (Western Anatolia)
ABSTRACT This study aims to specify the amount of ten heavy metals (Al, Cr, Mn, Ni, Cu, Zn, As, Cd, Hg, Pb) in water, sediment and Enteromorpha intestinalis samples gathered from Kadin Creek in seasonal periods in 2011 and 2012 and to reveal bioaccumulation capability of this macrophytic algae. In this regard, heavy metal concentrations in the gathered sampl

11. MERCURY IN THE SEDIMENT OF PELOTAS RIVER BASIN, BRAZIL
ABSTRACT Many studies have determined the concentration of trace elements in river sediments in Brazil. Notwithstanding, mercury assessments are scarce, especially because of exclusive extraction techniques and expensive analysis techniques. Still, this element is known for its toxicity, persistence, and bioaccumulation, making its presence in the environmen

12. Evaluation of Distribution and Bioaccumulation of Arsenic by ICP-MS in Tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) Cultivated in Different Environments
The concentration of arsenic in tissues of tilapia was evaluated and an estimation of the risks associated with the consumption of this fish was done, taking into account the guidelines established by FAO/WHO. The inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) technique in kinetic energy discrimination (KED) mode was employed and certified reference m
