Environmental fate of the anti-parasitic ivermectin in an aquatic micro-ecological system after a single oral administration [PDF]
PeerJ, 2019 Background Ivermectin (IVM) has been widely used in the aquaculture industry since its efficacy against parasites. However, the degradation of IVM was very slow in aquatic environments and the environmental fate of IVM in a complete aquatic system was ...

Invasive and Rare Aquatic Invertebrates of Taiwan with a Focus on Their Dormancy
, 2023 Invertebrates in tropical ecosystems are generally considered to have little or no need for a dormant phase due to the stability of the habitat. However, resting stages of aquatic organisms are occasionally found here as well.
