Pesticide Bioaccumulation in Cattle

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 1994
A simple partition model was developed to evaluate the bioaccumulation of chlorinated hydrocarbon pesticides (dieldrin and heptachlor) in the soil-pasture-grazing animal system. Biomagnification factors (BFL) calculated on a lipid basis ranged from 0.115 to 0.175, but could not be directly compared with other values from the literature because of ...

Relationships among tissues, biofluids, and otolith selenium concentrations in wild female burbot (Lota lota)

open access: yesIntegrated Environmental Assessment and Management, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract In the Lake Koocanusa‐Kootenai River system (Montana, USA and British Columbia, Canada), selenium (Se) contamination has become an international concern and is suspected to contribute to the observed burbot (Lota lota) population collapse. Due to our limited ability to sample burbot in Lake Koocanusa for monitoring studies, we used a reference

Bioaccumulation and Phytotoxicity and Human Health Risk from Microcystin-LR under Various Treatments: A Pot Study

open access: yesToxins, 2020
Microcystin-LR (MC-LR) is prevalent in water and can be translocated into soil-crop ecosystem via irrigation, overflow (pollution accident), and cyanobacterial manure applications, threatening agricultural production and human health.

Fate of priority pharmaceuticals and their main metabolites and transformation products in microalgae-based wastewater treatment systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The present study evaluates the removal capacity of two high rate algae ponds (HRAPs) to eliminate 12 pharmaceuticals (PhACs) and 26 of their corresponding main metabolites and transformation products. The efficiency of these ponds, operating with and without primary treatment, was compared in order to study their capacity under the best performance ...

Eutrophication likely prompts metal bioaccumulation in edible clams

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2021
Coastal eutrophication is an indisputable reality and becoming a worldwide concern. However, whether and how eutrophication affects metal bioaccumulation in marine bivalves have not yet been elucidated. Here, we present the potential influence of coastal
