ABSTRACT This study investigates the chronic effects of chlordecone (CLD) and propylparaben (PP), two pro‐estrogenic endocrine disruptors, on Hydra vulgaris Pallas, 1766 using a multiscale approach over a 14‐day exposure period. Environmentally relevant concentrations of CLD (0.5, 5, 20 μg L−1) and PP (0.01, 0.05, 0.40 μg L−1) were tested individually ...

Adaptation to extreme environments: A review of Antarctic fish physiology
Abstract Having evolved in the chronically cold and thermally stable waters of the Southern Ocean (SO) for millions of years, Antarctic fish possess a suite of physiological specializations that enable them to survive at temperatures near the freezing point of seawater. Adaptations include the evolution of antifreeze proteins, modifications of membrane

Occurrence of organochlorine pesticides in indoor dust [PDF]
Organochlorine pesticides are present in the environment and suspected of causing serious health effects. Diet has been the main exposure source, but indoor source release is gaining focus. Within a monitoring study of polychlorinated biphenyls of Danish buildings built during the 1960s and 1970s, we coincidently determined extreme levels of ...

ABSTRACT Since the late 1990s, the pesticide industry has undergone a ‘generics revolution’ as the centre of production, and trade has shifted to the global South. China and India have become major producers, capturing Latin American markets from Northern multinationals. As a major pesticide user and a key node in global supply chains, Argentina offers

ABSTRACT The influence of agrochemical firms on testing and risk assessment standards constitutes a central yet understudied dimension of the political economy of agrochemicals and the formation of a corporate‐dominated global pesticide regime. How leading R&D firms—formally positioned as competitors—have converged in the production and dissemination ...

The role of storm flows in concentration of pesticides associated with particulate and dissolved fractions as a threat to aquatic ecosystems - Case study: the agricultural watershed of Save river (Southwest of France) [PDF]
Measurement of the fluxes of pesticides was carried out for a year, ending in March 2009, in the Save catchment, in the vicinity of Toulouse. The hydrograph separation technique was used to evaluate the respective contribution of stormflow and baseflow ...

The Global Pesticide Complex: Infrastructure, Fragility and Frontiers of Agrarian Change
ABSTRACT Although most pesticides have long been on the market, the political economy surrounding their production, regulation and use has undergone considerable change, spurring renewed interest in the social sciences. The global pesticide complex (GPC) is an analytical device to understand the multidimensional nature of these changes. In this special
