Development and validation of Triticum phytobiological method as an alternative procedure for investigating in vivo acute toxicity on mice [PDF]
The goal of this study was to validate an alternative method for determining in vivo acute toxicity using vegetal material instead of laboratory animals, starting from the phytobiological method known also as the Triticum technique.

Experimental evolution reveals high insecticide tolerance in Daphnia inhabiting farmland ponds [PDF]
Exposure of nontarget populations to agricultural chemicals is an important aspect of global change. We quantified the capacity of natural Daphnia magna populations to locally adapt to insecticide exposure through a selection experiment involving ...

Tiered Testing Strategies—Acute Local Toxicity [PDF]
More work has been done to develop alternatives to animal use in the areas of eye and skin irritation than in any area other than carcinogenicity. There has long been a belief both in the scientific community and among the public that the development of nonanimal tests in these areas should be simple and straightforward.

The surface reactivity of iron oxide nanoparticles as a potential hazard for aquatic environments: A study on Daphnia magna adults and embryos [PDF]
open5noNano-ecotoxicology is extensively debated and nanomaterial surface reactivity is an emerging topic. Iron oxide nanoparticles are widely applied, with organic or inorganic coatings for stabilizing their suspensions.
