Acute Toxicity of Pyrithione Photodegradation Products to Some Marine Organisms
We evaluated the acute toxicity of zinc pyrithione and copper pyrithione, used as antifouling booster biocides, and their six main photodegradation products to three marine organisms, representing three trophic levels: an alga (Skeletonema costatum), a crustacean (Tigriopus japonicus), and a fish (Pagrus major). The acute toxicity values of the pyrithiones for S. costatum, T. japonicus, and P. ...
متن کاملRisks of Using Antifouling Biocides in Aquaculture
Biocides are chemical substances that can deter or kill the microorganisms responsible for biofouling. The rapid expansion of the aquaculture industry is having a significant impact on the marine ecosystems. As the industry expands, it requires the use of more drugs, disinfectants and antifoulant compounds (biocides) to eliminate the microorganisms in the aquaculture facilities. The use of bioc...

متن کاملDeleterious effects of estrogenic endocrine disruptors on marine organisms: Histological Observed Effects and Some Novel Useful Monitoring Bioassays
Aquatic environments receive significant levels of chemical contaminants generated by human activities. Among these pollutants, we noticed the xenobiotics known as reproductive toxicants and endocrine disruptors. The endocrine disruption in wildlife has been the subject of many reviews and workshops in recent years. Field observations of reproductively abnormal organisms and population declines...
متن کاملEffects on the function of three trophic levels in marine plankton communities under stress from the antifouling compound zinc pyrithione.
This study aimed to investigate functional responses of natural marine planktonic communities to stress from the antifouling compound zinc pyrithione (ZPT). Isotope labelling techniques (14C) were applied to study bacterial incorporation of leucine, photosynthetic activity of phytoplankton and grazing of labelled prey by zooplankton communities for 6 days after exposures to nominal concentratio...
