1. Investigating the temperature mediated effects of antidepressant pharmaceutical on foraging behavior and activity in aquatic invertebrates
Master-uppsats, Umeå universitet/Institutionen för ekologi, miljö och geovetenskapSammanfattning : Contamination by pharmaceuticals in aquatic environments is an increasing problem globally. Wide range of pharmaceuticals of different treatments classes are commonly detected in water and the tissues of organisms and there is a growing concern about how these substances might affect the aquatic ecosystems.

2. Automated Quantitative Phase Imaging Pipeline : for Monitoring Bacterial Cell Growth under Chemical Influence
Uppsats för yrkesexamina på avancerad nivå, Uppsala universitet/Avdelningen Vi3Sammanfattning : Bacteria have a vital role in ecosystems and the human health. However, the effect of environmental pollution on them at the single-cell level are still not well understood. Label-free imaging has become increasingly important within science. It has allowed for the visualization of cells without the use of molecular tools or labels. LÄS MER
3. Identification of mRNA expressions as biomarkers of environmental pollutants in the great pond snail (Lymnaea stagnalis)
Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildningSammanfattning : The great pond snail, Lymnaea stagnalis is considered a sensitive species to environmentalpollution and is used in ecotoxicology testing. The snail is naturally found in the environment inthe Holarctic realm in Europe, northern America and Asia but also in some parts of Australia. LÄS MER
4. How social behaviour in juvenile Brown trout (Salmo trutta) are regulated by social hierarchies and exposure to the benzodiazepine oxazepam
Kandidat-uppsats, SLU/Dept. of Forest Ecology and ManagementSammanfattning : Improved global healthcare rises the production and consumption of human pharmaceuticals. Insufficient wastewater treatment systems and unregulated downstream impacts causes pharmaceutical contamination of surface waters with trace residues in countries covering all continents. LÄS MER
5. Behavioural effects on Lymnaea stagnalis following sublethal exposure to the antidepressant fluoxetine
Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Miljövetenskaplig utbildningSammanfattning : The use of selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRI), a group of antidepressants, increases globally resulting in higher concentrations also in wastewater recipients. These concentrations may cause altered behaviour of aquatic organisms and have effects on whole ecosystem level. LÄS MER
