Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), which are used extensively as brominated flame
retardants, are found ubiquitously in marine environments worldwide. In this paper, we …

Contamination from lower brominated PBDEs is ubiquitous in the environments. However,
their effects on gut microbiota and intestinal health have not yet been investigated. This …

The aim of this study was to determine whether endemic Antarctic nototheniid fish are able
to adjust their liver antioxidant defence system in response to the temperature increase. The …

This work presents data on the quantification of fatty acids (FAs, in terms of mass unit per
tissue weight) in the muscle of Trematomus bernacchii, a key species in Antarctica, often …

The development of integrated ecotoxicological approaches is of great interest in the
investigation of global concerns such as impacts of municipal wastewater effluents on …

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), used as commercial flame-retardants, are
bioaccumulating in threatened Pacific salmon. However, little is known of PBDE effects on …

Legacy pollutants, including polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and metals, can occur
in high concentrations in some Antarctic marine environments, particularly near scientific …

Climate change and anthropogenic pollution are of increasing concern in remote areas such
as Antarctica. The evolutionary adaptation of Antarctic notothenioid fish to the cold and …

In the present study, the possible associations between selected persistent organic
pollutants (POPs) and biological factors were assessed in different tissues of two Antarctic …

The present study aimed to assess the sewage effects of the Brazilian Antarctic Station
Comandante Ferraz, Admiralty Bay, King George Island, on the hepatic metabolism …
