The contamination of Pernambuco coast by emulsified oil was characterized as a large-scale environmental disaster. In this sense, we are proposing a modern approach involving the evaluation of chemical parameters to characterize the degree of exposure to polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), contaminants of high toxic potential in oil, to which species residing in these aquatic environ…
Coastal ecosystems have served as reservoirs for several contaminants and residues, creating challenges for sustainable development and environmental management. In this context, the pollution caused by marine litter has been raising concern among managers and scientists. These residues are defined as any type of manufactured solid material discarded in marine environments, resulting from…
Due to ecological and economic importance, mollusks are widely used as models in studies of environmental contamination and toxicology. These animals present wide geographic distribution, abundance, are easily sampled in the environment, have sedentary behavior and a high capacity to bioaccumulate contaminants. Studies using gastropods and bivalves have shown morphological alterations in …

In 2050 there will be more plastic than fish in the oceans, as this is currently the most abundant material among marine litter (between 61 and 87%), besides having slow degradability in marine and coastal environments. The occurrence of plastic polymers can lead to aesthetic, economic, social and biological damages in coastal environments. Microplastics (MPs), of small dimensions (5mm), …
Environmental quality assessments are often required to estimate anthropogenic impacts on natural environments and guide management and public policies for the conservation of these areas. For this, measurement of contamination levels and effects has been performed using high complexity analytical determinations which often cannot be employed at low costs. Therefore, the use of indicator …
Coastal aquatic environments can be impacted due to different anthropogenic activities. As consequence, organisms inhabiting these areas are frequently exposed to a mixture of hazardous chemical substances. Recently, studies in South-American coastal zones showed that limpets collected in environments with different degrees of contamination presented shells with morphological alterations,…
The contamination of aquatic systems is a problem with worldwide concern. Among the responses observed in mollusks exposed to contaminants, shell alterations have been recently used as tool in toxicological studies. Changes in shell form and (micro)structure in mollusks sampled in contaminated sites in comparison to reference sites were reported in several species from different countries…
