The Predictive Potential of a Battery of Ecotoxicological Tests for Human Acute Toxicity, as Evaluated with the First 50 MEIC Chemicals
Abstract : The acute toxicities of the first 50 chemicals (dextropropoxyphene hydrochloride excluded) of the multicentre evaluation of in vitrocytotoxicity (MEIC) programme were determined on four aquatic invertebrates and a bacterial strain (Photobacterium phosphoreumfor the MicrotoxTM test) commonly used in ecotoxicology testing. Three of the aquatic invertebrate tests consisted of cyst-based ...

Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors and β‐blocker Transformation Products May Not Pose a Significant Risk of Toxicity to Aquatic Organisms in Wastewater Effluent‐Dominated Receiving Waters
A probabilistic ecological risk assessment was conducted for the transformation products (TPs) of three β‐blockers (atenolol, metoprolol, and propranolol) and five selective serotonin re‐uptake inhibitors (SSRIs; citalopram, fluoxetine, fluvoxamine, paroxetine, and sertraline) to assess potential threats to aquatic organisms in effluent‐dominated surface waters. To this end, the ...
