Ecotoxicology/toxicology studies of xenobiotic products on aquatic fauna. Acute, chronic and sublethal studies in the standardized invertebrate Daphnia magna and other aquatic invertebrates Population growth inhibition studies in microalgae. Toxicological studies, teratogenicity/embryogenicity in fish /invertebrates embryos. Ecotoxicological/toxicological implications of chemical products used in aquaculture, agriculture, derived from daily use in humans, drugs.... Ecotoxicological analysis of urban wastes, WWTPs, new chemicals such as pesticides. Water quality. Use of biomarkers to determine endocrine (reproductive, metabolic), physiological (induction of the correct stress response), and enzymatic disruption. Induction of oxidative stress and phase I, II and III detoxification processes) as well as recovery of individuals after a contaminant event. Bioremediation.
