“…In addition, TiNPs induce gut necrosis of epithelial cells and severe edema, indicated by swelling of the cells with enlarged cytoplasms (Kachenton et al, 2019). All these interactions and NPs accumulation in the animal's intestine leads to oxidative stress with the generation of reactive oxygen species (Ates et al, 2020).…”

In this study, the toxicity effects of titanium dioxide (MTiO2) microparticles on Artemia sp. nauplii instar I and II between 24 and 48 h was evaluated. The MTiO2 were characterized using different microscopy techniques. MTiO2 rutile was used in toxicity tests at concentration of 12.5, 25, 50, and 100 ppm. No toxicity was observed in Artemia sp. nauplii instar I at the time of 24 and 48 h. However, Artemia sp. nauplii instar II toxicity was observed within 48 h of exposure. MTiO2 at concentrations of 25, 50 and 100 ppm was lethal for Artemia sp. with a significant difference (p ≤ .05) in relation to the control artificial sea water with LC50 value at 50 ppm. Analysis of optical and scanning electron microscopy revealed tissue damage and morphological changes in Artemia sp. nauplii instar II. By using confocal laser scanning microscopy, cell damage was observed due to the toxicity of MTiO2 at a concentration of 20, 50, and 100 ppm. The high mortality rate is related to the filtration of MTiO2 by Artemia sp. nauplii instar II due to the complete development of the digestive tract.

“…Artemia salina has been approved by the US Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) as a model system to determine acute toxicity of compounds. They have been used in many ecotoxicological assays that have investigated several types of manufactured products that pollute the ocean such as microplastics (Albendín et al, 2021;Ñañez Pacheco et al, 2021), which often travel up the food chain, as well as materials used in nanotechnology (Ates et al, 2015(Ates et al, , 2020Madhav et al, 2017). Because studies on the effects of Roundup are limited, we investigated the outcome of exposure to Roundup using the aquatic crustacean A. salina that inhabits diverse types of salt waters, like saline lakes and oceans, and, as a filter feeder, carries a greater risk of being exposed to pollutants.…”

Roundup ® is the most used glyphosate-based herbicide. During agricultural use it may directly contaminate existing aquatic ecosystems, posing severe concerns for the safety of nontarget terrestrial and aquatic organisms. We investigated the outcome of exposure to different concentrations of glyphosate in Roundup on cyst hatchability, toxicity, and teratogenic effects in the aquatic crustacean Artemia salina that inhabits diverse types of salt waters and, as a filter feeder, carries a greater risk of being exposed to pollutants. We found that exposure to 144 and 288 μg/ml glyphosate in Roundup resulted in cysts unable to complete diapause, and hatchability was completely inhibited during all exposure times tested (17-48 h). A glyphosate concentration of 288 μg/ml in Roundup was lethal to A. salina nauplii, and the lower concentrations (9, 18, 36, 72 μg/ml) had no significant effects on viability. In addition, sublethal and environmentally safe concentrations of glyphosate (0.72 μg/ml) in Roundup affected the early development of A. salina nauplii, with significantly decreased body lengths and reduced widths of the tail, abdomen, and head. The increased level of catalase activity observed in nauplii exposed to 0.72 μg/ml glyphosate for 24 h and those exposed to 7.2 and 72 μg/ml glyphosate for 48 h may be linked to excessive reactive oxygen species levels that had been induced by Roundup. In conclusion, Roundup containing >72 μg/ml glyphosate totally inhibited hatching of cysts and exerted toxic effects on A. salina nauplii. The increased prevalence of developmental defects in the nauplii observed at 0.72 μg/ml glyphosate signifies possible teratogenicity of Roundup exposure even at environmentally relevant concentrations of glyphosate, possibly due to disturbance of the antioxidant defenses, which needs further investigation.

“…To determine the LC 50 , nauplii were exposed to different H 2 O 2 concentrations (50 mM, 100 mM, 150 mM, and 200 mM). The percentage of deaths were determined and converted into probity values by a computer program (Microsoft Excel) to determine the lethal concentration for 24-h exposure (Ates et al 2020).…”

Coconut water is widely consumed and appreciated due its sensory, nutritional, and functional characteristics. Despite being widely consumed, this beverage has a short shelf life that can be improved through processing technologies including nonthermal technologies. Although this processing is promising, it also can generate toxic bioactive compounds of natural and synthetic origin. Their safety has been long discussed, and concern for human food security is now clearly manifested by warnings added on products labels. The aim of this work was to evaluate the toxic and the protective effect of natural and processed coconut water by non-thermal technologies against oxidative stress in brine shrimp (Artemia salina). For acute toxicity test, A. salina nauplii instar II were exposed to different concentrations and ozone-processed (OTCW), plasma-processed (PTCW), and ultrasound-processed (UTCW) coconut water. The non-processed sample was the negative control. By the end of experiment (48 h), dead nauplii were counted and investigated under optical and electron microscopy. The protective effect was evaluated against H 2 O 2 and morphological changes were also investigated. Coconut water treated with plasma and ultrasound was not toxic to Artemia salina nauplii at 10, 100, or 1000 μg mL −1 ; however, ozone-treated artificial seawater caused a mild toxicity to nauplii exposed to 1000 μg mL −1 . All coconut water samples, included untreated samples, presented protective effect against oxidative stress caused by H 2 O 2 reaching levels of 87.5% protection compared to control (24 h of experiment).
