Atrazine is one of the most used pesticides all over the world and it is frequently detected in surface water. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects promoted by environmental concentrations of atrazine on the embryo development of Daphnia magna. All the concentrations induced a percentage of embryo abnormalities higher than 78%. The profile of embryo abnormalities included effects in both stages ...

Endosulfan sulphate is the transformation product of endosulfan and it is the most frequent form of surface water contamination with endosulfan. The aim of this study was to evaluate the possible effects promoted by endosulfan sulphate in changes on the life cycle, embryo development and sex differentiation of Daphnia magna. The endpoints used were moulting frequency, fecundity, growth, developmentally abnormal...
