Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue will focus on the adverse effects of environmental toxicants that are continuously being released into the aquatic environment and the response of aquatic animals.
This Special Issue is associated with contributions in histomorphological effects, immunological, biochemical and physiological mechanisms of toxicity. Additionally, contributions considering the responses of aquatic animals at species, tissue, cellular and molecular level which may serve to identify biological markers that can be used to study the effects of the toxic exposure will also be considered.
Prof. Dr. Ina Wagenaar
Guest Editor
