Evaluation of the probable synergistic toxicity of selected potentiated antiretroviral and antibiotics on some aquatic biomarker organisms

Author: Omotola, EO ; Genthe, B ; Ndlela, Luyanda L ; Olatunji, OS Date: Nov 2023 Environmental effects of active pharmaceutical compounds (APCs) in the environment are not well characterized, hence the need for comprehensive evaluation. This study employed three bioassays using three organisms, namely, Allium cepa, Daphnia ... Read more
From waste to resource: Opportunities and challenges to combat water scarcity

Author: Walters, Chavon R ; Steyn, Maronel Date: Sep 2022 Many parts of South Africa are still staggering on the back of severe droughts experienced over the past decade. Rapid urbanization has created a plethora of water-related challenges, including environmental degradation and water scarcity ... Read more
Insights into the ecotoxic impact of diclofenac using Daphnia magna as a model organism

Author: Omotola, EO ; Genthe, Bettina ; Ndlela, Luyanda L ; Olatunji, SO Date: Jun 2023 Residues of pharmaceutical compounds (PCs) are among the groups of contaminants of emerging concerns that have been reportedly detected in the aquatic environment. These compounds are widely distributed in diverse water bodies, thus, necessitating ... Read more
Phytotoxicity and apoptotic impact assessment of an over-the-counter drug (paracetamol) residue using Allium cepa as a bioindicator

Author: Omotola, EO ; Genthe, Betty ; Ndlela, Luyanda L ; Olatunji, SO Date: Jun 2023 Pharmaceutical compounds (PCs) present in the environment can induce adverse toxic consequences on exposed biotic features. Some PCs have been reported to exert fatal impacts on aquatic fauna. However, information on their toxic actions on ... Read more
Removal of antibiotics using an Algae-Algae consortium (Chlorella protothecoides and Chlorella vulgaris)

Author: Ndlela, Luyanda L ; Genthe, Bettina ; Schroeder, P ; Cruzeiro, C Date: Jul 2023 The intensive use of antibiotics (for human, veterinary, and agricultural purposes) has steadily increased over the last 30 years. Large amounts of antibiotic residues are released into aquatic systems, mostly due to inefficient wastewater ... Read more
The role of wastewater-based epidemiology for SARS-CoV-2 in developing countries: Cumulative evidence from South Africa supports sentinel site surveillance to guide public health decision-making

Author: Iwu-Jaja, C ; Ndlovu, NL ; Rachida, S ; Yousif, M ; Taukobong, S ; Macheke, M ; Mhlanga, L ; Van Schalkwyk, C ; Le Roux, Wouter J ; Schaefer, Lisa Date: Jul 2023 The uptake of wastewater-based epidemiology (WBE) for SARS-CoV-2 as a complementary tool for monitoring population-level epidemiological features of the COVID-19 pandemic in low-and-middle-income countries (LMICs) is low. We report on the ... Read more
A synthesis of mercury research in the Southern Hemisphere, part 2: Anthropogenic perturbations

Author: Fisher, JA ; Schneider, L ; Fostier, A-H ; Guerrero, S ; Guimaraes, JD ; Labuschagne, Casper ; Leaner, JJ ; Martin, Lynwill G ; Mason, RP ; Walters, Chavon R Date: May 2023 Environmental mercury (Hg) contamination is a global concern requiring action at national scales. Scientific understanding and regulatory policies are underpinned by global extrapolation of Northern Hemisphere Hg data, despite historical, ... Read more
