“…Regardless of the differences between species and indications of rare spatial differences, the overall element levels in the muscle tissues of six fish species from the Raša River were comparable to or lower than the reported data for low-contaminated freshwater systems [ 9 , 19 , 27 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 51 , 52 , 53 , 54 , 55 , 56 , 57 , 74 , 76 , 80 , 81 , 82 , 83 , 84 , 85 , 86 , 87 , 88 , 89 , 90 , 91 , 92 , 93 , 94 , 95 , 96 , 97 , 98 , 99 , 100 , 101 , 102 , 103 , 104 , 105 , 106 , 107 , 108 , 109 , 110 , 111 , 112 , 113 , 114 , 115 , 116 ,…”

The assessment of the environmental quality of a sensitive karst aquatic system under the centuries-long anthropogenic influence of the coal mining industry is important for both improving the quality of water resources and protecting aquatic wildlife and human health. In this study, we investigated the anthropogenic impact on the aquatic environment of the upper and middle course of the Raša River through the analysis of a suite of metal(loid)s in three aquatic compartments (water, sediment, fish) using inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). Concentrations of inorganic constituents in water were low, while the chemical composition of stream sediments mainly reflected the geological background of the area, indicating the origin of metal(loid)s from predominantly natural sources. Although comparison with PEC-Q values indicated that existing sediment quality conditions could pose a threat to benthic organisms with regard to Cr and Ni, the constant vertical profiles of these elements suggested their natural origin from the weathering of flysch. Element levels in the muscle of targeted fish species were in accordance with the values typical for low-contaminated freshwater systems, while levels of Cd, Pb and Hg were mostly below the European regulatory limits for toxic elements in foods, indicating that the low concentrations of most contaminants in muscles of fish from the Raša River do not present a risk to humans or other consumers. The obtained data indicated a generally low contamination status of the western part of the Raša River basin with regard to the analyzed inorganic elements.

“…The study postulates that oxidative stress is responsible for a decline in the biomarker of superoxide dismutase (SOD) within the organism. In a recent study conducted by Pastorino et al (2021), the researchers investigated the impact of cerium (Ce), scandium (Sc), neodymium (Nd), lanthanum (La), yttrium (Y), and praseodymium (Pr) on Barbus balcanicus. The ndings of their research indicated that the levels of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione S-transferase (GST) were observed to be elevated in the gills of the sh species under investigation.…”

The continuous development of industry and industry drives people to seek new resources, and for this purpose, the usage areas of Rare Earth Elements (REE), whose usage areas are increasing day by day, are increasing rapidly. Increasing concentrations of REEs as a result of increased use create pollution in the environment and harm living organisms. This pollution interacts with increasing temperature and causes more negative synergistic effects of the pollutant in the environment and the living body. In this study, sublethal concentration values were determined by literature review and the concentration value was determined as 125 mg/L. It is aimed to investigate some oxidative stress and antioxidant responses of Terbium, Lanthanum, Gadolinium and Praseodymium REEs in Dreissena polymorpha at 125 mg/L concentration at 3 different temperatures (16, 18, 20 0C) with biomarkers. For this purpose, a 24-hour and 96-hour trial design was created and 7 D. polymorpha were used in each trial group, and the application experiments were carried out in 3 repetitions. The samples, whose trial phase was finished, were kept at -80 degrees until analysis. In this study, Superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) enzyme activities and gulutathion (GSH) and Thiobarbituric acid (TBARS) level biomarker responses were determined with ELISA test microplate reader. CAYMAN brand SOD (Catalog No 706002), CAT Catalog No 707002) and GPx (Catalog No 703102), GSH (Catalog No 703002) and TBARS (Catalog No 10009055) were used in the study. According to the study data, statistically significant decreases were observed in SOD and CAT activities in the oxidative stress responses of REEs on D. polymorpha with increasing temperature, while there was no significant change in GPx activities. It was determined that there were increases in TBARS levels and decreases in GSH levels.
