Organ-specific biotransformation in salmonids: Insight into intrinsic enzyme activity and biotransformation of three micropollutants
Kristin Schirmer, Juliane Hollender
Aquatic ecosystems continue to be threatened by chemical pollution. To what extent organisms are able to cope with chemical exposure depends on their ability to display mechanisms of defense across different organs. Among these mechanisms, biotransformatio ...
Elsevier2024Assessing the universality of Habitat Suitability Indexes (HSI) for brown trout (Salmo trutta L.) In relation to ecohydraulic variables
Giovanni De Cesare, Paolo Perona, Giulio Calvani, Francesca Padoan
The Habitat Suitability Index (HSI) is a quantitative index that determines the capacity of a given area to meet habitat requirements for a specific species with respect to given variables. The degree of universality of this index is not well understood ye ...
2024Two-generation common-garden experiment reveals a strong genetic contribution to migration tendency in brown trout (Salmo trutta)
Many salmonids, including brown trout (Salmo trutta), demonstrate alternative migration strategies under different environmental conditions, and as such, they are assumed to be predominantly facultative. Through experimental breeding for two generations, w ...
CANADIAN SCIENCE PUBLISHING2023Evaluation of tire tread particle toxicity to fish using rainbow trout cell lines
Kristin Schirmer, Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Benoît Jean Dominique Ferrari, Thibault Béranger Masset, Gabrielle Léger
Tire and road wear particles (TRWP) resulting from tire abrasion while driving raise concerns due to their potential contribution to aquatic toxicity. Our study aimed to assess cryogenically milled tire tread (CMTT) particle toxicity, used as a proxy for T ...
2023The Bioaccumulation of Ionizable Organic Compounds in Fish Cell Lines
Bioaccumulation is defined as the enrichment of a compound in an organism relative to the surrounding water or its food, and is an important endpoint in chemical risk assessment. Under laboratory conditions, bioaccumulation is measured as bioconcentration ...

Kristin Schirmer, Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Dominique Grandjean, Benoît Jean Dominique Ferrari, Thibault Béranger Masset, Luke Christopher Harris
Tire and road wear particles (TRWP) account for an important part of the polymer particles released into the environment. There are scientific knowledge gaps as to the potential bioaccessibility of chemicals associated with TRWP to aquatic organisms. This ...

Giovanni De Cesare, Christian Mörtl, Robin Schroff
In einer Restwasserstrecke der Saane wurde 2016 zur Sanierung der kolmatierten Gewässersohle und zur Aufwertung der Lebensräume ein künstliches Hochwasser ausgelöst und mit einer Sedimentzugabe gekoppelt. Die mittelfristigen Wirkungen der Sedimentzugabe wu ...
