Extending the Concept of Predicting Fish Acute Toxicity In Vitro to the Intestinal Cell Line RTgutGC

Kristin Schirmer, Hannah Inka Schug, Jenny Maner

Testing chemicals for fish acute toxicity is a legal requirement in many countries as part of environmental risk assessment. To reduce the number of fish used, substantial efforts have been focused on alternative approaches. Prominently, the cell viability ...

Silver nanoparticles inhibit fish gill cell proliferation in protein-free culture medium

Kristin Schirmer, Laura Sigg, Renata Behra, Yang Yue

While short-term exposures of vertebrate cells, such as from fish, can be performed in defined, serum-free media, long-term cultures generally require addition of growth factors and proteins, normally supplied with a serum supplement. However, proteins are ...

Toxicity of silver nanoparticles to a fish gill cell line: Role of medium composition

Kristin Schirmer, Laura Sigg, Renata Behra, Yang Yue

In aqueous solutions, silver nanoparticle (AgNP) behavior is affected by a variety of factors which lead to altered AgNP size and toxicity. Our research aims to explore the effect of media composition on citrate-coated AgNP (cit-AgNP) behavior and toxicity ...

Fish behavior during hydropeaking in a channel equipped with a lateral shelter

Anton Schleiss, Jean-Marc Ribi

In the framework of a research project focusing on mitigation measures for hydropeaking, a lateral embayment at the channel bank is studied as a fish refuge. Systematic experiments with different refuge configurations were carried out. The basic configurat ...

Methodology for demonstrating and measuring the photocytotoxicity of fluoranthene to fish cells in culture

Kristin Schirmer

Methodology was developed for quantifying the photocytotoxicity of fluoranthene to a gill cell line from rainbow trout for future use in screening polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons for their relative photocytotoxicity to fish. Solubilization in a modified c ...
