Bioavailability and toxicity of heavy metals in the presence of natural organic matter
Kungolos, A.; Samaras, P.; Tsiridis, V.; Petala, M.; Sakellaropoulos, G. (2006)The effect of humic acids (HA) on the toxicity of copper, zinc and lead was investigated in this study, using the photobacterium Vibrio fischeri (Microtox test) as a test organism. The metal species and the complexation ... -
Comparison of several toxicity tests applied to complex wastewaters and mussel biomarkers in receiving waters
Okay, O. S.; Tolun, L.; Tüfekçi, V.; Karacik, B.; Kungolos, A.; Samaras, P.; Papadimitriou, C.; Petala, M.; Tsiridis, V. (2005)In this study, the complex wastewaters/effluents discharged to coastal regions of Turkey and Greece were sampled, and various toxicity tests were applied. The bioassays used included the assessment of the luminescence ... -
Ecotoxicological properties of wastewater treated using tertiary methods
Petala, M.; Samaras, P.; Zouboulis, A.; Kungolos, A.; Sakellaropoulos, G. (2006)The objective of this work was the examination of the efficiency of coagulation and ozonation processes for the production of reclaimed wastewater with low toxicity. Municipal secondary effluents were treated by FeCl 3, ... -
The effect of coagulation on the toxicity and mutagenicity of reclaimed municipal effluents
Petala, M.; Samaras, P.; Kungolos, A.; Zouboulis, A.; Papadopoulos, A.; Sakellaropoulos, G. P. (2006)The objectives of this work were the assessment of the effectiveness of coagulation on the reclamation of secondary effluents and the evaluation of the quality of reclaimed waters by the examination of their ecotoxic and ... -
Environmental hazard assessment of coal fly ashes using leaching and ecotoxicity tests
Tsiridis, V.; Petala, M.; Samaras, P.; Kungolos, A.; Sakellaropoulos, G. P. (2012)The environmental hazard of six coal fly ash samples collected from various coal incineration plants were examined in the present study, using various leaching tests along with physicochemical and ecotoxicological analyses. ... -
Hexavalent chromium release from lignite fly ash and related ecotoxic effects
Darakas, E.; Tsiridis, V.; Petala, M.; Kungolos, A. (2013)Hexavalent chromium Cr(VI) is a pollutant of immense concern due to its high mobility to water sources and highly toxic properties. In most cases, Cr(VI) could be released from lignite fly ash in aquatic environment when ... -
Influence of ozonation on the in vitro mutagenic and toxic potential of secondary effluents
Petala, M.; Samaras, P.; Zouboulis, A.; Kungolos, A.; Sakellaropoulos, G. P. (2008)Reclamation of municipal effluents by advanced treatment processes is an attractive perspective for facing certain water shortage problems. However, the application of tertiary techniques should be thoroughly examined for ... -
Interactive toxic effects of heavy metals and humic acids on Vibrio fischeri
Tsiridis, V.; Petala, M.; Samaras, P.; Hadjispyrou, S.; Sakellaropoulos, G.; Kungolos, A. (2006)The effect of humic acids (HAs) on the toxicity of copper, zinc, and lead was investigated using the photobacterium Vibrio fischeri (Microtox test) as a test organism. The effects of HAs on metal toxicity were evaluated ... -
Toxic properties of metals and organotin compounds and their interactions on Daphnia magna and Vibrio fischeri
Kungolos, A.; Hadjispyrou, S.; Petala, M.; Tsiridis, V.; Samaras, P.; Sakellaropoulos, G. P. (2004)In the present study toxicity tests were performed in order to determine the toxic properties of four organotin compounds and three heavy metals and to examine the interactive effects of binary metal mixtures on two different ...
