The project will bring together Brazilian and UK expertise in ecotoxicology. The focus of the workplan is on characterising physiological and biomarker responses of temperate and tropical chironomid species to emerging chemical/particulate pollutants. The partnership has been formed between groups with a common interest in understanding the mechanisms of action and links to higher organisation level effects of chemicals using physiological and molecular tools. This innovations are developed with a view to improving the risk assessment and monitoring of emerging chemical pollutants in freshwater ecosystems, Initial exchanges have identified common research themes in developing stress response assays for invertebrate species. Initial contact by email and extended discussion has resulted in the development of a workplan focussed on this theme.

该项目将汇集巴西和英国生态毒理学专业知识。工作计划的重点在于表征温带和热带守流器物种对新兴的化学/颗粒物污染物的生理和生物标志物反应。该伙伴关系是在对使用生理和分子工具的更高组织水平效应的群体之间建立了共同兴趣的共同兴趣的。开发这些创新是为了改善淡水生态系统中新兴化学污染物的风险评估和监测，最初的交流已经确定了开发无脊椎动物的压力反应测定方面的共同研究主题。通过电子邮件和扩展讨论的初步联系已导致开发着专注于此主题的工作计划。
