Recent Trends in Marine Toxicological Assessment

Marine pollution is an escalating global concern, with growing awareness of its severe impact on the world's oceans. Rapid industrialization and intensified human activities have significantly elevated pollution levels, posing a serious threat to marine ecosystems and biodiversity. This book addresses these critical environmental issues by focusing on advanced methodologies for detecting and assessing marine pollutants. It provides a comprehensive overview of the current state of marine toxicology, emphasizing the importance of innovative approaches to protect ocean health and ensure sustainable marine environments.
Combining expert contributions worldwide, this book explores the latest developments in marine toxicological assessment. It begins with discussing the sampling methodologies used for analysing legacy and emerging pollutants in aquatic environments, highlighting the distribution and concentration of these pollutants and their impacts on marine life. The book also introduces the adverse outcome pathway (AOP) framework for microscale toxicity testing, which evaluates the effects of pollutants at various biological levels. In addition, it examines in silico techniques and the Toxicology in the 21st Century (Tox21) concept, which employs a comprehensive approach beyond traditional quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) methods. These advanced techniques are essential for predicting ecotoxicological impacts and ensuring chemical safety in marine ecosystems.
"Recent Trends in Marine Toxicological Assessment" is designed for a diverse audience, including students, research scholars, and policymakers in environmental science, marine chemistry, marine biology, and biotechnology. It is an invaluable resource for those seeking to enhance their understanding of marine pollution, toxicological assessment, and the latest methods for monitoring and mitigating the impact of pollutants. This book will assist policymakers and environmental managers develop effective strategies to combat marine pollution and protect ocean health. By integrating advanced scientific techniques with practical applications, this book aims to support ongoing efforts to preserve marine ecosystems and promote sustainable practices.
