Titolo: The implementation of molecular biomarkers for the determination of the ecological status in transitional environments

Abstract:
The release of potentially toxic elements (PTEs) to the environment may influence negatively the ecosystem health, which often limits and sometimes disqualifies the ecosystem biodiversity. As a matter of fact the increasing concentration and distribution of PTEs in the ecosystem by mismanagement of industrial activities, overuse of agrochemicals, and waste disposal are causing worldwide concern. This presentation will describe the developing of early warning tools, based on the different implementation of molecular biomarkers for the assessment and monitoring of ecological status in response to PTEs in transitional environments.
