Citizen-led sampling to monitor phosphate levels in freshwater environments using a simple paper microfluidic device (2021)
Journal Article
Richardson, S., Iles, A., Rotchell, J. M., Charlson, T., Hanson, A., Lorch, M., & Pamme, N. (2021). Citizen-led sampling to monitor phosphate levels in freshwater environments using a simple paper microfluidic device. PLoS ONE, 16(12), Article e0260102. https://doi.org/10.1371/journal.pone.0260102

Contamination of waterways is of increasing concern, with recent studies demonstrating elevated levels of antibiotics, antidepressants, household, agricultural and industrial chemicals in freshwater systems. Thus, there is a growing demand for method... Read More about Citizen-led sampling to monitor phosphate levels in freshwater environments using a simple paper microfluidic device.

Journal Article
Chapman, E., Meichanetzoglou, A., Boa, A. N., Hetjens, H., Faetsch, S., Teuchies, J., Höss, S., Moore, D., Bervoets, L., Kay, P., Heise, S., Walker, P., & Rotchell, J. M. (2021). The Uptake of Sporopollenin Exine Capsules and Associated Bioavailability of Adsorbed Oestradiol in Selected Aquatic Invertebrates. Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 107, 876–882. https://doi.org/10.1007/s00128-021-03364-8

Lycopodium clavatum sporopollenin exine capsules (SpECs) are known to both adsorb and absorb chemicals. The aim of the present work was to determine whether oestradiol (E2) is ‘bioavailable’ to bioindicator species, either pre-adsorbed to, or in the...

Consequences of combined exposure to thermal stress and the plasticiser DEHP in Mytilus spp. differ by sex (2021)
Journal Article
Mincarelli, L. F., Rotchell, J. M., Chapman, E. C., Turner, A. P., & Wollenberg Valero, K. C. (2021). Consequences of combined exposure to thermal stress and the plasticiser DEHP in Mytilus spp. differ by sex. Marine pollution bulletin, 170, Article 112624. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.marpolbul.2021.112624

Little is known about the combined effect of environmental factors and contaminants on commercially important marine species, and whether this effect differs by sex. In this study, blue mussels were exposed for seven days to both single and combined...
