Results of modeling of pharmaceuticals mixtures toxicity with deviation ratio and best-fit functions models using Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast as model organism
Open Research DataThe research was concerned with verifying the impact of binary mixtures of nine pharmaceuticals against a selected organism, i.e., the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. S cerevisiae is used as a model organism in the monitoring of endocrine disruptors in environmental and reference samples in Xenometrix® systems - XenoScreen®. Tested pharmaceuticals,...

Results of electrical voltage measurements in reactors - part 1
Open Research DataResults of electric voltage measurements in six reactors using various plantings. These are the results of the project: Integrated approach 3M (Macrophytes-Microbiome-Modelling) to elucidate mechanisms of bioenergy production and micropollutants transformation in Floating Treatment Wetlands combined with Microbial Fuel Cells.

The estrogenicity of wastewater samples.
Open Research DataThe principle of operation of the kit is based on the fact that the tested sample with endocrine activity (containing compounds capable of binding to the human estrogen receptor α, hERα) releases the fluorescently labeled ligand (FluormoneTM ES2) from the receptor-ligand complex, which results in a reduction of the polarization value fluorescence. The...

The PolarScreen™ Estrogen Receptor Competitor Assays for determination of estradiol equivalent concentrations (EEQs) in sewage and drinking water samples.
Open Research DataMunicipal waste waters are one of the main sources of estrogenic compounds in aquatic environments. Feminization of fish downstream of Waste Water Treatment Plants (WWTPs) discharges has been observed worldwide. Some estrogenic chemicals, particularly steroid estrogens, are known to cause disruption of the endocrine system of fishes and abnormalities...
