Among negative impacts in aquaculture, there are organic wastes with high loads of total solids, turbidity and nutrients, which must be treated. The present study aims to ass…
Herbicides are widely used in agriculture, known as diffuse sources of pollution of surface water and groundwater. The impact of this use on water quality, however, is little known and has been the subject of studies around the world. It has already been observed mutagenic and genotoxic effects in fish exposed to herbicides. The predominant crop in the state of Sao Paulo is the sugarcane,…
