The increasing levels of environmental pollutants in combination with global climate change has been a matter of great concern due to the negative impacts caused to natural environments. Studies on these topics are important to predict the environmental risks of pollutants, enabling decision-making towards the development of more efficient laws for the protection and preservation of natural environments against...

Ocean acidification is a result of the decrease in the pH of marine water, caused mainly by the increase in CO2 released in the atmosphere and its consequent dissolution in seawater. These changes can be dramatic for marine organisms especially for oysters Crassostrea gasar if other stressors such as xenobiotics are present. The effect of pH changes (6.5, 7.0 and 8.2) was assessed on the transcript levels of bi...
