Research interests
Field of research: genetic toxicology, ecotoxicology. Investigations of the toxic, genotoxic, and cytotoxic effects of individual chemicals, chemical mixtures, biological and physical factors, or their interactions with other (a)biotic factors in various aquatic organisms (fish, molluscs, etc.) as well as in their different developmental stages and tissues, using micronucleus and other nuclear abnormalities assay, single cell gel electrophoresis (and halo-assay), and physiological methods.
Evaluation of haematological and biochemical parameters (leukogram, erythrocytes, leukocytes, thrombocytes count, glucose concentration, haematocrit level, etc.) in aquatic organisms exposed to stressors. Planning and carrying out acute and chronic toxicity studies/tests on aquatic organisms (in vivo). Studies of environmental genotoxicity and cytotoxicity in various marine and freshwater ecosystems (in situ) using various cytogenetic techniques.
