Bioaccumulation and biochemical responses in the peppery furrow shell Scrobicularia plana exposed to a pharmaceutical cocktail at sub-lethal concentrations

Pharmaceutical drugs in the aquatic medium may pose significant risk to non-target organisms.In this study, the potential toxicity of a mixture of three compounds commonly detected in marine waters (ibuprofen, ciprofloxacin and flumequine) was assessed, by studying bioaccumulation, oxidative stress and neurotoxicity parameters (catalase CAT, supero
