Aquatic toxicology examines the effects of toxic substances on aquatic organisms, from microorganisms to fish and marine mammals. It studies how pollutants enter and move through aquatic ecosystems, as well as their short- and long-term impacts. Common contaminants include heavy metals, pesticides, pharmaceuticals, and microplastics. Research includes laboratory bioassays, field monitoring, and ecological modeling to understand exposure pathways and ecological risks. Aquatic toxicology also informs environmental regulations, water quality standards, and pollution control strategies. Preserving aquatic health is essential for biodiversity, fisheries, and human water resources.
