DOI: 10.1002/mbo3.1281
Abstract: Gray seals (Halichoerus grypus) can act as sentinel species reflecting the condition of the environment they inhabit. Our previous research identified strains of pathogenic Campylobacter and Salmonella, originating from both human and agricultural animal hosts,… read more here.

Daphnia as a Sentinel Species for Environmental Health Protection: A Perspective on Biomonitoring and Bioremediation of Chemical Pollution
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2022 at "Environmental Science & Technology"
DOI: 10.1021/acs.est.2c01799
Abstract: Despite available technology and the knowledge that chemical pollution damages human and ecosystem health, chemical pollution remains rampant, ineffectively monitored, rarely prevented, and only occasionally mitigated. We present a framework that helps address current major… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/e27050486
Abstract: How can the shape of biodiversity inform us about cities’ ecoclimatic fitness and guide their development? Can we use species as the harbingers of climatic extremes? Eco-climatically sensitive species carry information about hydroclimatic change in… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/proteomes12020010
Abstract: Zebra mussel (ZM), Dreissena polymorpha, commonly used as a sentinel species in freshwater biomonitoring, is now in competition for habitat with quagga mussel (QM), Dreissena rostriformis bugensis. This raises the question of the quagga mussel’s… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/toxins13020168
Abstract: Shellfish toxin monitoring programs often use mussels as the sentinel species to represent risk in other bivalve shellfish species. Studies have examined accumulation and depuration rates in various species, but little information is available to… read more here.
