1 Biomarkers in ecotoxicology 1
2 Biomarkers Classic definition: Biochemical, physiological or histological indicators of either exposure to or effects of, xenobiotic chamicals at the suborganismal or organismal level Nato workshop (1993): A biological response that can be related to an exposure to, or toxic effect of, an environmental chemical or chemicals Depledge (1993): A biolochemical, cellular, physiological or behavioural variation that can be measured in tissue or body fluid samples at the level of the whole organism (either individuals or populations) that provides evidence of exposure (exposure biomarkers) to and/or effects (health biomarkers) of one or morechemical pollutants 2
3 Health and stress Health (Bayne et al., 1985): The residual capacity of an organism to withstand stress. Stress (Brett 1958): A state produced by an environment or other factor which extends the adaptive response of an animal beyond the normal range, or which disturbs the normal functioning to such an extent that the chances of survival are significantly reduced Stressor (Lugo, 1981): A stressor is any condition or situation that causes a system to mobilise its resources and increase its energy expenditure. Stress is the response of the system to the stressor via this increase in energy expenditure. 3
4 The driving forces behind biomarker development The problems with chemical analysis What do we measure? Temporal fluctuations in exposure Sensitivity vs effect? Bioavalability? Proof of exposure Proof of effect Prediction of ecological effects 4
5 Sensory interference Chemical pollution - speciation - bioavailable residues Absorption Exposure / effect biomarkers Molecular responses Physiological responses Structural damage Effect / health biomarkers Predictive Impaired fitness Disturbed population and ecosystem stability Reactive 5
6 Biomarkers An ideal Health biomarker is sensitive to chemical stress and is irrefutably linked to the Darwinian fitness of the organism. Darwinian fitness is the combined relative probability of survival and rate of reproduction of the individual. An ideal Exposure biomarker is both sensitive and specific to exposure by a single chemical or group of chemicals. The ideal biomarker in ecotoxicology combines the properties of both types.
