Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Gene
  • Enzyme

His primary scientific interests are in Toxicity, Toxicology, Daphnia magna, Environmental chemistry and Ecology. His Toxicity research incorporates elements of Lipid peroxidation, Oxidative stress, Pesticide and Pharmacology. His Toxicology research incorporates themes from Atrazine, Enchytraeidae, Carbendazim, Acute toxicity and Andrology.

The concepts of his Daphnia magna study are interwoven with issues in Chlorpyrifos, EC50, Zinc, Cladocera and Daphnia. His Environmental chemistry study combines topics from a wide range of disciplines, such as Contamination, Bioassay, Cadmium and Botany. His Ecology research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Zoology and Acid mine drainage.

His most cited work include:

  • Interactions between effects of environmental chemicals and natural stressors: A review (471 citations)
  • Metal-based nanoparticles in soil: fate, behavior, and effects on soil invertebrates. (263 citations)
  • Acute effects of copper and mercury on the estuarine fish Pomatoschistus microps: linking biomarkers to behaviour. (230 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His scientific interests lie mostly in Environmental chemistry, Ecology, Toxicity, Ecotoxicology and Toxicology. His Environmental chemistry research includes elements of Oxidative stress, Contamination and Pollutant. Many of his studies involve connections with topics such as Zoology and Ecology.

Amadeu M.V.M. Soares studies Daphnia magna which is a part of Toxicity. His studies in Daphnia magna integrate themes in fields like Cladocera, Daphnia and Acute toxicity. He combines subjects such as Pesticide, Bioassay and Reproduction with his study of Toxicology.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental chemistry (29.53%)
  • Ecology (28.45%)
  • Toxicity (25.69%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Environmental chemistry (29.53%)
  • Toxicity (25.69%)
  • Oxidative stress (12.00%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

Amadeu M.V.M. Soares focuses on Environmental chemistry, Toxicity, Oxidative stress, Zoology and Antioxidant. His research in Environmental chemistry intersects with topics in Mytilus, Seawater and Pollutant. His Toxicity research is mostly focused on the topic Daphnia magna.

His Oxidative stress research includes themes of Neurotoxicity, Ruditapes and Abiotic component. In his study, Hatching and Freshwater ecosystem is inextricably linked to Larva, which falls within the broad field of Zoology. His work deals with themes such as Invertebrate and Chironomus riparius, which intersect with Ecotoxicology.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Effects of nanoplastics on Mytilus galloprovincialis after individual and combined exposure with carbamazepine. (100 citations)
  • Rethinking and optimising plastic waste management under COVID-19 pandemic: Policy solutions based on redesign and reduction of single-use plastics and personal protective equipment. (76 citations)
  • Biochemical responses and accumulation patterns of Mytilus galloprovincialis exposed to thermal stress and Arsenic contamination. (45 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Ecology
  • Gene
  • Enzyme

Amadeu M.V.M. Soares mainly focuses on Oxidative stress, Environmental chemistry, Toxicity, Mytilus and Antioxidant. Amadeu M.V.M. Soares has included themes like Intertidal zone, Ruditapes and Gill in his Oxidative stress study. His work carried out in the field of Environmental chemistry brings together such families of science as Salinity, Contamination, Biota, Arsenic and Seawater.

His Toxicity study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Chironomus riparius, Toxicology, Pharmacology and Biochemistry. His studies deal with areas such as Lemna minor and Ecotoxicity as well as Toxicology. The study incorporates disciplines such as Planarian, Ecotoxicology and Genotoxicity in addition to Pharmacology.
