Overview

What is she best known for?

The fields of study she is best known for:

  • Ecology
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

Her primary areas of investigation include Biochemistry, Bioassay, Toxicity, Ecology and Environmental chemistry. Her Biochemistry research focuses on Cholinesterase and how it relates to Dichlorvos. Her biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Microplastics, Pharmacology and Acute toxicity.

Her work in Toxicity addresses issues such as Toxicology, which are connected to fields such as Zoology. The concepts of her Environmental chemistry study are interwoven with issues in Glutathione peroxidase and Glutathione. Her Acetylcholinesterase research focuses on subjects like In vivo, which are linked to Daphnia magna, Carbamate, Aché and Lactate dehydrogenase.

Her most cited work include:

  • Single and combined effects of microplastics and pyrene on juveniles (0+ group) of the common goby Pomatoschistus microps (Teleostei, Gobiidae) (317 citations)
  • Marine microplastic debris: An emerging issue for food security, food safety and human health. (299 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 her work throughout her whole career to date?

Her main research concerns Ecology, Toxicity, Environmental chemistry, Bioassay and Biochemistry. Her studies examine the connections between Toxicity and genetics, as well as such issues in Toxicology, with regards to Food science. She combines subjects such as Glutathione peroxidase, Glutathione, Glutathione reductase and Contamination with her study of Environmental chemistry.

Her research in Bioassay focuses on subjects like Microplastics, which are connected to Tetraselmis and Pollutant. Her work in Biochemistry tackles topics such as Cholinesterase which are related to areas like Palaemon serratus, Prawn, Acetylthiocholine and Organophosphate. Her Acetylcholinesterase study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Carbamate and In vivo.

She most often published in these fields:

  • Ecology (27.44%)
  • Toxicity (25.58%)
  • Environmental chemistry (20.93%)

What were the highlights of her more recent work (between 2018-2021)?

  • Microplastics (13.02%)
  • Contamination (7.44%)
  • Bioassay (20.47%)

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

Lúcia Guilhermino mainly investigates Microplastics, Contamination, Bioassay, Corbicula fluminea and Environmental chemistry. Her studies in Microplastics integrate themes in fields like Neurotoxicity and Marine ecosystem. Her Contamination research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Hazard, Wild species and Pollutant.

Her research in Bioassay intersects with topics in Toxicity and Animal science. As part of the same scientific family, she usually focuses on Corbicula fluminea, concentrating on Gene pool and intersecting with Ecology. Her Environmental chemistry study incorporates themes from Nanotoxicology and Tetraselmis.

Between 2018 and 2021, her most popular works were:

  • Microplastics in wild fish from North East Atlantic Ocean and its potential for causing neurotoxic effects, lipid oxidative damage, and human health risks associated with ingestion exposure (83 citations)
  • Microplastic pollution in commercial salt for human consumption: A review (59 citations)
  • Bisphenol A and its analogs in muscle and liver of fish from the North East Atlantic Ocean in relation to microplastic contamination. Exposure and risk to human consumers (32 citations)

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

  • Ecology
  • Enzyme
  • Biochemistry

Her main research concerns Microplastics, Pollution, Ecosystem, Contamination and Environmental protection. Her Microplastics study frequently intersects with other fields, such as Tetraselmis. Her Pollution study combines topics in areas such as Debris, Wild species and Pollutant.

The study incorporates disciplines such as Marine pollution, Plastic pollution and Wildlife in addition to Ecosystem. Her Contamination research integrates issues from Nanotoxicology, Toxicity, Bioassay and Environmental chemistry. Her Scomber study spans across into fields like Zoology, Neurotoxicity, Lipid peroxidation, Ingestion and Gill.
