Developing behavioural ecotoxicology assessment methods in the tropical marine amphipod, Parhyale hawaiensis: A study with benzo[a]pyrene (BaP).

Toxicant-induced behavioural changes provide important insights into environmental toxicity, particularly in vulnerable tropical marine habitats. However, ecotoxicological knowledge of organisms in these environments is insufficient. We aimed to develop innovative and cost-effective ecotoxicology methods using Parhyale hawaiensis as a tropical model organism.
