  • Assessment of the effects of paroxetine and zinc on crustaceans through integrated quantitative and taxon/functional tools with a focus on free-living marine copepods and amphipods. Allouche, Mohamed Lassoued, Amal Ishak, Sahar Boufahja, Fehmi Hamadi, Naoufel Ben Ali, Mohamed A M Elfalleh, Walid Badraoui, Riadh Bendif, Hamdi Hedfi, Amor Animals Amphipoda Copepoda Water Pollutants, Chemical Paroxetine Zinc Saudi Arabia This experiment examined the individual and combined effects of the antidepressant paroxetine and zinc on copepods and amphipods collected from Jeddah coast in Saudi Arabia. Various treatments were tested, revealing a decline in the abundance and diversity of both groups. Specific sensitivities were noted for copepods: Amphiascus parvulus was particularly affected by paroxetine, while Harpacticus littoralis, Harpacticus gracilis, and Heterolaophonte stroemii stroemii showed increased sensitivity to zinc. In amphipods, Microdeutopus algicola was most impacted across treatments, and Ampithoe ramondi and Nototropis massiliensis were more sensitive in mixed conditions. The study found significant synergistic effects when both pollutants were present, leading to greater reductions in meiofaunal abundance and diversity. The impacts noticed were further supported by in silico modeling focusing on both GH7 Family Cellobiohydrolase (4XNN) and Arginine Kinase wild type (6KY2) derived from Daphnia as a crustacean model.
