Original Abstract

A large amount of new substances with unknown environmental effect are daily produced and used. Many of them are intently or accidentally released and deposited into the environment. In dependence on their chemical and physical properties they could undergo different transport and degradation mechanisms. Consequently these substances themselves, or their degradation products or metabolites may affect different types of organisms, as well as humans. For this reason, the needs to solve the problems, associated with pollution of all environmental compartments are growing. One of the ways how to protect the environment from the effects of chemicals is ecotoxicity testing before releasing to use. In this study possible impact of formaldehyde resins, which are produced for commercial use, on some representatives of aquatic organisms were evaluated.
