The health and stability of our ecosystems are of utmost importance for the well-being of both human and non-human life on Earth. Unfortunately, human activities have led to the introduction of various chemical contaminants into the environment, which can have detrimental effects on the delicate balance of ecosystems. The field of ecotoxicology aims to understand the influence of these chemical contaminants on ecological systems and to assess their potential risks. Ecotoxicology is a multidisciplinary science that combines elements of ecology, toxicology, chemistry and environmental science. It focuses on the study of the effects of toxic substances on organisms, populations, communities and ecosystems as a whole. Chemical contaminants can include pesticides, heavy metals, pharmaceuticals, industrial pollutants and many other substances that find their way into the environment through human activities.
