The GLANISTOX project aims to improve the monitoring of chemical contamination in inland aquatic environments by employing an innovative approach: the study of a top predator, the wels catfish, as an integrated indicator of pollution and the transfer of contaminants within food chains.
Led by Damien Banas (L2A) and Olivier Cardoso (French Biodiversity Agency), this project lies at the intersection of environmental research, ecotoxicological risk assessment and food safety issues relating to products derived from aquatic environments.
The project brings together a scientific consortium comprising the University of Lorraine (L2A), ONIRIS (LABERCA), INRAE (UMR ECOBIOP) and the French Office for Biodiversity, ensuring complementarity between environmental ecology, chemical analysis and risk assessment for the food chain.
