Funded Activity Summary

Coenzyme Q as a measure of environmental stress in aquatic ecosystems. Australia's marine and freshwater water resources including high profile regions such as the Great Barrier Reef and the Murray-Darling River system are under increasing threat. This project is significant as it aims to provide a rapid tool to quantify low-level impacts in aquatic systems and provide a novel and accurate early-warning-system of stress within aquatic environments. Through the innovative development of an assay system from proven biomedical technologies it will be possible to deliver a significant community benefit by providing an early warning mechanism for the combined effects of urban and industrial impacts on our invaluable marine and freshwater resources.
