Copaja Castillo, Sylvia; Mauro, Lidia; Vega Retter, Caren; Véliz Baeza, David (Soc Chilena Química, 2020)We studied the adsorption-desorption of Cu, Mn, Pb and Zn in Maipo river basin, one of the most perturbed rivers in Chile, and thus determined its tolerance to the addition of these metals into the sediments and the ...

Díaz Beneventi, Mauricio; Castro, Matías; Copaja Castillo, Sylvia; Guiliani Guerin, Nicolás (MDPI, 2018)Acidophile bacteria belonging to the Acidithiobacillus genus are pivotal players for the bioleaching of metallic values such as copper. Cell adherence to ores and biofilm formation, mediated by the production of extracellular ...

Vega Retter, Caren; Muñoz Rojas, Pablo; Rojas Hernández, Noemí; Copaja Castillo, Sylvia; Flores Prado, Luis; Véliz Baeza, David (Wiley, 2020)The presence of a dam disturbs river flow, which in turn directly affects the communities and evolutionary potential of riverine species. To detect the ecological effects of a dam on genetic diversity, genetic structure, ...

Copaja Castillo, Sylvia; Molina Paredes, María Ximena; Tessada, Roxana (Sociedad Chilena de Química, 2014)In recent years Chile has experienced a significant increase in mining activities, which has resulted in an increase in waste generation. The dispersion of these residues in the air, water and soil has led to negative ...

Copaja Castillo, Sylvia; Núñez S., Vesna; Véliz Baeza, David (Sociedad Chilena de Química, 2014)An ionic exchange high resolution liquid chromatography (IE-HPLC) method for determination of cations and anions in interstitial water of sediments, affluent and effluent of dams is proposed in this paper. Cations: Na+, ...

Vega Retter, Caren; Rojas Hernández, N.; Vila Pinto, Irma; Espejo, R.; Loyola, D. E.; Copaja Castillo, Sylvia; Briones, M.; Nolte, A. W.; Véliz Baeza, David (Nature Publishing Group, 2018)How organisms adapt to unfavorable environmental conditions by means of plasticity or selection of favorable genetic variants is a central issue in evolutionary biology. In the Maipo River basin, the fish Basilichthys ...

Copaja Castillo, Sylvia; Muñoz, G. S.; Núñez, V. R.; Pérez, C.; Vila Pinto, Irma; Véliz Baeza, David (Springer, 2016)In order to determine the effect of a dam on metal concentrations in riverine fish species, we studied fish inhabiting the influent (Cachapoal River) and effluent (Rapel River) of the Rapel Reservoir in central Chile. Heavy ...

Copaja Castillo, Sylvia; Núñez Soriano, Vesna; Muñoz Ponce, Gigliola; González Avila, Geissy; Vila Pinto, Irma; Véliz Baeza, David (Sociedad Chilena Química, 2016)RIVER flows have constant interaction between water and bed sediments; for this reason knowledge of the characteristics of the sediments is fundamental to understand water chemistry. This study determined the concentrations ...

Copaja Castillo, Sylvia; Pérez, C. A.; Vega Retter, Caren; Véliz Baeza, David (Springer, 2017)In this study, we analyze the concentration of ten metals in two freshwater fish-the benthic catfish Trichomycterus areolatus and the limnetic silverside Basilichthys microlepidotus-in order to detect possible accumulation ...

Copaja Castillo, Sylvia; Villarroel, Elisa; Bravo Vergara, Héctor; Pizarro, Lorena; Argandoña Cortés, Víctor Hugo (VERLAG Z NATURFORSCH, 2006-10)Contents of the hydroxamic acids 2,4-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoxazin-3-one (DIBOA), and 2,4-dihydroxy-7-methoxy-1,4-benzoxazin-3-one (DIMBOA) in leaves and roots of 14 cultivars of rye, Secale cereale L., were determined. Dynamics ...
-
Copaja Castillo, Sylvia; Tessada, Roxana M. (Sociedad Chilena de Química, 2020)Total concentrations of trace elements can provide fundamental information on the sediment contamination levels of the pollution indexes and the quality guidelines for sediment risk assessment. However, this information ...

Véliz Baeza, David; Rojas Hernández, Noemi; Copaja Castillo, Sylvia; Vega Retter, Caren (Wiley, 2020)Human activity has caused a deterioration in the health and population size of riverine species; thus, public policies have been implemented to mitigate the anthropogenic impacts of water use, watercourse transformation, ...
