Predicting the Bioconcentration Factor in Fish from Molecular Structures

open access: yesToxics, 2022
The bioconcentration factor (BCF) is one of the metrics used to evaluate the potential of a substance to bioaccumulate into aquatic organisms. In this work, linear and non-linear regression QSARs were developed for the prediction of log BCF using ...

Author Guide for Addressing Animal Methods Bias in Publishing

open access: yesAdvanced Science, 2023
There is growing recognition that animal methods bias, a preference for animal‐based methods where they are not necessary or where nonanimal‐based methods may already be suitable, can impact the likelihood or timeliness of a manuscript being accepted for

QSAR Models for the Prediction of Dietary Biomagnification Factor in Fish

open access: yesToxics, 2023
Xenobiotics released in the environment can be taken up by aquatic and terrestrial organisms and can accumulate at higher concentrations through the trophic chain.

Predicting toxicity of chemicals: software beats animal testing

open access: yesEFSA Journal, 2019
We created earlier a large machine‐readable database of 10,000 chemicals and 800,000 associated studies by natural language processing of the public parts of Registration, Evaluation, Authorisation and Restriction of Chemicals (REACH) registrations until

First Organoid Intelligence (OI) workshop to form an OI community

open access: yesFrontiers in Artificial Intelligence, 2023
The brain is arguably the most powerful computation system known. It is extremely efficient in processing large amounts of information and can discern signals from noise, adapt, and filter faulty information all while running on only 20 watts of power ...

Effect of sub-chronic exposure to cigarette smoke, electronic cigarette and waterpipe on human lung epithelial barrier function

open access: yesBMC Pulmonary Medicine, 2020
Background Taking into consideration a recent surge of a lung injury condition associated with electronic cigarette use, we devised an in vitro model of sub-chronic exposure of human bronchial epithelial cells (HBECs) in air-liquid interface, to ...

Automated measurement of the spontaneous tail coiling of zebrafish embryos as a sensitive behavior endpoint using a workflow in KNIME

open access: yesMethodsX, 2021
Neuroactive substances are the largest group of chemicals detected in European surface waters. Mixtures of neuroactive substances occurring at low concentrations can induce adverse neurological effects in humans and organisms in the environment ...
