Developmental and Behavioral Effects of Arsenobetaine in Zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Arsenobetaine (AsB) is a prevalent organoarsenical in aquatic environments and is generally regarded as nontoxic. Despite its widespread occurrence, the developmental and neurobehavioral toxicity of AsB has not been systematically investigated.

Cellular Toxicity of Short‐ and Long‐Term Exposures to Polystyrene Nanoplastics and Microplastics in Fish Skin Cell Derived From Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas)

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ubiquitous presence of microplastics and nanoplastics (MNPs) is raising concerns about their impact on the health of humans and other living organisms. Due to its tiny size, this particle can accumulate and circulate in the body after uptake, resulting in a variety of harmful outcomes on the organism, such as increased oxidative stress and

Determination of Bisphenol Compounds and the Bioaccumulation after Co-Exposure with Polyethylene Microplastics in Zebrafish

Toxics
Knowledge regarding the combined toxicity mechanism of bisphenol compounds and microplastics (MPs) on organisms remains limited. In this study, we first developed an accurate and sensitive method to simultaneously quantify two bisphenol compounds and ...

Toll‐Like Receptors in the Mechanism of Hexabromocyclododecane‐Induced Production of Pro‐Inflammatory Cytokines

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD), a brominated flame retardant, has raised increasing health concerns due to its bioaccumulation in human tissues and its ability to induce proinflammatory cytokines. Interleukin‐1β (IL‐1β), interleukin‐6 (IL‐6), and tumor necrosis factor‐α (TNF‐α) are major mediators of inflammation, and their chronic elevation ...

Bioaccumulation and ecotoxicity study of perfluorinated chemicals

, 2014
Perfluorinated chemicals (PFCs) are newly emerged group of environmental contaminants. Knowledge on the bioaccumulation and ecotoxicological behaviors of PFCs remains scarce. In the present study, the bioaccumulation process and environmental toxicity of

Metal Accumulation, Liver Histopathology, and Human Health Risk Assessment Across Different Trophic Guilds in a Mining‐Affected Neotropical River

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metal pollution in aquatic environments represents a recurring global concern; however, traditional paradigms often assume linear bioaccumulation patterns that may fail under catastrophic contamination scenarios. This study evaluated metal concentrations in water, sediment, and tissues of 10 fish species from different trophic guilds in the ...

Ionic liquids: structure–toxicity relationships, predictive toxicology, and sustainable design

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract Ionic liquids (ILs) have often been described as green alternatives to conventional solvents because of their negligible vapor pressure and highly tunable properties. However, low volatility does not necessarily translate into environmental safety, as their biological and ecological effects are strongly influenced by molecular structure.

Microplastics in the menu of Mediterranean zooplankton: Insights from the feeding response of the calanoid copepod Centropages typicus

Marine Ecology, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract Microplastic input into the ocean represents an increasing threat to marine biota and may endanger the functioning of marine ecosystems, especially in semi‐enclosed basins, such as the Mediterranean Sea. The size spectrum of microplastics overlaps with that of nano‐microplankton (2–200 μm), thus potentially misleading suspension‐feeding ...
