Environmentally Realistic Metal Mixture Concentration Impacts Early Development in Zebrafish Larvae

Environmental Toxicology, Volume 41, Issue 12, Page 1768-1780, December 2026.
ABSTRACT The dispersion of metals in the environment leads to the presence of metal mixtures in impacted ecosystems, but few studies have addressed their impact on early developmental processes in fish. Here, we investigated the effect of metal mixtures reported in the Doce River basin in Brazil, including Fe, Mn, and Cd, either singly or as a mixture ...

Defecation in preparation for ecdysis drives microplastic clearance in cricket nymphs

Physiological Entomology, Volume 51, Issue 4, Page 562-574, December 2026.
In preparation for ecdysis, cricket nymphs cease feeding and gradually clear their gut contents via frass production, which removes most ingested MPs from their digestive tract. Following exoskeletal moulting, the foregut lining, including any remaining MPs, is shed and excreted alongside frass approximately 6 h later.

Proto‐Panic Modulation by Caffeine‐Proteinoid Complexes

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 41, November 5, 2026.
Caffeine–proteinoid microspheres synthesized by thermal polymerization exhibit compartmentalized drug loading with encapsulation efficiencies of 61%–82% and triphasic release kinetics. Electrochemical monitoring reveals multi‐scale oscillatory dynamics consistent with chaotic and damped harmonic behavior, while Boolean logic operations demonstrate ...

Discrepancies Between Micro Versus Macroscale Viscoelastic Properties in a Microplastic‐Tissue Composite Model

Advanced Engineering Materials, Volume 28, Issue 21, 4 November 2026.
This study explores the discrepancies between bulk mechanics and spatial mapping in a tissue‐mimetic hydrogel model. Microplastic particles create localized stiff mechanical microenvironments that are detectable by cellular‐scale nanoindentation but leave bulk properties unchanged as measured by rheology.

Marine Algae‐Derived Starch and Polysaccharides for Sustainable Bioplastics: Processing, Properties, Environmental Performance, and Future Prospects

Engineering Reports, Volume 8, Issue 11, November 2026.
Marine algae‐derived starch represents a sustainable feedstock for biodegradable bioplastics due to its renewability, rapid growth, and minimal land and freshwater requirements. This review examines starch extraction, bioplastic synthesis, material properties, biodegradation behavior, environmental performance, applications, and commercialization ...
