Cytogenotoxic Effects of Fluopyram in Allium cepa Root Cells Involving Microtubule Disruption
ABSTRACT Fluopyram is a next‐generation fungicide widely used in agriculture; however, its persistence in soils and mobility toward aquatic systems have raised concerns regarding potential ecotoxicological risks. This study evaluated the cytogenotoxic effects of a commercial fluopyram‐based pesticide formulation on Allium cepa root meristem cells ...

Artemia salina Toxicity Assay: Standardization in a 24‐Well Microplate
ABSTRACT Bioassays with Artemia sp. are widely used in aquatic, environmental, and human toxicology as an initial tool to investigate the toxicity of plant extracts, isolated compounds, drugs, and products of natural or synthetic origin. These assays allow for the estimation of the median lethal concentration (LC50) and guide subsequent studies in ...

ABSTRACT Secondary microplastics (MPs) from single‐use consumer products are rapidly becoming one of the most persistent and widespread pollutants of our time. Freshwater systems act as early sinks for MPs where fragmentation and additive leaching expose aquatic life to a broad spectrum of toxic compounds.

Trace Levels of Triclosan May Affect Root Growth and Morphology in Cultivated Plants
ABSTRACT Triclosan (TCS) is a micropollutant frequently detected in biosolids applied to agricultural soils. In soil solution—where it is potentially bioavailable to roots—it occurs at residual concentrations (ng L−1). Nevertheless, the ecotoxicological implications of TCS exposure in agricultural crops at these concentrations are still not fully ...

ABSTRACT Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) pose significant ecological and human health risks due to their persistence, bioaccumulation, toxicity, and global distribution. Conventional remediation methods are often inadequate for achieving complete mineralization, demonstrating the need for advanced and substantial approaches.
