PASSIVE-SAMPLER EMPLOYED FOR ANTIFOULING BOOSTER BIOCIDES ANALYSES IN SEAWATER [PDF]

Química Nova
The antifouling booster biocides are frequently studied for toxic effects on the aquatic ecosystems. The present investigation proposes passive silicone rubber samplers as a collection method for biocides, once these methods can concentrate substances in

Occupational Allergic Contact Dermatitis From Over‐Ear Headphones: Chemical Analysis Reveals Octylisothiazolinone and Other Potential Skin Sensitizers

Contact Dermatitis, Volume 95, Issue 6, Page 557-565, December 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Over‐ear headphones are a growing source of allergic contact dermatitis (ACD). Identifying well‐known and new culprit sensitizers in such products is challenging because of a lack of labelling and limited cooperation from manufacturers.

Adverse Effect of Antifouling Compounds on the Reproductive Mechanisms of the Ascidian Ciona intestinalis

Marine Drugs, 2013
Fertilization and embryo development that occur in sea water are sensitive to xenobiotics from anthropogenic sources. In this work, we evaluated the influence of two antifouling biocides, tributyltin (TBT) and diuron, on the reproductive mechanisms of ...

Zinc Oxide and Graphitic Carbon Nitride/ZnO Nanocomposites in Food Safety and Preservation: Synthesis, Antimicrobial Mechanisms, and Application Prospects

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 11, November 2026.
ZnO and g‐C3N4/ZnO S‐scheme heterojunctions are synthesized via conventional, green, and biogenic routes. They combat foodborne pathogens and degrade mycotoxins through ROS generation, Zn2+ release, and membrane disruption, enabling antimicrobial packaging, photocatalytic decontamination, and nanobiosensing. However, migration, toxicity, and regulatory

Hybrid Emulsion‐Dispersion (HED) Polymerization Enables One‐Pot Synthesis of Functional Janus Nanoparticles

Small, Volume 22, Issue 61, 2 November 2026.
A hybrid emulsion‐dispersion (HED) polymerization strategy enables one‐pot synthesis of functional Janus nanoparticles without seed preparation or multistep processing. Controlled morphology and surface stratification produce rechargeable antimicrobial coatings with durable activity. HED provides a simple and scalable route toward functional asymmetric

Neglected but Not Harmless: Characterising Nonantibiotic Antimicrobial Use in Small Animal Practices in Colombia

Veterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 6, November 2026.
Widely used but poorly documented, nonantibiotic antimicrobials represent an overlooked gap in veterinary practice. Frequent prescribing alongside suboptimal dosing and incomplete records underscores the need to formally include NAAs in antimicrobial stewardship and One Health surveillance efforts.

Environmental Drivers of Nontuberculous Mycobacteria in Tropical Freshwater Systems

Environmental Microbiology, Volume 28, Issue 11, November 2026.
In tropical freshwater ecosystems, nontuberculous mycobacterial diversity and distribution is mainly driven by habitat and sample type, and local environmental factors such as sediment texture and depth. These findings highlight the importance of microhabitat conditions over broad biogeographic patterns in shaping mycobacterial communities.

AGRICULTURE IN A SOCIALIST CITY: Towards an Alter‐Urban Political Ecology

International Journal of Urban and Regional Research, Volume 50, Issue 6, Page 1410-1428, November 2026.
Abstract Urban political ecology has developed as a critique of capitalist urbanization. This article develops the concept of alter‐urban political ecology to define urban environments emerging not from capitalist urbanization but from efforts to transform it. Drawing on archival research and ethnographic fieldwork in five urban farms in socialist Cuba,

Identification of developmental and reproductive toxicity of biocides in consumer products using ToxCast bioassays data and machine learning models

Environment International
Developmental and reproductive toxicity (DART) is a critical regulatory endpoint for protecting human health from chemical exposure. Biocides in consumer products are widely encountered in daily life, yet DART assessments often require substantial animal
