Bifenthrin Under Scrutiny: Revisiting Toxicological Evidence Amid Regulatory Gaps

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite growing health concerns, bifenthrin (BF) remains widely used for controlling agricultural and residential pests. However, different perspectives on its toxicological profile and regulatory framework warrant a revisit and update on BF regulation towards a robust risk‐safety assessment.

Categorization of species as native or nonnative using DNA sequence signatures without a complete reference library. [PDF]

, 2019
New genetic diagnostic approaches have greatly aided efforts to document global biodiversity and improve biosecurity. This is especially true for organismal groups in which species diversity has been underestimated historically due to difficulties ...

Recognition of Trace Element Contamination Using Ficus macrophylla Leaves in Urban Environment [PDF]

, 2020
Urban areas are characterized by numerous pollutants emitted by anthropic sources both in the form of solid and gaseous particulates. Biomonitoring is an easy, economical, and accessible approach for the determination of atmospheric pollutants.

Comparative Proteomics of Salinity Stress Responses in Fish and Aquatic Invertebrates

PROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fluctuating salinity is symptomatic of climate change challenging aquatic species. The melting of polar ice, rising sea levels, coastal surface and groundwater salinization, and increased evaporation in arid habitats alter salinity worldwide. Moreover, the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events such as rainstorms and floods increase,

Hyperspectral imagery, LiDAR point clouds, and environmental DNA to assess land‐water linkage of biodiversity across aquatic functional feeding groups

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Functional feeding groups (FFGs) are key components sustaining ecosystem functioning in riverine ecosystems. In this study, we conducted an airborne imaging spectroscopy campaign and a systematic environmental DNA (eDNA) river water sampling in a 740‐km2 mountainous catchment, combined with light detection and ranging (LiDAR) point clouds, to obtain ...

Ecological integrity of boreal streams [PDF]

, 2007
Running waters provide a number of services for humans, such as drinking water and food resources and many freshwater animals are confined and specialised to this environment.

Assessing group size and the demographic composition of a canopy‐dwelling primate, the northern muriqui (Brachyteles hypoxanthus), using arboreal camera trapping and genetic tagging

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We combined arboreal camera trapping and non‐invasive genetic tagging to estimate group size in the critically endangered northern muriqui (Brachyteles hypoxanthus) in Brazil's Atlantic Forest. Both methods provided complementary insights into group size and demographic structure, while differing in their cost‐effectiveness and sampling constraints ...

The Population Status of Cardііdae (Bіvalvіa) as a Bioindicator for Water Quality in the North-western Part of the Sea of Azov [PDF]

, 2016
An attempt was made to evaluate the suitability of using mollusc populations from the family Cardiidae as a biological indicator to monitor ecological water quality in the north-western part of the Sea of Azov.
