Organic and Inorganic Pollutants, Oxidative Stress Biomarkers, and Electrophoretic Protein Profiles in an Endangered Thresher Shark (Alopias vulpinus) From Southeastern Brazil: A Case Study

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A comprehensive screening of different environmental contaminants (total metals, thermostable metal fractions associated with detoxification, and persistent organic pollutants) was conducted in an endangered common thresher shark (Alopias vulpinus ) individual incidentally captured in southeastern Brazil.

Developmental Defect of Enamel in Permanent Teeth Associated With Chronic Endodontic Abscess in Deciduous Teeth: A Retrospective Study

Clinical and Experimental Dental Research
Objectives Destructive carious lesions on deciduous teeth often result in dental abscesses. Sometimes, the exudative process may extend to the dental follicle of the permanent tooth, leading to various types of consequences. This study primarily seeks to

Paternal p,p′-DDE exposure and pre-pubertal high-fat diet increases the susceptibility to fertility impairment and sperm Igf2 DMR2 hypo-methylation in male offspring

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
The hypothesis of paternal origins of health and disease (POHaD) indicates that paternal exposure to adverse environment could alter the epigenetic modification in germ line, increasing the disease susceptibility in offspring or even in subsequent ...

Oxidative Damage, Energy Imbalance, and Behavioral Disruptions in Girardia tigrina Exposed to Treated Sewage Effluents

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study assessed the ecotoxicological effects of treated sewage on the freshwater planarian Girardia tigrina, integrating biochemical, energetic, and behavioral biomarkers. Planarians were exposed for 48 h to different concentrations of treated sewage (12.5%, 25%, 50%, and 100%) and compared to controls using commercial water and water from

Oxidative stress and mitochondrial uncoupling protein 2 expression in hepatic steatosis induced by exposure to xenobiotic DDE and high fat diet in male Wistar rats.

PLoS ONE, 2019
Oxidative stress plays a key role in steatohepatitis induced by both xenobiotic agents and high fat diet (HFD). The present study aimed to evaluate hepatic oxidative stress and anti-oxidant systems response in rats exposed to HFD and/or non-toxic dose of

In situ mapping of iron oxidation in laminar metal fuel flames using X‐ray absorption spectroscopy

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
For the first time an iron metal flame has been mapped by in situ X‐ray absorption spectroscopy. Strong gradients in oxidation state and phase composition across the metallic core and the flame front were found with FeO peaking at the visible flame front and Fe3O4 forming further beyond.Metal fuels such as iron are promising carbon‐free energy carriers

Fine‐tuning ab initio XANES spectra calculations using the Bayesian optimization algorithm

Journal of Synchrotron Radiation, EarlyView.
A Bayesian optimization technique is used to tune the FEFF and FDMNES packages and to improve matching between theoretical and experimental spectra. The tests were performed on monometallic Ni, Fe and Pd K‐edge XANES spectra using several different spectrum similarity metrics.Theoretical modeling of X‐ray absorption near‐edge structure (XANES) spectra ...
