π‐Expanded Fluoranthenes as Chromophores With Tailored Properties

Helvetica Chimica Acta, EarlyView.
A series of π‐expanded fluoranthene scaffolds selectively functionalized with electron donors and acceptors were synthesized. The evolution of the structural, optoelectronic, and redox properties in relation to substitution and cyclization was comprehensively studied both in experiment and in theory. The results identify the compounds as highly tunable

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.
