Half a Century of Per‐ and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances in Northern Gannet Eggs: Impact of Regulations

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 11, Page 4085-4098, November 2026.
ABSTRACT Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), known as “forever chemicals”, are persistent organic pollutants that have been widely used in the industry across the globe for many decades. Their chemical stability, bioaccumulation, and toxicity pose major environmental and health risks. This study examines temporal trends in the concentrations of

Avian influenza overview June–August 2026

EFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Between 5 June and 28 August 2026, 110 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5N1) virus detections were reported in domestic (7) and wild (103) birds in 12 countries in Europe. The number of detections remained at a seasonal low throughout the summer, continuing the decline observed since spring.

Not Quite Folded: Challenges in Predicting the hNPS‐hNPSR‐Ile107 Complex With AlphaFold2 Multimer

ChemMedChem, Volume 21, Issue 16, 27 August 2026.
AlphaFold2 Multimer guided the design of 20 novel human neuropeptide S (hNPS) cyclic analogues. Modelling bias toward the inactive state favoured receptor blockade over activation. Exploiting a stereochemical switch in the peptide hinge region yielded four potent NPS receptor (NPSR) antagonists with pA2 up to 6.20. Lines indicate conformational bridges
