ABSTRACT Atmospheric deposition of organic pollutants plays a crucial role in the transport and fate of contaminants in the environment, with implications for ecosystem health and human exposure. Persistent organic pollutants (POPs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and microplastics are increasingly recognized as transboundary threats due to ...

Mechanochemical Near‐Ambient Synthesis of C2N Materials From HAT‐CN and its Precursors
The synthesis of C2N‐type materials was dominated by temperature‐based materials. Herein, we present two innovative mechanochemical pathways to synthesize those materials, revealing the significant impact of energy input per single‐impact on the structure and yield.

Impact of organic pollutants on phenotype and gene expression in human breast cancer cells
ABSTRACT Human exposure to industrial chemical compounds is widespread and, although often beneficial, prolonged contact may contribute to disease development, including cancer. While many studies have shown organic pollutants (OP) are cytotoxic, few have explored how long‐term exposure alters cell phenotype.

The 2024 European Union report on pesticide residues in food
Abstract Under European Union legislation (Article 32, Regulation (EC) No 396/2005), the European Food Safety Authority publishes an annual report assessing pesticide residue levels in food. In 2024, 9842 samples were analysed as part of the EU‐coordinated multiannual control programme subset, of which 1.2% were found to be non‐compliant.

Abstract The Atoyac river basin is one of the most polluted watershed basins in Mexico. Recent studies have reported the presence of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) in this highly urbanized region through environmental monitoring, raising concerns about potential health risks, particularly for children and adolescents.

It is of great scientific and practical importance to explore the mechanisms of accelerated degradation of Hexachlorobenzene (HCB) in soil. Both iron oxide and dithionite may promote the reductive dechlorination of HCB, but their effects on the microbial

Effect of hexachlorobenzene on haem synthesis [PDF]
Several drugs are known to induce the liver microsomal mixed-function oxidase system when administered in vivo or even in vitro in cell culture. A sequence of events has been suggested in which the drug is visualized to induce δ-aminolaevulinate synthetase, the first and rate-limiting enzyme of the haem-biosynthetic pathway, which is followed by ...
