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

open access: yesEnvironmental 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

Volatile Organic Compounds in Rainwater: A New Frontier in Atmosphere–Biosphere Interactions

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences, Volume 131, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Rainwater is a key vector of atmospheric deposition, linking the atmosphere with terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems. While the inorganic chemistry of precipitation (dominated by sulfate, nitrate, ammonium, and trace metals) has been extensively studied, organic compounds in rainwater have received less attention, and Volatile Organic Compounds

Pesticide Residues, Gut Microbiota, and Gastrointestinal Outcomes: A Scoping Review of Human Evidence

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Vegetables anchor healthy‐diet recommendations yet are the principal nonoccupational route by which residues of organophosphate (OP), pyrethroid, neonicotinoid, organochlorine (OC), and glyphosate herbicide enter the diet, with the gut microbiota a plausible mediator linking these residues to functional gastrointestinal (GI) and inflammatory ...

Impact of Environmental Exposure on Infant Sleep : The Exposome Approach

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, Volume 35, Issue 4, August 2026.
This review explores how exposure to environmental pollutants during the first 1000 days of life may affect infant sleep. Evidence suggests potential links between chemical exposures and sleep disturbances, underscoring the need for more research on early‐life vulnerability and the impact of pollutants in air, diet, and breast milk.

Isotope fractionation approach to characterize the reactive transport processes governing the fate of hexachlorocyclohexanes at a contaminated site in India

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2019
The transformation processes of hexachlorocyclohexane isomers (HCHs) from production sites of Lindane across the landscape and along the food web were studied as an example to understand the fate of POPs in the environment.

Theoretical insight on the treatment of β-hexachlorocyclohexane waste through alkaline dehydrochlorination

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
The occurrence of 4.8–7.2 million tons of hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH) isomers stocked in dumpsites around the world constitutes a huge environmental and economical challenge because of their toxicity and persistence.
