Fluoride as a Modifier of Metallome Homeostasis: A Systematic Review of Animal Studies

Basic &Clinical Pharmacology &Toxicology, Volume 139, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT Fluoride is widely used for caries prevention due to its effects on mineralized tissues, yet its potential role as a modifier of systemic metal homeostasis remains insufficiently explored. This systematic review synthesizes preclinical evidence on the association between fluoride exposure and changes in metal and semi‐metal concentrations ...

Remediation of chronic ammonia effects in common carp by dietary thymol supplementation

Journal of the World Aquaculture Society, Volume 57, Issue 5, October 2026.
Abstract Chronic ammonia toxicity represents a major challenge in intensive aquaculture, often leading to impaired growth and physiological distress. This study evaluated the efficacy of dietary thymol supplementation in mitigating the deleterious effects of chronic ammonia exposure in common carp, Cyprinus carpio. Fish (initial weight: 10.41 ± 0.23 g)
