Artemia salina Toxicity Assay: Standardization in a 24‐Well Microplate

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Bioassays with Artemia sp. are widely used in aquatic, environmental, and human toxicology as an initial tool to investigate the toxicity of plant extracts, isolated compounds, drugs, and products of natural or synthetic origin. These assays allow for the estimation of the median lethal concentration (LC50) and guide subsequent studies in ...

Climate‐Modulated Particle Toxicity: Acute Exposure to an Environmentally Informed Microplastic Mixture Induces Sex‐Dependent Systemic Reorganization in Swiss Mice

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microplastic (MP) pollution is widely recognized as an emerging environmental threat. Yet, most studies still rely on controlled experimental conditions that poorly reflect environmental complexity, potentially underestimating risks under realistic scenarios, particularly during short‐term exposures. Here, we tested whether acute oral exposure

Husbandry factors are associated with skin, gastrointestinal and ophthalmic disorders in leopard geckos (Eublepharis macularius)

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Research into disorders in captive reptiles is notably sparse in the UK, despite the popularity of various species as pets. This study aimed to survey and investigate risk factors for disorders of leopard geckos in the UK. Methods Medical records for leopard geckos presenting at three veterinary practices between 2019 and 2023 were ...

Modelling the surprising recolonisation of an understudied aquatic mammal in a highly urbanised area: fortune favoured the smooth‐coated otter in Singapore

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Ever‐growing human activities present an active and continuing threat to many species throughout the world. Nevertheless, concerted conservation efforts in some regions have balanced these threats and allowed endangered species to recolonise former parts of their original ranges and reverse their decline.

Home range and core area characteristics of urban and rural coyotes and red foxes in southern Wisconsin

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
Second‐order habitat selection is influenced by a variety of factors, including individual‐ and species‐specific traits and resource requirements, as well as landscape characteristics. By comparing home range characteristics across individuals, species, and landscapes, we can draw conclusions regarding whether and how different factors influence home ...
