Bioremediation of Lindane by Wood-Decaying Fungi

open access: yesDrvna Industrija, 2012
The object of this paper is to study the ability of four white-rot fungi (Trametes versicolor, Hypoxylon fragiforme, Chondrostereum purpureum, and Pleurotus ostreatus) and one brown-rot fungus (Gloeophyllum trabeum) to degrade the organochlorine ...

Impact of organic pollutants on phenotype and gene expression in human breast cancer cells

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 5, Page 1487-1505, May 2026.
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.

Organochlorine Pesticide Residues in Raw Milk Samples Collected From Goat's Dairy Farms of Kastamonu Province, Türkiye

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
This study analyzed 20 goat milk samples from Kastamonu, Türkiye, detecting methoxychlor, β‐endosulfan, and p,p'‐DDE residues. While methoxychlor exceeded maximum residue limits (MRL) in 13 of 14 positive samples, other residues remained below established thresholds.

The 2024 European Union report on pesticide residues in food

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 5, May 2026.
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.
