Morphology, Ontogenesis, and Multi‐Gene Phylogeny of the Type Species Cyrtohymena muscorum (Kahl, 1932) Foissner, 1989 (Alveolata, Ciliophora, Hypotricha)

Zoologica Scripta, Volume 55, Issue 2, Page 368-387, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Members of the oxytrichid genus Cyrtohymena are characterised by a distinctive undulating membranes type, known as the Cyrtohymena pattern, featuring a strongly curved stichodyad paroral that forms a semicircle distally. Although the type species, Cyrtohymena muscorum, has been redescribed morphologically, its ontogenesis remains poorly ...

Effects of Extremely Low Frequency Magnetic Field Exposure (50 Hz, 200 µT) on Cell Viability, DNA Damage and Micronucleus Formation of Human Skin Cells

Bioelectromagnetics, Volume 47, Issue 2, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Both everyday electrical devices and high voltage transmission lines produce electric and magnetic fields with a frequency of 50 Hz in Europe and most other countries. Although several studies have already been investigating the effects of extremely low frequency magnetic field (ELF‐MF) exposure on biological material, this topic is still ...
