The 5T Paradox of Triclosan: From Toiletries to Toxic Trash, a Growing Threat to Humanity
ABSTRACT Triclosan (TCS) persists as a contaminant of concern in the Anthropocene, despite regulatory actions. Environmental dissemination continues through wastewater effluents, biosolid application, and improper disposal practices. This narrative review synthesizes current evidence regarding triclosan's environmental fate, transformation pathways ...

ABSTRACT Copper is an environmental contaminant capable of disrupting redox homeostasis and impairing antioxidant defenses in aquatic organisms, thereby increasing susceptibility to oxidative stress. The cystine/glutamate antiporter (system xc−) plays a central role in maintaining intracellular glutathione (GSH) levels, a major antioxidant defense ...

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

ABSTRACT Climate change and anthropogenic ignitions are intensifying wildfire frequency worldwide, elevating the risk of freshwater contamination by ash. In water, dissolved ash releases ions and other toxic constituents that increase pH and alter physicochemical conditions, while suspended ash particles may impose mechanical stress, disrupt behavior ...

ABSTRACT Despite the widespread presence of cigarette butts in the environment, the potential toxicological effects posed by microplastics (MPs) derived from them remain poorly understood. In this study, we compared the effects of MPs from conventional cigarette butts (cellulose acetate) and heated tobacco devices (cellulose acetate and polylactic acid
