Reduced Freshwater Mussel Juvenile Production as a Result of Agricultural and Urban Contaminant Mixture Exposures

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, Volume 43, Issue 5, Page 1112-1125, May 2024.
Abstract Freshwater mussels provide invaluable ecological services but are threatened by habitat alteration, poor water quality, invasive species, climate change, and contaminants, including contaminants of emerging concern (CECs). Contaminants of emerging concerns are well documented in aquatic environments, including the Great Lakes Basin, but ...

Health of wild fish exposed to contaminants of emerging concern in freshwater ecosystems utilized by a Minnesota Tribal community

Integrated Environmental Assessment and Management, Volume 20, Issue 3, Page 846-863, May 2024.
Abstract Fish serve as indicators of exposure to contaminants of emerging concern (CECs)—chemicals such as pharmaceuticals, hormones, and personal care products—which are often designed to impact vertebrates. To investigate fish health and CECs in situ, we evaluated the health of wild fish exposed to CECs in waterbodies across northeastern Minnesota ...

Does Environmental Exposure to Pharmaceutical and Personal Care Product Residues Result in the Selection of Antimicrobial‐Resistant Microorganisms, and is this Important in Terms of Human Health Outcomes?

Environmental Toxicology and Chemistry, Volume 43, Issue 3, Page 623-636, March 2024.
Abstract The environment plays a critical role in the development, dissemination, and transmission of antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) enter the environment through direct application to the environment and through anthropogenic pollution.

In the arm-in-cage test, topical repellents activate mosquitoes to disengage upon contact instead of repelling them at distance

Scientific Reports
Topical repellents provide protection against mosquito bites and their efficacy is often assessed using the arm-in-cage test. The arm-in-cage test estimates the repellent’s protection time by exposing a repellent-treated forearm to host-seeking ...

Reconstructed human epidermis‐based testing strategy of skin sensitization potential and potency classification using epidermal sensitization assay and in silico data

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 44, Issue 3, Page 415-427, March 2024.
Abstract The hazards and potency of skin sensitizers are traditionally determined using animal tests such as the local lymph node assay (LLNA); however, significant progress has been made in the development of non‐animal test methods addressing the first three mechanistic key events of adverse outcome pathway in skin sensitization.

Larvicidal, Ovicidal, and Repellent Activities of Leucas stachydiformis (Hochst. ex Benth.) Briq Essential Oil against Anopheles arabiensis

Journal of Tropical Medicine, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Larvicidal, ovicidal, and repellent activities of the essential oil extracted by hydrodistillation from the leaves of the endemic Ethiopian plant Leucas stachydiformis (Hochst. ex Benth.) Briq were investigated against Anopheles arabiensis, the dominant malaria vector species in Ethiopia with the objective of searching for a plant‐based malaria vector ...
