Inconsistent Transcriptomic Responses to Hexabromocyclododecane in Japanese Quail: A Comparative Analysis of Results From Four Different Study Designs

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology and Chemistry, EarlyView.
Abstract Efforts to use transcriptomics for toxicity testing have classically relied on the assumption that chemicals consistently produce characteristic transcriptomic signatures that are reflective of their mechanism of action. However, the degree to which transcriptomic responses are conserved across different test methodologies has seldom been ...

Residence Near Agricultural Crops at Birth and Risk of Adult Testicular Germ Cell Tumors: A French Nationwide Case–Control Study Using Historical Aerial GIS Data

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
As the incidence of testicular germ cell tumors (TGCTs) rises, prenatal exposure to agricultural pesticides may represent an important risk factor. Here, geographic information system‐based measures of farmland proximity at birth were used as a proxy for early‐life pesticide exposure in France, a major pesticide consumer.

Toxicological Screening of Forage Used in Cattle Feed in Order to Determine the Degree of Contamination by Pesticides

open access: yesScientific Papers Animal Science and Biotechnologies, 2023
Pesticides enter the body via the respiratory, cutaneous and oral. The oral route is predominant. Feeding animals with forage treated with pesticides that can be processed as a result of surface treatment during the vegetation, can be a potential cause ...

Chemical Ionization Mass Spectrometry: Fundamental Principles, Diverse Applications, and the Latest Technological Frontiers

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The review examines the evolution of chemical ionization mass spectrometry (CI‐MS), a technique developed in 1966 by Field and Munson. CI is a soft‐ionization method that produces more intense molecular ions with less fragmentation than electron ionization (EI).
