The Generics Revolution and the New Economic Geography of the Global Pesticide Industry
ABSTRACT The global pesticide industry transformed from one dominated by patented products and legacy multinationals with strong manufacturing bases in the United States and EU to one dominated by generic products produced in India and China. We use proprietary market research data, data from regulatory filings, industry press and bilateral trade data ...

ABSTRACT Atmospheric deposition of organic pollutants plays a crucial role in the transport and fate of contaminants in the environment, with implications for ecosystem health and human exposure. Persistent organic pollutants (POPs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and microplastics are increasingly recognized as transboundary threats due to ...

ABSTRACT Humans are chronically exposed to mixtures of environmental contaminants. Exposure to endocrine‐disrupting chemicals (EDCs) contributes to increased health impairment observed globally. This study aimed to evaluate the endocrine‐disruptive and oxidative stress potential of a human‐relevant, complex chemical mixture in vitro.

Progress in potential toxicity of chiral pesticides
In the past, chiral pesticides were explored as racemic mixtures in environmental fate and ecotoxicities. However, as a result of the enantioselective interactions with chiral molecules, the enantiomers of chiral pesticides may have different potential ...

Crystal Facets Reactivity in Metal–Organic Frameworks
In this mini review, it is highlighted how the crystal facets reactivity of metal–organic frameworks can be dictated by bond strength, surface functionality, particle size, defect density, or crystal morphology. Precise control of these parameters enables deliberate exposure of crystal facets, leading to enhanced crystal surface accessibility and ...
