Developmental exposure to non-dioxin-like polychlorinated biphenyls promotes sensory deficits and disrupts dopaminergic and GABAergic signaling in zebrafish

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Nadja Brun et al. characterize the impact of early exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls on neural development and behavior in zebrafish. Their results demonstrate that developmental exposure to these chemicals promotes sensory deficits and disrupts ...

Nanoplastics: Methods, Exposure and Effects on Domestic, Farm and Wild Animals

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanoplastics (NPs) are synthetic polymer particles ranging in size from 1 nm to 1 μm that have been identified as a major concern for ecosystems and organisms due to their plethora of negative effects. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the knowledge relating to exposure and effects of NPs in domestic (i.e., farm ...

Assessing Metabolic and Reproductive Consequences of Prenatal Paracetamol Exposure in Female CD1 Mice

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Paracetamol is a widely used analgesic during pregnancy; however, emerging evidence suggests it may act as an endocrine/metabolism disrupting compound. Using an F1 female CD1 mouse model, this study scrutinized the long‐term metabolic and reproductive consequences linked to intrauterine paracetamol exposure.

Kinetics of Biphenyl and Polychlorinated Biphenyl Metabolism in Soil [PDF]

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 1985
The metabolism of 14 C-labeled PCBs (polychlorinated biphenyls), which comprised the Aroclor 1242 mixture, was greatly enhanced by the addition of biphenyl (BP) to soil. After 49 days, only 25 to 35% of the original PCBs remained in the soil, and 48 to 49% was converted to 14 CO 2

Bee pollen as functional food and environmental bioindicator: current evidence and future challenges

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Bee pollen (BP), a plant‐derived product collected by honey bees, is increasingly promoted as a functional food due to its content of proteins, essential amino acids, lipids, vitamins, minerals, and bioactive compounds such as polyphenols and flavonoids.

Occurrence and Distribution of Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) from Sele River, Southern Italy: Analysis of Polychlorinated Biphenyls and Organochlorine Pesticides in a Water–Sediment System

open access: yesToxics, 2022
The concentrations, possible sources, and ecological risk of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) were studied by analyzing water column (DP), suspended particulate matter (SPM) and sediment samples from 10 sites on the ...
