Atmospheric Deposition of Organic Pollutants: A Comprehensive Review of Sampling and Analytical Methodologies

open access: yesAnalytical Science Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, June 2026.
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 ...

Bisphenol B Exposure Induces Miscarriage by Suppressing Migration/Invasion and Migrasome Formation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 7, 3 February 2026.
BPB (Bisphenol B) exposure up‐regulates ER (estrogen receptor) levels, enhances its interactions with the lnc‐HZ04 promoter region, and thus promotes ER‐mediated lnc‐HZ04 transcription. Subsequently, lnc‐HZ04 suppresses TCF4 (transcription factor 4)‐mediated PKCA (protein kinase C alpha) transcription and subsequently suppresses migration/invasion and ...

Potential Anti‐Aging Effects of a Dietary Supplement From the Algal‐Derived Omega‐3 DHA in Aged SAMP 8 Mice

open access: yesFood Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Algal‐derived Omega‐3 DHA supplementation exerts significant anti‐aging and neuroprotective effects in SAMP8 mice. Algal Omega‐3 DHA effectively mitigates age‐related cognitive decline, enhances antioxidant defenses, and extends lifespan. Algal‐derived Omega‐3 DHA supplementation enhances cognitive function, attenuates oxidative stress, and reduces ...

Serum concentrations of polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) and polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) in the Michigan PBB Registry 40 years after the PBB contamination incident

open access: yesEnvironment International, 2020
Widespread polybrominated biphenyls (PBBs) contamination occurred in Michigan from 1973 to 1974, when PBBs were accidentally substituted for a nutritional supplement in livestock feed. People who lived in the state were exposed to PBBs via several routes
