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

Evaluating the Endocrine‐Disrupting and Oxidative Stress Potential of a 50‐Component Human‐Relevant Complex Chemical Mixture Using In Vitro Tests

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 6, Page 2003-2018, June 2026.
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.

Eicosapentaenoic and Docosahexaenoic Acid Levels in Mouse Tissues After Intake of Echium and Ahiflower Oils Rich in Stearidonic and α‐Linolenic Acids

open access: yesLipids, Volume 61, Issue 3, Page 417-426, May 2026.
Dietary supplementation with stearidonic acid–rich Echium and Ahiflower oils increases EPA levels across multiple mouse tissues, while DHA responses remain tissue‐specific and limited, supporting the strategic use of plant‐based omega‐3 sources for EPA‐focused interventions. ABSTRACT Omega‐3 fatty acids (n‐3 FA), particularly eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)

Organochlorine Pesticide Residues in Raw Milk Samples Collected From Goat's Dairy Farms of Kastamonu Province, Türkiye

open access: yesVeterinary Medicine and Science, Volume 12, Issue 3, May 2026.
This study analyzed 20 goat milk samples from Kastamonu, Türkiye, detecting methoxychlor, β‐endosulfan, and p,p'‐DDE residues. While methoxychlor exceeded maximum residue limits (MRL) in 13 of 14 positive samples, other residues remained below established thresholds.

Enteric Nervous System Damage by Food Contaminants: A Pathway to Neurodegeneration?

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The enteric nervous system (ENS), a key component of the gut–brain axis, has emerged as a critical player in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). It is the first neural system exposed to food contaminants (FCs)—a diverse group of ubiquitous toxic compounds fortuitously present in food derived from production, processing, storage, or ...
