Photocatalytic and Biotechnological Strategies for Remediation of Persistent Organic Pollutants: Mechanisms, Toxicity, and Antimicrobial Perspectives

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) pose significant ecological and human health risks due to their persistence, bioaccumulation, toxicity, and global distribution. Conventional remediation methods are often inadequate for achieving complete mineralization, demonstrating the need for advanced and substantial approaches.

Exposures in Indoor Air Affecting Health

open access: yesAllergy, Volume 81, Issue 3, Page 700-719, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Indoor air quality (IAQ) is influenced by a wide range of chemical, biological and physical agents that can negatively impact physical, immunological and mental health. Adverse health effects depend on the type and concentration of pollutants, duration of exposure, and individual susceptibility.

Evaluation of the pollution pressures posed by groups of chemicals on British riverine invertebrate populations

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 1, Page 106-127, February 2026.
ABSTRACT Globally, rivers receive a diverse range of chemicals, including metals, pesticides, persistent organic pollutants, petrochemicals, human and veterinary pharmaceuticals and personal care products. However, the extent to which these different chemical groups affect riverine invertebrate communities is not well defined.

Re‐evaluation of sucralose (E 955) as a food additive and evaluation of a new application on extension of use of sucralose (E 955) in fine bakery wares

open access: yesEFSA Journal, Volume 24, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract The present opinion deals with the re‐evaluation of sucralose (E 955) as food additive and with the safety of a proposed extension of use in food category (FC) 7.2 ‘Fine bakery wares’. Based on the available data, no safety concerns arose for genotoxicity of sucralose (E 955) and its impurities and degradation products.

Combining Insecticides and Bioinputs With Eucalyptus Wood Vinegar: Effects on the Soybean Crop

open access: yesAdvances in Agriculture, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
The use of pesticides and bioinputs in agriculture is one of the most vital needs today to improve crop yields. A combination of pesticides and bioinputs, along with natural agents, is a viable solution to make agribusiness more eco‐friendly. Wood vinegar (WV) is a recognized agricultural input that enhances plant growth and can act as a valuable agent

Effect of Plastic Composition in the Combustion Material on the Persistent Organic Pollutant Content in Smoked Dried Shiitake Mushroom

open access: yesJournal of Analytical Methods in Chemistry, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Smoking is a traditional preservation method in Vietnam, widely applied to shiitake mushrooms (Lentinula edodes) as well as meats, yet the use of plastic‐contaminated fuels poses emerging food safety concerns. This study provides the first congener‐specific characterization of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs ...

State‐of‐the‐Art, Insights, and Perspectives for MOFs‐Nanocomposites and MOF‐Derived (Nano)Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 52, December 29, 2025.
Different approaches to MOF‐NP composite formation, such as ship‐in‐a‐bottle, bottle‐around‐the‐ship and in situ one‐step synthesis, are used. Owing to synergistic effects, the advantageous features of the components of the composites are beneficially combined, and their individual drawbacks are mitigated.
