Soft Colloidal Robots: Magnetically Guided Liquid Crystal Torons for Targeted Micro‐Cargo Delivery

Small, EarlyView.
Torons, topological quasiparticles in liquid crystals, can be propelled using electric fields and precisely steered with magnetic alignment, enabling programmable motion without fluid flow. In microfluidic channels, they transport colloidal cargo and exhibit novel dynamic behavior. Their uniformity, softness, and reconfigurability make torons ideal for

Untreated Hair Dye Effluents Enter the Environment: Are They a Threat to Human Health?

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The effluents generated during the process of hair dyeing exhibit a complex composition, comprising chemical compounds with varying toxicity levels. While the adverse impact of hair dyes on human health is acknowledged, there is a notable absence of studies addressing the toxicity associated with effluents produced during these activities. The

Microbial Community Dynamics in Marine Water: Influence of Hydrocarbon Type and Exposure Time

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Marine environments are frequently impacted by petroleum‐derived hydrocarbons, which pose ecological risks because of their toxic, mutagenic, and carcinogenic potential. Microorganisms play a crucial role in hydrocarbon degradation, and understanding the influence of time and hydrocarbon type on microbial dynamics helps improve bioremediation ...

Assessment of Oxidative Stress, Vitellogenin, and Human Health Risks Derived From Nile Tilapia Exposed to Metals and Metalloids in Southeastern Brazil

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urban coastal lagoons are highly vulnerable ecosystems increasingly affected by metal contamination, as well as multiple anthropogenic stressors. This study evaluated ecotoxicological and human health risks associated with chronic metal exposure in Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) from an anthropogenically impacted lagoon in southeastern ...

Antimicrobial Residues in a Key Cerrado River: Distribution, Persistence, and Effects on Zebrafish Embryo‐Larval Development

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The current study aimed to quantify the antimicrobials amoxicillin (AMX), cefazolin (CFZ), chloramphenicol (CHL), metronidazole (MTZ), and sulfamethoxazole (SX) in effluents and surface water of an important Cerrado river, calculate their half‐lives, and analyze their ecotoxicity following single and combined exposures.
