Impact of organic pollutants on phenotype and gene expression in human breast cancer cells

Journal of Applied Toxicology, Volume 46, Issue 5, Page 1487-1505, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Human exposure to industrial chemical compounds is widespread and, although often beneficial, prolonged contact may contribute to disease development, including cancer. While many studies have shown organic pollutants (OP) are cytotoxic, few have explored how long‐term exposure alters cell phenotype.

Microplastic Detectability Investigation in Soils Using X‐Ray Microtomography

X-Ray Spectrometry, Volume 55, Issue 3, Page 387-398, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT X‐ray microtomography (microCT) is a promising tool for investigating microplastic (MP) contamination in soils, offering non‐destructive 3D visualization and quantitative analysis of particles embedded in complex matrices. This study evaluated its applicability by mixing plastic fragments (PET, PEHD, PS, and PP) with humus‐rich and sandy soils

A Numerical Study of the Effects of Density Contrast on Flow, Turbulence, and Mixing at the Negro/Solimoes Confluence, Brazil

Water Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Eddy‐resolving numerical simulations are conducted to investigate the effects of density contrast between the confluent flows on hydrodynamics, coherent structures and mixing downstream of the confluence between the Negro and Solimões Rivers, Brazil, which is characterized by both a large discharge (>100,000 m3/s) and a large aspect‐ratio (W/D
