A Versatile Microfluidic Manufacturing Platform for Macroscale Multicore Hydrogel Capsules Toward Programmable Oral Delivery of Therapeutics

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
This study presents a microfluidic fabrication method for millimeter‐scale multicore hydrogel capsules containing multiple aqueous cores physically isolated by oil layers. These macrocapsules exhibit mechanical and chemical robustness effectively protecting cargos under simulated gastric conditions.

Engineering metal‐organic framework‐based smart porous nanoplatforms for targeted therapy and theranostic applications

open access: yesSmart Molecules, EarlyView.
MOFs offer high porosity and tunability for biomedical applications, especially in cancer therapy via ROS generation and targeted delivery. Though toxicity, stability, and scalability remain key clinical challenges. Drug loading in MOFs exceeds 60%–70% with controlled release behavior.

From Consumer Plastics to Aquatic Toxicants: Oxidative and Endocrine Effects of Microplastics on Fathead Minnow (Pimephales promelas) Larvae

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Secondary microplastics (MPs) from single‐use consumer products are rapidly becoming one of the most persistent and widespread pollutants of our time. Freshwater systems act as early sinks for MPs where fragmentation and additive leaching expose aquatic life to a broad spectrum of toxic compounds.

Climate‐Modulated Particle Toxicity: Acute Exposure to an Environmentally Informed Microplastic Mixture Induces Sex‐Dependent Systemic Reorganization in Swiss Mice

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Microplastic (MP) pollution is widely recognized as an emerging environmental threat. Yet, most studies still rely on controlled experimental conditions that poorly reflect environmental complexity, potentially underestimating risks under realistic scenarios, particularly during short‐term exposures. Here, we tested whether acute oral exposure

Bioaccessibility of Metal(loid)s From Anthropogenic Contamination in Dry Riverbed Sediments in the Cartagena–La Unión Mining District (Murcia, SE Spain): Implications for Human Health Risk Assessment

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study assessed the contamination levels, bioaccessibility, and potential health risks of As, Cd, Cu, Pb, and Zn in sediments from three dry riverbeds (El Beal‐EB, Las Matildes‐LM, and Ponce‐PN) impacted by historical mining activities in the Cartagena‐La Unión Mining District.
