Navigating Classical and Nonclassical Realms of Nucleation and Crystallization

Small, EarlyView.
Classical nucleation and growth theories have long been foundational, yet recent nonclassical concepts have challenged and refined our understanding of solid‐state genesis. This paradigm shift introduced new, often ambiguous vocabulary. Here, we clarify key concepts, correct common misconceptions, and provide a terminological field guide across systems,

Enhanced Synthesis and Electrochemical Performance of Cobalt Hexacyanoferrate via Protonation‐Regulated Coprecipitation

Small, EarlyView.
A novel synthesis strategy is proposed which leverages the distinct acid–base equilibria of two hexacyanoferrate species for the rapid, chelator‐free production of low defect cobalt hexacyanoferrate (CoHCF). Despite a processing time of ∼15 min, the resulting CoHCF prepared via the protonation‐regulated coprecipitation exhibits excellent energy density

From Atomic‐Scale Engineering to Industry‐Ready Systems: Prospects for Seawater Electrolysis Toward Hydrogen

Small, EarlyView.
Seawater electrolysis is emerging as a viable route for large‐scale green hydrogen production, yet faces challenges from complex chemistries and harsh operating conditions. This review critically examines advances in electrocatalysts, device structures, and mechanistic understanding, highlighting scalable design strategies, durability in real seawater,

Diflubenzuron Caused Mitochondrial Dysfunction, Ca2+ Homeostasis Disruption, and Intrinsic Apoptosis in Trophoblastic Cells

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Diflubenzuron is used as an insect growth inhibitor, and its potential risk to human health was raised owing to the possibility of environmental residues and human exposure. This study aimed to investigate the toxic mechanism of diflubenzuron on trophoblastic cells such as HTR8/SVneo and JEG‐3 cells. We investigated mitochondrial function, Ca2+

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 ...

Trace Element Contamination in Top Predatory Elasmobranchs From the Southern Black Sea: Implications for Ecosystem Health and Risk Assessment

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental pollution resulting from the rapid increase in human population, urbanization, intensive use of chemicals in agriculture, and industrial development has reached a level that threatens natural life today. Trace elements are one of the most important factors causing significant levels of pollution in the environment and are added ...

Ecotoxicological Assessment of Mercury in Fish From a Gold‐Mining‐Impacted Amazonian River: Biomonitoring and Human Health Risk

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Peixoto de Azevedo River, located in northern Mato Grosso, southern Brazilian Amazon, has a long history of artisanal and small‐scale gold mining (ASGM). This study evaluated total mercury (THg) concentrations in fish tissues to assess biomagnification and potential risks.

An Exercise‐Pollution Exposure Index for Assessing Inhaled Heavy Metal Exposure Along Urban Walking Routes

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Urban walking routes are promoted as health‐supportive environments, yet they may also act as microenvironments of pollutant exposure during physical activity. This study evaluated heavy metal exposure along urban walking routes by integrating road dust metal concentrations, conventional health risk assessment, deposited inhalation dose, and ...

Assessment of Metal Contamination and Human Health Risk in the Buffalo River Estuary, Eastern Cape, South Africa

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Metal contamination in estuarine environments poses environmental and public health concerns, particularly where surface waters support domestic and subsistence uses. This study assessed the seasonal distribution, controlling mechanisms, and non‐carcinogenic health risks of selected metals (Mg, Al, Ba, Fe, Mn, and Zn) in the Buffalo River ...

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

Environmental 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.
