Multistressor Interaction of Perfluorooctane Sulfonate (PFOS) and Temperature in Two Estuarine Fish Species, Red Drum (Sciaenops ocellatus) and Sheepshead Minnow (Cyprinodon variegatus)

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), a perfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS), is characterized by a long, fluorinated carbon chain which makes it ideal for oil‐ and water‐repellent products but detrimental for the environment, where it persists and accumulates in organisms.

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

open access: yesEnvironmental 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 ...

Interspecific Differences in the Effects on Embryos Between Freshwater and Marine Fish Exposed to Water‐Accommodated Fractions Derived From Very‐Low Sulfur Fuel Oil

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the toxic effects of water‐accommodated fractions (WAFs) of very‐low sulfur fuel oil (VLSFO) on freshwater and marine fish embryos. Embryos of Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes), Java medaka (Oryzias javanicus), and grass puffer (Takifugu alboplumbeus) were exposed to various concentrations of VLSFO‐WAF, and the effects on ...

Capture of isoflurane from anaesthetised dogs and cats following methadone, medetomidine and ketamine administration

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Volatile anaesthetic agents contribute to climate change, and reducing this impact is a commendable ambition. We evaluated the efficiency of a veterinary capture device for isoflurane (VET‐can/VET‐dock, SageTech Veterinary) in anaesthetised cats and dogs.

Modeling the lung‒brain axis in critical illness: Multifactorial crosstalk through organoids and organ‐on‐a‐chip system

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Patients in intensive care units often experience lung injuries, complicated by brain problems. Advanced laboratory tools, organoids, and organs‐on‐chips facilitated the study of multiorgan interactions, help us understand the communication between the lungs and brain.

Nesting ecology of an ice‐associated seabird, Kittlitz's murrelet, at the northern edge of its range

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, EarlyView.
We studied the Kittlitz's murrelet, an ice‐associated seabird of conservation concern, at the northern edge of its range. Over a 2‐year period, we estimated nest density and success at 2 sites, captured and telemetered nesting murrelets, and tested the use of a thermal camera to improve nest detection.

Spatiotemporal dynamics and machine learning‐based prediction of above‐ground biomass in the Indus Delta mangroves

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Mangrove forests are important blue carbon ecosystems, yet long‐term above‐ground biomass (AGB) dynamics in arid deltaic systems remain poorly understood. Here, we integrated field‐derived AGB data with multisource remote sensing and machine learning models (random ...
