The Employment of Hydrogen Peroxide in Water Disinfection Poses a Threat to Aquatic Ecosystems Because of Its Toxicity to Nontarget Organisms

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydrogen peroxide is widely used in water and wastewater treatment, particularly in advanced oxidation processes that aid in the degradation of compounds and microbial disinfection. Despite concerns about potential environmental contamination, its impact on freshwater ecosystems remains inadequately studied.

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 ...

Evaluation of Peel Plate™ EC for Determination of E. coli and Coliform or Total Coliform in Dairy Products

Journal of AOAC INTERNATIONAL, 2016
Abstract Peel Plate™ EC is a low-profile plastic, 47 mm culture dish with an adhesive top that contains a dried medium with Gram-negative selective agents and with enzyme substrate indicators for β-galactosidase (coliform) and β-glucuronidase (Escherichia coli). The method provides a conventional quantitative coliform (red) and E.

Effects of Live and Heat‐Treated Bifidobacterium longum CECT 7347 in Adults With Allergic Rhinitis: A Randomised, Double‐Blind, Placebo‐Controlled Trial

Allergy, EarlyView.
This randomized, double‐blind, placebo‐controlled trial evaluated the effects of live probiotic and HT postbiotic B. longum CECT 7347 in adults with moderate–severe allergic rhinitis. Postbiotic supplementation for 8 weeks significantly reduced CSMS and dSS, exceeding the established CSMS MCID with a 33% greater improvement, when compared to placebo ...

Interplay of crop diversity and agricultural area in agroecosystem services: Analytical and empirical study on local water quality

Canadian Journal of Agricultural Economics/Revue canadienne d'agroeconomie, EarlyView.
Abstract This study expands the framework for analyzing the interplay of agricultural area and crop diversity on agroecosystem services by incorporating the species‐area relationship concept from biology. We estimate panel fixed effects models that include both agricultural area and crop diversity, along with their interaction term.
