In the last few decades, short-chain chlorinated paraffins (SCCPs) have become the most heavily produced monomeric organohalogen compounds, and have been reported to induce multiple organ toxicity. However, the effects of SCCPs on the central nervous system are unknown. In the present study, we show that SCCP exposure induced astrocyte proliferatio...

Decabromodiphenyl ether (BDE-209), the primary constituent of a widely used flame retardant formulation, is often present in high levels in avian derived products and could be transferred to humans through consumption. The purpose of this study was to investigate the toxicokinetics and bioaccumulation patterns of BDE-209 in different tissues of bro...

Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), a group of brominated flame retardants (BFRs), were reported exist extensively in various ecological environmental. Studies have indicated that PBDEs induce reproductive toxic effects on human health, but the mechanisms remain poorly understood. In this study, the adult female zebrafish were used to investiga...

Salmonella is a zoonotic foodborne bacterial pathogen that can seriously harm health. Persistence of Salmonella and antibiotic resistance genes (ARGs) in different types of soil under flooding and natural conditions are rare explored. This study investigated the dynamic changes of the Salmonella, ARGs and bacterial communities in three types of soi...

Azoxystrobin (AZ) is one of the most widely used strobilurin fungicides in the world, and its residue has seriously endangered aquatic ecological security. Our previous data showed that AZ exposure may reduce the resistance of fish to rhabdovirus infection in aquatic environment. Here, we further reported a potential long-term adverse effect of AZ ...

Ammonia has been reported to have a variety of toxicity to aquatic animals, farm animals and humans. However, its potential toxicity on the intestines remains unknown. L-selenomethionine is one of the important organic selenium sources. However, the mitigating effect of L-selenomethionine on ammonia exposure toxicity is still lacking. Therefore, in...

The negative impact of banned pesticides is of special importance for their high toxicity. In this study, nationwide screening of banned pesticides in 37462 fruit and vegetable samples was carried out from 2012 to 2018 using a self-developed HPLC-Q-TOF/MS technique. The dietary exposure risks associated with the banned pesticides were assessed. The...
