To develop a highly efficient adsorbent to remediate and remove hexavalent chromium ions (Cr(VI)) from polluted water, cellulose acetate (CA) and chitosan (CS), along with metal oxides (titanium dioxide (TiO2) and ferroferric oxide (Fe3O4)), and a zirconium-based metal-organic framework (UiO-66) were used to fabricate the composite porous nanofiber...

Lead(II) is a potential carcinogen of heavy-metal ions (HIs). With the wide application of Pb-bearing products including lead alloy products, and new-energy lead-ion batteries, lead pollution has become a tricky problem. To solve such a difficulty, novel ultrathin MoS2-vinyl hybrid membranes (MVHMs) with a "spring" effect were synthesized via co-po...

Metconazole (MEZ), a chiral triazole fungicide, produces enantioselective adverse effects in non-target organisms. Among MEZ's isomers, cis-MEZ displays robust antimicrobial properties. Evaluating MEZ and cis-MEZ's toxicity may mitigate fungicide usage and safeguard non-target organisms. Our study evaluated the toxicity of MEZ and its cis-isomers a...

To ensure environmental and health safety, relevant pollutants such as pesticides must be screened thoroughly to set their permissible limit. Various approaches have been used to identify pesticides such as capillary electrophoresis, gas and liquid-liquid chromatography, high-performance liquid chromatography, and enzyme-linked immune-absorbent tes...

Considering that microplastics (MPs) are classified as ubiquitous pollutants, that air quality affects human health, and that people remain indoors most of the time, the need has arisen to evaluate the exposure to MPs within the suspended dust in indoor environments. With this objective, the present study carried out passive sampling to analyze the...

As a widely used alternative to perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA), hexafluoropropylene oxide trimer acid (HFPO-TA) has been detected in the environment and humans; however, little is known regarding its male reproductive toxicity. To compare the effects of HFPO-TA on steroid hormone synthesis with PFOA, we exposed Leydig cells (MLTC-1) to non-lethal do...

Plastic debris in the environment are not only pollutants but may also be important sources of a variety of contaminants. This work simulated kinetics and potential of chemical leaching from plastic debris in animals' digestive systems by incubating polyvinyl chloride (PVC) cord particles in artificial digestive fluids combined with nontarget and s...

As an important psychoactive substance, cotinine is ubiquitous in aquatic environment and poses a threat to aquatic organisms. However, the mechanism of its adverse health impacts remains unclear. We evaluated the effects of cotinine exposure at environmentally relevant concentrations on the development and locomotor behavior of zebrafish (Danio re...

The increasing presence of secondary micro/nanoplastics (MNPLs) in the environment requires knowing if they represent a real health concern. To such end, an important point is to test representative MNPLs such as the denominated true-to-life MNPLs, resulting from the degradation of plastic goods in lab conditions. In this study, we have used polyet...

β-cyclocitral (BCC) is an odorous compound that can be produced by bloom-forming cyanobacteria, for example, Microcystis aeruginosa. BCC has been proposed to explain the rapid decline of cyanobacterial blooms in natural water bodies due to its lytic effects on cyanobacteria cells. However, few insights have been gained regarding the mechanisms of i...
