Terminal lakes (without outflow) retain elements and compounds that reach them through fluvial, point source or atmospheric deposition. If the lake sediment is exposed, some of these chemicals could become toxic dust particulates. The Great Salt Lake (GSL) in Utah is a terminal lake that experienced record-low lake elevation in 2021-22, exposing va...

Bees play crucial roles in pollination. They face pesticide exposure, adversely affecting their survival and physiological functions. Pesticides like glyphosate, pyraclostrobin, and imidacloprid are commonly used in Brazilian agroecosystems, with residues found in bee food resources. Our study investigates the chronic effects of these pesticides, a...

European hedgehogs (Erinaceus europaeus) inhabit most of Denmark, except for a few smaller islands. Research from other European countries has shown that the hedgehog populations are in decline. The exposure to chemicals might contribute to this development, although their role is currently unknown. Our research studied the occurrence of 19 selecte...

Introduction Pharmaceutical residues are widely detected in aquatic environment and can be taken up by nontarget species such as fish. The cytochromes P450 (CYP) represent an important detoxification mechanism in fish, like in humans. In the present study, we assessed the correlation of the substrate selectivities of rainbow trout CYP1A and CYP3A h...

Du fait de leur comportement alimentaire, les rapaces et oiseaux nécrophages peuvent être accidentellement exposés à des médicaments vétérinaires lorsqu’ils mangent des cadavres de ruminants ou chevaux laissés dans la nature. Les anti-inflammatoires et barbituriques sont particulièrement à risque pour ces animaux et font l’objet de précautions d’em...

Environmental monitoring is a major challenge for modern society. Most of the methods currently in use are based on physico-chemical analytical principles. Although they are very powerful for determining specific parameters of an environment (such as pH, specific molecules, etc.), they do not allow us to assess biological parameters such as the fat...

Bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) are keystone and sentinel species in the world's oceans. We studied correlations between per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) and their stress axis. We investigated associations between plasma biomarkers of 12 different PFAS variants and three cortisol pools (total, bound, and free) in wild T. truncatu...

The definitions of toxicology, environmental toxicology, environmental chemistry, environmental risk, and ecotoxicology are closely related and sometimes used as synonyms, whereas One Health is a more recent, complementary concept. This contribution examines the origins of the usages of these terms, explores their interchangeability (whether approp...
