Impact of benzophenone-3 on the integument and gills of zebrafish ( < em > Danio rerio < /em > )
This study investigated the effect of BP-3 on the structure of the integument and gills, as well as the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) in the gills of Danio rerio. Fish were exposed to different concentrations (7, 70, and 700 µg L-1) of BP-3 for 7 and 14 d. For the histological analysis of the integument and gills, the fish were fixed in Bouin liquid and processed according to standard histologic procedures, and the tissue section slices were stained according to different histochemical methods. BP-3 caused tissue damage and morphological alterations in the gills; however, the integument showe...

Adsorption-desorption characteristics of atrazine on soil and vermicompost prepared with different ratios of raw materials
This study demonstrated that vermicomposts have great potential in the bioremediation of atrazine pollution and that their role is related to the raw materials used to prepare them.PMID:37614009 | DOI:10.1080/03601234.2023.2247942 (Source: Journal of Environmental Science and Health.

Catalytic electrodes' characterization study serving polluted water treatment: environmental healthcare and ecological risk assessment
J Environ Sci Health B. 2023 Aug 21:1-9. doi: 10.1080/03601234.2023.2247943. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPesticide residues in the environment have irreparable effects on human health and other organisms. Hence, it is necessary to treat and degrade them from polluted water. In the current work, the electrochemical removal of the fenitrothion (FT), trifluralin (TF), and chlorothalonil (CT) pesticides were performed by catalytic electrode. The characteristics of SnO2-Sb2O3, PbO2, and Bi-PbO2 electrodes were described by FE-SEM and XRD. Dynamic electrochemical techniques including cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedan...

A new laboratory method to study the impact of leaf texture on pesticide dislodgeable foliar residues (DFR)
J Environ Sci Health B. 2023;58(8):555-564. doi: 10.1080/03601234.2023.2236914. Epub 2023 Aug 10.ABSTRACTPesticides are vital in meeting the challenge of feeding the rapidly increasing world population. However, it is crucial that they are used in a way that does not compromise the safety of humans or the environment. Non-dietary worker risk assessments consider the amount of residue which can be transferred from plant foliage to the skin or clothes, known as dislodgeable foliar residues (DFRs). DFR data scarcity due to the costly and seasonal characteristics of DFR studies is an obstacle to the extrapolation of DFR data t...
