Environmental assessment of antibiotic toxicity under climate change–related temperature and pH scenarios using Danio rerioNARA Subscribed
Climate change induced temperature and pH shifts can alter aquatic environments, potentially intensifying antibiotic toxicity, disrupting the physiological balance of aquatic organisms. Few studies have examined combined effects of these abiotic environmental stressors and antibiotics on aquatic ecosystems in a potential climate change scenario. This study evaluated the toxicity of environmentally relevant concentrations of su...
Thiamethoxam (TMX) is a widely used neonicotinoid insecticide with high water solubility, which increases the likelihood of contamination in freshwater systems. Here, we assessed lethal and sublethal effects of TMX on the early life stages of the Neotropical Amazonian fish Astyanax bimaculatus. Two assays were performed: (i) embryonic exposure under static conditions (0, 0.05, 0.5, 5, and 50 mg/L; 200 embryos per treatment) an...
In vivo evaluation of the anti-inflammatory efficacy of liposomes loaded with Echinacea purpurea roots extractsNARA Subscribed
WHO ranked chronic inflammatory diseases as the most significant cause of death. The current therapeutic approach is the constant administration of clinically available anti-inflammatory drugs; however, this strategy presents severe side effects. New entities derived from plants have shown their potential for developing safe and effective therapies. Particularly, Echinacea purpurea extracts have demonstrated strong anti-inflam...
Environmental drivers of early life-stage survival are critical to understanding recruitment variability and improving ecosystem-based fisheries management. We investigate how regional ocean circulation influences blue whiting ( Micromesistius poutassou ) recruitment in the Northeast Atlantic by combining multi-decadal transport analyses with Lagrangian particle simulations. Using ocean reanalysis, we compute 28-year (1993-202...
