Milk has a high nutritional value. However, milk is easily contaminated in the production, processing, and storage processes, which harms consumers' health. Therefore, the harmful substances' detection in milk is important. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have proven high potential in food safety...

Aflatoxin M₁ (AFM₁) is a highly carcinogenic and toxic compound that is commonly found in dairy foods such as milk. We developed an electrochemical MIP (molecularly imprinted polymer) and aptamer (Apt) based aptasensor (Apt-Au@PEIM/AFM₁/MIP-Apt/(AuNPs)/GCE) with dual-recognition signal...

To get rid of the singularity of the detection of veterinary drug residues in liquid milk, a high-throughput determination was developed for 126 VDRs in 17 categories in liquid milk based on the one-step extraction coupled with LC-HRMS (UPLC-Q-Exactive-Orbitrap-MS). The results showed that adding...

On the fish Labeo rohita, the impact of a sublethal dose of cadmium (0.01 μg/lt) was tested on blood glucose, liver glycogen, and muscle glycogen. The first day of exposure resulted in an increase in the blood glucose level, which then steadily dropped between the seventh and fifteenth day. Their...

In this study, the effects of various concentrations (5, 10, 50, 100 and 200 mg/L) of copper oxide (CuO) and iron oxide (Fe₂O₃) nanoparticles (NPs) on growth, lipid peroxidation and activity of catalase and ascorbate peroxidase enzymes were investigated. The results showed that concentrations of...

Cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2) belongs to a large family of proteins and plays a crucial role in the regulation of arachidonic acid metabolism and inflammation cascade in zebrafish (Danio rerio). This enzyme with a molecular weight of 85 kDa, has two distinct domains. One is the regulatory and...

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a common environmental chemical with a range of potential adverse health effects. The impact of environmentally-relevant low dose of BPA on the electrical properties of the hearts of large animals (e.g., dog, human) is poorly defined. Perturbation of cardiac electrical...

The exceptional thermal and chemical stability and the amphiphilicity of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) have resulted in widespread use and subsequent contamination in environmental media and biota. Concerns surrounding toxicity have led to numerous animal-based toxicity studies. Due to ...

Introduction: Mono-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP) represents a toxicological risk for marine organisms due to its widespread presence in aquatic environments. Methods. MEHP effects on cell viability, cell death and genotoxicity were investigated on the DLEC cell line, derived from early embryos of ...

We report pathophysiology of chronic Terminalia oblongata (yellow-wood) intoxication in sheep. Leaf was dried, milled and drenched intraruminally to 7 sheep at various doses over several weeks. Chronic administration reduced rumen movements, induced inappetence or anorexia, body weight loss,...
