The skin is the main route of exposure to plant protection products for operators, workers, residents, and bystanders. Assessing dermal absorption is key for evaluating pesticide exposure. The initial approach to risk assessment involves using defaul...
INTRODUCTION: Pesticides play a pivotal role in ensuring food security, and the development of green pesticides is an inevitable trend in global agricultural progress. Although deep learning-based generative models have revolutionized de novo drug de...
Ecotoxicity assessments, which rely on animal testing, face serious challenges, including high costs and ethical concerns. Computational toxicology presents a promising alternative; nevertheless, existing predictive models encounter difficulties such...
Even at trace concentrations, micropollutants, including pesticides and pharmaceuticals, pose considerable ecological risks, and the increasing presence of synthetic chemical substances in aquatic systems has emerged as a growing concern. Moreover, l...
The widespread use of pesticides, including diazinon, poses an increased risk of environmental pollution and detrimental effects on biodiversity, food security, and water resources. In this study, we investigated the impact of Potentially Toxic Eleme...
Insect populations are declining globally, with multiple potential drivers identified. However, experimental data are needed to understand their relative contributions. We highlight the sublethal effects of pesticides at field-relevant concentrations...
Pesticides typically co-occur in agricultural surface waters and pose a potential threat to human and ecosystem health. As pesticide screening in global agricultural surface waters is an immense analytical challenge, a detailed risk picture of pestic...
