  Pühl, Magdalena; Roiger, Anke; Fiehn, Alina; Gorchov Negron, Alan M.; Kort, Eric A.; Schwietzke, Stefan; Pisso, Ignacio; Foulds, Amy; Lee, James; France, James L.; Jones, Anna E.; Lowry, Dave; Fisher, Rebecca E.; Huang, Langwen; Shaw, Jacob; Bateson, Prudence; Andrews, Stephen; Young, Stuart; Dominutti, Pamela; Lachlan-Cope, Tom; Weiss, Alexandra; Allen, Grant (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)

  Atmospheric methane (CH4) concentrations have more than doubled since the beginning of the industrial age, making CH4 the second most important anthropogenic greenhouse gas after carbon dioxide (CO2). The oil and gas sector ...

• Recent advances and current challenges of new approach methodologies in developmental and adult neurotoxicity testing 

  Serafini, Melania Maria; Sepheri, Sara; Midali, Miriam; Stinckens, Marth; Biesiekierska, Marta; Wolniakowska, Anna; Gatzios, Alexandra; Rundén-Pran, Elise; Reszka, Edyta; Marinovich, Marina; Vanhaecke, Tamara; Roszak, Joanna; Viviani, Barbara; Tanima, SenGupta (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)

  Adult neurotoxicity (ANT) and developmental neurotoxicity (DNT) assessments aim to understand the adverse effects and underlying mechanisms of toxicants on the human nervous system. In recent years, there has been an ...

• Can plastic related chemicals be indicators of plastic ingestion in an Arctic seabird? 

  Collard, France; Tulatz, Felix; Harju, Mikael; Herzke, Dorte; Bourgeon, Sophie; Gabrielsen, Geir Wing (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)

  For decades, the northern fulmar (Fulmarus glacialis) has been found to ingest and accumulate high loads of plastic due to its feeding ecology and digestive tract morphology. Plastic ingestion can lead to both physical and ...

• Hazard assessment of nanomaterials using in vitro toxicity assays: Guidance on potential assay interferences and mitigating actions to avoid biased results 

  El Yamani, Naouale; Rundén-Pran, Elise; Varet, Julia; Beus, Maja; Dusinska, Maria; Fessard, Valerie; Moschini, Elisa; Serchi, Tommaso; Cimpan, Mihaela-Roxana; Lynch, Iseult; Vinković Vrček, ivana (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)

  The movement towards an animal-free testing approach for risk assessment represents a key paradigm shift in toxicology. Risk assessment of engineered and anthropogenic nanoscale materials (NM) is dependent on reliable ...

• Modelled sources of airborne microplastics collected at a remote Southern Hemisphere site 

  Aves, Alex; Ruffell, Helena; Evangeliou, Nikolaos; Gaw, Sally; Revell, Laura E. (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2024)

  Airborne microplastics have emerged in recent years as ubiquitous atmospheric pollutants. However, data from the Southern Hemisphere, and remote regions in particular, are sparse. Here, we report airborne microplastic ...
