This study investigates the impact of this substance on key cellular, physiological, and biochemical endpoints in the Mediterranean mussel (<em>Mytilus galloprovincialis</em>). Mussels were exposed for 14 days to two sublethal CMIT concentrations (0.01 and 0.1 mg L⁻¹), and responses were assessed in haemocytes (H) and digestive gland (DG). Cytotoxic effects were determined in H and DG through cell viability assays. Phagocytic activity was quantified in H. The osmoregulatory performance of DG isolated cells was evaluated using the Regulatory Volume Decrease (RVD) assay. Furthermore, oxidative stress biomarkers catalase and glutathione (GHS/GSSG), cytochrome P450-related activity (EROD) and neurotoxicity were measured in DG. Results revealed significant impairments in physiological functionality and osmoregulatory capacity, accompanied by high susceptibility of biochemical responses. In the DG, a clear association was observed between EROD activation and oxidative stress manifestations indicating the toxicity of CMIT derivatives. Overall, these findings confirm CMIT's toxic potential toward vital physiological and biochemical processes in <em>M. galloprovincialis</em> and provide a basis for further research aimed at demonstrating the ecological consequences of isothiazolinone contamination, with potential implications for both marine ecosystem health and human well-being.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11539,"journal":{"name":"Emerging Contaminants","volume":"12 1","pages":"Article 100617"},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145836833","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Interpretable analyses of the model revealed that charge balance and electrophilic potential points are key determinants of the toxicity of OPIs. Combined with structural fragmentation analysis, replacing chlorophenyl with fluorophenyl, sulfur with oxygen, and long alkyl chains with short alkyl chains can mitigate OPIs toxicity.

The highest DEHP concentrations, 40.32 μg/g and 38.95 μg/g, were recorded in the office spaces from two different nearby universities, reflecting the influence of human activity and indoor sources. Newer buildings exhibited elevated DEHP levels, likely due to emissions from construction and furnishing materials. Medical centers with better ventilation showed the lowest concentrations, revealing the importance of air exchange in contaminant reduction.

The objectives of this study were to explore the changes in ARGs in soil, as well as the potential mechanisms between BS application dosages and ARG patterns through Illumina sequencing and high-throughput quantitative PCR under five amounts of BS application according to the nitrogen contents. Results indicated that no significant alterations were noticed in the abundance of ARGs under low BS applications (0–120 kg N ha⁻¹) comparing to S0, and bacterial networks with different network hubs indicated that significant relationships occurred at high BS treatment (180 kg N ha⁻¹), as well as the highest abundance of ARGs and bacterial abundance observed.

In summary, low nitrogen contents within BS (under 180 kg N ha⁻¹) reduced the increase of ARGs in soil, high nitrogen contents (180–240 kg N ha⁻¹) could directly elevate the abundance of ARGs through the introduction of amended nitrogen, disinfection effect of BS played a key role in the decrease of ARGs under anaerobic environments (above 240 kg N ha⁻¹).

Our results demonstrate that, compared to pure water systems, polystyrene (PS) MPs exhibited significantly enhanced Cs⁺ adsorption capacity in simulated seawater (by up to 1.76 times), with NaCl identified as the primary contributor. Kinetic and isotherm models further revealed that NaCl significantly boosts Cs⁺ adsorption by PS MPs without altering the underlying physical multilayer adsorption mechanism. Surface characterization analysis indicated that NaCl can increase the adsorption sites for Cs⁺ by enhancing the surface roughness of PS MPs. Spectroscopic analysis suggested that the benzene rings of PS MPs play an important role in the Cs⁺ adsorption process. Density functional theory calculations further elucidated that the enhanced Cs⁺ adsorption capacity onto the benzene rings of PS MPs primarily stems from NaCl-induced amplification of dispersion (van der Waals), electrostatic, and particularly polarization effects. These findings provide first atomistic view of seawater ion-facilitated Cs⁺ adsorption on MPs, offering critical theoretical support for the ecological risk assessment of co-occurring MPs and radionuclides in marine ecosystems.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":11539,"journal":{"name":"Emerging Contaminants","volume":"12 1","pages":"Article 100621"},"PeriodicalIF":6.9,"publicationDate":"2026-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145879981","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

By combining high-resolution mass spectrometry, non-targeted analysis, multi-omics integration, wearable sensors, and computational tools, exposomics can capture the complexity of real-world chemical mixtures and uncover exposures missed by conventional monitoring. We conducted a scoping review following PRISMA-ScR guidelines to map how exposomic approaches have been applied to the detection and characterisation of under-regulated or previously unknown contaminants. Searches of four bibliographic databases and targeted grey literature (2015–2025) yielded 67 eligible studies, of which 42 were charted quantitatively. The evidence was heavily concentrated in high-income countries and focused on pesticides, PFAS, and heavy metals, with metabolic, developmental, and epigenetic outcomes most frequently reported. Across this landscape, 17 priority compounds emerged where exposomics revealed either new detections or novel biological effects, including halobenzoquinones, GenX, bisphenol S, microplastics, tungsten, and 3-hydroxyoctanedioic acid. These case exemplars illustrate how exposomics can expand hazard characterisation and provide early warning of risks that are invisible to targeted surveillance. At the same time, critical gaps persist, particularly in geographic coverage, longitudinal cohorts, data infrastructures, and mixture analysis tools.
