There was a significant difference in the acetylcholinesterase levels (p = <0.001) between the exposed and control groups. There was also a significant correlation between acetylcholinesterase levels and the length of the comet tail in the exposed group (p = 0.028) and in the combined groups (p < 0.001). The distance from the children's houses to the paddy field ranged from less than 100 m to more than 1,000 m, and acetylcholinesterase levels showed a significant relationship with micronucleus frequency and comet assay. Cycling showed a significant relationship with the micronucleus frequency. A distance of less than 100 m from home to school, completion of primary school, and having a father who worked as a farmer were significantly associated with the comet assay. The children exposed to organophosphate pesticides exhibit lower levels of acetylcholinesterase and an increase in comet tail length, indicating heightened DNA damage.","PeriodicalId":14039,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Environmental Health Research","volume":" ","pages":"1-12"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144005327","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study evaluates the potential of a nanoemulsion of Tetraclinis articulata essential oil (NANO-TA) as a natural elicitor to enhance the technological and phenolic maturity of Red Globe grapes in an organic cultivation system. Vine plants were treated with NANO-TA, formulated from an essential oil rich in α-pinene (17.43%) and bornyl acetate (22.29%). Treated grapes showed faster maturation, with an increased pH (3.96 vs. 3.87), higher soluble solids (16.54 vs. 15.32°Brix), and improved maturity index (17.98 vs. 16.13), alongside reduced titratable acidity (10.40 g/L vs. 12.18 g/L). Enhanced berry coloration (CIRG 4.18 vs. 3.67) further confirmed its effect on fruit ripening. In early veraison, treated grapes exhibited higher polyphenol levels and antioxidant activity. However, at full maturity, untreated grapes accumulated more polyphenols and flavonoids (2.33 mg GAE/mL and 3.08 mg QE/mL vs. 1.22 mg GAE/mL and 2.3 mg QE/mL) and showed greater antioxidant activity (61.18% vs. 51.55% DPPH inhibition), likely due to a dilution effect in larger berries. These findings suggest that NANO-TA accelerates grape maturation naturally and enhances key quality indicators, positioning it as a sustainable alternative to synthetic agrochemicals in organic viticulture.","PeriodicalId":14039,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Environmental Health Research","volume":" ","pages":"1-13"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143999064","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

We examined exposure concentrations, oral intake, and risks for primary-school students in their living environments (home, classroom, and outdoor) in Jinan. We collected 138 dust samples and focused on 13 common phthalates. Phthalates were ubiquitous across all environments, with di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP), di-n-butyl phthalate (DnBP), and di-iso-butyl phthalate (DiBP) representing the highest proportions. Concentrations varied by environment: girls' bedrooms > boys' bedrooms, girls' living rooms > boys' living rooms, homes > classrooms > outdoors, and urban outdoors > suburban outdoors. Factors such as PM2.5 levels, the use of personal care products, item types, and fabric types influenced indoor phthalate concentrations. Oral exposure data showed that the home is the primary exposure environment, accounting for 51%-88%, followed by the classroom and outdoor environments. The carcinogenic risk associated with DEHP exceeded acceptable limits for all children, with four children exhibiting hazard index values greater than 1. We provide significant data on phthalate exposure in primary school children and suggest that exposure reduction strategies should focus on DEHP, DnBP, and DiBP in both homes and classrooms.","PeriodicalId":14039,"journal":{"name":"International Journal of Environmental Health Research","volume":" ","pages":"1-19"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2025-04-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143986665","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

After adjusting for covariates, it was found that exposure to carbon monoxide (CO), sulfur dioxide (SO2), ozone (O3), fine particulate matter (PM2.5), and inhalable particulate matter (PM10) was associated with decreased gestational length, while nitrogen dioxide (NO2) exposure was associated with increased gestational length (p < 0.05). Furthermore, mothers carrying the A allele of SOD2 rs4880 had an increment of 0.17 weeks in gestational length compared to those carrying the G allele (p < 0.05). Interactions on gestational length between SOD2 gene polymorphisms (rs4880, rs5746136, and rs2758352) and exposure to CO, NO2, SO2, PM2.5, and PM10 were observed.
