Bisphenol A (BPA), a ubiquitous chemical in plastics, impairs male reproductive function through oxidative stress, but paraprobiotics like heat-treated Enterococcus faecalis (FK-23) can successfully counteract this damage and restore sperm motility.

A critique of the linear non-threshold model used by the U.S. EPA to assess cancer risk:
https://www.acsh.org/news/2026/04/28/assessing-cancer-risk-its-time-follow-science-50084
As noted in the article, this is a politically contentious topic. The author has had a long career in both the public and private sector, and does not appear to have a political agenda.

🐧 Breaking news: #Penguins in Patagonia decide to ditch fish for a career in #toxicology, apparently detecting #PFAS chemicals by waddling around dramatically. 🤦♂️ Meanwhile, the article itself is so exclusive that it's hiding behind a 403 Forbidden error—as if anyone was dying to read about birds with lab coats. 🧪

Are red currants safe for dogs? Someone wants to put such a plant in my backyard as part of a study on hummingbirds.
A quick web search finds several sites claiming they're highly toxic and several claiming they're perfectly safe. Which ones are slop? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Dammit, Jim, I'm a computer scientist, not a veterinarian!

CW: Bad news: pesticides. But an very good approach to calculate ecological toxicity
RE: https://eupolicy.social/@Akshay/116192439506710815
"To determine global pesticide risk, the study researchers looked at data on pesticide use from 2013 to 2019 in 65 nations that collectively represent nearly 80% of global crop acreage. They then combined these statistics with data on the toxicity of 625 pesticides for eight different species groups, including aquatic invertebrates and plants, fish, pollinating insects, soil organisms, and terrestrial arthropods, plants and vertebrates."
This TAT [total applied toxicity] is a very good approach to measure ecotoxicity. This is very important since the often used "tons of pesticides applied" is quite useless when we are talking about substances with highly varying toxicity. 👌
Of many pesticides, we do not really know the toxicity, or there is a lack of scientific consensus because the agrochemical corporations play dirty and have an army of paid pseudo-scientists. Additionally, toxicological studies focus mainly on acute toxicity on humans and not on long-term adverse health effects or the effects of combinations of different pollutants. And the toxicity for ecosystem functions is seldom even considered.
May this TAT help us to not underestimate toxicity so much.@mongabay 🌱

Hey #emergencymedicine #toxicology peeps! Anyone in PDX interested in a fun experiment being run right now might consider doing a study of heavy metal levels in the blood of people gassed by ICE during recent and upcoming marches. We know many gas grenades have heavy metals in them, so there may be a publishable public health concern here. Just a thought after recent events…

And how some apologists retort "yeah well we have decades of data not showing harm"?
Turns out that old data that purportedly demonstrates safety was falsified!!!
