Drosophila melanogaster as a dynamic in vivo model organism reveals the hidden effects of interactions between microplastic/nanoplastic and heavy metals
(Journal of Applied Toxicology, 2022)
Plastic waste in different environments has been constantly transforming into microplastic/nanoplastic (MNPLs). As they may coexist with other contaminants, they may behave as vectors that transport various toxic trace ...
A comprehensive in vivo study using drosophila melanogaster: new insights into mechanisms and biological effects of permethrin nanopesticides
(The 6th ed. of the International Conference Nanotech France 2021, 2021)
Hazard assessment of the effects of acute and chronic exposure to permethrin, copper hydroxide, acephate, and validamycin nanopesticides on the physiology of drosophila: novel insights into the cellular internalization and biological effects
(International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022)
New insights into the interactions between nanopesticides and edible plants are required in order to elucidate their impacts on human health and agriculture. Nanopesticides include formulations consisting of organic/inorganic ...
Adverse biological effects of ingested polystyrene microplastics using Drosophila melanogaster as a model in vivo organism
(Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, Part A: Current Issues, 2021)
The abundant presence and extensive use of polystyrene microplastics (PSMPs) has recently
become a serious environmental concern, as impact of exposure to these substances on human
health remains unknown. While in vitro ...
Drosophila as a model for assessing nanopesticide toxicity
(Nanotoxicology, 2020)
One of the fastest-moving fields in today’s world of applied science, nanotechnology allows the control and design of matter on an extremely small scale, so it has now become an integral part of various industries and ...
Novel insights into acute/chronic genotoxic impact of exposure to tungsten oxide nanoparticles on Drosophila melanogaster
(Journal of Nanoparticle Research, 2022)
Tungsten oxide nanoparticles (WO3 NPs) have now been employed by various products including electronics, smart screens, gas-biosensors, water purifiers, disinfectants, and biomedical applications. Despite this wide-ranging ...
Drosophila: a promising model for evaluating the toxicity of environmental pollutants
(Karaelmas Fen ve Mühendislik Dergisi, 2022)
Environmental contamination has now become a major global issue with adverse effects on our health and food security. Humans and animals are being exposed to debilitating levels of contamination on a daily basis. Across ...
Potential genotoxic and biological effects of 1,4 dioxane on different model organisms
(Current Opinion in Environmental Science & Health, 2023)
A suspected human carcinogen, the compound 1,4-dioxane (DXN) has been commonly employed as a solvent in the production of various cleaning applications, cosmetics, dyes, varnishes, waxes, and detergents. Leaked from ...
