Titanium dioxide nanoparticles (TiONPs) as an emerging pollutant in aquatic environments can interact with metals reducing or enhancing their toxicity in these environments. This study examined and compared the toxic effects of mercury ions (Hg ions) on immobilization percentage, fatty acid profile, and oxidative stress of nauplii, individually (Hg) and simultaneously in the presence of 0.10 mg.

Mercury pollution is a significant environmental issue, primarily resulting from industrial activities, including gold mining extraction. In this study, 333 microorganisms were tested in increasing mercury concentrations, where 158 bacteria and 14 fungi were able to grow and remain viable at concentrations over 5.0 mg/L of mercuric chloride (II).

Mercury is a highly toxic metal that causes a variety of neurological disorders through oxidative stress. Allium sativum, a cooking spice in diverse cultures around the world, has a long history of medicinal use due to its rich antioxidant constituents. This study was designed to evaluate the protective activity of aqueous Allium sativum bulb extract (ASBE) on mercuric chloride (HgCl)-induced neurotoxicity.

Chronic exposure to low doses of mercury, one of the ten most dangerous chemicals for public health, has been associated with problems in fertility. Our study aims to investigate the effect of chronic exposure to a low dose of mercury chloride on the reproductive health of female mice and maternal behavior throughout generations using the maternal lineage for the first and second generations, either by direct exposure with F1 and F2 or via the germ cells with F2'. To our knowledge, these modalities have never been addressed before.
