Comprehensive three-dimensional microCT and signaling analysis reveal the teratogenic effect of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin on craniofacial bone development in mice by Xiao-ming Wang, Cai-ming Qin, Dou Li, Xin-ran Xu, Xiao-jing Pan, Hui Xue

“…By treating pregnant mice with TCDD (40 μg/kg) at the vital craniofacial patterning stages (embryonic day 8.5, 10.5 and 12.5), and scanning and reconstructing the skulls at embryonic day 18.5 using microCT, we found that TCDD exposure at the earlier and later patterning stages induced variable craniofacial malformations, including premature fusion of metopic and coronal sutures, truncated palatal processes of maxillary and palatine bones, as well as opening oriented pterygoid processes. …”

Deposition behaviors and interfacial interaction mechanism between carboxyl-modified polystyrene nanoplastics and magnetite in aquatic environment by Meimei Ran, Xin Nie, Jingxin Wang, Ruiyin Xie, Xiaoping Lin, Hanjun Zhu, Quan Wan, Yuhong Fu

“…Increasing pH could significantly inhibit the deposition of COOH-PSNPs with magnetite. At pH 6.5, phosphate and dichromate significantly inhibited the deposition of COOH-PSNPs since their competitive adsorption for the surface sites on magnetite led to a potential reversal of magnetite, resulting in the strong electrostatic repulsion between COOH-PSNPs and magnetite. …”
