Traditionally, chemical exposure has been assessed by low-resolution mass spectrometry via targeted approaches due to the typically extremely low concentration of such compounds in biological samples. Nevertheless, untargeted approaches are now becoming a promising tool for a broader investigatio...

Exposure to synthetic and natural chemicals is a major environmental risk factor in the etiology of many chronic diseases. Investigating complex co-exposures is necessary for a holistic assessment in exposome-wide association studies. In this work, a sensitive liquid chromatography-tandem mass sp...

Microplastics and nanoplastics are commonly found in our everyday environments. So far, microplastics and nanoplastics have been detected in various tissues and bodily fluids, including hair, sputum, digestive tissue, lungs, blood, and placental tissue. Although some studies indicate that micropl...

Gregarines are usually classified as parasites, but recent studies suggest that they should be viewed on a parasitism-mutualism spectrum and may even be seen as part of the gut microbiota of host insects. As such, they may also impact the consumption of their hosts and/or be involved in the diges...

Chassis strain suitable for producing multiple compounds is a central concept in synthetic biology. Design of a chassis using computational, first-principle, models is particularly attractive due to the predictability and control it offers, including against phenotype reversal due to adaptive mut...
