TL;DR

Two application models—a hypothetical localized PFAS plume involving waterfowl and dairy cattle and an evidence-informed Arctic sled dog model for chronic long-range transported mixtures—illustrate how animal signals can support exposure reconstruction, hotspot identification, and public-health prioritization.

Environmental surveillance: harnessing environmental sample data to protect animal health

Infectious diseases in domestic animals—including those with zoonotic potential—impose a substantial global burden on food security, livelihoods, and public health. Environmental surveillance (ES) offers a critical complement to conventional animal-level diagnostics by detecting pathogens or their genetic signatures di...

Regulatory challenges in managing emerging contaminants (ECs): a global review perspective scientific barriers, policy response, and future directions

Emerging contaminants (ECs) comprise a diverse group of synthetic and naturally occurring chemicals that are not routinely monitored but are increasingly recognized for their potential risks to ecosystems and human health. Many ECs, such as pharmaceuticals, personal care products, endocrine-disrupting compounds, pest...

Pesticide residues in animal feed: emerging risks for animal health and crop production

Pesticides are essential for maximizing crop yields and ensuring food security, yet concerns are growing about their accumulation in the food chain. While human dietary exposure has received considerable attention, pesticide residues in animal feed represent a critical, underexplored pathway that can affect livesto...

A Snapshot of Pesticide Residues in Human, Animal, and Environmental Samples Across 10 European Countries

Intensive pesticide use raises concerns for environmental, human, and animal health, yet Europe-wide data on exposure remain fragmented. In this study, 224 pesticide residues were analysed in environmental and biological samples collected during the 2021 growing season across 10 European sites, covering conventional an...

From Food Additives and Contaminants to the Human Exposome: A Precision Toxicology Framework for Next-Generation Food Safety

Human exposure to foodborne xenobiotics, including environmental contaminants that enter the food chain, is no longer adequately represented by isolated chemicals. Individuals encounter complex and dynamic mixtures of food additives, pesticide residues, veterinary drugs, mycotoxins, processing contaminants, packaging m...

Emerging Contaminants in Groundwater Resources: From Occurrence and Risk Assessment to Advanced Remediation

Groundwater is a major source of drinking water, irrigation and industrial supply, yet its apparent protection from surface disturbances can be misleading. A diverse group of emerging contaminants (ECs)—including pharmaceuticals and personal-care products, endocrine-disrupting compounds, pesticides, per- and polyfluoro...
