In recent years, the industrial substitution of long-chain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) with short-chain alternatives has become increasingly prevalent, resulting in the widespread environmental detection of perfluorohexanesulfonic acid (PFHxS), a short-chain PFAS. However, there remains limited information about the potential adverse effects of PFHxS at environmental concentrations

Thiamine deficiency complex (TDC) has been identified in an ever-expanding list of species and populations. In many documented occurrences of TDC in fishes, juvenile mortality can be high—up to 90% at the population level. Such sweeping demographic losses and concomitant decreases in genetic diversity due to TDC can be prevented by treating pre-spawn females or fertilized eggs with supplemental th

Bisphenol A (BPA) is a widely used industrial compound found in polycarbonate plastics, epoxy resin, and various polymer materials, leading to its ubiquitous presence in the environment. The toxicity of BPA to aquatic organisms has been well documented following in vivo exposure scenarios, with known cytotoxic and endocrine-disrupting effects. As such, BPA was used in this study as a well-characte
