ABSTRACT Chronic inflammation and heme‐iron overload can result from bacterial hemolysis. Along with the synthetic drugs, numerous traditional functional food approaches are equally trialed to eradicate problem. As a prospective new source of dietary protein hydrolysates, freshwater mollusks ( Paludomas conica ) have recently drawn huge interest researchers. In this research, hydrolysate (PhPC) , prepared by enzyme digestion method, was analyzed for proximate nutritional minerals contents deciphered its suppressive effects on inflammatory gene expression in LPS‐stimulated RAW264.7 macrophage cells.

Laboratory studies show detrimental effects of metal pollutants on invertebrate behaviour and cognition, even at low levels. Here, we report a field study Western honey bees sampled from an historic mining site heavily contaminated with metalloid pollution, particularly arsenic. We analysed more than 1,000 five apiaries within 11 km the world’s largest gold mine in Southern France. Bees collected close to exhibited decreased olfactory learning memory performances developed smaller heads. Three-dimensional scans bee brains showed that centres were also smaller, indicating impairment brain. Our raises serious concerns about health populations metal-polluted areas illustrates how standard cognitive tests can be used for risk assessment.
