Historic variation of trace elements in pinnipeds with spatially segregated trophic habits reveals differences in exposure to pollution

Maite De Maria et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the historic changes in trace element concentrations in teeth of two species of pinnipeds in the Uruguayan coastline from 1941 to present day. The results showed differential exposure to trace elements depending on feeding areas and diet, with one species having higher levels of certain elements due to industrial activities in the '70s and '80s. Dentin was highlighted as a reliable matrix for historic studies on trace element exposure.

Characterization of elemental distribution across human dentin-enamel junction by scanning electron microscopy with energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy

Rong Wang et al.

Summary: The DEJ in human teeth is a crucial junction between enamel and dentin, with unclear structure, chemical composition, and function. This study discovered abrupt changes in the distributions of six elements across the DEJ, shedding light on the mysteries surrounding this important dental structure.

Walrus teeth as biomonitors of trace elements in Arctic marine ecosystems

Casey T. Clark et al.

Summary: This study investigated trace element concentrations in the teeth of Pacific walruses, finding that these concentrations reflect environmental exposure and dietary intake. The research highlights the complex roles of trace elements in animal tissues, with physiology playing a key role in modulating tooth trace element concentrations in walrus teeth.
