Trichothecenes and Stachybotrys: Context Without Panic
Stachybotrys chartarum (“black mold”) can produce trichothecenes in culture, but residential disease claims outran evidence. Dampness remediation still matters; toxin folklore is not the mechanism card for every symptom.

Microplastics Dose Metrics: Uncertainty and the Credit-Card Claim
Particle counts, mass, polymer type, and size bins are not interchangeable doses. The “credit card per week” mass claim fails error analysis—treat viral numbers as suspect until methods align.

EMF Personal Decisions and Risk Communication Guide
Band → exposure tier → evidence grade → low-cost habits first. Measure rare high-µT homes; do not let EMF anxiety crowd out sleep, smoking, radon, and road risk.

Microplastics Risk Communication: Evidence Gaps and Myth Scrubbing
Use known–unknown–next framing. Reject the credit-card-per-week meme. Suspected harm is not the same as proven doom—or proven safety.

Microplastics Dose Metrics and Measurement Uncertainty
Particle counts and polymer mass are not interchangeable. Cox intake models are lower bounds vs nano-era methods. The credit-card-per-week claim fails error analysis.

Evidence Grading Framework for EMF Health Claims
An explicit ladder from established biophysics to anecdote—grade each endpoint×band pair, never “EMF” as a monolith.

IARC EMF Group 2B: What “Possibly Carcinogenic” Actually Means
Hazard identification is not a quantitative risk score—and 2B is not Group 1.

EMF Exposure Evidence Guide: ELF, RF, Limits & Practical Mitigation
Non-ionizing EMF explained with band, metric, and evidence grade on every claim — IARC 2B context, childhood leukemia bands, phone cancer cohorts, fertility dual-reports, EHS, FCC/ICNIRP limits, and distance-time-mode mitigation.
