Overview

What is he best known for?

The fields of study he is best known for:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

Ecology, Environmental chemistry, Genetics, Endocrine disruptor and Molecular biology are his primary areas of study. His Ecology research is multidisciplinary, relying on both Zoology and Metallothionein. He has included themes like Carbon cycle, Pollutant and Effluent in his Environmental chemistry study.

His studies in Endocrine disruptor integrate themes in fields like Vitellogenin, Bioassay and Nonylphenol. His Molecular biology research includes elements of Chromatin, Cell biology, RNA polymerase II, Topoisomerase and Transcription. His Transcription research includes themes of Promoter, SAGA complex, General transcription factor and Mutant.

His most cited work include:

  • Genetic isolation of ADA2: a potential transcriptional adaptor required for function of certain acidic activation domains. (376 citations)
  • Nucleosome positioning modulates accessibility of regulatory proteins to the mouse mammary tumor virus promoter. (330 citations)
  • Integrated procedure for determination of endocrine-disrupting activity in surface waters and sediments by use of the biological technique recombinant yeast assay and chemical analysis by LC-ESI-MS (142 citations)

What are the main themes of his work throughout his whole career to date?

His primary areas of investigation include Environmental chemistry, Ecology, Pollutant, Biochemistry and Zebrafish. His Environmental chemistry research is multidisciplinary, incorporating perspectives in Biological activity, Bioassay, Particulates and Toxicity. His work focuses on many connections between Bioassay and other disciplines, such as Chromatography, that overlap with his field of interest in Nonylphenol.

His biological study spans a wide range of topics, including Zoology, Daphnia magna and Metallothionein. The study incorporates disciplines such as Aryl hydrocarbon receptor, Water pollution and Pollution in addition to Pollutant. His Zebrafish study deals with Transcriptome intersecting with Metabolomics.

He most often published in these fields:

  • Environmental chemistry (17.24%)
  • Ecology (16.26%)
  • Pollutant (15.76%)

What were the highlights of his more recent work (between 2017-2021)?

  • Zebrafish (13.30%)
  • Transcriptome (10.34%)
  • Biochemistry (15.27%)

In recent papers he was focusing on the following fields of study:

His scientific interests lie mostly in Zebrafish, Transcriptome, Biochemistry, Metabolomics and Agriculture. He interconnects Phenotype, Internal medicine, Computational biology and Omics in the investigation of issues within Zebrafish. His research on Transcriptome also deals with topics like

  • Andrology which connect with Gene expression, Atrazine, Imidacloprid and Hsp70,
  • Toxicity which connect with Botany, Acid mine drainage, Ecotoxicology, Raphanus and Bioassay.

Benjamin Piña combines subjects such as Tributyltin and Daphnia magna with his study of Biochemistry. The concepts of his Daphnia magna study are interwoven with issues in Gene, Metabolic pathway, Serotonin, Lipid metabolism and Daphnia. His work in the fields of Metabolomics, such as Metabolome, intersects with other areas such as Status epilepticus.

Between 2017 and 2021, his most popular works were:

  • Ranking of crop plants according to their potential to uptake and accumulate contaminants of emerging concern (42 citations)
  • On the contribution of reclaimed wastewater irrigation to the potential exposure of humans to antibiotics, antibiotic resistant bacteria and antibiotic resistance genes – NEREUS COST Action ES1403 position paper (38 citations)
  • Assessment of endocrine disruptors effects on zebrafish (Danio rerio) embryos by untargeted LC-HRMS metabolomic analysis. (31 citations)

In his most recent research, the most cited papers focused on:

  • Gene
  • DNA
  • Enzyme

Benjamin Piña mainly investigates Zebrafish, Agriculture, Toxicity, Transcriptome and Agronomy. In his research on the topic of Zebrafish, Cell biology, Receptor, Swim bladder inflation, Endocrine disruptor and Neuropharmacology is strongly related with Phenotype. His work deals with themes such as Endocrinology and Internal medicine, which intersect with Neuropharmacology.

His Agriculture study integrates concerns from other disciplines, such as Wastewater, Reclaimed water and Irrigation. His research investigates the connection between Toxicity and topics such as Andrology that intersect with issues in Hsp70, Imidacloprid, Gene expression and Atrazine. His Metabolism study introduces a deeper knowledge of Biochemistry.
