Food Packaging Chemicals and Human Health: Molecular Toxicity, Exposure Pathways, and Regulatory Perspectives
Abstract: Food packaging plays a vital role in preserving food quality, extending shelf life, and ensuring safe transportation. However, increasing evidence indicates that chemicals from packaging materials can migrate into food during processing, storage, and consumption, resulting in chronic human exposure. Several food packaging chemicals, including bisphenols, phthalates, per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), styrene, heavy metals, and non-intentionally added substances (NIAS), have emerged as important xenobiotics due to their potential adverse …

The Impact of AI-Driven Real-Time Feedback Systems on Students’ Self-Regulated Learning and Academic Persistence in Secondary Schools, Nigeria
Abstract: Self-regulated learning (SRL) is essential for secondary school students to achieve academic success and lifelong learning competencies, particularly in contexts requiring greater learner autonomy. This expository article examines the potential of Artificial Intelligence (AI)-driven real-time feedback systems to support SRL processes—planning (forethought), monitoring (performance/control), and reflection—within Nigerian secondary education. Grounded in Zimmerman’s cyclical SRL model and Bandura’s Social Cognitive Theory, the paper conceptualises AI tools (e.g., intelligent tutoring systems, learning …
