CLERMONT-FERRAND, FRANCE / ACCESSWIRE / May 18, 2023 / According to a recent study by Université Clermont Auvergne researchers, exposure to chemical additives and building blocks commonly used in everyday plastic products, even in low doses, can cause significant damage to the genetic material carried by sperm cells.
To view this piece of content from www.accesswire.com, please give your consent at the top of this page.The study, led by Professor Joël Drevet, examined two common chemicals widely used in the plastic industry: dibutyl phthalate and bisphenol AF. These chemicals have long been linked to lowering male fertility, but the novelty of this study was in evaluating doses that were previously considered safe or inconsequential for consumers. While researchers found no appreciable effect on general semen parameters typically examined in fertility clinics such as sperm counts and motility, significant oxidation and decompaction of DNA structure in sperm cells were observed. This is concerning because damage to paternal genetic material can expose the female partner to higher risk of pregnancy loss and potentially impact the health of the offspring. Interestingly, the study also showed that co-administration with micronutrient supplement Fertilix® significantly blocked the damaging effects of these chemicals on sperm DNA.
Given that microplastics are found everywhere in our surroundings, these findings underscore the importance of greater public awareness and the urgency for the plastic industry to replace such substances with biodegradable or natural alternatives. Furthermore, fertility experts counseling couples ahead of natural or assisted conception should advocate for preconceptual supplementation and possible lifestyle modifications that may mitigate the impact of environmental pollutants.
This study is now available with open-access in Antioxidants, a premier journal in antioxidant research, and can be downloaded here. CellOxess Biotechnology, the designer and manufacturer of Fertilix® formulations, will present the full results of this study at the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) annual meeting this June in Copenhagen, Denmark.

Tenstorrent Unveils TT-QuietBox(TM) 2, the First RISC-V AI Workstation With a Fully Open-Source Stack to Deliver Teraflop-Class Inference11.3.2026 17:00:00 CET | Press release
Liquid-Cooled Desktop System Runs Models up to 120B Parameters Locally With a Fully Open-Source Stack, Starting at $9,999 SANTA CLARA, CA / ACCESS Newswire / March 11, 2026 / Tenstorrent, the AI computing company led by CEO Jim Keller, today announced TT-QuietBox™ 2 (Blackhole™). This whisper-quiet, liquid-cooled AI workstation runs models up to 120 billion parameters directly at your desk, ships with an entirely open-source software stack from compiler to kernel, and starts at $9,999. It marks the industry's first desktop AI workstation built on RISC-V architecture to deliver teraflop-class inference. The Inference Imperative The timing matters. Inference has quietly overtaken training as the dominant AI workload, now accounting for more than 55% of cloud AI infrastructure spending at $37.5 billion - and it is still accelerating. Yet, developers running these workloads face a stark choice: pay per-token cloud fees that compound as usage scales, or buy hardware locked to proprietary st
Clockwork.io Introduces A New Class of Fault Tolerance to End Failure-Driven GPU Waste in AI Training11.3.2026 14:00:00 CET | Press release
New TorchPass solution addresses a multi-million dollar challenge with AI infrastructure; uses Live GPU Migration to keep large-scale AI training running through hardware failures instead of forcing costly restarts PALO ALTO, CA / ACCESS Newswire / March 11, 2026 / Clockwork.io, the leader in Software-Driven AI Fabrics™- a programmable, vendor-neutral software layer that optimizes large-scale GPU clusters for real-time observability, fault tolerance, and deterministic performance-today announced the general availability of TorchPass Workload Fault Tolerance. This new class of software-driven fault-tolerance eliminates one of the most costly failure modes in large-scale AI training: catastrophic job restarts caused by infrastructure faults. Delivered as a core capability of the Clockwork.io FleetIQ™ platform, TorchPass applies the principles of Software-Driven AI Fabrics to distributed training, using Live GPU Migration to allow workloads to continue running through GPU failures, networ

Context Management Powers Production-Ready AI Analytics at Enterprise Scale11.3.2026 09:00:00 CET | Press release
GoodData delivers governed semantics, grounded knowledge, guided behavior, and full observability for reliable AI analytics. SAN FRANCISCO, CALIFORNIA / ACCESS Newswire / March 11, 2026 / GoodData today introduced Context Management, a governed contextual layer designed to enable production-ready enterprise AI analytics and agents. As organizations deploy AI assistants, copilots, and autonomous agents, they encounter a structural gap: AI lacks enforced business context, governance, and observability. AI pilots demonstrate potential, but moving AI into production exposes the deeper challenge of ensuring answers are consistent, safe, and explainable at scale. Without semantics and traceability, answers shift depending on phrasing. Business rules are applied inconsistently. When outputs change, teams can't explain why. For enterprises, this erodes trust and slows adoption. Many AI analytics platforms rely on prompts, inferred metadata, or loosely integrated document search. Context is sug
