A comprehensive review on the sources, environmental behavior, and degradation of alkylphenol ethoxylates and their metabolites in surface water and soils

Journal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Alkylphenol ethoxylates (APEOs) and their metabolites, widely used in agricultural, industrial, and household products, are known endocrine disruptors. Since the 1980s, many countries have implemented restrictions on their production and use, necessitating an evaluation of these regulations by reviewing their source and environmental behavior ...

Microbiological Characteristics of Pathogens Isolated From Blood Cultures of Patients With Acute Cholangitis: Insights From Patients With Biliary‐Enteric Anastomosis

Journal of Hepato-Biliary-Pancreatic Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background We aimed to investigate the microbiological characteristics of pathogens isolated from blood cultures (BCs) of patients with acute cholangitis (AC) after biliary‐enteric anastomosis and biliary intervention (BI). Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on 366 patients with AC and bacteremia between 2015 and 2024 at Hiroshima ...

Carnitine metabolism to trimethylamine by an unusual Rieske-type oxygenase from human microbiota [PDF]

, 2014
Dietary intake of L-carnitine can promote cardiovascular diseases in humans through microbial production of trimethylamine (TMA) and its subsequent oxidation to trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO) by hepatic flavin-containing monooxygenases.

Lipoic Acid Based Redox‐Responsive Degradable Antimicrobial Polymers

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial polymers are emerging as a vital tool against drug‐resistant pathogens. This article introduces a new class of degradable, disulfide‐containing polymers synthesized through reversible addition‐fragmentation chain transfer (RAFT) polymerization. These innovative materials, featuring benzyl lipoate, effectively combat Pseudomonas aeruginosa
