Raman spectroscopy for crystallochemical analysis of Mg‐rich layered silicates: Serpentine and talc

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, Volume 54, Issue 12, Page 1502-1516, December 2023., 2023
Combined Raman‐scattering and WD‐EMP analyses of series of natural serpentine and talc minerals demonstrate that Raman spectroscopy can be used for the quantification of M‐site Mg and (Fe2+ + Mn2+) amounts in talc as well as M‐site Mg and Fe2+ contents in serpentines with relative uncertainties below 5%.

Preparation, Characteristics, and Application of Biopolymer Materials Reinforced with Lignocellulosic Fibres

International Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Various environmental concerns motivate scientists and researchers to look out for unique new materials in science and technology. In order to address the demand for polymeric materials with partial biodegradability, the usage of lignocellulosic fibre in the polymer matrix has risen. Lignocellulosic fibres are a cheap, easily renewable resource that is

[Retracted] Applications of Neural Network‐Based Plan‐Cancer Method for Primary Diagnosis of Mesothelioma Cancer

BioMed Research International, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
“Malignant mesothelioma (MM)” is an uncommon although fatal form of cancer. The proper MM diagnosis is crucial for efficient therapy and has significant medicolegal implications. Asbestos is a carcinogenic material that poses a health risk to humans.

Cytology of malignant pleural mesothelioma: Diagnostic criteria, WHO classification updates, and immunohistochemical staining markers diagnostic value

Diagnostic Cytopathology, Volume 50, Issue 11, Page 532-537, November 2022., 2022
Abstract Malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) is a rare but aggressive malignancy with a poor prognosis. Because of this tumor rarity and overlapping histologic features with other malignancy types, the histopathological findings and diagnostic immunohistochemical workup are essential in establishing the final diagnosis of MPMs.

Identification of iron compounds in chrysotile from the Balangero mine (Turin, Italy) by micro‐Raman spectroscopy

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, Volume 53, Issue 11, Page 1931-1941, November 2022., 2022
Fe‐bearing impurities associated with asbestos fibers were identified as Fe oxides, carbonates, and sulfides, including uncommonly reported phases in asbestos minerals. Abstract Chrysotile, one of the six regulated asbestos minerals, is classified as carcinogenic to humans by the International Agency for Research on Cancer.

Engineering siderophore production in Pseudomonas to improve asbestos weathering

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 15, Issue 9, Page 2351-2363, September 2022., 2022
Pseudomonas strains release iron from flocking asbestos waste through a siderophore‐driven mechanism. Modification of the regulation of the siderophore pyoverdine in Pseudomonas aeruginosa enables a higher level of pyoverdine production and an improvement of iron and magnesium extraction from asbestos fibers.

Fluid‐Enhanced Neotectonic Faulting in the Cratonic Lithosphere of the Nullarbor Plain in South‐Central Australia

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 49, Issue 14, 28 July 2022., 2022
Abstract The Nullarbor Plain is underlain by thick cratonic lithospheric mantle that is almost devoid of contemporary seismicity. Analysis of high‐resolution digital elevation models indicates neotectonic fault‐propagation fold traces on the nearly flat karst landscape that locally extend to lengths of >100 km, suggesting potential for hosting large ...

Identifying the polymorphs of serpentine with micro‐Raman spectroscopy: Clear separation in biaxial plots

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, Volume 53, Issue 7, Page 1312-1320, July 2022., 2022
The polymorph of serpentine, a water‐bearing phyllosilicate cray mineral found in terrestrial rocks and meteorites, was distinguished with Raman microspectroscopy. Although some of them were believed to be indistinguishable from Raman spectra, the present method based on biaxial plotting of two characteristic wavenumbers for their SiO‐related ...

The Availability of Limestone and Other Raw Materials for Ocean Alkalinity Enhancement

Global Biogeochemical Cycles, Volume 36, Issue 5, May 2022., 2022
Abstract The work assesses the availability and localizations of different raw materials suitable for ocean alkalinity enhancement (OAE), like limestone, olivine, magnesite and brucite, since several billion tons of rocky materials are needed to achieve meaningful results for carbon sequestration through OAE.
