Water Research, 2012 Estrogenic compounds in drinking water sources pose potential threats to human health. Treatment technologies are needed to effectively remove these compounds for the production of safe drinking water. In this study, GAC adsorption was first tested for its ability to remove a model estrogenic compound, 17β-estradiol (E2).

Advanced Science, EarlyView.We demonstrate that Cars2, a cysteine catabolic enzyme in mouse iBAT, is critical for cold tolerance and brown adipocyte differentiation. Through its CPERS activity, Cars2 produces CysSSH/H2S to induce EBF2 persulfidation, promoting its interaction with PPARγ and BRG1 to enhance thermogenic gene expression.

Journal of Life Science, 2007 The Biological Activated Carbon (BAC) process in the water treatments represents a kind of biofiltration process which capabilities of bacteria to remove organic matters are maximized. It enables to eliminate organic matters and effectively reduce microbial regrowth potentials. As attached bacteria employ natural organic matter as a substrate, they are

Community analysis and recovery of phenol-degrading bacteria from drinking water biofilters
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2016 Phenol is a ubiquitous organic contaminant in drinking water. Biodegradation plays an important role in the elimination of phenol pollution in the environment, but the information about phenol removal by drinking water biofilters is still lacking. Herein,

Genetic code expansion for chemosensing and chemical actuation of biological functions
Bulletin of the Korean Chemical Society, EarlyView.Genetic code expansion (GCE) broadens the chemical repertoire for precise control of protein function in biological systems. This review highlights GCE‐based sensing and actuating systems that operate through selective interactions between noncanonical amino acids and chemical triggers.

Flow configuration shapes microbiome assembly and function in full-scale drinking water BAC filters
Water Research XTo address the challenges of traditional down-flow biological activated carbon (BAC) filters, up-flow filters have been increasingly applied in drinking water treatment plants (DWTPs), yet their microbial characteristics and underlying assembly ...

Journal of Sleep Research, Volume 34, Issue 2, April 2025.This scheme illustrates the main results of the present study showing an increase in circulating free fatty acids (FFA) that are likely to be related to several mechanisms like decrease in FFA insulin sensitivity and increase in FFA production. Significant changes are labelled in white, and non‐significant or hypothesis are labelled in pale green ...
