Synthesis and application of alginate@CuFe2O4 polymeric spheres in 17‐β‐estradiol adsorption processes in Amazonian rivers

Polymer International, EarlyView.
Magnetic alginate beads, functionalized with copper ferrite, effectively remove 17‐β‐estradiol from Amazonian water, exhibiting optimized 238.65 μg g−1 capacity, fast 40 min kinetics, easy recovery, and successful remediation. Abstract The presence of endocrine‐disrupting compounds, such as 17‐β‐estradiol, in aquatic ecosystems poses a significant ...

Fluorinated Hypercrosslinked Polymers with Exceptional Capacity for Perfluorooctanoic Acid Removal from Water

Small, EarlyView.
Fluorinated hypercrosslinked polymers (FHCPs) are reported as highly efficient sorbents for the rapid removal of perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) from water. The materials integrate strong fluorophilic interactions, extensive porosity, and excellent chemical stability, delivering fast adsorption kinetics, high uptake capacity, and selective PFOA removal ...

Genetic benefits of female from extra-pair paternity are context dependent within the socially monogamous Tree Sparrow

Avian Research
Females actively seek extra-pair paternity (EPP) to acquire a fitness advantage for their offspring. The “context-dependence hypothesis” posits that female extra-pair mate choice has plasticity in response to environmental conditions, and therefore ...
