Alginate‐Sludge Derived Biochar‐Calcium Hydrogel for Phosphate Removal and Slow‐Release Fertilizer: A Sustainable and Multifunctional Solution

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 3, 8 January 2026.
An alginate‐based biochar hydrogel (ABC‐hydrogel), derived from sewage sludge, is developed for simultaneous phosphate removal and agricultural reuse. It captures phosphorus from water and gradually releases it as fertilizer, enhancing lettuce growth.

Contrasting histopathology and crystal deposits in kidneys of idiopathic stone formers who produce hydroxy apatite, brushite, or calcium oxalate stones [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Our previous work has shown that stone formers who form calcium phosphate (CaP) stones that contain any brushite (BRSF) have a distinctive renal histopathology and surgical anatomy when compared with idiopathic calcium oxalate stone formers (ICSF).

Strontium‐Substituted Hydroxyapatite for Fluoride Removal From Water: Adsorption Equilibrium, Kinetics, and Thermodynamic Studies

open access: yesChemistrySelect, Volume 10, Issue 45, December 1, 2025.
Strontium‐substituted hydroxyapatite was engineered for efficient fluoride remediation and antibacterial performance. Enhanced surface area and Sr‐induced active sites enabled a high adsorption capacity of 625 mg g−1 with favorable kinetics and thermodynamics. The adsorbent showed strong reusability and successfully reduced fluoride in real groundwater

Optimizing the mechanical performance of nacre‐like hydroxyapatite/polymethylmethacrylate–polyacrylic acid composites with apatite‐wollastonite

open access: yesJournal of the American Ceramic Society, Volume 108, Issue 11, November 2025.
Abstract Biomimetic materials inspired by the hierarchical structure of nacre offer promising opportunities to enhance the mechanical strength and toughness of load‐bearing bone implants. This study investigates the incorporation of apatite‐wollastonite (AW) into nacre‐like hydroxyapatite (HA)/polymethylmethacrylate–polyacrylic acid (PMMA–PAA ...

Methodological Considerations for the Use of Acid‐Based Pre‐Treatment Protocols for Carbon and Oxygen Analysis of Tooth Enamel

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 39, Issue 20, 30 October 2025.
ABSTRACT Rationale Chemical pre‐treatment is a common methodological step aimed to remove exogenous materials introduced to archaeological tooth enamel in the burial environment through diagenetic processes. However, some of these methods, involving the use of oxidising reagents such as NaClO, H2O2, as well as weak acids like CH3COOH, have been shown ...
