Comprehensive laboratory study on smoke gases during the thermal oxidative decomposition of forest and vegetation fuels

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates the composition of smoke gases in forest and vegetation samples to draw conclusions about the actual smoke gas composition during wildfires. The focus is particularly on regions with extensive pine forests, like in Eastern Germany.

The heavy metals lead and cadmium are cytotoxic to human bone osteoblasts via induction of redox stress.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
The heavy metals (HMs) lead and cadmium are persistent environmental pollutants capable of inducing ill-health in exposed individuals. One of the primary sites of accumulation and potential damage from HMs is bone, and we therefore examined the acute ...

A Critical Overview of Common Foodborne Toxicants and Methods for Their Reliable Detection

open access: yesFood Frontiers, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Food is an essential commodity for human health. However, toxicants such as mycotoxins, heavy metals, acrylamide, and pesticides can be present in food either naturally or through processing, packaging, or some anthropogenic activities. A thorough review of carefully selected studies revealed that climate change and pandemics have led to an ...

Data Poisoning against Differentially-Private Learners: Attacks and Defenses [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2019
Data poisoning attacks aim to manipulate the model produced by a learning algorithm by adversarially modifying the training set. We consider differential privacy as a defensive measure against this type of attack. We show that such learners are resistant to data poisoning attacks when the adversary is only able to poison a small number of items ...

Effectiveness of Unripe Plantain Peel on Tenderization of Beef and Okra as a Potential Substitute for Saltpeter

open access: yesFood Safety and Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This research seeks to examine the effect of unripe plantain peel ash and its filtrate on the tenderness of beef and okra as a potential substitute for saltpeter. Using atomic absorption spectrophotometry, important elemental particles were estimated while the texture profile of treated okra and beef was assessed using the TA‐XT Plus Micro ...

Model-Targeted Poisoning Attacks with Provable Convergence [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2020
In a poisoning attack, an adversary with control over a small fraction of the training data attempts to select that data in a way that induces a corrupted model that misbehaves in favor of the adversary. We consider poisoning attacks against convex machine learning models and propose an efficient poisoning attack designed to induce a specified model ...
