Interspecific Differences in the Effects on Embryos Between Freshwater and Marine Fish Exposed to Water‐Accommodated Fractions Derived From Very‐Low Sulfur Fuel Oil

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the toxic effects of water‐accommodated fractions (WAFs) of very‐low sulfur fuel oil (VLSFO) on freshwater and marine fish embryos. Embryos of Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes), Java medaka (Oryzias javanicus), and grass puffer (Takifugu alboplumbeus) were exposed to various concentrations of VLSFO‐WAF, and the effects on ...

The effect of seawater hardness on cotton fabric dyeing using reactive blue dye

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Oceans are an abundant source of water; their economic potential has not yet been fully exploited. In this context, the current study aims to apply seawater in the dyeing of cotton fabrics, evaluating the influence that total hardness has on the process results.

Potential of organogel‐based colloidal hydrogels for new cosmetic formulations

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Colloidal hydrogels are formed by combining anionic, cationic, or nonionic surfactants with two oils of cosmetic interest: sweet almond oil and phytosqualane. These systems are obtained through hot emulsification followed by cooling, which leads to the aggregation of gel‐like particles.

Alleviation of photoaging‐associated MMP upregulation, prostanoid biosynthesis, and cell cycle arrest with titanium dioxide, zinc oxide, and inorganic‐only (ZnO + TiO2) sunscreens

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
Inorganic sunscreens containing the UV filters titanium dioxide (TiO2) and/or zinc oxide (ZnO) alleviated various biomarkers of photoaging in human dermal fibroblasts, at a gene and protein level. The study provides novel insights that observe the impact of inorganic photoprotection through the molecular biology of skin.

Analysis of Potential for Human Exposure to Aerial Dispersant Application

open access: yes, 2017
The response to the Macondo oil well blow-out in the Gulf of Mexico in 2010, utilized significant quantities of dispersants. The way dispersants make oil available to natural biodegradation, their environmental effects, and overall benefits in oil spill ...

Prediction of Properties of Polymer Composite Formulations Using Ensemble Models With Feature Generation

open access: yesJournal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 143, Issue 25, July 5, 2026.
This study develops an interpretable machine‐learning framework to predict multiple properties of polymer composites based on composition and processing variables. By combining ensemble models with composition‐based feature generation and SHAP‐based interpretation, the approach reveals composition‐property relationships and supports efficient multi ...

Measurement of Interfacial Tension in Hydrocarbon/Water/Dispersant Systems at Deepwater Conditions

open access: yes, 2014
This chapter reports on an experimental study conducted to measure hydrocarbon/water/dispersant interfacial tension (IFT) at simulated conditions of pressure and temperature pertaining to the Deepwater Horizon oil spill.

In Situ Characterization of Lignin Precipitation by Synchrotron Small‐Angle X‐Ray Scattering

open access: yesChemistry–Methods, Volume 6, Issue 7, July 2026.
Small‐angle X‐ray scattering was used to observe the formation of nanoscale lignin structures in situ, when mixing industrial spent liquor and antisolvent. The results showed systematic differences in the size and packing of nanoscale structural units that form larger lignin aggregates and demonstrated the feasibility of the method.

Measurement of interfacial tension in hydrocarbon/water/dispersant systems at deepwater conditions

open access: yes, 2012
The events of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico were associated with great water depths that made it difficult to understand the behavior of the spilled oil as it came in contact with the seawater.
