ABSTRACT Microplastic (MP) pollution is widely recognized as an emerging environmental threat. Yet, most studies still rely on controlled experimental conditions that poorly reflect environmental complexity, potentially underestimating risks under realistic scenarios, particularly during short‐term exposures. Here, we tested whether acute oral exposure

Rediscovering Sodium Ionophores as Selective Agents for Lithium Recognition and Extraction
Long‐classified sodium ionophores unexpectedly prefer lithium and act as efficient extractants in solid–liquid extraction (SLE). Readily prepared from catechol and haloacetamides, these hosts recover hydrated LiCl from multicomponent salt mixtures via a hydration‐assisted O···Li+ binding mode, enabling scalable lithium separation with Li/Na, Li/K, and ...

ABSTRACT Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) pose significant ecological and human health risks due to their persistence, bioaccumulation, toxicity, and global distribution. Conventional remediation methods are often inadequate for achieving complete mineralization, demonstrating the need for advanced and substantial approaches.

ABSTRACT In situ chemical oxidation (ISCO), a remediation technology for soil and groundwater contamination, utilizes oxidants that can impact the soil environment and indirectly influence soil CO2 emissions. Understanding these emissions may support more sustainable ISCO applications by enabling adjustments to treatment conditions that limit ...

Monitoring of Chlorinated Hydrocarbon Pollution of Meat and Fish in Croatia
Four hundred and sixty-six fatty tissue samples of beef, pork, poultry and fish were assayed by the gas and liquid chromatography between 1992 and 1996 for chlorinated hydrocarbons: hexachlorobenzene (HCB), α-hexachlorocyclohexane (α-HCH), γ ...

Mandible composition and properties in two selected praying mantises (Insecta, Mantodea)
Abstract Insects process their food with their cuticle‐based mouthparts. These feeding structures reflect their diversity and can, in some cases, showcase adaptations in material composition, mechanical properties, and shape to suit their specific dietary preferences.

Variously Substituted Cyclopenta[2,1‐b:3,4‐b’]difluorenyl Radicals: A Validation of Clar's Rule
Clar's empiric rule implies that the most contributing resonance formula is that with the maximum number of fully intact benzene rings. This is now further supported experimentally by the synthesis of two further, differently substituted cyclopenta[2,1‐b:3,4‐b’]difluorenyl radicals.
