Surface reactivity of amphibole asbestos. A comparison between crocidolite and tremolite [PDF]
, 2017 Among asbestos minerals, fibrous riebeckite (crocidolite) and tremolite share the amphibole structure but largely differ in terms of their iron content and oxidation state. In asbestos toxicology, iron-generated free radicals are largely held as one of

Trace element geochemistry of peridotites from the Izu-Bonin-Mariana Forearc, Leg 125
, 1992 Trace element analyses (first-series transition elements, Ti, Rb, Sr, Zr, Y, Nb, and REE) were carried out on whole rocks and minerals from 10 peridotite samples from both Conical Seamount in the Mariana forearc and Torishima Forearc Seamount in the Izu ...

Brazilian Archives of Biology and Technology, 2003 In this work, the catalytic role of chrysotile support on the acceleration of alcoholic fermentation under non-aseptic conditions by Saccharomyces cerevisiae was investigated. The fermentation medium employed consisted only of diluted sugar-cane molasses.

Commentary on Notification and Recordkeeping of Occupational Mesothelioma in India
American Journal of Industrial Medicine, Volume 69, Issue 4, Page 219-225, April 2026.ABSTRACT In India, some occupational diseases are notifiable under the Mines Act, 1952, and the Factories Act, 1948. Mesothelioma, primarily attributable to asbestos exposure, has been listed specifically as one of the notifiable diseases under the Mines Act, 1952, and is notifiable under the category of occupational cancer in the Factories Act, 1948 ...

Synthesis and performance of polyurethane/silicon oxide nano-composite coatings
Science and Engineering of Composite Materials, 2019 Chrysotile asbestos has excellent physical and chemical properties, but its high biotoxicity is very damaging to human health, due to its durability, high aspect ratio, and the exist of iron.

Structure of the North‐Central Chile Subduction Zone From Local Earthquake Tomography
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract The fluid cycle in subduction zones prescribes large parts of its structure and seismogenic behavior. Background seismicity inside the downgoing slab is linked to fluid release from dehydration reactions, whereas fluid overpressure along the plate interface can alter interplate coupling, megathrust earthquakes, and the presence or absence of ...

Emerging Strategies in the Diagnosis and Treatment of Pleural Mesothelioma: An Overview
Thoracic Cancer, Volume 17, Issue 8, April 2026.This review examines pleural mesothelioma, from risk factors and pathogenesis to diagnostic approaches and histological classification. We discuss current treatment strategies including chemotherapy and FDA‐approved immunotherapy, alongside emerging therapies such as VISTA, LAG‐3 inhibitors, and dendritic cell‐based approaches for personalized ...

Discover GeoscienceSerpentine minerals, either polymorphs or polytypes (mostly chrysotile, lizardite and antigorite), are hardly distinguished in ophiolitic serpentinites and serpentinized peridotite unless sophisticated mineralogical tools are applied.

Subduction Zone Magnetism: The Influence of Metamorphism and Serpentinization in the Mantle Wedge
Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, Volume 27, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract Subduction zone magnetic anomalies have previously been used to infer their thermal structure assuming a uniformly serpentinized mantle carries a homogeneous, isotropic magnetization. However, seismic tomography, geological observations and numerical modeling provide increasing evidence for a non‐uniformly serpentinized mantle wedge that may ...

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 2, February 2026.Abstract Fluids released from subducting hydrated rocks influence volcanism, tectonics, and geochemical cycling, but the mechanisms of fluid escape in subduction zones remain poorly understood. We address this issue by investigating the Erro‐Tobbio meta‐serpentinites (ET‐MS), Italy, exhumed serpentinite rocks that preserve extensive dehydration vein ...
