Anisotropy in Dry‐Type Valve‐Side Bushings of Converter Transformer: Phenomena and Effects

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The safe and stable working of dry‐type valve‐side bushings, important components of converter transformers, is essential. In recent years, poor design has led to several core breakdown, flashover and cracking failures. The bushing cores, composed of crepe paper and aluminium foil, exhibit significant anisotropic physical properties due to its

Flow Chemistry Meets Green Solvents: Telescoped Synthesis of Triazolyl Phosphoramidates and Phosphinamides in γ‐Valerolactone

ChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 9, 14 May 2026.
A telescoped three‐step continuous flow process enables the synthesis of organophosphorus 1,2,3‐triazoles in the biomass‐derived solvent γ‐valerolactone (GVL). The sequence integrates N‐phosphorylation, azidation, and Cu(I)‐catalyzed azide–alkyne cycloaddition (CuAAC), followed by in‐line copper removal, giving diverse triazoles in good to high overall

Contaminants of emerging concern in agricultural soils: Current understanding, overlooked issues, and future priorities

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 8, Issue 3, Page 792-810, May 2026.
Contaminants of emerging concern (CECs) in agriculture represent a growing global challenge for food safety and public health. In this review, we synthesized evidence on how substances such as pharmaceuticals, microplastics, and per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) enter soils, accumulate in crops, and affect ecological and human health. We found

Enteric Nervous System Damage by Food Contaminants: A Pathway to Neurodegeneration?

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 3, May 2026.
ABSTRACT The enteric nervous system (ENS), a key component of the gut–brain axis, has emerged as a critical player in the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD). It is the first neural system exposed to food contaminants (FCs)—a diverse group of ubiquitous toxic compounds fortuitously present in food derived from production, processing, storage, or ...
