Residues of organochlorine pesticides in irrigated sierozem-meadow soils around buried chemicals stock

open access: yesSoil and Water Research, 2018
The concentration and distribution of organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) were studied in sierozem-meadow soils around a buried obsolete chemicals stock in Mirzaabad district of Syrdarya region of Uzbekistan. 23 soil samples were collected from the topsoil (

Organic and Inorganic Pollutants, Oxidative Stress Biomarkers, and Electrophoretic Protein Profiles in an Endangered Thresher Shark (Alopias vulpinus) From Southeastern Brazil: A Case Study

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A comprehensive screening of different environmental contaminants (total metals, thermostable metal fractions associated with detoxification, and persistent organic pollutants) was conducted in an endangered common thresher shark (Alopias vulpinus ) individual incidentally captured in southeastern Brazil.

Sufficient optimality criteria and duality for multiobjective variational control problems with G-type I objective and constraint functions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
In the paper, we introduce the concepts of G-type I and generalized G-type I functions for a new class of nonconvex multiobjective variational control problems.

Oxidative Damage, Energy Imbalance, and Behavioral Disruptions in Girardia tigrina Exposed to Treated Sewage Effluents

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study assessed the ecotoxicological effects of treated sewage on the freshwater planarian Girardia tigrina, integrating biochemical, energetic, and behavioral biomarkers. Planarians were exposed for 48 h to different concentrations of treated sewage (12.5%, 25%, 50%, and 100%) and compared to controls using commercial water and water from

Effect of Deflagration-to-Detonation Transition on Pulse Detonation Engine Impulse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
A detonation tube was built to study the deflagration-to-detonation transition (DDT) process and the impulse generated when combustion products exhaust into the atmosphere.

Enantioselective synthesis of (+)-petromyroxol, enabled by rhodium-catalyzed denitrogenation and rearrangement of a 1-sulfonyl-1,2,3-triazole [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Petromyroxol is a non-racemic mixture of enantiomeric oxylipids isolated from water conditioned with larval sea lamprey. The (+)-antipode exhibits interesting biological properties but only 1 mg was isolated from >100000 L of water.

Nests in trees are as good as or better than cliffs for two formerly persecuted, primarily cliff nesting eagles in Spain: a cautionary tale in defining the habitat of range‐restricted or threatened species

open access: yesWildlife Biology, EarlyView.
In the late‐20th century, golden and Bonelli's eagles suffered population declines on the Iberian Peninsula, partly due to human persecution. Habitat assessments – especially for Bonelli's eagles – always found or assumed strong associations with cliffs that provided nesting sites.

Novel approaches for drug development against chronic primary pain: A systematic review

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic primary pain (CPP) persisting for more than 3 months, associated with significant emotional distress without any known underlying cause, is an unmet medical need. Traditional or adjuvant analgesics do not provide satisfactory pain relief for a great proportion of these patients.

Edge‐preserving noise for diffusion models

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Classical diffusion models typically rely on isotropic Gaussian noise, treating all regions uniformly and overlooking structural information important for high‐quality generation. We introduce an edge‐preserving diffusion process that generalizes isotropic models via a hybrid noise scheme with an edge‐aware scheduler that smoothly transitions ...
