Occurrence of disinfection by-products in the Krakow water supply system with respect to compliance EU standards

Desalination and Water Treatment
The research explored the presence of disinfection by-products (DBPs) in drinking water supplied to the Krakow agglomeration and compared it with the guidelines in Directive (EU) 2020/2184. The paper looked particularly into DBPs: haloacetic acids (HAA),

Wireless, Adaptable and Fully Implantable Battery‐powered Devices for Optical Stimulation of the Spinal Cord in Small Rodents

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Current technologies for spinal cord optogenetic stimulation rely on external power sources and face reliability constraints in freely behaving animals. Here, a fully implantable, battery‐powered optoelectronic device is introduced, enabling operation in any selected environment with wireless recharging for months‐long stimulation.

Development of a Human 3D Immune‐Competent Neurovascular Model Enabling Time‐Resolved Monitoring of Neuroinflammatory Dynamics and Neuroimmune Interactions

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Neuroinflammation alters blood–brain barrier integrity and contributes to neurological disorders, yet existing models lack human immune complexity. This study presents a 3D, immune‐responsive platform that reconstructs key neurovascular components and enables real‐time monitoring.

WTAP‐Mediated m6A Modification Targets the LRP1‐Lipid Metabolism Axis to Regulate Joint Cartilage Regeneration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
WTAP drives cartilage regeneration by activating an LRP1‐dependent lipid metabolic program in macrophages, enhancing IL‐10 and TGF‐β secretion to promote chondrogenic differentiation. Leveraging this mechanism, virtual screening identifies LRP1‐targeting compounds that effectively stimulate cartilage repair, highlighting a druggable epigenetic ...

Minimization of algogenic organic matter from cyanobacteria-laden water by electrochemical oxidation: molecular degradation signature of disinfection by-products precursors by electro-oxidation and electro-Fenton

Sustainable Environment Research
Algogenic organic matter (AOM) generated from cyanobacteria-impacted reservoirs poses a significant risk to drinking water. This study aimed to investigate the molecular degradation signature of Microcystis aeruginosa (MA)-derived AOM by electrochemical ...

Fertility and the sperm membrane biomarker (SP22) are compromised in an additive fashion by priority disinfection by-products of drinking water: a validation of enzyme linked immunosorbant assay (ELISA) for SP22.

, 2004
Dibromoacetic acid (DBA) and bromochloroacetic acid (BCA) are prevalent disinfection by-products of drinking water known to produce defects in spermatogenesis and fertility in adult rats. Previous work in our laboratory demonstrated that BCA compromises

A Novel Approach Based on Acceptor–Donor–Acceptor Type Molecules Enhances the Therapeutic Efficacy and Safety of Photothermal Therapy for Osteosarcoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Jin et al. developed IEICO‐F nanoparticles with enhanced photothermal conversion efficiency via optimized push‐pull effect. Under 808 nm laser, these nanoparticles effectively generated heat to kill osteosarcoma cells and exhibited significant tumor suppression in vivo. Therefore, this novel A‐D‐A type molecule‐based photothermal therapy strategy holds
