Lithium in drinking water [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Psychiatry, 2010
In 1990 we reported that the mean suicide rates in 27 Texas counties over a 10-year period were consistently lower in those with ‘high’ natural lithium content in the drinking water (70–160 μg/l) than in counties with ‘medium’ (12–60 μg/l) or ‘low’ (0–10 μg/l) water ...

Fungal Community as a Bioindicator to Reflect Anthropogenic Activities in a River Ecosystem

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
The fungal community interacts with the ambient environment and can be used as a bioindicator to reflect anthropogenic activities in aquatic ecosystems. Several studies have investigated the impact of anthropogenic activities on the fungal community and ...

Resilience to evolving drinking water contamination risks: a human error prevention perspective [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Human error contributes to one of the major causes of the prevalence of drinking water contamination incidents. It has, however, attracted insufficient attention in the cleaner production management community. This paper analyzes human error appearing in

Hydrophilic Polymers Enable Gastrointestinal Transit Monitoring by Fluorine‐19 Magnetic Resonance Imaging

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Hydrophilic fluorinated copolymers dissolve in chyme and give a strong, single 19F signal, unlike phase‐separating perfluorocarbons. Combined 1H‐19F MRI tracks their whole‐gut transit non‐invasively and without ionizing radiation. In rats, the tracers move through the gastrointestinal tract, resist resorption, and are well tolerated, a proof‐of‐concept

Contaminants in drinking water [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Medical Bulletin, 2003
An adequate supply of safe drinking water is one of the major prerequisites for a healthy life, but waterborne disease is still a major cause of death in many parts of the world, particularly in children, and it is also a significant economic constraint in many subsistence economies.
