Bioavailability as a key property in terrestrial ecotoxicity assessment and evaluation

open access: yes, 2022
It was the primary scope of the worhshop to give a critical overview of various scientific aspects to determine "bioavailability" for terrestrial ecotoxicity assessment and evaluation. However, the acceptability and reliability of methods for policy use -

Performance and Environmental Impact of Flexible Temperature Sensors on Cellulose‐Based Substrate

open access: yesAdvanced Electronic Materials, EarlyView.
Toward low‐environmental‐impact approach to thin‐film sensors fabrication using natural ingredient‐based triacetyl cellulose (TAC) substrate. Temperature sensors are fabricated and characterized based on thermal and mechanical performance. Substrate recovery is demonstrated by facile dissolution of a Mo‐based sensor in deionized water.

Effect of vacuum UV and UV-C treatment on degradation and ecotoxicity of tire wear microrubber leachates

open access: yesWater Science and Technology
Tire wear microrubber particles (TWMP) are a major source of environmental contamination. Degradation of TWMP is slow and leachates contain toxic constituents including heavy metals, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and organic additives.

An overview of the (eco)toxicological effects of flame retardants emerging in water and sediment [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Water and Land Development
Flame retardants (FRs) that have an adverse effect on human and the environment have been subject to regulation since 1972. However, FRs emerging as a replacement, are not proving to be fully environmentally safe. Water and sediment contamination by FRs,

Cu-nanoparticles ecotoxicity – Explored and explained? [PDF]

open access: yesChemosphere, 2015
The nano-form of copper (Cu-NPs) is already extensively used. In this paper the toxic effect of Cu in the worm Enchytraeus crypticus (Oligochaeta: Enchytraeidae) was assessed following exposure to (1) Cu-salt: freshly spiked soil with copper-nitrate, (2) Cu-NPs: freshly spiked soil with Cu nanoparticles (80nm), and (3) Cu-field: historically Cu ...

Nickel‐Free Perovskite Solar Cells Enabled by Self‐Assembled Monolayers: A Pathway to Efficient and Recyclable Devices

open access: yesAdvanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Replacing toxic NiOx with phenyl‐substituted phosphonic‐acid carbazole monolayers (Ph‐5PACz) yields inverted perovskite solar cells that are efficient and recyclable. The nickel‐free interface reaches 25.3% efficiency and enables closed‐loop ITO recovery with near‐98% performance retention, while life‐cycle and techno‐economic analyses confirm lower ...

Rapid assessment of fern spore quality using microscale electrical conductivity testing

open access: yesApplications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Premise Ex situ spore banks are essential for fern conservation and research, yet traditional germination tests for assessing spore quality are time consuming and labor intensive. We explored whether electrical conductivity (EC), a rapid proxy for seed vigor, could offer an efficient alternative for evaluating fern spore quality. Methods Using
