Commercial clays in cosmetic formulations for hair care: Characterization and application to improve the mechanical properties of hair fibre

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
The shampoo and conditioner bar formulations enhanced hair gloss, promoting softness, improved cuticle alignment, and effective protection of hair shafts against external aggressors. Findings from mechanical properties measurements indicate that the clay‐containing formulations enhance the mechanical strength of hair, contributing to stronger and more ...

Impact of Environmental Exposure on Infant Sleep : The Exposome Approach

open access: yesJournal of Sleep Research, EarlyView.
This review explores how exposure to environmental pollutants during the first 1000 days of life may affect infant sleep. Evidence suggests potential links between chemical exposures and sleep disturbances, underscoring the need for more research on early‐life vulnerability and the impact of pollutants in air, diet, and breast milk.

Atmospheric Deposition of Organic Pollutants: A Comprehensive Review of Sampling and Analytical Methodologies

open access: yesAnalytical Science Advances, Volume 7, Issue 1, June 2026.
ABSTRACT Atmospheric deposition of organic pollutants plays a crucial role in the transport and fate of contaminants in the environment, with implications for ecosystem health and human exposure. Persistent organic pollutants (POPs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and microplastics are increasingly recognized as transboundary threats due to ...

Waste Management Policies, Practices, and Public Health Outcomes in Developing Countries: A Systematic Review and Meta‐Analysis

open access: yesPublic Health Challenges, Volume 5, Issue 2, June 2026.
Unsanitary waste practices in developing countries increase disease risks by 2.1–3.1 times. This review demonstrates that integrating waste pickers, enforcing policies, and investing in circular systems can reduce health burdens by 30–50%, offering a clear path toward sustainable urban health.

The Extent of Catholyte Gelation as a Critical Safety Factor in NMC‐Based Solid‐State Battery Design

open access: yesBatteries &Supercaps, Volume 9, Issue 5, May 2026.
The work presented here describes the enhanced safety benefits offered by full immobilization of a liquid catholyte in a quasisolid‐state Li‐ion battery and the hazards that are retained by the use of a liquid catholyte in these cells. Solid‐state batteries (SSBs) are considered a safer alternative to conventional lithium‐ion batteries due to the ...
