The Arsenal of Aromatic Degrading Bacteria: How They Sense, Chase, Adapt and Destroy Environmental Pollutants

Microbial Biotechnology, Volume 19, Issue 5, May 2026.
In the environment, bacteria sense aromatic pollutants, migrate toward them, adapt to toxicity, and deploy specialized uptake and catabolic systems. Genomic plasticity, metabolic versatility and division of labor within populations together aid in the degradation of persistent aromatics, highlights that biodegradation is driven by various eco ...

Indoor Exposure and Health Risk of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) in Public Facilities, Korea

Asian Journal of Atmospheric Environment, 2013
In the study, pollution levels of indoor polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in public facilities (vapor phase or particulate phase) were evaluated, and a health risk assessment (HRA) was carried out based on exposure scenarios.

Use of Computational Models to Investigate Human Targets of Small Ubiquitous Molecules

ChemBioChem, Volume 27, Issue 8, April 2026.
Chemoinformatics and atomistic modeling were combined to identify protein targets of environmentally and occupationally relevant chemical compounds. A public database linking chemicals, genes, phenotypes, and diseases was used for validation. The study highlights the potential and limitations of these fast, low‐cost computational approaches for early ...

Traditional smoking of Wallachian cheeses and sausages in Polish and Slovak parts of the Carpathian Mountains

Journal of Ethnic Foods
Wallachian expansion brought to the Carpathian Mountains a system of shepherd economy—farming, production of Wallachian cheeses, animals adapted to life in difficult mountain conditions—mainly sheep of the Cakiel breed group.

Comparative oesophageal cancer risk assessment of hot beverage consumption (coffee, mate and tea): the margin of exposure of PAH vs very hot temperatures

BMC Cancer, 2018
Background Consumption of very hot (> 65 °C) beverages is probably associated with increased risk of oesophageal cancer. First associations were reported for yerba mate and it was initially believed that high content of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons ...

Beyond Cocrystals: Hierarchical Functional Assemblies via Noncovalent Synthesis

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 13, 3 March 2026.
Non‐covalent interactions (NCIs) drive the formation of organic cocrystals with diverse structures and tunable optoelectronic properties. This review explores the essential factors governing these properties, highlighting how the sequential nucleation of cocrystals leads to the self‐assembly of organic hierarchical structures (OHSs).

Synthesis, Properties, Applications and Challenges of Multicomponent Doped Organic Room Temperature Phosphorescence Materials

Aggregate, Volume 7, Issue 3, March 2026.
The multi‐component doping strategy, involving self‐assembly, host‐guest systems, and crystal engineering, has gained attention for its simplicity, cost‐effectiveness, structural diversity, and adjustable room‐temperature phosphorescence (RTP). This review summarizes and evaluates the progress in creating RTP materials using this strategy, highlighting
