Heavy metal poisoning

open access: yes, 1972
A number of metals have been known for several decades to possess biological activity. Since mammals must directly or indirectly obtain their supply of minerals from plants, it has been postulated that any element not present in plants is probably not ...

Recent Strategies Toward Durable and Ion‐Tolerant Transition Metal‐Based Electrocatalysts in Seawater Electrolysis

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
Recent strategies address these challenges through ion‐specific regulation, encompassing chloride‐tolerant and chloride‐regulating anodes together with cathode designs that suppress OH− accumulation and Mg2+/Ca2+ coupling. This ion‐management‐oriented framework provides general guidelines for achieving stable, selective, and scalable seawater ...

Occurrence of Paratanaisia spp. Freitas, 1951 in a domiciled cockatiel (Nymphicus hollandicus, Psittaciformes: Cacatuidae)

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2018
Digenetic eucotylids of the Paratanaisia genus are widely reported parasites of the avian renal system. The infection, commonly reported in free-living and zoo-housed birds, is described for the first time in a domiciled bird, a cockatiel kept as pet ...

Selective Oxidation Strategies for Cost‐Efficient Green Hydrogen Production via Hybrid Water Electrolysis

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
Hybrid water electrolysis has emerged as a promising alternative to conventional electrolysis for sustainable hydrogen production. The economic potential of replacing water oxidation with organic substrates is assessed. For each substrate, representative electrocatalysts and mechanistic insights are reviewed to identify design principles for optimized ...

Phycology and heavy-metal pollution

open access: yes, 1981
1. All heavy metals, including those that are essential micronutrients (e.g. copper, zinc, etc.), are toxic to algae at high concentrations. 2. One characteristic feature of heavy-metal toxicity is the poisoning and inactivation of enzyme systems.

Beyond Activity: The Unified Framework of the Sabatier Principle to Guide Rational Design of Durable and Active Electrocatalysts

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
In this review, a unified framework of the Sabatier principle is applied to a diverse range of catalytic and electrocatalytic systems for advanced clean energy technologies, with a particular focus on the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). This approach will guide the design and development of highly active and stable catalysts for fuel cells ...
