Dry Cleaning and Post‐Cleaning Strategies in Food Processing Facilities: A Scoping Review
ABSTRACT Effective dry cleaning and post‐cleaning treatments are essential for maintaining food safety in dry‐food processing environments where water use must be minimized. This scoping review mapped and synthesized empirical research on minimal‐water cleaning methods applied to industrial surfaces, focusing on their efficacy against microbial and ...

Knee arthroplasty failure is associated with significant systemic multimetal exposure
Abstract Purpose This study investigated whether patients scheduled for revision total knee arthroplasty (TKA) are systemically exposed to arthroplasty metals, and whether systemic metal levels in these patients differ depending on the implants' levels of constraint.

Improved atmospheric sampling of hexavalent chromium [PDF]
Hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)) and trivalent chromium (Cr(III)) are the primary chromium oxidation states found in ambient atmospheric particulate matter. While Cr(III) is relatively nontoxic, Cr(VI) is toxic and exposure to Cr(VI) may lead to cancer, nasal damage, asthma, bronchitis, and pneumonitis.

Metabolic Regulation of Immune Responses: Molecular Mechanisms, Diseases, and Therapeutic Targets
FBP1 loss drives immune evasion and therapy resistance by enhancing glycolysis, STAT3 activation, and PD‐L1 expression, leading to T cell exhaustion and NK cell inhibition. FBP1 restoration, via LNP‐mRNA or epigenetic modulation, reverses these immunosuppressive effects, reactivates cytotoxic T cells, promotes M1 macrophage polarization, and enhances ...

ABSTRACT Semiconductor photocatalysis represents a pivotal frontier in the quest for sustainable energy and environmental remediation. Among the diverse catalytic materials, Bismuth Oxychloride (BiOCl) has emerged as a particularly promising candidate due to its unique layered structure, featuring [Bi2O2]2+ layers intertwined with halogen ions, which ...

Chemical Characterization of Toxic Elements in Plastic Utensils: Key Insights and Health Impacts
Toxic elements in plastic utensils are assessed using portable X‐ray fluorescence and specific migration tests with water and 3% acetic acid as food simulants. Cadmium, lead, arsenic, and mercury are detected in the utensils, and migration results show exceedances of specific migration limits, particularly for lead, mercury, and cadmium. These findings

The microwave‐assisted reduction of Cr(VI) over oxygen‐vacancy‐rich MnFe2O4@ZnFe2O4 (MZFO‐VO) heterojunction microspheres is highly efficient. Oxygen vacancies lower the work function and facilitate bulk‐to‐surface electron migration, while Fe–O anchoring sites selectively adsorb and reduce dichromate ions.

Biosorption of hexavalent chromium by Pleurotus ostreatus [PDF]
The existing techniques for the removal of heavy metals are expensive and frequently inefficient. Thus the application of biosorbents has arisen as an alternative, this being emergent technology that must be studied and explored, with the aim of promoting better environmental and human life quality.

Airborne Hexavalent Chromium in Southwestern Ontario [PDF]
This study reports the first field measurements of airborne hexavalent chromium (Cr(vi)) in southwestern Ontario. Hexavalent chromium was identified as an inhalation carcinogen and an air toxic of concern during the 1991-93 Windsor Air Quality Study. The results of that study indicated that approximately 20% of the routinely monitored ambient airborne ...
