The Non‐Professional Virtues of the Hospice Volunteer

open access: yesJournal of Applied Philosophy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Volunteers have long played a significant role in hospice care. Much of the care volunteers provide consists of weekly hour‐long in‐home visits. Home‐visiting hospice volunteers are not professionals, nor are they strangers or intimates. Hospice volunteers will not typically face moral dilemmas, nor be called upon to make dramatic decisions ...

Effect of Zinc Oxide Nanoparticles From Infant Formula Milk Powder on Colon Cells In Vitro

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Zinc is an essential trace element that participates in numerous metabolic processes; however, excessive exposure may interfere with the absorption of other metals, such as copper. In recent years, nanotechnology has experienced rapid growth, and zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) have garnered significant attention due to their versatile ...

Human Health Risk Assessment From Exposure to Toxic Metals in Soils and Leafy Vegetables in Smallholder Farms of Northeastern Brazil

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study assessed human health risks associated with exposure to potentially toxic metals (PTMs) in soils and leafy vegetables cultivated in smallholder agricultural systems in Northeastern Brazil. Soil and vegetable samples were collected from 18 agricultural areas and analyzed for cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr), copper (Cu), iron (Fe), nickel

Parental Exposure to Nanoplastics and Graphene Oxide Induces Transgenerational Toxicity in Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental pollution by emerging contaminants such as nanoplastics (NPs) and graphene oxide (GO) represents a growing threat to global health and ecosystems. This study investigated the effects of parental exposure, both isolated and combined, to 100 μg/L NPs (polystyrene, spherical, 100 nm) and 100 mg/L GO, using Caenorhabditis elegans as ...

Field Studies on the Influence of High‐Voltage Direct Transmission Underground Cables on Soils Along the SuedLink Route in Southwest Germany

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
During regular operation of the SuedLink at a load ≤75 %, the average increase in temperature in the plowing horizon is expected to be less than 1.6°C in the soils along the route in Southwest Germany. ABSTRACT Background The SuedLink was planned as a high‐voltage direct‐current underground cable route. The construction itself is a massive intervention

Biomass Carbon in Harvest Residues of Winter Oilseed Rape Across Fertilizer N Rates: Implications for Carbon Input Estimations in Soil Carbon Models

open access: yesJournal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background: Reliable estimation of carbon (C) inputs from above‐ and belowground residues at different yield levels is crucial, as these inputs drive soil organic carbon (SOC) models for C accounting. Aims: This study quantifies C inputs from different components of winter oilseed rape (WOSR) and compares them with estimates from various ...
