Ionic liquids: structure–toxicity relationships, predictive toxicology, and sustainable design
Abstract Ionic liquids (ILs) have often been described as green alternatives to conventional solvents because of their negligible vapor pressure and highly tunable properties. However, low volatility does not necessarily translate into environmental safety, as their biological and ecological effects are strongly influenced by molecular structure.

Micellar and Solubilization Properties of Biological Surfactant Surfactin
ABSTRACT We studied aqueous solutions of surfactin in the concentration range of 0.001–200 g/L using NMR diffusometry, tensometry and optical microscopy methods. According to tensometry data, the system forms monolayers of surfactant molecules at the water‐air phase boundary at C = 0.02 g/L.

Materials and main results of the study. ABSTRACT Surfactant–polymer (SP) flooding is a promising Enhanced Oil Recovery (EOR) technique, combining improved displacement from surfactants with enhanced sweep efficiency from polymers. This study investigates two SP systems based on the biopolymer scleroxanthan (a blend of sclerotium gum and xanthan gum ...

Topographic and Climatic Determinants of Soil Organic Carbon Across Landscapes: A Meta‐Analysis
ABSTRACT The soil is the greatest natural store of organic carbon, holding between 1500 to 1550 Pg C of organic carbon at the top 100 cm of the soil globally—roughly twice the carbon pool in the atmosphere. The spatial distribution of this stock is controlled by a complex chain of controls: topographic position regulates the hydrological redistribution,
