Leachate as a Fertilizer

International Journal of Scientific Research in Science, Engineering and Technology
No one is unaware of the massive volumes of waste produced on a daily basis by human society. All waste produced from household and industrial sources decompose in open spaces throughout the urban waste process. After that, leachate including high quantities of common cat ions, dioxins, heavy metals (such Pb, Ni, Cu, Hg, and organic compounds), Zn, S ...

Micro‐Nanoplastics Significantly Increase Adverse Events and Economic Burden Associated With Carotid Endarterectomy: A Health Economic Modelling Evaluation

ANZ Journal of Surgery, EarlyView.
Current research reports that micro‐nanoplastics may increase the burden of cardiovascular disease with significant human and economic consequences. The detection of plastic particles in biological matrices is challenging and rigorous research is required to investigate the clinical and broader public health implications of microplastics.

Characterization and spatiotemporal variations of fluorescent dissolved organic matter in leachate from old landfill-derived incineration residues and incombustible waste.

PLoS ONE
Dissolved organic matter (DOM) influences the bioavailability and behavior of trace metals and other pollutants in landfill leachate. This research characterized fluorescent dissolved organic matter (FDOM) in leachate from an old landfill in Japan during

Fecal Steroids as Tracers of Human Population and Waste Management Practices at the Ancient Maya City of Ucanal, Guatemala

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Geochemical data compiled from dried sediments from three water reservoirs at the ancient Maya city of Ucanal, Petén, Guatemala, reveal low to undetectable fecal biomarker concentrations. These low concentrations may be the result of the aerobic decay of sterols combined with well‐managed waste disposal practices.

Diversity of the Microbiomes in the Larval and Adult Stages of the European Cherry Fruit Fly (Rhagoletis cerasi) and Identification of Potential Biocontrol Candidate Taxa

Entomologia Experimentalis et Applicata, EarlyView.
First comprehensive characterization of the R. cerasi microbiome is reported. Stage‐specific variations in microbial composition are documented. Multiple bacterial entomopathogen taxa are identified as potential biocontrol candidates for R. cerasi.

In Situ Colloidal Activated Carbon for PFAS Remediation in Groundwater: Principles, Performance Expectations, and Lessons from the First Decade

Groundwater Monitoring &Remediation, EarlyView.
Abstract Injectable colloidal activated carbon (CAC) has been commercially used to remediate per and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in groundwater since 2016. The basis of the technology is enhanced PFAS retention within the aquifer from engineered increases in aquifer‐matrix sorptivity (“PFAS enhanced retention”), with re‐equilibration from the ...

Characterization, antifungal potential, cytocompatibility, and regenerative potential of mucoadhesive gel containing antifungal‐β‐cyclodextrin inclusion complexes

Journal of Prosthodontics, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aimed to characterize a mucoadhesive gel containing nystatin (NYS) or chlorhexidine (CHX), complexed or not with β‐cyclodextrin (βCD), and evaluate its rheological and mucoadhesive properties, antifungal efficacy, cytocompatibility, and collagen synthesis potential.

Dinoflagellate responses to nutrients and mangrove leaf organic matter in the bioluminescent Mangrove Lagoon, St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands

Journal of Phycology, EarlyView.
Abstract Bioluminescent bays (biobays) are uncommon coastal ecosystems featuring dense populations of dinoflagellates, often found in mangrove‐ringed lagoons with long water retention times and high organic matter (OM) levels. Although mangroves are associated with high dinoflagellate abundance, it remains uncertain how inorganic nutrients compare with

Advantages of horizontal centrifugation of platelet‐rich fibrin in regenerative medicine and dentistry

Periodontology 2000, EarlyView.
Abstract The aim of this comprehensive review was to evaluate comparative studies on horizontal and fixed‐angle centrifugation methods for preparing platelet‐rich fibrin (PRF). Furthermore, additional studies utilizing horizontal PRF (H‐PRF) were systematically investigated.

Physical and chemical characterization of recycled glass sand for environmental restoration

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction We rely on coastal resources for food, water, and energy. However, over 75% of U.S. coastlines are eroding. Concurrently, the U.S. recycles less glass than other developed countries, landfilling hundreds of millions of tons every year.
