Photocatalytic and Biotechnological Strategies for Remediation of Persistent Organic Pollutants: Mechanisms, Toxicity, and Antimicrobial Perspectives

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) pose significant ecological and human health risks due to their persistence, bioaccumulation, toxicity, and global distribution. Conventional remediation methods are often inadequate for achieving complete mineralization, demonstrating the need for advanced and substantial approaches.

Wildfire Ash Alters Freshwater Crustacean Behavior: Disentangling the Contributions of Suspended Macroparticles and Ash‐Induced Alkalinization

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change and anthropogenic ignitions are intensifying wildfire frequency worldwide, elevating the risk of freshwater contamination by ash. In water, dissolved ash releases ions and other toxic constituents that increase pH and alter physicochemical conditions, while suspended ash particles may impose mechanical stress, disrupt behavior ...

Comparing the Effects of Microplastics From Conventional Cigarette Butts and Heated Tobacco Device: The Role of UV‐Induced Aging

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Despite the widespread presence of cigarette butts in the environment, the potential toxicological effects posed by microplastics (MPs) derived from them remain poorly understood. In this study, we compared the effects of MPs from conventional cigarette butts (cellulose acetate) and heated tobacco devices (cellulose acetate and polylactic acid

Magnetothermal‐responsive drug release bone cement based on EGFR‐mutated lung cancer bone metastases

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
A novel magnetothermal‐responsive bone cement was developed by integrating PMMA/CPC/Osimertinib matrix with Fe3O4@SiO2@Zol nanomaterials. This dual‐drug system achieves controlled release, combining excellent mechanical properties with potent anti‐tumor activity and bone regulation for treating EGFR‐mutated LC‐BoM.

Recomposing Management Education Under Climate Crisis: Towards a Composting Heuristic for Epistemic Change

open access: yesBritish Journal of Management, EarlyView.
Abstract Management learning and education (MLE) is increasingly critiqued for its reliance on anthropocentric and profit‐maximization paradigms, which fail to adequately address the escalating ecological and climate crises. In this article, we call for an epistemic shift in MLE by introducing the metaphor of composting as a lens for collective ...

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

open access: yesANZ 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.

Direct Evidence of the Geographic Origins of Horse in the Yaoheyuan Site From Ningxia, China

open access: yesArchaeometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In this study, It is explores the geographic origin of horses by analyzing the strontium isotope ratio of horses from the Yaoheyuan site, an important site in the northwest region of China during the Western Zhou Dynasty. The results show that most of the horses at the Yaoheyuan site were domesticated locally, while a small number came from ...
