Reducing lead uptake by plants as a way to lead-free food

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2023
In this research, an attempt was made to produce safe food from lead-contaminated soil. It was assumed that an increased amount of calcium (Ca) in plants would prevent them from lead (Pb) uptake. A new-generation agricultural product − an activator of Ca

Fabrication and Characterization of a Lead-Free Cesium Bismuth Iodide Perovskite through Antisolvent-Assisted Crystallization

Nanomaterials
Cesium bismuth iodide perovskite material offers good stability toward ambient conditions and has potential optoelectronic characteristics. However, wide bandgap, absorber surface roughness, and poor surface coverage with pinholes are among the key ...

Stereotactic Body Radiation Therapy for Pediatric, Adolescent, and Young Adult Patients With Osteosarcoma: Local Control Outcomes With Dosimetric Analysis

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background/Objectives Osteosarcoma is a radioresistant tumor that may benefit from stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) for locoregional control in metastatic/recurrent disease. We report institutional practice patterns, outcomes, toxicity, and failures in osteosarcoma patients treated with SBRT.

Physical Properties of the K0.5Na0.5NbO3 Compound Doped With Li, La, and Ti in Concentration Lower Than 1.3 mol%

International Journal of Ceramic Engineering & Science
Physical properties of the K0.5Na0.5NbO3 (KNN) system doped with less than 1.3 mol% of Li+, La3+, and Ti4+ ions were studied. These samples were prepared by a mixture of oxides and carbonates using high‐energy milling and solid‐state reactions.

Lifestyle Behaviors and Cardiotoxic Treatment Risks in Adult Childhood Cancer Survivors

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Higher doses of anthracyclines and heart‐relevant radiotherapy increase cardiovascular disease (CVD) risk. This study assessed CVD and CVD risk factors among adult childhood cancer survivors (CCSs) across cardiotoxic treatment risk groups and examined associations between lifestyle behaviors and treatment risks.
