Nanoplastics: Methods, Exposure and Effects on Domestic, Farm and Wild Animals
ABSTRACT Nanoplastics (NPs) are synthetic polymer particles ranging in size from 1 nm to 1 μm that have been identified as a major concern for ecosystems and organisms due to their plethora of negative effects. The aim of this review is to provide a comprehensive overview of the knowledge relating to exposure and effects of NPs in domestic (i.e., farm ...

sFlt‐1/PlGF Ratio in the Diagnosis of Preeclampsia on the MAGLUMI X3 Analyzer
We compared the analytical and clinical performance of MAGLUMI X3 (Snibe) and Elecsys (Roche) for measuring sFlt‐1, PlGF, and their ratio in women hospitalized at the Department of Gynecology and Obstetrics, University Hospital in Pilsen. In a single‐center, real‐world cohort (192 samples from 164 patients), method comparison showed good agreement ...

Measurement of Plasma Free Hemoglobin Using the Hemolysis Index of the Mindray BS‐800
The Mindray BS‐800 Hemolysis Index provides accurate and reliable measurement of plasma free hemoglobin. Offering an alternative to the Harboe reference method, this technique improves safety and turnaround time. It has strong potential to serve as a practical laboratory marker for accurately differentiating intravascular hemolysis from other causes of

Abstract BACKGROUND Chlorinated aliphatic hydrocarbons such as trichloroethylene (TCE) are persistent groundwater contaminants due to improper disposal and low biodegradability. This work presents an innovative bioelectrochemical system for the integrated reductive/oxidative removal of TCE from contaminated water, implemented in a single tubular ...

Abstract Background Fusarium graminearum, one of the causal agents of ear rot in maize and head blight of cereal grains, also infects hemp (Cannabis sativa L. containing a maximum of 0.3% tetrahydrocannabinol or THC). This fungal pathogen produces trichothecene mycotoxins when it infects maize and cereal grains, but little is known about its production

Optimizing germination and cultivation of edible halophytes using effluents from an IMTA system
Abstract BACKGROUND Halophytes offer nature‐based solutions to food insecurity and soil degradation, while their integration into integrated multi‐trophic aquaculture (IMTA) systems promotes circular economy practices. This study aimed to optimize the germination and cultivation of edible halophytic species, namely Limbarda crithmoides, Suaeda vera and

Abstract Mycotoxins remain a persistent threat to the safety and quality of cereal grains and other agricultural products, and their impact on human health continues to raise global concerns. In many situations, the practices traditionally used to control these toxins are no longer sufficiently effective. They can be costly, difficult to implement on a
