Advanced Sorbent Materials in Solid‐Phase Extraction: A Decade of Innovation and Future Perspectives
Chemistry–Methods, Volume 6, Issue 8, August 2026.This review systematically summarizes five families of advanced sorbent materials for solid‐phase extraction (SPE): nanocarbons, porous frameworks (MOFs/COFs), smart polymers, biomass‐derived sorbents, and multifunctional composites. Key molecular interactions (π–π stacking, hydrogen bonding, electrostatic attraction, host–guest recognition) are ...

Toxicity of Lindane (Gamma Hexachloro - CycloHexane) to Clarias gariepinus (Burchell 1822) [PDF]
, 2006 The acute toxicity of Lindane to African Catfish ( Clarias gariepinus ) juveniles was assessed in a static renewal bioassay for 96 h. Five graded concentrations of lindane were prepared as 0.08, 0.18, 0.40, 0.80, 1.80 mg/L and a control experiment ...

Crop Science, Volume 66, Issue 3, May/June 2026.Abstract Potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) growers who would like to biologically control major soil pests of potato face an increasing challenge. Two pest species have a major impact on yield quality: white grubs (Melolontha sp.; Eschscholtz, 1829) and wireworms (Agriotes sp.; Fabricius, 1775). Farmers who want to grow potatoes in a sustainable fashion to
