In this review, we critically summarized the application of natural polysaccharides (NPs) for the treatment of IBD. This approach combines, in a unique way (right), the basic structure–activity relationships of NPs from different origins (left) with their multipronged mode of action, which involves modulation of the gut microbiota and other ...

Green swans and blue skies: Climate change and insolvency risk for financial institutions
Abstract This lecture in honour of the late Gabriel Moss QC and Ian Fletcher QC examines the challenge of climate‐related financial risk. Prudential regulators and central banks recognize that the systemic nature of climate‐related financial risk makes it an emerging vulnerability relevant to cross‐border insolvency resolution.

From ecological principles to precision engineering of plant microbiomes for sustainable agriculture. The plant holobiont integrates diverse microbial niches (including rhizosphere, endosphere, phyllosphere, seed, and aerial‐root mucilagesphere), host genetics (namely M genes), and host metabolites. Furthermore, molecular dialogues, including rhizobial

Micro‐ and nano‐plastics (MNPs) can enter the human body through inhalation, ingestion, contact with consumer products, and iatrogenic routes. The clinical relevance of MNP exposure should be interpreted at three levels: barrier interaction, cellular stress, and system‐level disruption, with key mechanisms including oxidative stress, mitochondrial ...

ABSTRACT The agronomic benefits of oxygen‐enriched irrigation, such as improved root development, enhanced nutrient uptake, and reduced fertiliser and pesticide requirements, are well documented. However, incorporating oxygenation devices into fertigation systems increases energy demand and material use, thereby incurring additional environmental ...

Half a Century of Per‐ and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances in Northern Gannet Eggs: Impact of Regulations
ABSTRACT Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), known as “forever chemicals”, are persistent organic pollutants that have been widely used in the industry across the globe for many decades. Their chemical stability, bioaccumulation, and toxicity pose major environmental and health risks. This study examines temporal trends in the concentrations of

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 ...

Developmental and Behavioral Effects of Arsenobetaine in Zebrafish (Danio rerio)
ABSTRACT Arsenobetaine (AsB) is a prevalent organoarsenical in aquatic environments and is generally regarded as nontoxic. Despite its widespread occurrence, the developmental and neurobehavioral toxicity of AsB has not been systematically investigated.

ABSTRACT The use of microorganisms is an evolving method for the degradation of hydrocarbon contaminants. In this aim, halophilic hydrocarbon degrading bacteria were isolated from oil contaminated soil in Tunisia. A lipopeptide biosurfactant produced by Bacillus subtilis SPB1 was tested to increase diesel biodegradation along with co‐inoculation with ...
