Defecation in preparation for ecdysis drives microplastic clearance in cricket nymphs

open access: yesPhysiological Entomology, EarlyView.
In preparation for ecdysis, cricket nymphs cease feeding and gradually clear their gut contents via frass production, which removes most ingested MPs from their digestive tract. Following exoskeletal moulting, the foregut lining, including any remaining MPs, is shed and excreted alongside frass approximately 6 h later.

Effects of solar‐simulated (UVB plus UVA) radiation on the skin microbiome: An exploratory study

open access: yesPhotochemistry and Photobiology, EarlyView.
This exploratory in vivo study investigated the effects of solar‐simulated ultraviolet radiation (UVB plus UVA) on the human skin microbiome. Healthy male volunteers were exposed to suberythemal and erythemal UV doses, and skin microbiota were analyzed at multiple time points using flow cytometry‐based profiling and the open‐access bioinformatic ...

Physical and chemical characterization of recycled glass sand for environmental restoration

open access: yesRestoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction We rely on coastal resources for food, water, and energy. However, over 75% of U.S. coastlines are eroding. Concurrently, the U.S. recycles less glass than other developed countries, landfilling hundreds of millions of tons every year.
