Posidonia oceanica Leaves as a Natural Filler for Poly(Butylene Succinate‐Co‐Adipate) Composites: Characterization and Biodegradation Assessment in Seawater

Journal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, EarlyView.
This study shows that incorporating 5–10 wt.% Posidonia oceanica, with or without micro‐talc, in PBSA preserves thermal stability, modifying crystallization behavior, and maintains good filler dispersion and interfacial adhesion. Mechanical properties are moderately stiffened.

Inflammatory Shift in Chronic Rhinosinusitis Amidst Guangzhou's Urbanization (2000–2018)

World Journal of Otorhinolaryngology - Head and Neck Surgery, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinosinusitis (CRS) exhibits temporal and geographic diversity in pathological endotypes with progressive eosinophilic infiltration, while the underlying causes remain unclear. Current pathological endotypes determination relies on mean cell count per high‐power field, requiring accuracy optimization.

Study on Impurity Particle Detection in Transformer Oil Based on Microflow Imaging Method

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The concentration of particles in transformer oil has a significant influence on its electrical performance, making oil cleanliness a critical parameter in the operation and maintenance of power transformers. However, the light obstruction (LO) method recommended by current standards has inherent limitations, including low sensitivity to ...

Weathering processes of microplastics in the sea ice and ocean environment: an 18-month-long mesocosm study

The persistence and impact of microplastics (MPs) in marine ecosystems are of increasing concern. In recent years, sea ice has been recognized as an effective temporary reservoir for MPs in polar oceans.

Degradable versus inert microplastics: Effects on soil organic carbon persistence via microbial drivers in an agroecosystem

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Microplastics (MPs) are widespread in terrestrial ecosystems, raising global concerns that they may disrupt soil organic carbon (SOC) cycling and undermine agroecosystem contributions to climate mitigation.

Elevated CO2 and Temperature Alter Grass Pollen's Ability to Modify Transcriptome and Function of the Nasal Epithelium

Allergy, EarlyView.
We exposed human nasal epithelial tissues to pollen from grasses grown under different climate treatments (temperature and CO2). Pollen weakened epithelial tight junctions and altered cytokine‐related gene expression, with similar protein‐level effects.
