The Anthropocene and the End of Nuclear Disaster: Normalizing the Fukushima Nuclear Accident
ABSTRACT This article places the concept of disaster in critical dialogue with that of the Anthropocene, which introduces new imaginaries that negatively affect the governance of crises like nuclear accidents. I argue that tropes surrounding the Anthropocene can depict certain events as apocalyptic calamities while also portraying other events as mere “

Beyond safety net value(s): Tourist hotel rooms for people experiencing homelessness
Abstract This article examines the shape of care and value through an ethnographic study of an intensive, temporary housing intervention for people experiencing homelessness in San Francisco, California, during the COVID‐19 pandemic. Building on a new anthropological theory of value, the results highlight the slipperiness between surveillance and care,

That sinkin’ feeling: Environmentally induced distress on a disappearing island
Abstract Residents of Tangier Island, Virginia, a subsiding island in the Chesapeake Bay, embody psychosocial dimensions of environmental change. Analysis of ethnographic data shows islanders’ experiences and articulations of anxiety, panic, and despair as “that sinkin’ feeling,” resulting from the stress of living with the long‐term threat of imminent

Biphasic Extraction of Selected Heavy Metals From Corn With the Aid of Kosmotropic Salts
ABSTRACT This study investigated the use of aqueous two‐phase extraction (ATPE) with kosmotropic salts for the extraction of toxic heavy metals from maize. Heavy metals, such as cadmium (Cd), chromium (Cr) and iron (Fe), are harmful to human health because they accumulate in the food chain and may cause kidney damage, cancer and nervous system problems.

Design Considerations for Polymer–Deep Eutectic Solvent Hybrid Systems for Transdermal Drug Delivery
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) act as tunable, green excipients that modulate polymer structure–property relationships to enhance drug solubility, skin permeation, stability, and controlled release. Through hydrogen‐bond interactions, DES–polymer hybrid systems enable improved transdermal performance, offering a rational, design‐driven platform for ...

NADES as Biocompatible Media for Thermally Stable RNA Molecules
The inherently low thermal stability of RNA poses operational, accessibility, and financial challenges for RNA research and RNA-based technologies. Natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES) have been shown to enhance the stability of various macromolecules,
