Redox‐Associated Renal and Male Reproductive Alterations Following Dexamethasone Exposure in Male Rats: Histopathological and Spermatological Evaluations

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dexamethasone (DEX) is widely used in clinical practice, although it may also cause oxidative stress–related damage in different tissues, including the kidney and male reproductive system. This study investigated DEX‐induced renal and reproductive injury in rats and evaluated the modulatory effect of reduced glutathione on DEX‐associated redox

Biosurfactant‐assisted recovery and remediation of hydrocarbons from oily sludge using a mobile aerated washing system

Journal of Chemical Technology &Biotechnology, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND The oil industry generates oily sludge, the accumulation of which poses a serious environmental problem. Conventional methods require high costs, specialized equipment, and qualified personnel. This waste can be treated using biosurfactants.

‘The most advanced outpost of cultivation’: palynological evidence for cereal agriculture and population resilience in a marginal upland environment

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Upland farming in Europe is frequently assumed to have been limited and precarious, despite relict spade‐dug ridges providing firm evidence of past crop growing. Direct evidence for crop types in post‑Medieval to Modern (~since 1500 CE) uplands is rare; yet, in Ireland, relict spade‐dug ridges that date to this period are commonly interpreted ...

Micellar and Solubilization Properties of Biological Surfactant Surfactin

Journal of Surfactants and Detergents, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We studied aqueous solutions of surfactin in the concentration range of 0.001–200 g/L using NMR diffusometry, tensometry and optical microscopy methods. According to tensometry data, the system forms monolayers of surfactant molecules at the water‐air phase boundary at C = 0.02 g/L.

Effect of sonication on European and Peruvian lupin flours: impact on the technological quality of gluten‐free breads and as a partial substitute for wheat

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND A widely cultivated pulse, lupin, has garnered interest for its beneficial nutritional properties, especially for baking applications. The harmful alkaloid content and poor functional properties of lupin limit its wider use. Sonication is an ecofriendly technology used to modify molecular structures.

Cutting through the noise: What can habitat selection modeling teach us about caribou‐fire space use dynamics?

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We synthesize the current knowledge regarding caribou habitat selection in relation to wildfires. Caribou responses to recent burns were generally weak and highly variable across subspecies or ecotypes, suggesting that post‐fire habitat selection is likely context‐dependent and the need for regionally adapted habitat management strategies.

Spatial Patterns, Driving Forces, and Potential Grain Losses of Non‐Grain Production of Farmland in Central Yunnan Urban Agglomeration, China

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The expansion of farmland non‐grain production (NGP) poses a potential threat to food security and agricultural land protection, particularly in mountainous urban agglomerations. However, the utilization patterns, driving mechanisms, and associated production‐loss effects of farmland NGP in this specific regional context remain insufficiently ...

From Ashes to Action: Economic Growth, Ecological Footprint, and Forest Fire Resilience in Advanced and Emerging Economies

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Forest fires have escalated alarmingly, now consuming more than double the tree cover compared to two decades ago, signaling a growing and urgent environmental crisis. This study addresses the ever increasing global concern of forest fires, focusing on sustainable economic recovery while minimizing the ecological footprint amid mounting ...

Nonlocal Leaky Mode Metasurfaces for Mode‐, Angle‐, and Polarization‐Multiplexed Holography With Thermal Light

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.
Nonlocal leaky mode metasurfaces reconstruct multiplexed holograms directly from unfiltered thermal light. High‐Q leaky guided modes compress broadband halogen emission into narrowband channels, enhancing temporal coherence a hundredfold, while a single nanohole array encodes independent images addressed by mode, angle, and polarization, establishing ...
