Biochar‐Iron Oxide Composites for Adsorption of Chlorophenoxy Herbicides: Impact of Chlorine Substituents on Bath and Continuous Adsorption Performance

open access: yesAdvanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
Iron oxide‐impregnated biochar from sugarcane bagasse exhibits remarkable efficiency in removing 2,4‐dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and chlorophenoxyacetic acid, offering a sustainable option for water purification. The material retains high performance under real conditions while meeting safety criteria for irrigation use. Distinct structural features and

Children and Pesticides

open access: yesEDIS, 2013
Children act fast, but so do poisons, including pesticides. Fortunately for most parents, their children are not harmed when the parents have a momentary lapse and aren’t supervising them for a short time. But how would parents respond if they suddenly turn around, and their toddler is holding a can of household aerosol insect killer?

Synergistic Promotion of Triple‐Negative Breast Cancer Tumorigenesis and Metastasis by Oral Polystyrene Nanoplastics Exposure via Alloprevotella‐Derived Glutamate and Platelet Activation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Polystyrene nanoplastics (PS‐NPs) administered via oral exposure accelerate triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC) progression by synergistically modulating gut microbiota‐derived glutamate production and platelet activation. This study uncovers a pivotal crosstalk between microbial metabolites and platelet‐tumor interactions, offering mechanistic ...

MoMtg1 Acts as a Novel Transcriptional Repressor of MoSwi6 During Appressorium‐Mediated Penetration in the Rice Blast Fungus

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Appressoria are specialized penetration structures for many plant pathogenic fungi, demanding precise cell cycle control. This study unveils MoMtg1 as a transcriptional repressor of MoSwi6, orchestrating MoCYC1 expression during turgor‐driven cell cycle progression to enable appressorium‐mediated penetration. Moreover, a small‐molecule inhibitor ZS1619
