Structured machine learning modeling to support conservation of deep‐sea benthic biodiversity

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Biodiversity monitoring programs need to deliver accurate, timely, and actionable predictions. To establish a predictive monitoring program for deep‐sea benthos of the Santos Basin, Brazil, we developed a two‐stage structured model that allowed comparison of biodiversity predictions obtained from environmental simulations (2M‐Sim).

Integrating traditional practices, livelihoods, and conservation with Indigenous‐led furbearer camera trapping

open access: yesConservation Biology, EarlyView.
Abstract Contemporary conservation goals have a greater chance of success when practitioners collaborate with Indigenous communities. The importance of such collaborations has spurred calls by Western and Indigenous researchers to engage in equitable coproduction of ecological research that integrates multiple ways of knowing.

Polyesterase activity and thermostability of carboxylesterases from Thermoleophilum album YS‐3

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
Three novel α/β‐hydrolases from thermophilic bacterium Thermoleophilum album display carboxylesterase and polyesterase activity. These enzymes hydrolyse PET, PLA and PCL both at high and moderate temperatures. TA21 shows superior activity, efficiently converting MHET to terephthalic acid. Structural features underlying substrate binding highlight their

Demonstration of a High‐Resolution Passive Profiler for Characterizing the Distribution of PFAS in Groundwater: A Comparison of Methods in the Field

open access: yesGroundwater Monitoring &Remediation, EarlyView.
Abstract Characterizing the concentration and mass flux spatial distributions at sites with complex hydrogeologic conditions is critical to evaluate the fate and transport of contaminants, as well as to design effective remediation programs. PFAS (per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances)‐contaminated sites are even more complex due to the large number of ...

Investigation into the delivery and evaluation of a unique Avena sativa (Oat) Lipid Extract on skin barrier using LC‒MS/MS, Raman spectroscopy, immunostaining analysis and skin efficacy

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
Abstract Objectives Oat lipids are rich in ceramides. In this investigation, we analysed the delivery of a specific Oat Lipid Extract derived from Avena sativa, comprising ‘skin identical’ ratios of fatty acids, ceramides and cholesterol/sterol. This investigation is the first reported investigation of oat lipids utilizing Raman spectroscopy for the ...

Microbial degradation of petroleum hydrocarbons

Bioresource Technology, 2017
Petroleum hydrocarbon pollutants are recalcitrant compounds and are classified as priority pollutants. Cleaning up of these pollutants from environment is a real world problem. Bioremediation has become a major method employed in restoration of petroleum hydrocarbon polluted environments that makes use of natural microbial biodegradation activity ...

Toxicity assessment of fresh and weathered petroleum hydrocarbons in contaminated soil- a review

Chemosphere, 2018
Soil contamination with total petroleum hydrocarbons (TPH) is widespread throughout the globe due to the massive production of TPH anthropogenically and its occurrence in the soil.

Phytotoxicity of petroleum hydrocarbons: Sources, impacts and remediation strategies.

Environmental Research, 2021
Extraction and exploration of petroleum hydrocarbons (PHs) to satisfy the rising world population's fossil fuel demand is playing havoc with human beings and other life forms by contaminating the ecosystem, particularly the soil.
