Exploring the possibility of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and fulleranes as the carrier of the 21 micron emission feature

Frontiers in Astronomy and Space Sciences
IntroductionThe 21 μm emission feature discovered in a small sample of carbon-rich protoplanetary nebulae has remained unidentified for over 30 years. A dozen of different molecular species (both organics and inorganics) have been proposed as the carrier

Associations of Outdoor Air Pollution With Incidence of Cancers Other Than Lung Cancer in a Large US Prospective Cohort

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
Associations between outdoor air pollution and cancers other than lung cancer remain unclear, particularly in the context of tobacco use. Here, the authors assessed possible links between ambient air pollutant exposure and incidence of 20 non‐lung cancers among adults followed over a 25‐year period in the United States.

Determination of total polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAHs) in road dust along Kuantan-Gambang road [PDF]

, 2012
Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons , (PAHs) is a type of potential environments pollutants which consists of fused aromatic rings. PAHs do not contain heteroatoms or carry any substituents. Anthracene is one of the simplest examples of PAHs.

The Impact of Genetic Polymorphisms on Genotoxicity (DNA Damage) Among Children Exposed to Environmental Mutagens: A Systematic Review

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Children, as a particularly vulnerable group, are more susceptible to these mutagens due to their developing immune systems, higher physiological vulnerability, and increased exposure through behaviors like outdoor play and hand‐to‐mouth activities. This review aims to investigate the relationship between these environmental exposures, genetic

Air Pollution Quinones Impair Intestinal Barrier Integrity and Endoplasmic Reticulum in Differentiated Caco‐2 Cells

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Particulate matter (PM) is a major global health threat, linked to millions of deaths annually. Beyond inhalation, PM components reach the gastrointestinal tract through the mucociliary escalator or contaminated food and water. Among PM's organic fraction, redox‐active quinones such as 1,2‐naphthoquinone (NQ) and 9,10‐phenanthrenequinone (PQ ...

Late Holocene environmental history of Dojran, Macedonia: Investigating the interplay of imperial dynamics and climatic change

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a high‐resolution, multi‐proxy reconstruction of environmental and land‐use change from Lake Dojran over historical times (last 2500 years), combining pollen, biomarkers, radiocarbon dating, Ottoman taxation records and other historical data.

Hybrid Quatsome‐Encapsulated Silver Nanoparticles as Stable Plasmonic Substrates for Surface‐Enhanced Raman Scattering

Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
In this work, silver nanoparticles encapsulated within quatsome membranes have shown to preserve their plasmonic properties for at least 165 days without aggregation. These hybrid nanostructures enable strong SERS enhancement of pyrene and Prodan by confining the molecules within a few nanometers from the silver surface.

Chronic, Environmentally Relevant PM2.5 Exposure Exacerbates Metabolic Dysfunction‐Associated Steatotic Liver Disease and Early‐Stage Renal Dysfunction in a Rodent Model

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT While epidemiological studies link fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exposure to metabolic dysfunction‐associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) and renal dysfunction, a translational gap exists, as most animal models utilize acute, high‐dose exposures that poorly reflect chronic, moderate‐level human scenarios.
