Relationship between the molecular composition, visible light absorption, and health-related properties of smoldering woodsmoke aerosols [PDF]
Organic aerosols generated from the smoldering combustion of wood critically impact air quality and health for billions of people worldwide; yet, the links between the chemical components and the optical or biological effects of woodsmoke aerosol (WSA ...

Secondary organic aerosol formation from photooxidation of naphthalene and alkylnaphthalenes: implications for oxidation of intermediate volatility organic compounds (IVOCs) [PDF]
Current atmospheric models do not include secondary organic aerosol (SOA) production from gas-phase reactions of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs).

One-Dimensional Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons Incorporating Multiple Dithiafulvene Units-Novel Multi-Redox and Electrochromic Systems. [PDF]
Planar polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) incorporating three or four dithiafulvene (DTF) units were synthesized via Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons reactions to create large π‐conjugated redox‐active frameworks. These molecules display strong intermolecular associations and distinct odd–even redox behavior, enabling formation of mixed‐valence and radical‐

Microbial Community Dynamics in Marine Water: Influence of Hydrocarbon Type and Exposure Time
ABSTRACT Marine environments are frequently impacted by petroleum‐derived hydrocarbons, which pose ecological risks because of their toxic, mutagenic, and carcinogenic potential. Microorganisms play a crucial role in hydrocarbon degradation, and understanding the influence of time and hydrocarbon type on microbial dynamics helps improve bioremediation ...

Physics of Superconductors Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons ( PAH )
In this work, we will study metallic clusters equivalent to the organic ones intercalated with metals, of solid benzene type, Ba anthracene and K3.45picene; and we will try to calculate its superconducting Tc, for each of these compounds, from electronic correlations at room temperature.

ABSTRACT Excess lung cancer risk in Xuanwei and Fuyuan, China, has been attributed to household air pollution from use of a locally sourced smoky (bituminous) coal. However, the carcinogenic mechanisms remain unclear. Given the important role of inflammation in lung cancer development, this study compared the proinflammatory potentials of the ...

ABSTRACT Freshwater turtles are valuable sentinels of aquatic systems due to their long lifespans and resilience in environments impacted by contaminants. The Permian Basin, dominated by the oil and gas sector, spans western Texas and southeastern New Mexico, USA, including the Pecos River and its tributaries, the Delaware and Black Rivers.
