Adsorption of Mercury in Aqueous Solutions by Functionalized Cellulose Extracted from Soybean Hulls
Reuse of agricultural waste as a source of adsorbent cellulose‐based materials is a low‐cost and sustainable approach to remove potentially toxic elements (PTEs) from aqueous solutions. This approach is successfully applied in the removal of mercury from aquaculture water, an important source of food where the absence of PTEs is a fundamental requisite

Abstract The immune system has long been recognized as a key driver in the progression of heart failure (HF). However, clinical trials targeting immune effectors have consistently failed to improve patient outcome across different HF aetiologies. The activation of the immune system in HF is complex, involving a broad network of pro‐inflammatory and ...

Abstract Heparan sulphates (HSs), a specific class of glycosaminoglycans (GAGs), are important participants of cellular signalling. Analytical characterization of GAGs requires a complex sample preparation workflow. Although a detailed stability and recovery study is available for the chondroitin sulphate GAG class, the literature concerning HS is ...
