Microplastic mineralization rate in Fenton reactions depends on polymer type

Journal of Environmental Quality, Volume 55, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
Abstract Despite microplastics (MPs) being highly inert pollutants, Fenton‐type reactions—using hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and iron(II) ions (Fe2+)—may effectively initiate chain cleavage and induce mineralization. However, mineralization rates and mechanisms for different MP types at varying Fenton reagent concentrations remain unclear.

Immunity to Rhodococcus equi

Veterinary Microbiology, 1997
Rhodococcal pneumonia is an important, life threatening disease of foals and immunosuppressed humans. Increased knowledge of the mechanisms of protective immunity are required in order to develop an effective immunoprophylaxis strategy for horses and immunotherapeutic regiments for people.

Real‐time fluorometric isothermal assays for detection of Streptococcus equi subspecies equi and Streptococcus equi subspecies zooepidemicus in horses: Validation, comparison and evaluation of their clinical application

Australian Veterinary Journal, Volume 104, Issue 3, Page 158-166, March 2026.
Infectious diseases significantly impact equine health and welfare, causing illness and death, and loss of productivity globally. One such disease is ‘strangles’, a highly contagious upper respiratory condition in horses caused by Streptococcus equi subspecies equi (SEE).

Microbial degradation of dimethylsulphide and related C1-sulphur compounds: organisms and pathways controlling fluxes of sulphur in the biosphere [PDF]

, 2010
Dimethylsulphide (DMS) plays a major role in the global sulphur cycle. It has important implications for atmospheric chemistry, climate regulation, and sulphur transport from the marine to the atmospheric and terrestrial environments.

Rhodococcus cavernicola sp. nov., isolated from a cave, and Rhodococcus degradans is a later heterosynonym of Rhodococcus qingshengii

International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, 2020
A Gram-reaction-positive, strictly aerobic, catalase-positive, oxidase-negative, non-motile actinobacterium, designated C1-24T, was isolated from a soil sample collected inside a natural cave. The organism exhibited a rod–coccus developmental cycle during its growth phase.

A retrospective case series of 66 foals with presumed acute interstitial pneumonia

Equine Veterinary Education, Volume 38, Issue 3, Page 143-153, March 2026.
Summary Background There is limited literature describing acute interstitial pneumonia (AIP) in foals. Objectives Description of clinical and ultrasonographic findings in 66 foals affected by AIP. Investigation into whether the number of AIP cases is associated with specific climatic conditions. We also investigated whether clinical, haematological and
