Need for coordinated programs to improve global health by optimizing salt and iodine intake

, 2012
High dietary salt is a major cause of increased blood pressure, the leading risk for death worldwide. The World Health Organization (WHO) has recommended that salt intake be less than 5 g/day, a goal that only a small proportion of people achieve. Iodine

Metal‐Free Halogen‐Engineered Carbon Nanotubes for Highly Efficient Oxygen Reduction Reaction

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
In work employs density functional theory screening to guide the halogen engineering of metal‐free, Cl‐mediated carbon nanotubes for a highly efficient oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). Cl‐mediation optimally tunes the electronic structure and binding energies of oxygen intermediates, delivering an ORR activity rivaling that of commercial Pt/C, high 4e−

Salt-reduction strategies may compromise salt iodization programs: Learnings from South Africa and Ghana

, 2021
Objectives: Universal salt iodization has been adopted by many countries to address iodine deficiency. More recently, salt-reduction strategies have been widely implemented to meet global salt intake targets of 9 g/d.

Doped Ta3N5 Semi‐Transparent Photoanode Enabling Stable Solar Redox Flow Cell Operation

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
Synergistic Al:TiO2 underlayer and La doping stabilize semitransparent Ta3N5 photoelectrodes for over 90 h of continuous operation in alkaline solution. The solar redox flow cell demonstrated 12 photocharge–discharge cycles at ∼55% coulombic efficiency using a K4Fe(CN)6|1,5‐DHAQ chemistry. Solar redox flow cells (SRFCs) are photoelectrochemical devices

Iodine Stability in Commercial Salt Brands in Nigeria

, 2017
Inadequate supply of iodine in human diet has been the major causes of some public health disorders. Potassium iodate (KIO3) is the chemical form of iodine mostly added to edible salts to complement the amount gotten through diet to prevent iodine ...
