Trace Element Contamination in Top Predatory Elasmobranchs From the Southern Black Sea: Implications for Ecosystem Health and Risk Assessment

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental pollution resulting from the rapid increase in human population, urbanization, intensive use of chemicals in agriculture, and industrial development has reached a level that threatens natural life today. Trace elements are one of the most important factors causing significant levels of pollution in the environment and are added ...

Edge‐Channel Aggregation Network and Two‐Stage Fine Tuning Scheme for Handwritten Dongba Character Recognition

CAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Handwritten Dongba Character Recognition (HDCR) contains a large number of visually similar characters with subtle and fragile edge cues, posing severe challenges to feature learning. To address this issue, an Edge Channel Aggregation Network (EdgeCANet) model is proposed.

Diverse DTPA‐chelated lanthanides with relevance for nuclear medicine bound to an engineered lipocalin reveal conserved ligand geometry

Acta Crystallographica Section F, EarlyView.
Structural and binding studies of the engineered lipocalin CL31d towards the chelate complexes of 11 different lanthanide and main‐group metal(III) ions, whose radioisotopes are useful for nuclear medicine, with a functionalized DTPA revealed a surprisingly broad tolerance towards varying ionic radii, thus enabling flexible radionuclide‐targeting ...
