Polypropylene Nonwoven Fabric Filters Containing Graphene Oxide: A Streamlined Approach to Enhance Ultrafine Particulate Matter Removal

open access: yesPolymer Engineering &Science, EarlyView.
A simple graphene oxide coating strategy enhanced the ultrafine particulate matter (PM0.1) filtration performance of polypropylene nonwoven filters. The oxygen‐containing functional groups of graphene oxide improved particle capture while preserving low pressure drop and high air permeability.

Precision agriculture for water saving: The case of processing tomato and table grape

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Agriculture faces increasing pressure to produce high‐quality food while reducing water use under intensifying climate change and water scarcity. This study compared sensor‐based precision irrigation, drone monitoring, and near‐infrared spectroscopy with conventional farmer management in table grape and processing tomato production systems.

Soil health assessment using buried cotton underpants with the help of 1000 citizen scientists

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Soil is a vital resource for life on Earth. Although many soils are degraded, societal awareness of soil‐related issues is limited. To highlight soil as a key resource and fascinating study system, we initiated a citizen science project together with 1000 participants investigating soil health across Switzerland using buried cotton underpants.

Protective Effects Induced by a Novel Food Supplement Based on Epilobium angustifolium, Ptychopetalum olacoides, Ginkgo biloba, and Equisetum arvense Extracts and Citrulline in the Lower Urinary Tract: Preclinical and Clinical Evidence

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oxyfil is a dietary supplement including plant extracts from Epilobium angustifolium, Ptychopetalum olacoides (Muira puama), Ginkgo biloba, and Equisetum arvense and citrulline. The aim of the study was to investigate the protective effects on prostatic muscles of the Oxyfil formulation in an in vitro experimental model consisting of isolated ...

Mixed TiO2–SiO2 thin coatings for selective adsorption and sunlight‐powered photodegradation of cationic pollutants

open access: yesResponsive Materials, EarlyView.
Environmental pollution and water scarcity demand innovative purification methods. This study presents a sol‐gel approach to fabricate mixed silica–titania thin films joining photocatalytic activity with selective sorption capability. The films exhibit higher surface area, enhanced degradation of cationic and improved performance over bare titania ...

One Size Does Not Fit All—Ignoring Spatial Variation in Occupancy and Detectability Underestimates the Required Number of Camera Trap Sites

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Camera trap occupancy studies often rely on simple rules of thumb that assume constant occupancy and detection across sites. Using simulations, we show that accurate occupancy estimates require 10–40 sites with no spatial variation, 20–120 with simple variation and 40–600 with complex spatial structures.
