Cotton strips as a model substrate for analysis of leaf‐litter‐colonizing microbial assemblages in streams

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Leaf‐litter decomposition is a key indicator of the functional integrity of stream ecosystems and cotton strips have been employed as a standard substrate for quantification of litter‐decomposition rates in streams across the globe. Cotton strips also offer a standardized method for assessing structural integrity of stream microbial ...

Automatization of multistep sample preparation for microplastics monitoring in aquatic environments

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Microplastics (MP) have been found in every environmental compartment in urban and remote areas. Although their ubiquity is widely recognized, the lack of harmonized protocols for sampling, sample preparation, and particle identification/quantification hinders comparability among studies.

Fluorenone and Fluorenemalononitrile‐Tethered Conjugated Microporous Polymers for Efficient CO2 Uptake and Rhodamine B Removal

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
TPET‐F2CN CMP exhibited higher CO2 uptake (2.88 mmol g−1 at 273 K) and superior Rhd B adsorption, with an equilibrium capacity of 98.12 mg g−1 and a maximum monolayer capacity of 155.6 mg g−1. ABSTRACT Herein, two conjugated microporous polymers (CMPs), TPET‐FO and TPET‐F2CN, are functionalized with carbonyl and nitrile groups.

Mass Spectrometry in Authentication and Forensic Approaches for Determining the Origin of Hazardous Chemicals

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Identification of a chemical agent yields insights into its physicochemical properties. By examining the intrinsic characteristics and environment of a compound, information about its history can be gathered. The main objective of authentication/forensic approaches to chemicals is to trace the history of the compound's origin, regardless of ...

Toxicity Differences Between Microplastics and Nanoplastics in Organs: From Molecular Mechanisms to Potential Therapeutic Strategies

Med Research, EarlyView.
This review systematically compares the size‐dependent toxicity of microplastics and nanoplastics in the intestine, liver, kidney, lung, and brain. Particle size determines bioavailability, barrier penetration, and injury mechanisms. Because of their small size and high surface reactivity, NPs readily cross the intestinal epithelium and blood–brain ...

Emergencies in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis

Muscle &Nerve, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Emergencies are frequent in people living with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (pALS), especially as the disease progresses, and can necessitate urgent evaluation and intervention. Progressive weakness in ALS inevitably increases fall risk, making discussion of fall prevention strategies integral to caring for pALS.

Hydro‐Mechanical Modelling of Gas Migration in Bentonite: Formulation and Laboratory‐Scale Validation

International Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Gas generation and migration in bentonite buffer materials are critical processes affecting the performance of deep geological repositories for radioactive waste. This study presents a new hydro‐mechanical formulation for simulating gas migration in saturated, compacted bentonite, with particular emphasis on the role of non‐uniform stress ...
