Chitosan, Gelatine, and Cellulose Based Hydrogels for the Removal of Potentially Toxic Elements from Aquaculture Water: A Comparative Study

Advanced Sustainable Systems, EarlyView.
Hydrogels made of chemically modified biopolymers are easy to prepare and cost‐effective, they have proven to be effective materials for the simultaneous removal of seven potentially toxic elements (PTEs) from ultrapure and real water samples. The cellulose‐based one seems the best for single treatments while the gelatine‐based one seems the most ...

Dynamic and Stable Core Microbiota Assist Plants in Enriching Selenium and Reducing Cadmium Absorption

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
During different developmental stages of plants in natural Se–Cd coexisting soils, there is a group of rhizosphere microorganisms with highly dynamic abundance. The abundance variation of these microorganisms is strongly positively correlated with available Se and strongly negatively correlated with available Cd.

Weight Cycling Deregulates Eating Behavior in Mice via the Induction of Durable Gut Dysbiosis

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Weight cycling in Humans is suspected to dysregulate eating behavior. Mice submitted to body weight cycling by alternating western‐type and regular chow diets display increased hedonic appetite when exposed to a palatable diet, reminiscent of binge‐eating episodes.
