ABSTRACT The continuous increasing discharge of synthetic dyes into aquatic systems seems to be an important environmental and health risk due to their high toxicity and resistance to biodegradation. Among these dyes, methylene blue (MB) and Congo red (CR) are widely used in textile and industrial applications, necessitating sustainable and efficient ...

ABSTRACT Water pollution by oil and organic substances causes serious problems that threaten the ecosystem. Superhydrophobic materials represent an effective solution for removing oil from water. The present paper investigates the development of a low‐cost, superhydrophobic composite for oil–water separation.

Terpenoid-Induced Feeding Deterrence and Antennal Response of Honey Bees [PDF]
Multiple interacting stressors negatively affect the survival and productivity of managed honey bee colonies. Pesticides remain a primary concern for beekeepers, as even sublethal exposures can reduce bee immunocompetence, impair navigation, and reduce ...

Bifunctional Reduced Graphene Oxide Derivatives for PFOA Adsorption
A bifunctional graphene‐based material is developed for selective PFAS adsorption from water. Thermally reduced graphene oxide is modified with quaternary ammonium groups and fluorinated chains, promoting electrostatic and fluorine–fluorine interactions. Surface functionality is characterized by X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy,

Potential repellency of cedarwood oil from a novel extraction method to stored product insects [PDF]
Producers lose 10-30% of crops during storage, processing, and marketing after harvest each year to stored product insects (1,2). Globally, there has been a rise in insecticide resistance to phosphine, the most common fumigant for these pests (3).

Using a coordinated regulation strategy of interface and ligand, we developed a nickel cobalt sulfide/carboxylate ligand‐modified nickel cobalt hydroxide composite (NiCo‐S/NiCo‐OH‐CL) with abundant heterointerfaces. Owing to the porous network, sulfur‐repellent hydrophilic surface, and dual electronic structure regulation, the coupled electrolysis ...
