Article Synopsis
  • Coenzyme Q (CoQ) is a vital compound in energy production within cells but has poor bioavailability when traditionally administered, creating a need for better delivery systems.
  • A new multi-step process was established to create and analyze CoQ-loaded nanomicelles, leading to the synthesis of ten different formulations and the use of advanced analytical techniques for precise measurement.
  • This novel approach not only allows for improved quality control of these formulations but also addresses the challenges of existing standards in the field, ensuring stability and reproducibility.

This study examined the impacts of oil spills since 2019 by analyzing polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in sediments and their effects on the fecundity of the shrimp Alpheus estuariensis. Samples were collected from mangroves in three Pernambuco locations: Catuama, Suape Bay, and Carneiros Beach. Ovigerous females were identified, and their eggs were counted and classified by embryonic stage.

This study combines responses from a social survey with compound flood modeling in a marginalized coastal community to assess implementation of green infrastructure, such as rain barrels and rain gardens, in a city scale. This research focuses on the City of Imperial Beach, CA, which is an underserved coastal community located near the border with Mexico. A principal objective of the present research was analyzing social survey responses and the public's perceptions to estimate the extent to which decentralized water infrastructure might be accepted by and feasible for the target underserved coastal community.
