Fluorous and Organic Extraction Systems: A Comparison from the Perspectives of Coordination Structures, Interfaces, and Bulk Extraction Phases.

Microscopic structures in liquid-liquid extraction, such as structuration between extractants or extracted complexes in bulk organic phases and at interfaces, can influence macroscopic phenomena, such as the distribution behavior of solutes, including extraction efficiency and selectivity. In this study, we correlated the macroscopic behavior of the Zr(IV) extraction from nitric acid solutions with microscopic structural information to understand at the molecular level the key factors contributing to the higher metal ion extraction performance in the fluorous extraction system as compared to the analogous organic extraction system. The fluorous and organic extraction systems consist of tris(4,4,5,5,6,6,7,7,7-nonafluoroheptyl) phosphate (TFP) in perfluorohexane and tri--heptyl phosphate (THP) in -hexane, respectively.

An Innovative One Health Approach: BIOQUALIM, a Transdisciplinary Research Action Protocol-From Cultivated Biodiversity to Human Health Prevention.

Background/objectives: The "One Health" approach underscores the connection between human, animal, and environmental health, promoting solutions to global challenges like climate change and biodiversity loss. The Planetary Health Diet (PHD) promotes a plant-based diet with organically grown plants to reduce the environmental impact of meat production and decrease the risk of non-communicable diseases (NCDs). The BIOQUALIM project will evaluate the PHD's effectiveness in preventing NCDs like periodontal diseases and cancers through four inter-related studies.

French Version of the User Mobile Application Rating Scale: Adaptation and Validation Study.

Background: Managing noncommunicable diseases effectively requires continuous coordination and monitoring, often facilitated by eHealth technologies like mobile health (mHealth) apps. The end-user version of the Mobile Application Rating Scale is a valuable tool for assessing the quality of mHealth apps from the user perspective. However, the absence of a French version restricts its use in French-speaking countries, where the evaluation and regulation of mHealth apps are still lacking, despite the increasing number of apps and their strong relevance in health care.
