Synopsis of recent research by authors named "Xinhua Zhan"
- Xinhua Zhan's recent research primarily focuses on the environmental impact and recovery methods related to pollutants, specifically gold recovery from electronic waste, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and nanoplastics in agricultural settings.
- Key findings involve the development of a new water-soluble organic leaching agent for efficient gold recovery, revealing the role of nitric oxide and auxin in enhancing PAH uptake in plant roots, and examining the mechanisms of nanoplastic accumulation in wheat seedlings.
- The studies employ advanced methodologies such as proteomics, in vitro experiments, and computational modeling to elucidate the interactions of these contaminants with plant systems and to identify potential harm to food chains and ecosystems.
