Synergistic reduction of air pollutants and carbon dioxide emissions in Shanxi Province, China from 2013 to 2020.

Synergistic reduction of air pollutants and carbon dioxide (CO) emissions is currently a key environmental policy in China, yet provincial-level studies remain scarce. To fill the gap, this study developed a coupled emission inventory from 2013 to 2020 in Shanxi, a coal-dependent province critical to China's energy security. This facilitated the investigation of emission trends, primary sources, synergistic effects, and spatial distribution.

Study on Spatial Effects of Influencing Factors and Zoning Strategies for PM and CO Synergistic Reduction.

China has identified the synergistic reduction of pollution and carbon emissions as a crit ical component of its environmental protection and climate mitigation efforts. An assessment of this synergy can provide clarity on the strategic management of both air pollution and carbon emissions. Due to the extensive regional differences in China, the spatial effects of influencing factors on this synergy exhibit variation across different provinces.

Effect of acute exposure of saxitoxin on development of zebrafish embryos (Danio rerio).

As a type of cyanobacterial toxins, saxitoxin (STX) is receiving great interest due to its increasing presence in waterbodies. However, the underlying mechanism of STX-induced adverse effect is poorly understood. Here, we examined the developmental toxicity and molecular mechanism induced by STX using zebrafish embryos as an animal model.

In-situ growth of gold nanoparticles on a 3D-network consisting of a MoS2/rGO nanocomposite for simultaneous voltammetric determination of ascorbic acid, dopamine and uric acid.

A glassy carbon electrode was modified with a 3D-networked nanostructure composed of MoS, reduced graphene oxide and gold nanoparticles (3D-MoS/rGO/Au). The composites were prepared through in-situ growth of gold nanoparticles on 3D-MoS/rGO nanosheets via a hydrothermal method. The morphology and electrochemical features of the composite were investigated.
