The influence of low and high alpha-tocopherol diets in concert with a high polyunsaturated fat content and a modest increase in dietary iron has been studied. Iron supplementation at 5 times the recommended dietary level was not associated with any increased sensitivity of splenocytes to any of several oxidative challenges ex vivo. Despite the significantly higher alpha-tocopherol concentrations in plasma and liver in animals supplemented with this vitamin, there was no apparent protection against oxidative genotoxicity as judged by the formation of micronuclei in splenocytes subjected to oxidative stress ex vivo. These results add to the accumulating evidence that vitamin E supplementation has little effect against oxidative genomic damage, at least as demonstrated by an increase in micronucleus frequency.

Epoxides are versatile chemical intermediates that are used in the manufacture of diversified industrial products. For decades, thermochemical conversion has long been employed as the primary synthetic route. However, it has several drawbacks, such as harsh and explosive operating conditions, as well as a significant greenhouse gas emissions problem.

Carbon monoxide (CO) gas therapy, as an emerging therapeutic strategy, is promising in tumor treatment. However, the development of a red or near-infrared light-driven efficient CO release strategy is still challenging due to the limited physicochemical characteristics of the photoactivated carbon monoxide-releasing molecules (photoCORMs). Here, we discovered a novel photorelease CO mechanism that involved dual pathways of CO release via photosensitization.

Improving interfacial stability between cathode active material (CAM) and solid electrolyte (SE) is vital for developing high-performance all-solid-state batteries (ASSBs), with compatibility issues among the cell components representing a major challenge. CAM surface coating with a chemically inert ion conductor is a promising approach to suppress side reactions occurring at the cathode interfaces. Another strategy to mitigate mechanical degradation involves utilizing single-crystalline particle morphologies.

This study aimed to understand the impact of municipal basic sanitation policies and plans on the rate of access to drinking water and sewage services. For this, data were collected from the 853 municipalities of Minas Gerais regarding the provision of sanitation, as well as socioeconomic, quality of life and demographic indicators, treated with the t-test techniques for differences between means and Propensity Score Matching. The results revealed the need for greater sanitation planning in the state since a significant portion of municipalities do not have formal planning instruments for the sector.
