A novel procedure for the extraction of soluble, sparingly soluble and insoluble Cr(VI) from solid samples was presented. EDTA was added to an ammonia buffer commonly used only for the extraction of soluble and sparingly soluble Cr(VI). In the course of extraction in an ultrasonic bath cations which form insoluble chromates are complexed with EDTA while Cr(VI) is transferred to the solution. A concentration of EDTA equal to 0.01molL(-1) was chosen. The presence of EDTA in the extraction solution enables not only dissolution of insoluble Cr(VI) but also, as reported previously in literature, minimises oxidation of Cr(III) to Cr(VI). The extraction procedure was optimised and applied to Cr(VI) determination in the paint chips real sample. The results obtained were compared with the results obtained using two other extraction procedures. The results show that the novel extraction procedure can be used for the extraction of soluble, sparingly soluble and insoluble Cr(VI) from real solid samples.

Road activities are recognized sources of pollution that affect the hydrochemistry of nearby water bodies. This study evaluated the Water Quality Monitoring Program in the Soberbo and Iconha rivers in the Guapi-Macacu watershed, which is affected by the BR-116 highway. The Rio-Teresópolis Concessionaire from 2009 to 2016 carried out quarterly sampling.

Background/objectives: The correlation of handgrip strength (HGS) and morphological characteristics with Big Five personality traits is well documented. However, it is unclear whether these relationships also exist in highly trained and specialized populations, such as tactical athletes, and whether there are specific differences compared to the general population. This study aimed to explore the interplay of handgrip neuromuscular, morphological, and psychological characteristics in tactical athletes and the general population of both genders.

Herein, an amino-functionalized covalent organic framework was synthesized and accommodated in the pores of porous hollow fiber. In this context, tetra (4-aminophenyl) porphyrin was synthesized for preparing the desired covalent organic framework as the extracting sorbent and employed for hollow fiber solid-phase microextraction of tebuconazole and propiconazole. With respect to the amino groups of the as-synthesized porphyrin-based covalent organic framework, the extracting device has the ability of establishing a hydrogen bond with the selected model analytes.

Background: This study aimed to explore the accuracy of third-generation nanopore sequencing to diagnose extrapulmonary tuberculosis (EPTB).
Methods: Samples were collected from the lesions of 67 patients with suspected EPTB admitted between April 2022 and August 2023. Nanopore sequencing, acid-fast bacilli (AFB) staining, DNA testing, and X-pert and mycobacterial cultures were performed.
