The scarcity of water resources and their pollution are vital to modern civilization. Thus, adsorptive membranes are promising candidates to be applied in the filtration systems to improve the water quality. In summary, this study investigated the effect of chitosan (CS) in the morphological, chemical, and physical aspects of PLA-based membranes incorporating chitosan obtained by electrospinning process, their adsorption behavior in multielement aqueous systems containing Cr, Cu, Zn, Mn , Ni, and Cd in pH 4, and the possible removal mechanism on the composite electrospun membrane's surface.

Background: It is known that the heavy metals cobalt and chromium are associated with neurotoxicity. Chromium (Cr) and Cobalt (Co) are both components of metal-on-metal (MoM) implants which can be degraded/fragmented and released into the bloodstream. Neurofilament Light Chain (NfL) is a neuron-specific protein that increases in serum following axonal damage.

The increasing release of toxic heavy metals into marine environments poses significant risks due to their persistence and bioaccumulation. Diatoms are ideal bioindicators because of their sensitivity to environmental changes. Despite traditional methods for detecting these persistent pollutants effectively identify composition and concentration, they are time-consuming, they often require the use of harmful reagents, and do not allow a fast assessment of detrimental impacts on marine organisms.

Arsenic and chromium, common polyvalent heavy metals found in soil, are a growing environmental concern, yet research on soil threshold values for these metals is limited. This study presents a method for deriving soil guidelines based on published literature, considering two land types (parkland and industry), two exposure pathways (direct contact and food chain for mammalian and avian), and two toxicity levels (NOEC/LOAEL and EC50/LC50). Soil guidelines for inorganic arsenic (III & V) and chromium (III & VI) were derived separately for parkland and industry, factoring in direct contact and food chain exposures (applicable only to parkland) and both lower and upper toxicity levels from available data.

Introduction: The domestic cat (Felis catus) is a valued companion animal and a model for virally induced cancers and immunodeficiencies. However, species-specific limitations such as a scarcity of immune cell markers constrain our ability to resolve immune cell subsets at sufficient detail. The goal of this study was to characterize circulating feline T cells and other leukocytes based on their transcriptomic landscape and T-cell receptor repertoire using single cell RNA-sequencing.
