Using long-term gamma-ray spectroscopy with high resolution germanium detectors and a ratio method, the half-lives of Rh and Ag have been determined to be 4.07 ± 0.05 years and 448 ± 27 years, respectively. These results are compared with previously reported values.

Persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are ubiquitous in the environment and display the capacity to bioaccumulate in living organisms, constituting a hazard to both wildlife and humans. Although restrictions have been applied to prohibit the production of several POPs since the 1960s, high levels of these compounds can still be detected in many environmental and biological matrices, due to their chemical properties and significantly long half-lives. Some POPs can be passed from mother to the fetus and can gain entry to the central nervous system (CNS), by crossing the blood-brain barrier (BBB), resulting in significant deleterious effects, including neurocognitive and psychiatric abnormalities, which may lead to long-term socio-economic burdens.

Article Synopsis
- Systemic antibiotic prophylaxis (SAP) is crucial in preventing infections after joint surgeries, but there's disagreement on how long and how much should be given.
- Recent studies indicate that extending SAP for less than 24 hours after surgery could lead to better outcomes than a single dose.
- Researchers advocate for more thorough recording of SAP practices in national registries to improve understanding and guidance on optimal antibiotic use in arthroplasty.
Impact of glyphosate on soil bacterial communities and degradation mechanisms in large-leaf tea plantations.

Article Synopsis
- The study examined how glyphosate affects bacterial communities in large-leaf tea soil using samples from Yunnan, China.
- Glyphosate led to a two-phase degradation process with varying half-lives, showed a complex interaction with soil conditions, and influenced bacterial diversity and community structure differently based on soil type.
- Results indicated specific bacteria may play key roles in glyphosate degradation, providing insights for environmental restoration efforts.
