The pre-concentration of major constituents is crucial to accurate and precise determination of trace metals in water samples by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). In this work, NOBIAS chelate resins were used in the sample concentration for both HPLC and ICP-MS detection. 4-(2-Pyridylazo) resorcinol (PAR) was selected as a precolumn chelating reagent for this research. 520 nm wavelength was used as to minimize the peak of PAR and to reduce baseline noise for HPLC analysis. The sample pre-treatment step was achieved by enrichment and Cd(II), Co(II), Cu(II), Mn(II), Ni(IV), Pb(II), and Zn(II) were detected in the bottled water and tap water samples. The results of two detection methods of ICP-MS and HPLC were compared. Results showed that by acquiring 50-time pre-concentrates of test samples using 250 mg of the Nobias-chelate PA1 chelating resin, the metal contents could be accurately detected using both ICP-MS and HPLC. And the approach of HPLC enables the quantitative detection of bottled water and tap water at different concentrations with determination coefficient (R) greater than 0.9990. This simple and cost-effective quantitative detection approach using NOBIAS chelate resins and HPLC may widen the application of NOBIAS chelate resins for quantitative detection of more water samples.

Phytoplankton are diverse photosynthetic organisms in estuarine ecosystems and sensitive indicators of environmental changes. This study employed Generalized Additive Model (GAM) to explore the impact of environmental variables on the abundance of six dominant phytoplankton species in the tropical Karanja estuary, India. Data were collected from five sampling stations between January 2022 and March 2023.

Compound-specific stable isotope analysis (CSIA) using liquid chromatography-isotope ratio mass spectrometry (LC-IRMS) is a powerful tool for determining the isotopic composition of carbon in analytes from complex mixtures. However, LC-IRMS methods are constrained to fully aqueous eluents. Previous efforts to overcome this limitation were unsuccessful, as the use of organic eluents in LC-IRMS was deemed impossible.

To clarify the effects of kefir in critical periods of development in adult diseases, we study the effects of kefir intake during early life on gut microbiota and prevention of colorectal carcinogenesis in adulthood. Lactating Wistar rats were divided into three groups: control (C), kefir lactation (KL), and kefir puberty (KP) groups. The C and KP groups received 1 mL of water/day; KL dams received kefir milk daily (10 CFU/mL) during lactation.

Unlabelled: The mummichog, , an abundant estuarine fish broadly distributed along the eastern coast of North America, has repeatedly evolved tolerance to otherwise lethal levels of aromatic hydrocarbon exposure. This tolerance is linked to reduced activation of the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AHR) signaling pathway. In other animals, the AHR has been shown to influence the gastrointestinal-associated microbial community, particularly when activated by the model toxic pollutant 3,3',4,4',5-pentachlorobiphenyl (PCB-126) and other dioxin-like compounds.
