A pot-based planting experiment of was carried out to study the influence of the compound modifier FZB (iron sulfate+zeolite+modified biochar) on the physical and chemical properties of soil, As and Cd bioavailability and morphology, and the ability of to accumulate As and Cd at different dosages. The results showed that, after application of FZB, the pH, OM, and CEC contents of the rhizosphere soil tended to increase in As and Cd compound contaminated farmland soils. The concentrations of available As and available Cd in the soil gradually reduced with an increase in FZB application, with maximum reductions of 65.99% and 30.68%, respectively. The application of FZB significantly changed the morphology of heavy metals in the soil, which consequently decreased the exchangeable concentrations of As and Cd, while the concentrations of aluminum-bound As, iron-bound As, organic bound Cd, and residual Cd increased. At the same time, the application of FZB effectively reduced the concentrations of As and Cd in the roots and aerial parts of When 8 g·kg of FZB was applied, compared with the control group, the concentrations of As and Cd in the aerial parts of were reduced by 42.09% and 31.34%, respectively. FZB application decreased the As and Cd bioaccumulation capacity of the roots and aerial parts, and decreased the capacity of the plant to translocate As from the roots to the aerial parts. The study shows that the composite modifier FZB has good application prospects for reducing the bioavailability of As and Cd in farmland soils.

Background: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) ranks as the sixth most common malignancy globally. Cisplatin is the standard chemotherapy for OSCC, but resistance often reduces its efficacy, necessitating new treatments with fewer side effects. Rumex dentatus L.

Stinging nettle () is an herbaceous perennial plant native to Eurasia, wildly distributed throughout the temperate parts of the world. Although generally considered as a weed due to its fast growth and invasive capacity, stinging nettle is well suited to cultivation and is currently experiencing a revival as a beneficial crop due to its numerous potential applications. This interest reflects in an increasing number of scientific articles related to nettle in the last years.

The aerial parts (Herba Saniculae) and the underground parts (Radix Saniculae) of (sanicle) have been used traditionally in Austrian folk medicine to treat wounds. Interestingly, in the Austrian vernacular, "Radix Saniculae" can also refer to the underground parts of . This ambiguity can lead to mistakes in using these two plants and, importantly, adulterations.

is an opportunistic pathogen that causes nosocomial infections of the urinary tract, upper respiratory tract, gastrointestinal tract, central nervous system, etc. It is possible to develop bacteremia and sepsis in immunocompromised patients. A major problem in treatment is the development of antibiotic resistance.
