The heavy metal pollution control industry requires convenient and cost-effective solutions to address complex aqueous environment. Adsorption method can be an effective strategy to realize these goals. Considering the importance of environmental and sustainable development strategies, there is an urgent need to develop efficient, green and non-toxic heavy metal adsorbents. In this work, a robust aminated cellulose-based porous adsorbent (PGPW) was developed from delignified wood and amino-rich polymer using a solvent-free, mild, simple and efficient preparation method. Such adsorbent exhibited excellent adsorption capacity (188.68 mg g) for Cu(II), and its adsorption behavior was consistent with pseudo-second order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm models. Notably, PGPW with superior compressibility could be squeezed to achieve rapid desorption and reach equilibrium within 5 min, while still retaining 87 % adsorption efficiency after 50 cycles. In addition, PGPW showed remarkable selectivity towards various coexisting ionic systems and demonstrated a considerable adsorption capacity in natural water applications. The adsorption mechanism of heavy metal ions on porous adsorption material was elucidated. This approach provides a simple, gentle and sustainable strategy for preparing functionalized wood-based composites with efficient adsorption and ultra-fast desorption of heavy metal ions.

Limited literature addresses the association between pollution, stress, and obesity, and knowledge synthesis on the associations between these three topics has yet to be made. Two reviewers independently conducted a systematic review of MEDLINE, Embase, and Web of Science Core Collection databases to identify studies dealing with the effects of semi-volatile organic compounds, pesticides, conservatives, and heavy metals on the psychosocial stress response and adiposity in humans, animals, and cells. The quality of papers and risk assessment were evaluated with ToxRTool, BEES-C instrument score, SYRCLE's risk of bias tool, and CAMARADES checklist.

Objectives: The data were collected to obtain the complete genome sequence of Pseudarthrobacter sp. NIBRBAC000502770, isolated from the rhizosphere of Sasamorpha in a heavy metal-contaminated coal mine in Hongcheon, Republic of Korea. The objective was to explore the strain's genetic potential for plant growth promotion and heavy metal resistance, particularly arsenate and copper.

The superposition of heavy metals (HMs) from multiple anthropogenic sources in geochemical anomaly areas makes it difficult to discriminate prime sources in atmospheric HMs. This study utilized a combination of microscopic features, positive matrix factorisation, and Pb isotope fingerprints to trace the main sources of HMs bound to total suspended particulates (TSP) at a pollution site (Msoshui: MS) and control site (Lushan: LS) in northwestern Guizhou. The results reveal that the concentrations of Cd, Pb, Cr, As, Cu, Ni, and Zn in the TSP of LS are 3.

Purpose: We hypothesize that distal shunt catheters fully impregnated with barium are more prone to failure compared to distal catheters with only a barium stripe. We sought to evaluate this distinction using a matched case-control study.
Methods: Patient records over an 8-year period were queried for distal shunt revisions for fracture or disconnection (cases).

Background: Heavy metal contamination, particularly from lead (Pb), poses a significant threat to plant agriculture worldwide, adversely affecting growth, physiological functions, and yield. Signalling molecules such as calcium and salicylic acid are known to mitigate various stresses in plants, prompting this study to explore their interaction with Pb stress in wheat.
Methods: A pot experiment was conducted in which wheat grains were primed with either distilled water, 5 mM calcium (Ca), or 0.
