Pilot-scale adsorption of pharmaceuticals from municipal wastewater effluent using low-cost magnetite-pine bark: Regeneration/enumeration of viable bacteria with a study on their biotoxicity.

Chemical Process Engineering, P.O. Box 4300, FIN-90014 University of Oulu, Oulu, Finland.
A low-cost and renewable magnetite-pine bark (MPB) sorbent was evaluated in continuous-flow systems for the removal of various pharmaceuticals from municipal wastewater effluent following membrane bioreactor (MBR) treatment. A 33-day small-scale column test (bed volume: 791 cm) was conducted using duplicate columns of biochar (BC, Novocarbo) and activated carbon (AC, ColorSorb) as reference for two columns of BC and MPB in order to compare the efficiency of AC and MPB. After the small-scale column test, the pharmaceutical concentrations were generally below the detection limit.

Objective: This study examined the prevalence of the use of prescription medicines and other drugs by a selected subgroup of New Zealand drivers. The use of potentially impairing prescription drugs by the driving population is largely unknown. The population studied was drivers who were stopped by police, failed a breath alcohol test, elected to provide a blood sample for laboratory analysis, and had blood alcohol levels exceeding the legal limit.

Sex-Gender Differences Are Completely Neglected in Treatments for Neuropathic Pain.
Pharmaceuticals (Basel)

Department of Biomedical Sciences, Section of Neurosciences and Clinical Pharmacology, University of Cagliari, 09042 Monserrato, CA, Italy.
Article Synopsis
- Research indicates that sex-gender differences can affect how men and women respond to medications for neuropathic pain, with women generally achieving higher blood levels and experiencing more side effects.
- A limited number of studies have explored these differences specifically in neuropathic pain treatments, with most focusing instead on other conditions like depression.
- To improve treatment outcomes for the 60% of neuropathic pain patients who don't respond adequately to medications, further targeted research is essential to understand these sex-gender differences better and enable personalized treatment approaches.
Bioconcentration of pharmaceuticals by aquatic flora in an Australian river system.
Sci Total Environ
October 2024
Future Regions Research Centre, Federation University Australia, Ballarat, Victoria, Australia.
Pharmaceuticals are emerging contaminants in the environment and are a ubiquitous presence in rivers downstream of wastewater treatment plant outfalls. Questions remain about the persistence of pharmaceuticals in rivers, and the uptake and bioconcentration of pharmaceuticals by aquatic plants. Our study took place in the Yarrowee/Leigh/Barwon River system in southeastern Australia.
