Summary: A novel 2D nanosheet ammonium cobalt phosphate hydrate catalyst has been developed for efficient oxygen evolution in alkaline saline water electrolysis, achieving high current densities at record-low overpotentials. The activation of Co (II) ions to Co (III) species constructs electrocatalytic active sites, providing larger active surface area and more surface-exposed active sites for facilitating oxidation reactions. The environmentally-benign synthesis route and cost-effective alternative to noble metals make this catalyst highly feasible for practical manufacturing.

Summary: The salinization of the water environment has posed a significant threat to the survival of aquatic animals. The adaptability of crucian carp to saline-alkali water is not well understood. In this study, the effects of saline-alkali stress on the kidney of crucian carp were assessed through histopathology, biochemical assays, and metabolomics analysis. The findings suggested that saline-alkali stress caused kidney damage and altered renal function and metabolic profiles. This study provides insights into the adverse effects of saline-alkali stress on crucian carp kidney and the regulatory mechanism at the metabolic level.

Summary: In recent years, the use of mixed microbial cultures for nitrogen removal has gained attention due to cooperative metabolism. A natural bacterial-fungal consortium isolated from mariculture showed excellent aerobic denitrification capacity, with nitrate removal and denitrification efficiencies reaching 100% and 44.27%, respectively. High-throughput sequencing and network analysis revealed that the co-occurrence of bacterial genera such as Vibrio and fungal genera such as Fusarium potentially drove the aerobic denitrification process. The consortium also exhibited high steady aerobic denitrification performance in sub-culturing experiments, highlighting its potential for biotechnology applications.

Summary: The aim of this study was to evaluate the impact of cellulose-based bio-plastics on the biological stabilization of mixed municipal solid waste. The results showed that the presence of cellulose-based bio-plastics did not significantly affect the temperature, oxygen consumption, and carbon dioxide production of the waste mixture. Additionally, the disintegration rate of the bio-plastics remained stable over time. These findings suggest that cellulose-based bio-plastics can be effectively managed for energy recovery purposes.

Summary: Biodegradation rate is an important indicator for assessing the environmental risk of chemicals. However, atmospheric pressure variations can affect the measurement of oxygen consumption in biodegradation tests, leading to underestimation of the biodegradation rate. The effects of atmospheric pressure variations can be mitigated by adjusting reactor volume, test material amount, and recording atmospheric pressure for further modification.

Summary: The objective of this study is to incorporate soil hydraulic properties into the erodibility factor (K) of USLE-type models. By modifying and improving the existing equations for soil texture and permeability, the study successfully included information on saturated hydraulic conductivity (Ksat) into the calculation of K factor. Using the Random Forest machine learning algorithm, two independent K factor maps with different spatial resolutions were generated. The results show that the decrease in K factor values has a positive impact on the modeling of soil erosion rates.

Summary: Atmospheric PM2.5, which can generate reactive oxygen species (ROS), is associated with cardiorespiratory morbidity and mortality. The study found that both the mass concentration of PM2.5 and the DTT activity were higher during the heating season than during the nonheating season. Combustion sources were the primary contributors to DTT activity during the heating season, while secondary formation dominated during the nonheating season. The study also revealed that biomass burning had the highest inherent oxidation potential among all sources investigated.

Summary: This study investigated the presence of aluminum in human colon cancer samples and its potential association with biological processes involved in cancer progression. Aluminum was found in tumor areas of 24% of patients and was associated with epithelial to mesenchymal transition (EMT) and cell death. Additional analyses revealed higher tumor mutational burden and mutations in genes related to EMT and apoptosis in aluminum-positive colon cancers. Understanding the molecular mechanisms of aluminum toxicity may improve strategies for the management of colon cancer patients.
