Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are extensively used in applications such as environmental monitoring, surveillance, and smart security, but their performance is limited by the restricted energy capacity of sensor nodes,...

Abstract The productivity decline of technological wells during in situ leaching (ISL) is primarily associated with clogging of well filters and the near-filter zone, leading to a significant increase in hydraulic resist...

Grazing reduces grass cover and promotes the dominance of shrubs with high concentration of soluble phenols, which may leach from their canopies and reach neighboring plants and soils. Despite their potential allelopathi...

Abstract Wireless Sensor Networks comprise low-cost, low-power, lightweight, and multifunctional sensor nodes capable of sensing and transmitting data from remote or hazardous environments to a central base station. Thes...

Abstract The purpose of this study was to evaluate how universal adhesives affected the proliferation of gingival fibroblasts and human dental pulp stem cells by measuring cell viability at different time points: 1 min,...

Biostimulation and bioaugmentation are promising for remediating acid in-situ leaching (AISL) U mine groundwater, yet their efficiencies, mechanisms, and acid stress regulation remain unclear. This study collected ground...

Abstract Background Nanodelivery represents a promising strategy to enhance pesticide efficacy while reducing associated environmental risks. Mesoporous silica nanospheres (MSNs) can serve as effective nanocarriers but i...

Di-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is a ubiquitous environmental endocrine disruptor that leaches from polyvinyl chloride products and metabolizes to mono-(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP), causing spermatogenic dysfunctio...

Cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) technology is widely used for pipeline rehabilitation, but curing emissions and leachates may introduce complex chemical mixtures into air and drinking water, raising environmental health conce...

Mineral-associated organic matter, the dominant form of relatively stable carbon (C) in soil, often co-occurs with reactive iron (Fe) and aluminum (Al) phases across soils. Yet, how organo-metallic associations at the mo...

Abstract Residues of pharmaceuticals are gradually accumulating in surface water resources because of the disposal of wastewater effluent. For the present study, four surface water resources (rivers and streams) that rec...

Introduction Sarcoidosis is a heterogeneous granulomatous disease with highly variable clinical trajectories, yet no validated biomarkers exist to distinguish progressive sarcoidosis (P-sarcoidosis) from non-progressive ...
