Ecotoxicology is the study of the effects and fate of contaminant substances on ecosystems. It aims to determine if there is an ecological risk by comparing the concentration that produces toxic effects with the environm...

Coastal regions are sectors where human activities impact the marine ecosystem, and if necessary control measures are not taken, they can generate negative consequences for health and ecosystem services. Within the frame...

Raman scattering can provide information on molecular fingerprints, which have been widely applied in various fields of material science and nanobiotechnology. Notably, low interference with water molecules in obtaining ...

Mercury (Hg) is a contaminant of global concern, and an accurate understanding of its atmospheric fate is needed to assess its risks to humans and ecosystem health. Atmospheric oxidation of Hg is key to the deposition of...

The pecan nutshell [Carya illinoinensis (Wangenh) C. Koch] (PNS) is a source of bioactives with important beneficial properties for the human health. PNS represents between 40–50 % of total mass of the nut, resulting ...

Strong coupling between light and molecular matter is currently attracting interest both in chemistry and physics, in the fast-growing field of molecular polaritonics. The large near-field enhancement of the electric fie...

The realization of higher coupling strengths between coupled resonant modes enables exploration of compelling phenomena in diverse fields of physics and chemistry. In this study, we focus on the modal coupling between lo...

The purpose of this work was to investigate the interaction of graphene-like nanoclusters with fragments of polymers of the same nature, but of a slightly different structure, for example, polyethylene (PE) and polypropy...

Metallic lithium plays an important role in the development of next-generation lithium metal-based batteries. However, the uncontrolled growth of lithium dendrites limits the use of lithium metal as an anode. In this con...

This work presents a theoretical investigation of carbon dioxide (CO2) adsorption on MgH2 and its reaction (chemisorption) with cobalt doped MgH2. The focus of this study is the properties and mechanisms involved in CO2 ...

Nanoporous iron oxide ceramics were studied for the removal of virus contamination from water. Supported and unsupported iron oxide nanostructured hematite was fabricated by a green chemistry route from ferroxane nanopar...
