Effects of Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Field (RF-EMF) exposure on pregnancy and birth outcomes: A systematic review of experimental studies on non-human mammals
In conclusion, in utero RF-EMF exposure does not have a detrimental effect on fecundity and likely affects offspring health at birth, based on the meta-analysis of studies in experimental mammals on litter size and fetal weight, respectively. Regarding possible delayed effects of in utero exposure, RF-EMF probably does not affect offspring brain weight and may not decrease female offspring fertility; on the other hand, RF-EMF may have a detrimental impact on neurobehavioural functions, varying in magnitude for different endpoints, but these last findings are very uncertain. Further research is needed on the effects at birt...

The mediation effect of lipids, blood pressure and BMI between air pollutant mixture and atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease: The CHCN-BTH cohort study
CONCLUSIONS: Long-term, high-level air pollutant exposure was significantly associated with an elevated risk of ASCVD, particularly for PM2.5. Blood pressure, lipids and BMI, especially HDL-C, may mediate the effects of air pollutants exposure on ASCVD.PMID:37729805 | DOI:10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.115491

Efficient trapping and destruction of SARS-CoV-2 using PECO-assisted Molekule air purifiers in the laboratory and real-world settings
Ecotoxicol Environ Saf. 2023 Sep 18;264:115487. doi: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2023.115487. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTSevere acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is transmitted human-to-human via aerosols and air-borne droplets. Therefore, capturing and destroying viruses from indoor premises are essential to reduce the probability of human exposure and virus transmission. While the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) systems help in reducing the indoor viral load, a targeted approach is required to effectively remove SARS-CoV-2 from indoor air to address human exposure concerns. The present study...

Exposure to sublethal concentrations of thiacloprid insecticide modulated the expression of microRNAs in honeybees (Apis mellifera L.)
This study aimed to investigate the sublethal effects of thiacloprid on microRNA (miRNA) expression in honeybees (Apis mellifera L.) and the role of a specific miRNA, ame-miR-283-5p, in thiacloprid resistance. The high-throughput small RNA-sequencing was used to analyze global miRNA expression profile changes in honeybees orally exposed to sublethal concentrations of thiacloprid (20 mg/L and 4 mg/L) for 72 h. Thiacloprid at 20 mg/L had no observed adverse effects. In addition, bees were fed with miRNA mimics or inhibitors to increase or decrease ame-miR-283-5p expression, and its effects on P450 gene expression (CYP9Q2 and...

How does financial decentralization synergies carbon reduction and pollution control in China?
This study looks at how carbon reduction, pollution management, and monetary decentralization in China all work together for a win-win situation. Since China is the most significant contributor to global warming, the country must implement policies to cut carbon emissions and curb pollution. One possible answer is financial decentralization, delegating federal financial responsibilities, and decisions to state and regional governments. The study used the weighted matrix analysis technique, LM matrix analysis technique, and ARDL short-run and long-run analysis estimates. However, the degree to which it will help China reduc...

Adsorption performance and kinetics of Cr(VI) onto activated carbons derived from the waste leaves of invasive plants Rhus typhina and Amorpha fruticosa
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Sep 20. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29833-7. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTTo maximize the potential of biomass from invasive plants, waste leaves from Rhus typhina (RT) and Amorpha fruticosa (AF) were used to prepare activated carbons (ACs) for the efficient removal of chromium from wastewater. Six ACs were prepared by CO2 activation at 850 °C with varying flow rates (500, 1000, and 1500 mL/min) and characterized by yield, pH, N2 adsorption isotherm, FTIR, SEM, TG, and XPS. The adsorption isotherm and kinetics for chromium removal were analyzed. The outcomes showed that the ACs had mesoporous...

Effects of salinity on methane emissions and methanogenic archaeal communities in different habitat of saline-alkali wetlands
This study conducted simulation experiments of increased salinity to investigate the impact of salinity, habitat, and their interactions on CH4 emissions, as well as to examine the response of methanogenic archaea to salinity. Overall, salinity inhibited CH4 emissions. But there were different responses in the three habitat soils. Salinity decreased the relative abundance of methanogenic archaea and changed the community structure. In addition, salinity changed soil pH and dissolved organic carbon (DOC) and ammonium (NH4+) concentrations, which were significantly correlated with methanogenic archaea. Our study showed that ...

Can network infrastructure construction improve the low-carbon innovation of Chinese enterprises?
This study considers the implementation of the "Broadband China" strategy as an exogenous policy shock and examines the impact of network infrastructure construction (NIC) on the low-carbon innovation (LCI) of enterprises and its underlying mechanisms by using a progressive difference-in-difference model based on the data of Chinese listed enterprises from 2009 to 2020. This study finds that NIC can improve the LCI of enterprises. After the elimination of the sample selection bias and selection of the urban slope as the exogenous instrumental variable, the conclusions remained robust. The results of the mechanism test show...

Biodegradability enhancement of waste lubricating oil regeneration wastewater using electrocoagulation pretreatment
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Sep 20. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29841-7. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTAs a sustainable management of fossil fuel resources and ecological environment protection, recycling used lubricating oil has received widespread attention. However, large amounts of waste lubricating-oil regeneration wastewater (WLORW) are inevitably produced in the recycling process, and challenges are faced by traditional biological treatment of WLORW. Thus, this study investigated the effectiveness of electrocoagulation (EC) as pretreatment and its removal mechanism. The electrolysis parameters (current density, ini...

Nitrogen removal capability and mechanism of a novel heterotrophic nitrifying-aerobic denitrifying strain H1 as a potential candidate in mariculture wastewater treatment
Environ Sci Pollut Res Int. 2023 Sep 20. doi: 10.1007/s11356-023-29666-4. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe nitrogen removal performance and mechanisms of Bacillus subtilis H1 isolated from a mariculture environment were investigated. Strain H1 efficiently removed NH4+-N, NO2--N, and NO3--N in simulated wastewater with removal efficiencies of 85.61%, 90.58%, and 57.82%, respectively. Strain H1 also efficiently degraded mixed nitrogen (NH4+-N mixed with NO2--N and/or NO3--N) and had removal efficiencies ranging from 82.39 to 89.54%. Nitrogen balance analysis revealed that inorganic nitrogen was degraded by heterotrophic nit...

Dendrobium officinale polysaccharides improved reproductive oxidative stress injury in male mice treated with cyclophosphamide
In this study, the mouse model of reproductive injury was established by intraperitoneal injection of cyclophosphamide (CTX). The reproductive function was evaluated by relative testicular mass, sperm parameters, and sex hormone levels. The oxidative stress level of male mice with reproductive injury treated with DOPs was analyzed by the levels of 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8-OHdG), malondialdehyde (MDA), and nitric oxide (NO) in sperm. The expression of follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR) mRNA, androgen-binding (ABP) mRNA, and c-kit mRNA was detected by quantitative reverse transcriptase polymerase chain reaction (...
