Monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) specific to aristolochic acid I (AAI) were produced from a hybridoma cell line, 10D9E10, and used to establish a rapid and sensitive indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ciELISA) and immunochromatographic strip (immunostrip) for detecting AAI in herbal remedies....

The incorporation of recycled plastics in asphalt mixtures is getting a growing interest, however, exposing recycled plastics to the high working temperatures of asphalt has posed health and safety concerns. Few studies have paid attention to assessing health and environmental risks concerning...

The concentrations of DDT and its metabolites in 19 sediment samples from a highly developed agricultural region in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River were measured. Non-carcinogenic hazard quotient for different age groups was evaluated using reference doses provided by the USEPA, and the...

Anaerobic digestion is one of the most promising methods for reducing sewage sludge and recovering energy. In the present study, a comparative life cycle assessment (LCA) of sewage sludge anaerobic digestion processes with different digestate treatments, including mesophilic anaerobic digestion...

Pharmaceutical contaminations in the water resources becomes very serious global environmental issue. Therefore, these pharmaceutical molecules should be removed from the water resources. In the current work, 3D/3D/2D-Co₃O₄/TiO₂/rGO nanostructures were synthesized through a facile...

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are common contaminants in the environment that can threaten the populace living close to contaminated soil. Soil samples were collected from the study and control areas which were analyzed for PAHs using Gas chromatography. The detected PAHs concentrations...

Heavy metals (HM) are one of the main agents that threaten human health. The most important source that release heavy metals (As, Cd, Cu, Cr, Pb, Ni, V, and Zn) in the environment is Petrochemical industries. This study was investigated the carcinogenic risk assessment, health endpoint and source...

Aim: Mesothelioma is associated with asbestos exposure. In this case series, we present 166 cases of individuals who had substantial asbestos exposure to cosmetic talc products as well as some who had potential or documented additional exposures to other asbestos-containing products and who...

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have gathered worldwide attention due to their carcinogenicity and toxicity. This paper aims to review and extend current knowledge on PAHs in aquatic environments in Turkey, where expansion of the marine industry has caused contamination concerns. To assess...

The high toxicity and carcinogenicity of mercury ions (Hg²⁺) motivates the development of efficient technologies for their removal from water. In this work, a pyridine-based covalent organic framework (Pyridine-COF) was synthesized via the Schiff base condensation reaction of...
