Abstract. The surface air warming over the Arctic has been almost twice as much global average in recent decades. In this region, unprecedented amounts of smoldering peat fires have identified a major emission source climate-warming agents. While is known about greenhouse gas emissions from these fires, there knowledge gap on nature particulate and their potential role atmospheric warming. Here, we show that aerosols emitted burning Alaskan Siberian peatlands are predominantly brown carbon...
Introduction: The search for the optimal agent infection eradication in periprosthetic joint (PJI) remains challenging as there are limited efficacious and safe options. ideal solution should have significant bactericidal anti-biofilm activity to be able eradicate with preservation of prosthetic components. Therefore, purpose this study was 1) investigate efficacy a novel activated zinc against Pseudomonas aeruginosa methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) biofilm vitro 2) compare...
