Abstract Bioremediation is a cost‐effective and eco‐friendly approach to decontaminate soils polluted by petroleum hydrocarbons. However, this technique usually requires long time due the slow degradation rate bacteria. By applying U‐tube microbial fuel cells (MFCs) designed here, of hydrocarbons close anode (<1 cm) was enhanced 120% from 6.9 ± 2.5% 15.2 0.6% with simultaneous 125 7 C charge output (0.85 0.05 mW/m 2 , 1 kΩ) in tested period (25 days). Hydrocarbon fingerprint analysis...

Selecting a phytoextraction plant with moderate to high Cd-accumulating ability and biomass based on the plant's compatibility mechanized cultivation techniques may yield more immediately practical results. In present study, six Chinese cabbage cultivars were grown in three soils, ranging from 0.15 2.25 mg Cd kg(-1) soil, examine uptake translocation of their tissues. The results indicated that order shoot concentration values was as follows: Beijingxiaoza 56 > Suancaiwang Quansheng Qiubo 60...

Two-dimensional (2D) nanostructures are mainly confined to being obtained from intrinsically layered crystals via an exfoliation approach or epitaxial growth method, thereby greatly limiting the choice of 2D available for high-performance optoelectronic devices. Here, we introduce efficient PDMS printing strategy simultaneously realize controllable preparation and subsequent transfer a large-area non-layered Ga2O3 amorphous layer on basis ultrathin oxide skin liquid Ga. More importantly,...

Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) is a common mycotoxin in food and the environment that lead to multi-organ injury humans animals. The objective of this study was evaluate detoxification properties dietary total flavonoids Rhizoma drynariae (TFRD), Chinese herbal, on aflatoxin (AFB1)-induced hepatic oxidative damage apoptosis liver broiler chickens. A 160 healthy specific pathogen free (SPF) 21-day-old broilers were randomly allocated 4 groups, including CON group (basal diet), TFRD diet with 125 mg/kg...

Abstract Two‐dimensional (2D) transition‐metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) such as molybdenum disulfide (MoS 2 ) have recently attracted extensive interest for building future optoelectronic devices. However, the limited light absorption, low photoresponsivity and slow response speed in visible range inhibit their further application. Here, we proposed a promising approach to realize high‐performance photodetectors (PDs) by constructing 2D‐MoS flake/1D‐ZnO nanowire mixed‐dimensional...

Abstract Biodegradable nanocomposites were prepared by melt blending biodegradable poly(lactic acid) (PLA) and poly(butylene adipate- co -butylene terephthalate) (PBAT) (70/30, w/w) with diatomite or talc (1–7%). From the SEM test, particles transported to interface of two phases, which acted as an modifier strengthen interfacial adhesion between PLA PBAT. Talc nucleating agents improve crystallization PBAT in blends DSC analysis. Moreover, adding improved tensile impact toughness blends....

In an environment of high salinity, low temperature, and the presence a few bacteria in seawater, improving non-enzymatic hydrolysis polyesters is one effective methods for developing seawater degradable materials. this research, poly(butylene furandicarboxylate-co-glycolate) (PBFGA) copolyesters were synthesized via melt polycondensation. The PBFGA copolymer possessed excellent mechanical properties thermal stability. Its tensile strength was 15–50 MPa elongation at break more than 120%...

As a green remediation technology, phytoremediation is becoming one of the most promising methods for treating petroleum hydrocarbons (PHCs)-contaminated soil. Pot culture experiments were conducted in this study to investigate potential two representative Iridaceae species (Iris dichotoma Pall. and Iris lactea Pall.) hydrocarbon-contaminated saline-alkali soil from Dagang Oilfield Tianjin, China. The results showed that I. was more endurable extremely high concentration PHCs (about 40,000...

Ketosis is a nutritional metabolic disease in dairy cows, and researches indicated that ketonic cows always accompany reproductive problems. When ketosis occurs, the levels of non-esterified fatty acids (NEFAs) β-hydroxybutyrate (BHBA) blood increase significantly. Palmitic acid (PA) main component saturated composing NEFA. The aim this study was to investigate whether high PA BHBA induce inflammatory responses regulatory mechanisms bovine endometrial cells (BEND). Using an enzyme-linked...

Considerable efforts have been undertaken to accelerate the breakdown of existing anthropogenic petroleum hydrocarbons (PHCs) by appropriate in situ remediation technologies. In phytoremediation, using higher plants remove, stabilize, degrade, and/or metabolize hazardous contaminants, has emerged as a promising green technology for cleaning up environments contaminated with PHCs. Weed are generally considered great potential use phytoremediation due their extensive fibrous root systems and...
