Also, caspase-3 activity was increased in liver and gill tissue, but this increase was statistically significant only in gill tissue (p less then 0.05). When the results of the study were taken into consideration, it was concluded that different doses of FP insecticide caused physiological changes in rainbow trout and the studied parameters were usable biomarkers in explaining the adaptive response of stress factor.Brominated flame retardants (BFRs) are commonly used in consumer products and they shed off these products and eventually build up in household dust. Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), in particular, are known endocrine-disrupting chemicals affecting various hormone syntheses. Portable X-ray fluorescence spectroscopy (XRF) is the most common non-destructive method in identifying BFRs in environmental samples. However, the method is insensitive to bromine speciation. Synchrotron-based XRF has been shown to have very low detection limits ( less then 1 μg/g) that is suitable for detecting BFRs and can be combined with X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy (XANES) to identify the bromine species present in the household dust. Twenty indoor dust samples were collected from rural homes in Newfoundland (Canada) to assess the use of synchrotron-based techniques to identify BFRs. Synchrotron-based XRF analysis identified bromine in all the samples, with concentrations ranging from 2-19 μg/g. XANES analysis identified organic-based bromine species in several samples that are likely BFRs based on the spectral line shape. The accuracy of using XANES to identify BFRs is highly dependent on the source and size of the dust samples. Therefore, for future research, it is important to take into account the sources of dust sample and to focus on fine dust particles.The response of the transformation of internal phosphorus (P) to resuspended sediment was investigated in the sediment-water system under different disturbance intensity. The sediments and overlying water were collected from Taihu Lake, a typical shallow lake. The concentrations of particulate P (PP) and dissolved inorganic P (DIP) in the water phase and algal available P (AAP) and P fractions in the sediments and suspended particle characteristics were evaluated in laboratory-simulated experiments. The results show that dissolved oxygen (DO) in the overlying water increased continuously and pH decreased slightly under sediment resuspension. The concentration of ammonia nitrogen (NH4+-N) showed a distinct decline, indicating that sediment resuspension promotes the penetration of DO into the sediments. It was also favor of the formation of metal oxides and hydroxides, inducing soluble amorphous metal compounds oxidized to insoluble crystalline metal compounds under disturbance condition. This resulted in the increase of refractory P in sediment compared with the static conditions. Sediment resuspension is beneficial to long-term P retention. This can be confirmed by the increase of maximum P adsorption amount (Qmax) and the decrease of the degree of P saturation (DPS) and equilibrium P concentration (EPC0). This is the main explanation of DIP decrease in the overlying water. It is indicating that sediment resuspension not only improves the redox environment in the sediment-water system but also enhances P retention capacity.The anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2) denseness in the earth's atmosphere is increasing day-to-day by combusting fossil fuels for power generation. And, it is the most important greenhouse gas (GHG) responsible for 64% of global warming. Solvent-based carbon capture gained more attention towards researchers because of its easiness to integrate with the coal-fired power plant without significant modifications. During CO2 absorption, the physical property of the solvent gets changed. A change in the solvent's physicochemical property affects further CO2 absorption, thereby increasing the carbon-capture energy demand. The present experimental study encompasses CO2 absorption studies using 30 wt% aqueous monoethanolamine (MEA), 2-amino-2-methyl-1-propanol (AMP) and piperazine (PZ) followed by the detailed analysis of physicochemical properties (pH, carbon loading (α), viscosity (μ), density (ρ) and surface tension (σ)) of various CO2-loaded solutions. The results revealed that these properties are exhibiting interdependent eccentrics. Furthermore, an empirical model was developed to predict the carbon loading of the tested solvents. This model includes the tested physicochemical properties, reaction mixture temperature, diffusivity and change in the mass of solvent during carbon loading. G140 mw In addition, an empirical model for viscosity as a function of temperature, carbon loading and molecular weight of solvents was developed. These models appear to predict the carbon loading and the viscosity well with greater accuracy. Graphical abstract.Formaldehyde is a colorless and highly irritating substance that is used as a preservative and chemical fixative in tissue processing in pathological laboratories. Formaldehyde is mutagenic and is classified by the IARC as the definitive carcinogen (A1 group). This cross-sectional descriptive-analytical study was performed to determine the respiratory exposure of 60 employees of pathology labs with formaldehyde and to estimate carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risk in Iran in 2018-2019. Occupational exposure to formaldehyde was assessed in summer season using the NIOSH 3500 method and a personal sampler with flow of 1 l/min connected to two Glass Midget Impingers containing 20 ml of 1% sodium bisulfate solution. The respiratory symptoms questionnaire provided by the American Thoracic Society was used to assess the health effects of formaldehyde exposure. The carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risk assessment of inhaled exposure to formaldehyde was also performed using the USA Environmental Protection Agency (OEHHA) method. The mean respiratory exposure of employees to formaldehyde was 0.64 mg/m3 (range 0.1474 to 1.3757). Occupational exposure in 28.3% (n = 17) of employees was above the OSHA recommended range. Wheezing (24%), burning eyes (25%), and cough (21.7%) were the most prevalent health problems. The mean ± SD of the carcinogenic risk among the employees was 3.45 × 10-4 ± 2.27 × 10-4. The highest mean of carcinogenic risk was found in lab workers (4.44 × 10-4). Given the high level of carcinogenic and non-carcinogenic risk of respiratory exposure to formaldehyde in pathological employees, especially lab worker, the use of management controls, engineering controls, and respiratory protection equipment to reduce exposure levels of all workers to less than the allowed exposure limits seems necessary.
