Determinants and Developmental Consequences of Organic Contaminant Uptake in Nestling Insectivorous Birds
… Pelee National Park, Ontario, Canada and their contaminant contents. Another route of exposure in oviparous organisms is through their eggs, so the contaminant contents in eggs of each population were analyzed. Nestlings’ growth rates were measured in the field from which values consumption …

IMPROVING CANNABIS SATIVA'S PHYTOREMEDIATION CAPABILITIES OF FOREVER CHEMICALS THROUGH MICROBIAL INOCULATIONS
… substances (PFAS) are persistent environmental contaminants that pose ecological and human health risks due to their resistance to degradation and potential for bioaccumulation. Phytoremediation has emerged as a potential strategy for mitigating PFAS contamination, and plant-microbe interactions …

Mechanisms of fixed contamination of commonly engineered surfaces
… to determine film composition and presence of contaminant uptake. The passive film on 316L SS is formed of a passive film consisting of Cr(III) hydroxide rich layer and Cr(III) oxide layers at lower potentials. With increasing HNO3 and potential the layer becomes more Cr(III) oxide rich before …
