Water sources near mining regions are often susceptible to contamination from toxic elements. This study employs machine learning (ML) techniques to evaluate drinking water quality and identify pollution sources near a chromite mine in Iran. Human health risks were assessed using both deterministic and probabilistic approaches. Findings revealed that concentrations of calcium (Ca), chromium (Cr),

Adipic acid is an industrially important dicarboxylic acid and an essential precursor in the synthesis of Nylon-6,6. Due to the environmental impact associated with the current synthetic methods for Nylon-6,6 production, greener alternatives based on renewable and bio-based feedstocks are needed. In the present study, the potential of two Pseudomonas putida strains engineered for muconic acid

För snart ett decennium sedan startade en intensiv debatt om flygets klimatpåverkani svenska medier. I dess kölvatten har en social rörelse för minskat flygresande tagitform – flygfrittrörelsen. Den består av individer och organisationer som tillsammansengagerar sig för minskat flygresande, dels genom att delta i kampanjer och annatpåverkansarbete, och dels genom att själva avstå flygresande.Min aThe need for demand-side climate solutions is increasingly recognized in science and society. Such solutions imply that demand for goods and services is targeted either via changes in the use of infrastructure and technology or via cultural changes in consumption and lifestyle among the global affluent. In this thesis, I explore how to enable cultural change around affluent overconsumption through

Amaranthus caudatus is a nutrient-rich Andean pseudocereal with wide genetic variability. Six productive varieties (Oscar Blanco, Pucara, Tomina, Cotahuasi, Barbechos, and Guindo Criollo) were compared by proximate, mineral, and fatty acid composition. The proximal content showed certain singularities in the varieties. Barbechos and Guindo Criollo stood out for their fat content (9.50% and 9.01%,

This paper explores the intersection of corporate sustainability and recruitment perspectives in Swedish companies, examining the use of one hundred and seven sustainability keywords in more than 230 000 IS/IT job ads collected from the Swedish Public Employment Service. The study emphasizes the pressing need for a new breed of computing professionals to address environmental challenges and climat

Physical properties such as break resistance, chalkiness, and size dimensions are very important for grading rice quality. Today, most of the methods used for determining these properties are performed manually, making them both time-consuming and, to some extent, subjective, which, in turn, can affect the determination of rice quality and, thereby, the price. A collaborative study was conducted b

AIMS/HYPOTHESIS: The aim of this work was to explore molecular amino acids (AAs) and related structures of HLA-DQA1-DQB1 that underlie its contribution to the progression from stages 1 or 2 to stage 3 type 1 diabetes.METHODS: Using high-resolution DQA1 and DQB1 genotypes from 1216 participants in the Diabetes Prevention Trial-Type 1 and the Diabetes Prevention Trial, we applied hierarchically orga

Fabrication of CoNb2O6 thin films was possible through spin-coating an alkali-free, aqueous solution of a polyoxoniobate ([Nb10O28]6-, Nb10) and a cobalt nitrate (Co(NO3)2), followed by annealing. The results showed that depending on the calcination conditions, minor phases of unreacted Co3O4 and β-Nb2O5 may form alongside the columbite CoNb2O6 phase. However, optimizing the calcination conditions

The tumor microenvironment of brain metastases has become a focus in the development of immunotherapeutic drugs. However, countless brain metastasis patients have not experienced clinical benefit. Thus, understanding the immune cell composition within brain metastases, and how the immune cells interact with each other and other microenvironmental cell types, may be critical for optimizing immunoth

Tertiary Lymphoid Structures (TLS) are organized aggregates of immune cells such as T cells, B cells, and Dendritic Cells (DCs), as well as fibroblasts, formed postnatally in response to signals from cytokines and chemokines. Central to the function of TLS are DCs, professional antigen-presenting cells (APCs) that coordinate the adaptive immune response, and which can be classified into different

In human proteomics, substantial efforts are ongoing to leverage large collections of mass spectrometry (MS) fragment ion spectra into extensive spectral libraries (SL) as a resource for data independent acquisition (DIA) analysis. Currently, such initiatives in equine research are still missing. Here we present a large-scale equine SL, comprising 6394 canonical proteins and 89,329 unique peptides
