Promising Health Benefits of the Strawberry: A Focus on Clinical
WebThe potential health benefits associated with dietary intake of fruits have attracted increasing interest. Among berries, the strawberry is a rich source of several nutritive and non-nutritive bioactive compounds, which are implicated in various health-promoting and disease preventive effects. A plethora of studies have examined the benefits of …
Dietary Bioactive Lipids: A Review on Absorption, Metabolism, and
WebDietary lipids are an indispensable source of energy and nutrition in human life. Numerous studies have shown that dietary bioactive lipids have many health benefits, including prevention or treatment of chronic diseases. The different chemical compositions and structural characteristics of bioactive lipids not only affect their digestion, absorption, …
Indoor Air Pollutant Exposure for Life Cycle Assessment: Regional
WebHuman exposure to indoor pollutant concentrations is receiving increasing interest in Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). We address this issue by incorporating an indoor compartment into the USEtox model, as well as by providing recommended parameter values for households in four different regions of the world differing geographically, economically, …
Emissions of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons from Natural Gas
WebNatural gas extraction, often referred to as “fracking”, has increased rapidly in the United States in recent years. To address potential health impacts, passive air samplers were deployed in a rural community heavily affected by the natural gas boom. Samplers were analyzed for 62 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Results were grouped based …
New Insights into Traditional Health Risk Assessments of Mercury
WebThere is increasing evidence that selenium (Se) has a significant effect on mercury (Hg) toxicology; however, Hg exposure risk assessments usually consider only the amount of Hg present in the environment or in food. On the basis of the present understanding of mechanisms of interaction between Se and Hg, the physiology/toxicology of Se, and the …
A Missing Puzzle Piece of Pollutant Metabolism in Humans: The …
WebFully elucidating the metabolic pathways of thousands of environmental pollutants mediated by GM is a critical step in evaluating their subsequent biological effects, and the findings mentioned above highlight the need for systematic investigations of the transformative actions of the GM on pollutants.
Addressing Biases in Ambient PM2.5 Exposure and Associated …
WebAmbient PM2.5 exposure statistics in countries with limited ground monitors are derived from satellite aerosol optical depth (AOD) products that have spatial gaps. Here, we quantified the biases in PM2.5 exposure and associated health burden in India due to the sampling gaps in AOD retrieved by a Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer. …
Localization and Speciation of Mercury in Brown Rice with …
WebCultivation of paddy rice for human consumption is a dominant agricultural activity throughout Asia. High levels of mercury (Hg) in rice grain pose a potential threat to human health, although the extent of risk is dependent on the chemical speciation of Hg inside the grain. We have investigated the speciation and localization of Hg in three fractions of rice …
Materials-Driven Soft Wearable Bioelectronics for Connected …
WebIn the era of Internet-of-things, many things can stay connected; however, biological systems, including those necessary for human health, remain unable to stay connected to the global Internet due to the lack of soft conformal biosensors. The fundamental challenge lies in the fact that electronics and biology are distinct and …
Assessing Human Health Risks from Per- and Polyfluoroalkyl …
WebIrrigation water or soil contaminated with per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) raises concerns among regulators tasked with protecting human health from potential PFAS-contaminated food crops, with several studies identifying crop uptake as an important exposure pathway. We estimated daily dietary exposure intake of individual PFASs in …
Levels, Spatial Distribution, and Impact Factors of Heavy Metals in …
WebChronic exposure to low levels of heavy metals threatens human health. However, few studies evaluated the health effects and spatial distributions of chronic exposure to heavy metals in metropolitan residents throughout mainland China using unified sampling methods and evaluation indicators at the national level. Here, the concentrations and spatial …
Increased Impact of Aviation on Air Quality and Human Health in …
WebChina’s civil aviation market has rapidly expanded, becoming the world’s second-largest. However, the air quality and health impacts caused by its aircraft emissions have been inadequately assessed. Here, we leverage an updated emission inventory of air pollutants with improved temporal and spatial resolution based on hundreds of thousands of flight …
Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment and Molecular Biology: …
WebQuantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) has now been in use for over 35 years and has formed the basis for developing criteria for ensuring public health related to water, food, and remediation, to name a few areas. The initial data for QMRA (both in exposure assessment and in dose response assessment) came from measurements …
Persistent Organic Pollutants in Human Breast Milk and …
WebEpidemiological studies have indicated the thyroid-disrupting effects of persistent organic pollutants (POPs). However, the association of low-exposure POPs with thyroid hormones (THs) remains unclear. Here, we aim to assess the association of low exposure of POPs, including polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs), polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs), …
Toward Understanding the Antitumor Effects of Water-Soluble …
WebHere we report the synthesis and investigation of anticancer effects of a series of water-soluble fullerene derivatives bearing amino acid (F1–F7) and thioacid (F8–F10) residues. Compounds F4 and F10 efficiently inhibited proliferation of lung cancer cells in vitro while being nontoxic to endothelial cells. It was revealed that the cancer cell death was caused …
Perspectives on Astringency Sensation: An Alternative Hypothesis …
WebFlavor is one of the main drivers of food consumption and acceptability. It is associated with pleasure feels during eating. Flavor is a multimodal perception corresponding to the functional integration of information from the chemical senses: olfaction, gustation, and nasal and oral somatosensory inputs. As a result, astringency, as a sensation mediated by the …
Highly Tough, Stretchable, Self-Healing, and Recyclable Hydrogels
WebIt remains a challenge to fabricate healable and recyclable polymeric materials with simultaneously enhanced tensile strength, stretchability, and toughness. Herein, we report a simple approach to fabricate high-performance polymer hydrogels that not only integrate high tensile strength, stretchability, and toughness but also possess self-healing and …
