Abstract:
... 3-tert-Butyl-4-hydroxyanisole (3-BHA), one of the widely used food antioxidants, has been found to act as a potential obesogen by promoting adipogenesis in vitro and inducing white adipose tissue development in vivo. Whether 3-BHA-induced visceral obesity was accompanied by a disruption of hepatic lipid homeostasis in mammals remained unclear. In this study, we evaluated the effect of 3-BHA on the ...

Abstract:
... Natural organic matter (NOM) components measured with ultrahigh-resolution mass spectrometry (UHRMS) are often assessed by molecular formula-based indices, particularly related to their aromaticity, which are further used as proxies to explain biogeochemical reactivity. An aromaticity index (AI) is calculated mostly with respect to carboxylic groups abundant in NOM. Here, we propose a new constrai ...

Abstract:
... California’s dairy sector accounts for ∼50% of anthropogenic CH₄ emissions in the state’s greenhouse gas (GHG) emission inventory. Although California dairy facilities’ location and herd size vary over time, atmospheric inverse modeling studies rely on decade-old facility-scale geospatial information. For the first time, we apply artificial intelligence (AI) to aerial imagery to estimate dairy CH₄ ...

Abstract:
... The environmental mobility of Cu and therefore its potential toxicity are closely linked to its attachment to natural organic matter (NOM). Geochemical models assume full lability of metals bound to NOM, especially under strong oxidizing conditions, which often leads to an overestimation of the lability of soil metals. Stable isotope dilution (SID) has been successfully applied to estimate the lab ...
