Abstract:: ... The reuse of treated wastewater or wastewater-impacted river water is growing, particularly in arid areas, due to the climate change. As well, the disposal of sludges, biosolids or biochar as soil amendments to improve agricultural output is widely implemented in the EU. These practices can be a source of emerging contaminants and engineering nanomaterials (ENMs) to the environment and condition t ...

Abstract:: ... Despite the large number of studies focused on the impact of diseases on urine proteome, few outputs with clinical meaning were retrieved so far. The goal of this study was to identify the biological processes modulated in urine by distinct diseases to better understand disease pathogenesis and to identify urinary proteins with potential diagnosis value. We searched PubMed and SCOPUS databases for ...

Abstract:: ... Aptamer-based biosensors may be of significant benefit to forensic analysis by allowing the rapid, sensitive and specific detection of molecular targets relevant to criminal investigation. However, despite the production efficiency, stability and cost effectiveness of aptamer recognition moieties, aptasensors have yet to find commercial employment within any area of forensic science. This review t ...

Subject:: hydrophilic interaction chromatography; mass spectrometry; polar compounds; reversed-phase liquid chromatography
Abstract:: ... Hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC) has gained widespread acceptance as an alternative to reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) for the retention and separation of polar compounds. Because a great number of emerging organic contaminants are polar, this represents progress in terms of solving most of the problems and limitations encountered in the conventional methods develo ...
