Abstract:
... Microplastic accumulation in the lake aquatic environment has attracted worldwide attention, but the long-term deposition characteristics and influencing factors of microplastics are not clear. Hence, we attempted to analyze the factors that influence the accumulation of microplastics during the process of natural environmental change and social development through the method of the sedimentologic ...

Abstract:
... In this paper, we have found that adjacent double-strand DNA (dsDNA) can enhance the fluorescence intensity of the G-triplex (G31)-thioflavin T (ThT) complex. By connecting the newly formed dsDNA with the G31 sequence, terminator nopaline synthase (TNOS) gene and Hg²⁺ were detected. The intermolecular duplex hybridization (e.g., TNOS gene and its complementary DNA), or the intramolecular mismatche ...

Abstract:
... Abundant reserves of metals and oil have spurred large-scale mining developments across northwestern Canada during the past 80 years. Historically, the associated emissions footprint of hazardous metal(loid)s has been difficult to identify, in part, because monitoring records are too short and sparse to have characterized their natural concentrations before mining began. Stratigraphic analysis of ...
