Abstract:
... Covalent organic frameworks (COFs) have great potential applications in chromatographic separation. So it is crucial to understand the relationship between the separation ability of COFs and their structures. Here we report a strategy to evaluate the separation ability of three 2D COFs and explore the relationship between separation ability and their molecular structures. The three 2D COFs (COF-LZ ...

Abstract:
... Bioaugmentation is an effective approach to remediate soils contaminated by polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), but suffers from unsatisfactory performance in engineering practices, which is hypothetically explained by the complicated interactions between indigenous microbes and introduced degraders. This study isolated a cultivable pyrene degrader (Sphingomonas sp. YT1005) and an active pyre ...

Abstract:
... Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (DEHP) is a ubiquitous environmental endocrine disruptor. DEHP can be absorbed into the human body through the air, food, water, and skin. After entering the human body, DEHP is rapidly converted to mono(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate (MEHP) with greater toxicity than DEHP. An increasing number of studies indicates that DEHP or MEHP can damage the thyroid tissue and disrupt the ...
