On the Dendrite-Suppressing Effect of Laser-Processed Polylactic Acid-Derived Carbon Coated Zinc Anode in Aqueous Zinc Ion Batteries
Angew Chem Int Ed Engl. 2024 Apr 24:e202405048. doi: 10.1002/anie.202405048. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA major bottleneck limiting the commercialization of aqueous zinc ion batteries (AZIBs) is dendrite formation on the zinc anode during the plating/stripping process, which leads to rapid performance and device failure. In this regard, researchers are trying to design more stable anodes toward suppressing dendrite formation. One possible solution to tackle this problem and to extend the cycling life of AZIBs is to modify the zinc anode surface by coating carbonaceous materials, enabling controlled charge flux and unifo...

Cadmium/zinc stresses and plant cultivation influenced soil microflora: a pot experiment conducted in field
In this study, the impacts of comfrey (Symphytum officinale L.) cultivation and the stresses of cadmium/zinc (Cd/Zn) on rhizosphere soil microflora were examined. Microbial DNA was collected from soils to evaluate the prevalence of bacteria and fungi communities in rhizosphere soils. High-throughput 16 S rRNA sequencing was used to determine the diversity of the bacterial and fungal communities. The results showed that growing comfrey on polluted soils reduced the levels of Cd and Zn from the vertical profile. Both the comfrey growth and Cd/Zn stresses affected the community of rhizosphere microorganisms (bacteria or fungi...

Association between dietary zinc intake and olfactory dysfunction: a study based on the NHANES database
ConclusionDaily dietary zinc intake within the range of 9.60 –17.45 mg has a protective effect against olfactory dysfunction. Intake outside this range increases the prevalence of olfactory dysfunction. The prevalence of olfactory dysfunction is significantly higher in individuals aged 60 and above compared to those under 60 years old. For individuals wit h a BMI of 25–30 kg/m2 and a BMI ≥ 30 kg/m2, dietary zinc intake is negatively correlated with olfactory dysfunction. Therefore, it is recommended that these populations increase their dietary zinc intake to develop healthier lifestyles and maintain olfacto...

Rare-earth elements in the topsoils of a russian industrial city: sources and human health risk assessment
This study investigates the potential sources and human health risks of REEs contained in the topsoils of the industrial Russian city of Chelyabinsk. The study also takes into account natural sources of REE as the city is located on the border of granites (Urals) and sedimentary rocks (Western Siberia). We analyzed the concentration and distribution of REEs in the soils of four types of locations: residential courtyards, city parks, roadsides, and industrial locations. The total REE concentrations ranged from 44 to 255 mg/kg, with average concentrations of 140, 124, 113 and 89 mg/kg in the courtyards, roadsides, industrial...
