Towards circular phosphorus: The need of inter- and transdisciplinary research to close the broken cycle

Claudia Rebeca Binder Signer

Phosphorus (P) is an essential element to all living beings but also a finite resource. P-related problems center around broken P cycles from local to global scales. This paper presents outcomes from the 9th International Phosphorus Workshop (IPW9) held 20 ...

Effect of cetyltrimethylammonium chloride on various Escherichia coli strains and their inactivation kinetics by ozone and monochloramine

Urs von Gunten, Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Margaux Océane Voumard

Cethyltrimethylammonium chloride (CTMA) is one of the most used quaternary ammonium compounds (QACs) in consumer products. CTMA and other QACs are only partially eliminated in municipal wastewater treatment and they can interact with bacteria in biological ...

Enhancing solar disinfection (SODIS) with the photo-Fenton or the Fe2+/peroxymonosulfate-activation process in large-scale plastic bottles leads to toxicologically safe drinking water

César Pulgarin

Solar disinfection (SODIS) in 2-L bottles is a well-established drinking water treatment technique, suitable for rural, peri-urban, or isolated communities in tropical or sub-tropical climates. In this work, we assess the enlargement of the treatment volum ...

Detection of environmental glucocorticoids and investigation of their effects using the zebrafish embryo as a model

Anita Orsolya Hidasi

Synthetic glucocorticoids (GCs) are widely used anti-inflammatory drugs. They mimic cortisol, the natural stress hormone in humans and in fish. Cortisol binds and activates the glucocorticoid receptor (GR), which regulates genes governing development, immu ...
