Bioaccessibility, bioaccumulation and effects of tire-associated chemicals for aquatic and soil-dwelling organisms

Kristin Schirmer, Florian Frédéric Vincent Breider, Benoît Jean Dominique Ferrari, Thibault Béranger Masset

Tire and road wear particles (TRWP) are produced by the friction between the tires and road and consist of polymer-containing tread with pavement encrustations. There are many data gaps remaining regarding their fate and potential toxicological impact on t ...

In-vitro and in-silico characterization of zein fiber incorporating cuminaldehyde

Niloufar Sharif

The zein solutions containing different concentrations of cuminaldehyde (5%, 10%, and 20%, w/w) were electrospun. The morphology and average diameter of fibers were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy and the optimized fiber (20% cuminaldehyde) was c ...

Systems Toxicology Approach to Understand the Kinetics of Benzo(a)pyrene Uptake, Biotransformation, and DNA Adduct Formation in a Liver Cell Model

Kristin Schirmer

Cell-based models are important for deriving mechanistic information about stress response pathways that have evolved to protect cells from toxic insult, such as exposure to environmental pollutants. One determinant of the stress response is the amount of ...

Sputtered titanium oxynitride coatings for endosseous applications: Physical and chemical evaluation and first bioactivity assays

Rosendo Sanjines, Alessandro Pontearso

Titanium oxynitride coatings (TiNxO3,) are considered a promising material for applications in dental implantology due to their high corrosion resistance, their biocompatibility and their superior hardness. Using the sputtering technique, TiNxO3, films wit ...

An application of a decision tree for assessing effects from exposures to multiple substances to the assessment of human and ecological effects from combined exposures to chemicals observed in surface waters and waste water effluents

Xiaoxue Han

A decision tree has been developed for evaluating risks posed by combined exposures to multiple chemicals. The decision tree divides combined exposures of humans and ecological receptors into groups where one or more components are a concern by themselves, ...

Subgrid-scale modeling of reacting scalar fluxes in large-eddy simulations of atmospheric boundary layers

Fernando Porté Agel

In large-eddy simulations of atmospheric boundary layer turbulence, the lumped coefficient in the eddy-diffusion subgrid-scale (SGS) model is known to depend on scale for the case of inert scalars. This scale dependence is predominant near the surface. In ...

Chemical investigations on the thermal behaviour of wood during friction welding

Bernhard Stamm, Julius Natterer

Friction welding is a new technology in the course of which wood pieces are subjected to circular or linear movements in a welding machine. The wood in the contact zone is heated and melted. Aiming at a better understanding of the thermal alteration of woo ...
