Water contaminants have a high potential risk for the health of populations and for this reason their toxic effects urgently should be established. The present study was carried out to determine whether an environmentally ...

The planetary building blocks that formed in the terrestrial planet region were likely very dry, yet water is comparatively abundant on Earth. Here we review the various mechanisms proposed for the origin of water on the ...

This account is focused on highlighting the recent advances on synthetically-useful organic reactions employing siliconcentered radicals in water, and presenting new reactions in water, mediated by silyl radicals. In doing ...

In this work, we investigated the effect of bromide ion (Br−) on NDMA formation using model precursor compounds, wastewater effluents and surface waters. Previous studies showed that Br− reacts with chloramines and forms ...

A polyacrylamide hydrogel containing the Chelex-100 resin has traditionally been used as the binding agent for the diffusion gradients in thin films (DGT) technique. The Chelex-100 resin, although important for the ...

One of the most important subjects of debate in the formation of the solar system is the origin of Earth's water. Comets have long been considered as the most likely source of the delivery of water to Earth. However, ...
