We assessed 16 legacy and emerging HFRs in plasma and stool, with 5 in plasma and 9 in stool samples included in the final analysis. ADHD-related traits were assessed using behavioral questionnaires and the Conners Continuous Performance Test. Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging was used to assess brain functional connectivity in four ADHD-relevant brain networks. We applied covariate-adjusted linear regression models to examine associations between HFRs and outcomes, applying a false discovery rate correction of 0.1 for multiple comparisons. Several nominally significant associations were identified before correction, including a positive association between anti-DP and attention problems, negative associations between Dec602 and hyperactivity, and BB153 and hit reaction time variability. However, none remained significant after multiple comparison correction. Overall, we observed no significant associations between HFR concentrations in plasma or stool and ADHD-related traits or brain functional connectivity, suggesting that there is limited evidence for a link between them.","PeriodicalId":36,"journal":{"name":"环境科学与技术","volume":"11 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.028,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145194492","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The increasing deployment of wind turbines also creates significant waste when turbine materials reach their end-of-life. Glass fiber reinforced polymer composites, which comprise the majority of a wind turbine blade's mass, are difficult to separate into their component parts for recycling. This study employs a cradle-to-gate life cycle assessment to evaluate the environmental impacts of utilizing waste wind turbine blade material in cement clinker and fiberglass production. We find that incorporating waste blades as 15% of the feedstock in a cement clinker production plant reduces global warming and human health-respiratory impacts by 9 and 34%, respectively, compared to using virgin materials only. For a fiberglass plant, this substitution increases global warming impacts by 11% but decreases respiratory health impacts by 3%. Each kilogram of secondary product diverts approximately 0.25-0.32 kg of WTB waste from landfills. The projected rate of blade decommissioning of ∼800,000 tonnes per year would replace less than 1% of the overall virgin material demand for the cement clinker industry and up to 8% for the fiberglass industry, indicating plenty of capacity for these industries to accommodate this waste blade material in their feedstocks.","PeriodicalId":36,"journal":{"name":"环境科学与技术","volume":"101 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.028,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145203529","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on 90 clinical studies (2016-2025), we define the human plastiphere as a bioparticulate system composed of nonendogenous plastic particles that accumulate, distribute, and interact with host tissues. This system displays key biological features: persistence (decade-scale tissue retention), organized distribution (organotropism across 63 human biological compartments), and active biological engagement (e.g., cardiovascular, reproductive, and metabolic interference). We identify eight unresolved paradoxes─ranging from size-defying barrier penetration to absent toxicity thresholds─that highlight critical gaps in synthetic particle biology. The plastiphere challenges conventional toxicology by showing that MPs: (1) follow selective biological rules (e.g., vascular trafficking) while violating others (e.g., phagocytic clearance), and (2) form a measurable, transgenerational burden with escalating health risks as plastic production continues to rise. To address this emerging bioparticulate phenomenon, we propose three urgent actions: harmonized detection protocols, polymer-specific safety thresholds, and source-targeted policy interventions. The plastiphere, both as a biological system and a conceptual framework, offers a roadmap for advancing science from descriptive detection to health-relevant, mechanistically grounded, and policy-actionable solutions.","PeriodicalId":36,"journal":{"name":"环境科学与技术","volume":"99 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.028,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145194495","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we demonstrate that Cu5Pd1 alloy nanoparticles, integrated with vertically grown GaN nanowires on an n+-p Si photocathode (Cu5Pd1/GaN/Si), enable highly efficient and selective nitrite reduction to ammonia. This photoelectrode achieves a Faradaic efficiency of 99.7% for NH3, with a yield rate of 162.2 μmol h-1 cm-2 and a nearly 100% selectivity. Additionally, the Cu5Pd1/GaN/Si photoelectrode maintains robust performance in the presence of various anions and can effectively remove ∼98% of nitrite even at low concentrations. Density functional theory calculations, supported by in situ spectroscopic techniques, reveal that Cu-Pd alloying fundamentally alters the nitrite reduction mechanisms. Unlike the *NOH-mediated pathway on Cu and Pd, which can lead to competing N2 formation, the CuPd alloy preferentially stabilizes the *NHO intermediate, making NH3 production thermodynamically preferred and highly selective. These findings highlight that a rational electrocatalyst design can effectively tune reaction pathways to enhance both the efficiency and selectivity of photoelectrocatalytic nitrite upcycling.","PeriodicalId":36,"journal":{"name":"环境科学与技术","volume":"39 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.028,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145194874","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With notable adsorptive and catalytic properties, carbonaceous materials have emerged as a potential group of candidates capable of enhancing the PFAS degradation. Hence, a comprehensive understanding of the roles of carbonaceous materials in PFAS degradation is crucial to paving the way for developing efficient and applicable PFAS degradation technologies. This critical review systematically evaluates the physicochemical properties of carbonaceous materials, reveals their roles in different PFAS degradation technologies, and identifies challenges for real-world application. This study reveals that tailored hydrophobicity, surface functionalization, and porosity in carbonaceous materials significantly improve PFAS adsorption, and the rapid charge transfer and generation of charge carriers enable catalytic activity for PFAS degradation. However, limited material stability during application, interference from complex water matrices, toxicity from material leaching, PFAS degradation intermediates, and chemical additives, along with limited system expandability, remain key challenges. By bridging material science with environmental engineering, this review discusses actionable strategies for developing innovative degradation technologies using carbonaceous materials as well as advancing the technologies toward practical applications.","PeriodicalId":36,"journal":{"name":"环境科学与技术","volume":"7 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.028,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145194870","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we conducted a seven-year multiomics investigation (2017-2023) of microbial diversity, functionality, and evolutionary dynamics in the Futian Mangrove National Nature Reserve, Shenzhen, China. This region has experienced ecological degradation followed by phased restoration efforts since 2007. By analyzing 81 metagenomes, 8474 microbial metagenome-assembled genomes (MAGs) were successfully reconstructed, representing 13 archaeal phyla, 70 bacterial phyla, and up to 95% newly identified species. Community composition was primarily influenced by sediment depth and seasonal variations. Integrating 72 metatranscriptomes revealed marked temporal shifts in gene expression linked to carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur cycling, including enhanced transcription of genes involved in organic carbon oxidation, sulfate reduction, denitrification, and nitrogen fixation during later stages restoration. Evolutionary analyses demonstrated pervasive purifying selection across microbial lineages, with environmental fluctuations and genome size acting as key determinants of selective pressures. Additionally, a new class Candidatus Shennongiarchaeia within Thermoplasmatota was proposed, exhibited anaerobic, facultatively heterotrophic characteristics and bioactive compound synthesis potential. These findings demonstrate that microbial communities in restored mangrove wetlands undergo structural and functional reorganization, characterized by the enrichment of anaerobic lineages, upregulation of key metabolic pathways, and environmentally driven selective pressures. This long-term study deepens our understanding of microbial resilience and adaptation in mangrove ecosystems, with implications for future conservation and restoration strategies in coastal wetlands.","PeriodicalId":36,"journal":{"name":"环境科学与技术","volume":"53 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.028,"publicationDate":"2025-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145203530","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Additional filtration on PLR plates allowed the injection of extracts twice concentrated without affecting LC-HRMS repeatability. The comparison of chemical coverage between SPMs was then assessed using 184 compounds (including a large variety of exogenous chemicals) annotated with a suspect screening strategy. Most chemicals (78-86%) were detected with both SPMs, but a substantial fraction showed preferential (>2-fold, 37-50%) or exclusive (14-22%) detection with one SPM, reflecting differences in matrix effects and/or recoveries. Low-abundance chemicals were more sensitive to the choice of SPM, though no predictive trends related to physicochemical properties emerged, likely due to higher analytical uncertainty. Overall, both SPMs provided acceptable chemical coverage for large-scale exposomics. Nonetheless, the compound-dependent nature of detection highlights the value of applying complementary SPMs when feasible.","PeriodicalId":36,"journal":{"name":"环境科学与技术","volume":"91 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":9.028,"publicationDate":"2025-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"145189402","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"环境科学与生态学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
