Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordIntegrated Monitoring of Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals: Analytical Chemistry and Biological Assessment ApproachesChangjin Li, Jing Huo, Zijun Dou et al.Endocrine-Disrupting Chemicals (EDCs) in aquatic environments pose significant threats to ecosystems and human health. These compounds interfere with hormonal regulation at low concentrations and have non-monotonic dose-response relationships, posing challenges to conventional risk assessment. This review systematically compares current EDC monitoring methods, including instrumental chemical analysis and receptor-based biological detection systems, to evaluate sensitivity thresholds, sample throughput, and mechanistic selectivity … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 3 Jul 2026 · 1,081 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordInfluence of Cement Chemistry on the Performance of Cement Stabilized Tropical Lateritic SoilOdumade Adegboyega Oduniyi, Ezeah Chukwunonye, Charles Nnamdi Ezugwu, Ekeoma EmmanuelChemical composition affects overall performance of cement on other materials such as when used in concrete or for stabilization of lateritic soil. This research studied the influence of chemical composition of three Portland cement types represented as samples A, B and C on engineering performance when mixed with laterite under tropical environmental conditions.The Lateritic soil sample classified according to AASHTO … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 21 May 2018 · 8,804 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordUsing Culture, Policy and Traditional Knowledge to Improve Engagement in Science CoursesLawrence K. Duffy, Catherine Hurt Middlecamp, Anna Godduhn, Cindy E. FabbriProblem statement: In our undergraduate science courses, we need to engage students by including the current issues and concerns of our students as well as recognizing the place-based context in which they learn. Including culture, policy and traditional knowledge when it intersects with a chemical principle and a challenging real world issue adds concreteness to the scientific process. Approach: Science … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,183 accessesView PDF Cite
