Trace element bioaccumulation in the freshwater mussel Unio elongatulus after long-term transplantation: implications for biomonitoring and nature-based remediation

Irene Geneselli, Simone Savi, Sheila Rinaldi, Maria Urbańska et autres

Freshwater mussels are widely used as bioindicators of aquatic contamination due to their high filtration capacity and ability to accumulate trace elements. However, their potential role in contaminant sequestration and environmental remediation remains poorly explored under natural exposure conditions. In this study, …

Metabolomic Insights into Apple Responses to Sepiolite-Based Active Packaging and Modified Atmosphere Storage for Shelf-Life Extension

Alejandro Castro‐Cegrí, Maria Chiara Fontanella, Pier Paolo Becchi, Chiara Mussio et autres

Abstract The development of innovative and sustainable postharvest strategies to preserve fruit quality is a major challenge in the fresh produce chain. In this study, we evaluated a chitosan–cassava starch film enriched with sepiolite, used as an active packaging, alone and combined …

Effect of Non-Microbial Biostimulants on Metabolome, Quality Traits, and Shelf-Life of Lettuce Under Field Conditions

Alejandro Castro‐Cegrí, Maria Chiara Fontanella, Giulia Fappani, Manuela Delpero et autres

Abstract Plant-based biostimulants are sustainable tools widely applied in agriculture to enhance plant physiology and stress resilience. Shelf-life extension has a pivotal role in postharvest as low-temperature storage of lettuce ( Lactuca sativa L.) often results in weight loss, surface damage, and …

Occupational exposure to antimony from cement additives: Speciation and health risk insights

Maria Chiara Fontanella, Elena Serena, Davide Guarascio, Gian Maria Beone

Antimony (Sb) is an emerging environmental contaminant of concern due to its persistence, bioaccumulation potential, and toxicity. Its trivalent form [Sb(III)] is of particular relevance, as it is classified as a suspected human carcinogen. In the cement industry, Sb-based additives are increasingly …

Aerial Spray Application of Plant Protection Products for Grapevine Downy Mildew Control: Efficacy and Canopy Deposit Evaluation in Semi-Field Trials

Margherita Furiosi, Sara Triachini, Gian Maria Beone, Maria Chiara Fontanella et autres

A growing interest in aerial drone applications has led to the European regulatory proposal 2022/0196/COD, which considers aerial spraying in steep-slope vineyards safer for human health and the environment. Nevertheless, disease control in perennial crops by aerial applications remains under-investigated. This study …

An Experimental Assessment of Soil Contamination by Composite Solid Rocket Propellants

Filippo Maggi, Stefania Carlotti, Alessandro Domenico Corcione, A Verga et autres

Since the beginning of the space era, solid propulsion has been considered an important technological asset for heavy launchers. Compositions based on ammonium perchlorate represent the current state of the art. The combustion of this class of propellant releases chlorine-based products, though. …

Specialty and high‐quality coffee: discrimination through elemental characterization via ICP ‐ OES , ICP ‐ MS , and ICP ‐ MS/MS of origin, species, and variety

Fosca Vezzulli, Maria Chiara Fontanella, Milena Lambri, Gian Maria Beone

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to establish the elemental profiling and origin combined with the genetic asset of coffee samples collected from major coffee-producing countries. A total of 76 samples were analysed for 41 elements using inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectroscopy (ICP-OES), inductively …
