Influence of Fe₂O₃ and bacterial biofilms on Cu(II) distribution in a simulated aqueous solution: a feasibility study to sediments in the Pearl River Estuary (PR China) by Kurniawan, Tonni Agustiono, Lo, Waihung, Othman, Mohd Hafiz Dzarfan, Liang, Xue, Goh, Hui Hwang, Chew, Kit Wayne

“…It was found that biofilms with 170-285 mequiv chemical oxygen demand (COD) concentration/m2 of total oxidizable materials accelerated the Cu(II) adsorption to the surface of the reactor significantly by a factor of five. A significant inhibition to the bacterial growth took place (p ≤ 0.05; t-test) when Cu(II) concentration was higher than 0.5 mg/L. …”

Pilot study of a ketogenic diet in bipolar disorder: a process evaluation by P. Rigby, B, Needham, N, Grossi, H, Kamenska, I, H.

Thrippleton, M, Campbell, H, J. Smith, D, A. Simpson, S

“…Reporting was guided by the COREQ checklist. Results: Five themes were identified in the qualitative data: (1) ‘Encouraging entry and supporting exit’ (e.g. recognising and managing participants’ varied motives and expectations, including around weight loss and symptom alleviation); (2) ‘Challenging but potentially transformational,’ which reflects that while it can be difficult to initiate and maintain a ketogenic diet day-to-day, many participants perceived physical and psychological benefits (e.g. significant weight loss, mood stability and enhanced ability to focus); (3) ‘Intervention facilitators,’ including a range of behavioural (e.g. goal setting), social (e.g. family and dietitians) and technological (e.g. apps for monitoring) support mechanisms; (4) ‘Intervention barriers’ (e.g. dietary preferences, concerns about the diet and its impact, the testing burden and capacity of the delivery team); and (5) ‘The wider context’ (e.g. the cost of living and sociocultural expectations) was a crucial factor explaining differential experiences. …”
