Smits,Francois Rineau,Björn Canbäck,Dimitrios Floudas,Dimitrios Floudas,Robert Carleer,Gerald Lackner,Jana Braesel,Dirk Hoffmeister,Bernard Henrissat,Bernard Henrissat,Dag Ahrén,Tomas Johansson,David S. Hibbett,Francis Martin,Per Persson,Anders Tunlid +20 more
TL;DR: It is proposed that the ancestral decay mechanisms used primarily to obtain carbon have been adapted in symbiosis to scavenge nutrients instead.
Journal ArticleDOI
House dust as possible route of environmental exposure to cadmium and lead in the adult general population
Janneke G. F. Hogervorst,Michelle Plusquin,Jaco Vangronsveld,Tim S. Nawrot,Ann Cuypers,Etienne Van Hecke,Harry Roels,Robert Carleer,Jan A. Staessen +8 more
TL;DR: In the adult population, house dust is potentially an important route of exposure to heavy metals in areas with contaminated soils, and should be incorporated in the assessment of health risks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Study of bio-oils and solids from flash pyrolysis of sewage sludges
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors evaluate the production of pyrolysis oil from three types of sewage sludges, and the results show that pyrolysic bio-oils of the studied sludge dominantly contained fatty acids and nitrogenous compounds with potential added value.
Journal ArticleDOI
Study of the pyrolysis of municipal solid waste for the production of valuable products
TL;DR: In this article, the potential of thermal conversion (pyrolysis) of municipal solid waste (MSW), a thermogravimetric study (TGA) is performed in a stream of nitrogen.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: Azo-linked polymeric prodrugs of 5-aminosalicylic acid were prepared and evaluated in simulated human intestinal microbial ecosystem and it was demonstrated that for the hydrophobic polymer reduction stops at the hydrazine stage whereas for a hydrophilic analogue reduction with formation of amines occurred.
