Background: Disruption of tight junctions is associated with various inflammatory diseases, including inflammatory bowel syndrome. Tight junctions form a protective barrier throughout the intestinal tract that is central to health. Glyphosate is known to inhibit tight junction function. The aim of this study was to assess the effect of a soil-derived, lignite extract dietary supplement in prote...

Abundant and cheap lignite is regarded as inferior fuel due to its disadvantages such low heat high moisture. In order realize the value clean, non-fuel utilization of lignite, we used precursor prepare high-quality synthetic graphite through graphitization treatment using temperature–high pressure (HTHP) method, afterwards characterized samples by XRD, Raman, FTIR, SEM-EDS, HRTEM, systematical...

For the Polish power industry, basic fuel is hard coal and lignite, which contains significant amounts of mercury. Current emission standards in European Union (IED directive near future BAT conclusions) create conditions for investment flue gas cleaning installations coal-fired plants. During combustion coal, mainly metallic mercury (Hg 0 ) produced, difficult to remove from dedusting (electro...
