    Abstract Metal-organic complexes, especially those of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) with metals such as copper (Cu) and nickel (Ni) (denoted here as Cu-EDTA and Ni-EDTA), are common contaminants in wastewaters from chemical and plating industries. In this study, a multi-electrode (ME) system using a two-chamber reactor and two pairs of electrodes is proposed for simultaneous electrochemical oxidation of a wastewater containing both Cu-EDTA and Ni-EDTA complexes as well as separation and selective recovery of Cu and Ni onto two different cathodes via electrodeposition. Our results demonstrate that the ME system successfully achieved 90% EDTA removal, 99% solid Cu recovery at the Cu recovery cathode and 56% Ni recovery (33.3% on the Ni recovery cathode and 22.6% in the solution) after a four-hour operation. The system further achieved 85.5% Ni recovery after consecutive five cycles of operation for 20 h. While Cu removal was mainly driven by the direct reduction of EDTA-complexed Cu(II) at the cathode, oxidation of EDTA within the Ni-EDTA complex at the anode was a prerequisite for Ni removal. The oxidation of metal-bound EDTA and free EDTA was driven by

    Abstract Packed fixed-bed reactors are traditionally used for heterogeneous catalytic ozonation. However, a high solid-to-liquid requirement, poor ozone dissolution, ineffective utilization of catalyst surface area, and production of large amounts of catalyst waste impede application of such reactors. In this study, we designed a suspension catalytic ozonation reactor and compared the performance of this reactor with that of a traditional fixed-bed catalytic ozonation reactor employing oxalic acid (OA) as the target contaminant. Our results showed that total O

    Abstract Background: Oral Lichen Planus (OLP) is a chronic autoimmune mucocutaneous condition, the exact etiology of which is still unknown. It is known to occur chiefly in adults and has a reported prevalence of 0.5-2% in general population and < 2-3% of total in pediatric population. OLP is considered as Oral Potentially Malignant Disorder with a malignant transformation rate of 1-2% in adults. Its occurrence in children is a rare finding with few cases reported in the literature. As a result, it gets misdiagnosed by the general practitioner and hence, there is a need to consider OLP in differential diagnosis of white lesions of oral cavity even in children. Therefore, in this paper, we present six cases of childhood OLP along with their management and follow-up.
    Case series: We present here six patients aged between 11 and 13 years who presented either as incidental finding or as symptomatic lesions and were diagnosed with OLP. Symptomatic patients were treated with topical steroid ointment and both the symptomatic and asymptomatic patients were followed-up. We have also presented literature review of childhood OLP reported in PubMed, Medline and google scholar from 1980 till December 2020.
    Conclusion: OLP is unusual in children and is often left untreated due to low awareness among the patients. Can be often misdiagnosed and should be considered in differential diagnosis of any white lesion of oral cavity. Any such lesions must be correctly diagnosed in time to institute appropriate management and follow-up.

    Abstract Social development organizations increasingly employ artificial intelligence (AI)-enabled tools to help team members collaborate effectively and efficiently. These tools are used in various team management tasks and activities. Based on the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT), this study explores various factors influencing employees' use of AI-enabled tools. The study extends the model in two ways: a) by evaluating the impact of these tools on the employees' collaboration and b) by exploring the moderating role of AI aversion. Data were collected through an online survey of employees working with AI-enabled tools. The analysis of the research model was conducted using partial least squares (PLS), with a two-step model - measurement and structural models of assessment. The results revealed that the antecedent variables, such as effort expectancy, performance expectancy, social influence, and facilitating conditions, are positively associated with using AI-enabled tools, which have a positive relationship with collaboration. It also concluded a significant effect of AI aversion in the relationship between performance expectancy and use of technology. These findings imply that organizations should focus on building an environment to adopt AI-enabled tools while also addressing employees' concerns about AI.

    Abstract We reviewed the tools that have been developed to characterize and communicate seasonal influenza activity in the United States. Here we focus on systematic surveillance and applied analytics, including seasonal burden and disease severity estimation, short-term forecasting, and longer-term modeling efforts. For each set of activities, we describe the challenges and opportunities that have arisen because of the COVID-19 pandemic. In conclusion, we highlight how collaboration and communication have been and will continue to be key components of reliable and actionable influenza monitoring, forecasting, and modeling activities.

    Abstract Dissolved organic matter (DOM) driven-photochemical processes play an important role in the redox cycling of trace metals and attenuation of organic contaminants in estuarine and coastal ecosystems. In this study, we evaluate the effect of Cu on 4-carboxybenzophenone (CBBP) and Suwannee River natural organic matter (SRNOM)-photosensitized degradation of seven target contaminants (TCs) including phenols and amines under pH conditions and salt concentrations typical of those encountered in estuarine and coastal waters. Our results show that trace amounts of Cu(II) (25 -500 nM) induce strong inhibition of the photosensitized degradation of all TCs in solutions containing CBBP. The influence of TCs on the photo-formation of Cu(I) and the decrease in the lifetime of transformation intermediates of contaminants (TC
