Abstract
A novel adsorptive organoclay (Intraplex A®) was developed for the in situ immobilization of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) in the vadose zone. We provide the first evaluation of the effects of Intraplex A® on earthworms and plants in a PFAS-contaminated soil. Ecotoxicological tests were carried out on control soil with and without Intraplex A® (C + I and C, respectively) and PFAS-contaminated soil with and without Intraplex A® (PFAS + I and PFAS, respectively). We investigated the acute ecotoxicological effects of PFAS and Intraplex A® on the growth, reproduction and survival of earthworms (Eisenia fetida) and on plant growth (oat - Avena sativa and turnip - Brassica rapa L. silvestris). Earthworm lethality was 7.6 lower in PFAS + I than in PFAS soil. Earthworms avoided 100% C + I and PFAS + I soils, and reduced earthworms' reproduction was observed in both these soils. For both plant species, the PFAS + I soil yielded less fresh and dry shoot biomass than the PFAS soil, while root growth remained unaffected (all tests: p < 0.05). Soils with Intraplex A® had some negative effects on plants and earthworms, which must be balanced with its benefits as an in situ PFAS adsorbent.

Abstract
Heavy metals such as zinc cannot be degraded by microorganisms and form long contaminant plumes in groundwater. Conventional methods for remediating heavy metal-contaminated sites are for example excavation and pump-and-treat, which is expensive and requires very long operation times. This induced interest in new technologies such as in situ adsorption barriers for immobilization of heavy metal contamination. In this study, we present steps and criteria from laboratory tests to field studies, which are necessary for a successful implementation of an in situ adsorption barrier for immobilizing zinc. Groundwater and sediment samples from a contaminated site were brought to the lab, where the adsorption of zinc to Goethite nanoparticles was studied in batch and in flow-through systems mimicking field conditions. The Goethite nanoparticles revealed an in situ adsorption capacity of approximately 23 mg Zn per g Goethite. Transport experiments in sediment columns indicated an expected radius of influence of at least 2.8 m for the injection of Goethite nanoparticles. These findings were validated in a pilot-scale field study, where an in situ adsorption barrier of ca. 11 m × 6 m × 4 m was implemented in a zinc-contaminated aquifer. The injected nanoparticles were irreversibly deposited at the desired location within <24 h, and were not dislocated with the groundwater flow. Despite a constantly increasing inflow of zinc to the barrier and the short contact time between Goethite and zinc in the barrier, the dissolved zinc was effectively immobilized for ca. 90 days. Then, the zinc concentrations increased slowly downstream of the barrier, but the barrier still retained most of the zinc from the inflowing groundwater. The study demonstrated the applicability of Goethite nanoparticles to immobilize heavy metals in situ and highlights the criteria for upscaling laboratory-based determinants to field-scale.

Abstract
Engineered humic acid-coated goethite (HA-Goe) colloids find increasing application in in situ remediation of metal(loid)-polluted groundwater. Once introduced into the subsurface, the colloids interact with groundwater altering their physicochemical properties. In comparison to freshly synthesized, unreacted HA-Goe colloids, such alterations could reduce the adsorption affinity towards metal(loid)s and also result in altered ecotoxicological effects. In our study, HA-Goe colloids were exposed to two groundwaters (low vs. high concentrations of metal(loid)s) from two metal(loid)-contaminated sites for 87 days. We investigated (i) the course of HA-Goe ecotoxicity (Daphnia magna immobilization tests), (ii) HA-Goe adsorption properties (multi-element solutions containing As, Cu, Zn, Ni and Co), and (iii) changes in the chemical composition as well as in the mineral and aggregate properties of HA-Goe. The adsorption affinity of HA-Goe decreased in the order As ≈ Cu ≫ Zn > Ni ≈ Co. The metal(loid) adsorption occurred rapidly after mixing prior to the first sampling, while the duration of ongoing exposition to groundwater had no effect on the adsorption of these metal(loid)s. We neither observed a desorption of humic acids from the goethite surface nor alterations in the mineralogy, crystallinity, and surface properties of HA-Goe. Standardized Daphnia magna immobilization tests showed an increased number of mobile organisms with increasing exposure time of HA-Goe to both groundwaters. The decrease in HA-Goe-mediated immobilization of D. magna was strongest within the first 30 d. We attribute this to a shift to smaller sizes due to the breakdown of large HA-Goe aggregates, particularly within the first 30 d. The breakdown of these μm-sized aggregates may result mainly from the repeated shaking of the HA-Goe suspensions. Our study confirms within this particular setting that the tested HA-Goe colloids are suitable for the long-term immobilization of metal(loid)s, while lethal effects on D. magna were negligible.

Abstract
Microbial reduction of Fe(III) minerals is a prominent process in redoximorphic soils and is strongly affected by organic matter (OM). We herein determined the rate and extent of microbial reduction of ferrihydrite (Fh) with either adsorbed or coprecipitated OM by Geobacter sulfurreducens. We focused on OM-mediated effects on electron uptake and alterations in Fh crystallinity. The OM was obtained from anoxic soil columns (effluent OM, efOM) and included-unlike water-extractable OM-compounds released by microbial activity under anoxic conditions. We found that organic molecules in efOM had generally no or only very low electron-accepting capacity and were incorporated into the Fh aggregates when coprecipitated with Fh. Compared to OM-free Fh, adsorption of efOM to Fh decelerated the microbial Fe(III) reduction by passivating the Fh surface toward electron uptake. In contrast, coprecipitation of Fh with efOM accelerated the microbial reduction, likely because efOM disrupted the Fh structure, as noted by Mössbauer spectroscopy. Additionally, the adsorbed and coprecipitated efOM resulted in a more sustained Fe(III) reduction, potentially because efOM could have effectively scavenged biogenic Fe(II) and prevented the passivation of the Fh surface by the adsorbed Fe(II). Fe(III)-OM coprecipitates forming at anoxic-oxic interfaces are thus likely readily reducible by Fe(III)-reducing bacteria in redoximorphic soils.

Abstract
Remediation of heavy metal-contaminated aquifers is a challenging process because they cannot be degraded by microorganisms. Together with the usually limited effectiveness of technologies applied today for treatment of heavy metal contaminated groundwater, this creates a need for new remediation technologies. We therefore developed a new treatment, in which permeable adsorption barriers are established in situ in aquifers by the injection of colloidal iron oxides. These adsorption barriers aim at the immobilization of heavy metals in aquifers groundwater, which was assessed in a large-scale field study in a brownfield site. Colloidal iron oxide (goethite) nanoparticles were used to install an in situ adsorption barrier in a very heterogeneous, contaminated aquifer of a brownfield in Asturias, Spain. The groundwater contained high concentrations of heavy metals with up to 25 mg/L zinc, 1.3 mg/L lead, 40 mg/L copper, 0.1 mg/L nickel and other minor heavy metal pollutants below 1 mg/L. High amounts of zinc (>900 mg/kg), lead (>2000 mg/kg), nickel (>190 mg/kg) were also present in the sediment. Ca. 1500 kg of goethite nanoparticles of 461 ± 266 nm diameter were injected at low pressure (< 0.6 bar) into the aquifer through nine screened injection wells. For each injection well, a radius of influence of at least 2.5 m was achieved within 8 h, creating an in situ barrier of 22 × 3 × 9 m. Despite the extremely high heavy metal contamination and the strong heterogeneity of the aquifer, successful immobilization of contaminants was observed in the tested area. The contaminant concentrations were strongly reduced immediately after the injection and the abatement of the heavy metals continued for a total post-injection monitoring period of 189 days. The iron oxide particles were found to adsorb heavy metals even at pH-values between 4 and 6, where low adsorption would have been expected. The study demonstrated the applicability of iron oxide nanoparticles for installing adsorption barriers for containment of heavy metals in contaminated groundwater under real conditions.

Abstract
Doxorubicin (DOX) is one of the most commonly used drugs for the treatment of childhood cancers, including leukemia and lymphomas. Despite the high survival rate, female leukemia survivors are at higher risk of ovarian failure and infertility later in life. Treatment with chemotherapeutic drugs like DOX is associated with damage in ovarian follicles, but the affectation grade of granulosa cells remains unclear. To assess and avoid the possible side-effects of DOX, early biomarkers of ovarian injury and chemotherapy-induced ovarian toxicity should be identified. MicroRNAs (miRNAs) have emerged in recent years as a promising new class of biomarkers for drug-induced tissue toxicity. In this study, the effects of DOX on cell viability, steroidogenesis, and miRNA expression were studied in primary granulosa cells (GCs) and in two cellular models (COV434 and KGN cells). We report that compared to other chemotherapeutic drugs, DOX treatment is more detrimental to granulosa cells as observed by decrease of cell viability. Treatment with DOX changes the expression of the aromatase gene (CYP19A1) and the secretion of 17β-estradiol (E2) in a cell-specific manner. miR-132-3p is dose-dependently increased by DOX in all cellular models. In absence of DOX, miR-132-3p overexpression in COV434 cells has no effect on E2 secretion or CYP19A1 expression. Altogether, these findings contribute to understanding the hormonal disbalance caused by DOX in human ovarian cells and suggest miR-132 as a putative sensor to predict DOX-induced ovarian toxicity.

Abstract
The proteomic analysis of complex body fluids by liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis requires the selection of suitable sample preparation techniques and optimal parameter settings in data analysis software packages to obtain reliable results. Proteomic analysis of follicular fluid, as a representative of a complex body fluid similar to serum or plasma, is difficult as it contains a vast amount of high abundant proteins and a variety of proteins with different concentrations. However, the accessibility of this complex body fluid for LC-MS/MS analysis is an opportunity to gain insights into the status, the composition of fertility-relevant proteins including immunological factors or for the discovery of new diagnostic and prognostic markers for, for example, the treatment of infertility. In this study, we compared different sample preparation methods (FASP, eFASP and in-solution digestion) and three different data analysis software packages (Proteome Discoverer with SEQUEST, Mascot and MaxQuant with Andromeda) combined with semi- and full-tryptic databank search options to obtain a maximum coverage of the follicular fluid proteome. We found that the most comprehensive proteome coverage is achieved by the eFASP sample preparation method using SDS in the initial denaturing step and the SEQUEST-based semi-tryptic data analysis. In conclusion, we have developed a fractionation-free methodical workflow for in depth LC-MS/MS-based analysis for the standardized investigation of human follicle fluid as an important representative of a complex body fluid. Taken together, we were able to identify a total of 1392 proteins in follicular fluid.

Abstract
Synthesized iron oxide nanoparticles have been proposed as an alternative to non-dispersed iron oxides for in situ environmental remediation. Their colloidal properties enable their injection into porous media, i.e. soils and aquifers, and offer a higher efficiency in removing contaminants. However, this dispersed state is also the cause of concerns over their environmental fate and toxicity, e.g., by increasing the exposure time to aquatic organisms in groundwater remediation activities. Therefore, the objective of in situ groundwater remediation is to establish local reactive barriers in the subsurface by injection by means of reactive colloids with a controllable mobility under in situ conditions and present as colloids as shortly as possible. In this work, we examined the toxicity of humic acid-coated colloidal goethite nanoparticles in Daphnia magna. The adaptation of the ecotoxicological standard tests for nanomaterials is intensely discussed to increase comparability and reliability of results. In the present study, the effect of different exposure conditions on goethite nanoparticles colloidal behaviour and acute Daphnia immobilization effects was investigated. For this purpose, iron concentration in the water column, aggregation state and acute effects were studied in: i) a standard test, ii) test design with exposure dispersions incubated for a week and iii) water accommodated fraction. Despite the different aggregation and settling of the particles found between the approaches tested, no differences in toxicity were observed. Coated nanoparticles were found clogging up the filtering apparatus, and/or adhered to the exoskeleton, hindering the swimming and molting, and causing the immobilization and death of the organisms at doses of ≥943mg/L (EC50). The data suggests that the toxic potential of these nanoparticles is mainly related to the physical interaction with the daphnids.

Abstract
Colloidal forms of Fe(III) minerals can be stabilized in solution by coatings of organic or poly-phosphate (P), which reduce the zeta-potential. This opens up a route toward the development of nanoforms of P fertilizers. However, it is unclear if such P forms are bioavailable. To address this question, spinach (Spinacia oleracea) was grown in nutrient solutions, at equal total P, using three different forms of P (orthophosphate = Pi; hexametaphosphate = HMP; myo-inositol hexaphosphate = IHP), free or bound to goethite/ferrihydrite colloids. After 10 days, P uptake was determined with a dose-response curve using colloid-free Pi as a reference treatment. The Pi concentration generating equal P uptake as in colloidal P treatments was used to calculate the relative bioavailability of colloidal P (RBAcolloid). The RBAcolloid was about 60% for Pi-loaded goethite, stabilized with natural organic matter. For HMP/IHP-Pi-loaded colloids, RBAcolloid ranged between 10 and 50%, in line with their higher sorption strength. In conclusion, colloidal organic P or poly-P can stabilize Fe(III) colloids in solution and can contribute to plant-available P. Soil experiments are required to assess their potential as nanofertilizers.

Abstract
Colloidal iron oxides (FeOx) are increasingly released to the environment due to their use in environmental remediation and biomedical applications, potentially harming living organisms. Size and composition could affect the bioavailability and toxicity of such colloids. Therefore, we investigated the toxicity of selected FeOx with variable aggregate size and variably composed FeOx-associated organic matter (OM) toward the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans. Ferrihydrite colloids containing citrate were taken up by C. elegans with the food and accumulated inside their body. The toxicity of ferrihydrite, goethite, and akaganeite was dependent on aggregate size and specific surface area, with EC50 values for reproduction ranging from 4 to 29 mg Fe L(-1). Experiments with mutant strains lacking mitochondrial superoxide dismutase (sod-2) showed oxidative stress for two FeOx and Fe(3+)-ions, however, revealed that it was not the predominant mechanism of toxicity. The OM composition determined the toxicity of mixed OM-FeOx phases on C. elegans. FeOx associated with humic acids or citrate were less toxic than OM-free FeOx. In contrast, soil-derived ferrihydrite, containing proteins and polysaccharides from mobile OM, was even more toxic than OM-free Fh of similar aggregate size. Consequently, the careful choice of the type of FeOx and the type of associated OM may help in reducing the ecological risks if actively applied to the subsurface.

Abstract
Arsenic mobility may increase in liquid phase due to association with colloidal Fe oxides. We studied the association of As with Fe oxide colloids in the effluent from water-saturated soil columns run under anoxic conditions. Upon exfiltration, the solutions, which contained Fe2+, were re-aerated and ferrihydrite colloids precipitated. The entire amount of effluent As was associated with the ferrihydrite colloids, although PO4(3-), SiO4(4-), CO3(2-) and dissolved organic matter were present in the effluent during ferrihydrite colloid formation. Furthermore, no subsequent release of As from the ferrihydrite colloids was observed despite the presence of these (in)organic species known to compete with As for adsorption on Fe oxides. Arsenic was bound via inner-sphere complexation on the ferrihydrite surface. FTIR spectroscopy also revealed adsorption of PO4(3-) and polymerized silica. However, these species could not impede the quantitative association of As with colloidal ferrihydrite in the soil effluents.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Previous studies have demonstrated a specific cognitive bias for sad stimuli in currently depressed patients; little is known, however, about whether this bias persists after recovery from the depressive episode. Depression is frequently observed in patients with asthma and is associated with a worse course of the disease. Given these high rates of co-morbidity, we could expect to observe a similar bias towards sad stimuli in patients with asthma. METHOD We therefore examined cognitive biases in memory and attention in 20 currently and 20 formerly depressed participants, 20 never-depressed patients diagnosed with asthma, and 20 healthy control participants. All participants completed three cognitive tasks: the self-referential encoding and incidental recall task, the emotion face dot-probe task and the emotional Stroop task. RESULTS Compared with healthy participants, currently and formerly depressed participants, but not patients with asthma, exhibited specific biases for sad stimuli. CONCLUSIONS These results suggest that cognitive biases are evident in depression even after recovery from an acute episode but are not found in never-depressed patients with asthma.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Implantable cardioverter/defibrillators (ICDs) can detect ventricular fibrillation (VF) and terminate it. For determining the optimal defibrillation threshold, ventricular fibrillation is repetitively induced and terminated with DC shocks. Depending on the protocol, several fibrillation/defibrillation sequences are mandatory before the final implantation of an ICD. This procedure provides an elegant human model of circulatory arrest and resuscitation. PATIENTS AND METHODS In anesthetized 73 patients (15 females) of on the average 60+/-11 years, the end-expiratory pressure was set to zero. Left ventricular pressure (LVP) was monitored with a microtip-catheter, central venous pressure (CVP) through a cannula which was advanced into the superior V. cava. ECG was recorded. After testing, a monoexponential function was found to best fit the time courses of LVP, CVP and heart rate. Data are mean+/-S.D. RESULTS After termination of circulatory arrest, peak LVP increased with a time constant tau of 9.2+/-4.2 beats, CVP decreased with tau=2.8+/-1.5 beats, and RR-intervals decreased with tau=4.3+/-3.5 beats. Correlations between prefibrillatory values and steady-state values after termination of fibrillation were high: peak LVP: r=0.78; CVP: r=0.95; RRI: r=0.82. SUMMARY After DC termination of VF, the heart 'finds' relatively quickly a steady-state rhythm at the prefibrillatory level (22 beats), thereby normalizing CVP almost in parallel (14 beats). Peak LVP plateaus only after about 40 beats, although reasonable arterial pressures are reached within the first beats. Our data are limited to periods of ventricular fibrillation of no longer than 60s, which limits the generalisability to the setting of clinical cardiac arrest.

Abstract
The Lower Saxony statutory medical service of the building trade, the building trade association in Hanover and the statutory health insurance body of Lower Saxony have co-operated in the "ArGO" model project. The objective was to focus on the main areas of work-dependent health hazards and disorders. The SF-36 questionnaire was employed to ascertain how far the results obtained concerning health-related quality of life were suitable for this purpose. Hence, the data from industrial medical check-ups were compared with the additional findings for 4,334 building trade workers. Additional unfitness for work and medication data were available from the health insurance schemes for about one half of the group. The analyses revealed clear relationships between the subjectively experienced disorders on the one hand, and the stress and illness data on the other. In addition to age and the conventional stresses, e. g. strenuous physical work, the influence of psychosocial stress was also reflected in the assessment of the quality of life. The results obtained confirm the value of the SF-36 questionnaire for preventive medicine at an industrial level. It is suitable for identifying focal points of stress and can be employed for assessing preventative measures.

Abstract
AIM The aim of this in vivo study was to compare the radiographic quality of root fillings performed by the NIT-obturation method versus conventional mechanical obturation. METHODOLOGY Sixty-six patients needing root canal treatment participated in this study. The treatments were performed by three private practitioners. The root canals were instrumented with K-Flexofiles to a master apical file between sizes 25 and 60, followed by step-back flaring up to size 70. Copious irrigation was used throughout the instrumentation procedure with NaOCl (3%). The teeth were obturated either by lateral condensation, the McSpadden technique (control) or by the new non-instrumentation technology (NIT) with and without using gutta-percha points. In the NIT method, a low pressure was created within the tooth, and AH 26 sealer was sucked into the root canal system. Radiographs of the root-filled teeth were analysed and the length of the root filling, the presence of voids and the area of any other fillings determined. RESULTS The root canal fillings of the control group (0.1 +/- 0.1 mm) and those of the NIT/gutta-percha group (0.3 +/- 0.1 mm) were both overextended when taking the apical constriction as a reference point. Root canal fillings of the NIT/gutta-percha group were statistically (P < 0.05) significantly longer than those of the NIT without gutta-percha group. The latter showed slightly underextended root canal fillings (-0.14 +/- 0.1 mm). CONCLUSIONS The present investigation demonstrated the performance of the NIT-obturation method in vivo. Root canals filled by the reduced-pressure-method using sealer combined with gutta-percha cones exhibited equivalent radiographic quality compared to conventionally filled canals.

Abstract
Laminin is a noncollagenous component of the extracellular matrix in the alveolar wall and may play a role in the development of fibrotic lung disease. Serum levels of laminin fragment P1 as well as procollagen III peptide were determined in 28 patients with pulmonary sarcoidosis and 10 healthy controls using specific radioimmunoassays. The patients' results were compared with the clinical appearance, lung function values (vital capacity, total lung capacity, FEV1, transfer coefficient (KCO), and alveolar-arterial oxygen difference during exercise) and serum concentrations of angiotensin converting enzyme and soluble interleukin 2 receptor. Laminin levels in patients were significantly higher than in controls but always remained within normal limits. Although there was a tendency towards higher values in patients with active disease and with radiographic involvement, no significant correlation was found between laminin concentration and clinical, functional or biochemical data. In contrast, procollagen III N-terminal peptide concentrations were elevated in 19 of 28 patients and showed a weak but significant inverse correlation with parameters of restriction with significantly higher values in patients with active disease. In conclusion, serum levels of laminin fragment P1 are not elevated in pulmonary sarcoidosis and do not correlate with other parameters of the disease. Yet serum levels of procollagen III N-terminal peptide were associated with the degree of parenchymal involvement as expressed by functional disturbance and with active disease.

Abstract
While the development of chemotherapeutic agents has lead to progress in the treatment of small-cell carcinomas of the lung, the number of local recurrences still remains high. Surgery in tumors stage I and II followed by postoperative chemotherapy is the treatment of choice and has been accepted worldwide. In tumors stage IIIa, especially in T1-3 N2 we obtained good results in the projected 3-year survival using a multimodality therapeutic regime consisting of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (3 cycles preoperative) and surgery as well as postoperative chemotherapy and irradiation of the mediastinum. Projected 3-year survival was 67% in stage I tumors, 42% in stage II and with our multimodality therapeutic regime 38% in stage III a tumors.

Abstract
The effect of isovolemic hemodilution on red blood cell flow distribution was studied in complete self-contained microvessel networks of the rat mesentery. Hematocrit, diameter, and length of all vessel segments as well as the topological structure were determined in control networks (systemic hematocrit, 0.54) and after hemodilution (systemic hematocrit, 0.30). Hemodilution was performed by exchanging blood with hydroxyethyl starch (MW 450,000; 6%) or homologous plasma. With hemodilution, the decrease of microvessel hematocrit exceeded that of systemic hematocrit. The average discharge hematocrit in capillaries was 79% of systemic hematocrit in the control group and 73% with hemodilution (p less than 0.001). The heterogeneity of capillary hematocrit within the network, expressed by the coefficient of variation, increased from 0.4 to 0.7. By using the morphological and topological data of four networks, the distribution of hematocrits was also calculated using a hydrodynamic flow model. The modeling results were found to be in close agreement with the experimental data. This indicates that the observed changes can be deduced from established rheological phenomena, most of all phase separation at arteriolar bifurcations. The changes in hematocrit distribution after hemodilution are accompanied by a redistribution of red blood cell flow within the network: relative to total red blood cell flow, red blood cell flow in the distal capillaries of the network increases by about 40% at the expense of the proximal capillaries that are close to the feeding arteriole and that exhibit the highest red blood cell flow under control conditions.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
