Heavy metal contamination from transportation can damage soil and vegetation by increasing oxidative stress, disrupting enzymes, and impairing photosynthesis. This study investigated whether chondroitin sulfate (CS) could reduce the harmful effects of contaminated roadside soil on plant growth by binding with metal ions.

This study examined whether eye color affects photophobia and vision in elementary school students and staff, finding no significant relationship between eye color, light sensitivity, or visual acuity. However, photophobia was common across age groups, highlighting the need for greater awareness of light sensitivity in learning environments.

The authors looked at how the focus of someone's attention impacted what information was retained in their working memory.
Read More...Impact of contamination variability on convolutional neural network accuracy in recycling classification
The authors looked at the ability of a convolutional neural network (CNN) to sort contaminated recycling, with varying levels of contamination. They found as contamination levels increased, the CNN faced more difficulty correctly classifying items.
