Molds are frequent indoor contaminants, where they can colonize many materials. The subsequent aerosolization of fungal spores from moldy surfaces strongly impact air quality and the health occupants. investigation contamination habitations is a key point in evaluating sanitary risks understanding relationship that may exist between presence on contamination. However, to date there no "gold standard" sampling for such investigations. Among various methods, impingement be used capturing spores, as it enables real-time preserves analytical follow-up. Its efficiency varies depending several factors, spore hydrophobicity, conditions, etc. Sampling devices also results, with recovery rates sometimes lower than filtration-based methods. Coriolis µ sampler, an impingement-based device, utilizes centrifugal force concentrate airborne particles into liquid medium, offering flexibility molecular analysis. Several studies have this device sampling, demonstrating its application detecting pollen, bacteria, viruses, but most often laboratory conditions. present case study, conducted house, aims investigate DNA analysis environments. results obtained suggest use requires optimized methodology enhance reliability bioaerosol research.

Abstract Patulin, a fungal secondary metabolite with multiple toxicities, is widely existed in variety of fruits and their products. This not only causes significant economic losses to the agricultural food industries but also poses serious threat human health. Conventional techniques mainly involved physical chemical methods present several challenges include incomplete patulin degradation, high technical cost, fruit quality decline. In comparison, removal mycotoxin through biodegradation regarded as greener safer strategy which has become popular research. Among them, yeast unique advantage detoxification effect application, attracted our attention. Therefore, this review provides comprehensive account species that can degrade patulin, degradation mechanism, current application status, future challenges. Yeasts efficiently convert into nontoxic or low‐toxic substances biodegradation. Alternatively, it use adsorption, advantages safety, efficiency, environmental friendliness. Nevertheless, due inherent complexity production environment, sole utilization control agent remains inherently unstable challenging implement on large scale practical manner. Integration control, enhancement resilience, improvement cell wall adsorption capacity, research additional patulin‐degrading enzymes will facilitate approach. Furthermore, we analyzed feasibility commercial reduction provided suggestions how enhance its value, great significance for mycotoxins

Many studies have drawn conflicting conclusions about relationships between labour transfers, monetarily buildup, growth, and living standards in different settings, but only partially so. For this purpose, the capital threshold conduction effects are often used to trace transmission channels for causal links. On other hand, workers' remittances play a key role financial development of economy. No study has specifically focused on worker transfers Pakistan by monitoring main transfer channels. Thus, there is considerable need explore these their expansion. This examines effect expanding conduit The scrutinizes direct impact tracing channel. Second, it influence with through channel GDP growth. Third, unintended growth based extended versions leadership estimate bidirectional data were taken period 1980–2020. Employing ARDL-bound (cointegration) testing, study's results indicate indirect long short-term relationship if we consider Furthermore, confirmed that extension journey contributed significantly. Policymakers can use findings understand better remittances' developing financially sound strategies.

The objective of this study was to understand the maize production chain in Republic Honduras, and identify potential obstacles hindering grain end-quality. Seventy-one municipalities across six departments Western Honduras were surveyed: Copán, Intibucá, La Paz, Lempira, Ocotepeque, Santa Bárbara. A total 871 surveys collected, out which 725 from rural areas 146 urban areas. sampling design reflected population density population-based indicators USAID's Feed Future initiative, such as poverty level prevalence underweight non-pregnant females between ages 15 49. Further, associated with underdevelopment children also considered. Survey instruments designed for either farmers or marketers used collect data including seed source, type planted, intercropping, time harvest, drying storage practices, quality control, consumption patterns. Farmers preferred plant criolla (native) (81–96%), although non-native varieties grown consumed (3–13%). Following sun is most method (14–40%) moisture control. reported spoilage resulting primarily inadequate pest damage (56–82%). Although aware this, up 28% producers not performing preventive inspections course storage. Maize typically sourced their within department (33–71%), a smaller fraction (0–8%) obtaining other neighboring countries. Mirroring farmers, visual checks by occurred at initial (36–69%) decreased frequency lengthened. Given that both studied groups continue rely on traditional corrective rather than measures, likelihood low-quality product risk mycotoxin contamination exacerbated. Based these findings, achieving food security region will require transformation pre- post-harvest handling practices.
