Abstract
Hypochlorite (ClO-) and gallium (Ⅲ) ions (Ga3+) have extensive applications in various human industries and daily activities. However, their inherent toxicity poses significant risks to environmental preservation and human well-being. Hence, the development of reliable and handy detection tools for ClO- and Ga3+ in the environment and food is crucial. In this study, a ratiometric fluorescent probe was prepared based on benzothiazolaldehyde and pyridine-2-carboxylic acid hydrazide, which exhibited exceptional performance characteristics for the selective detection of ClO- and Ga3+. These features include high specificity, low detection limits (0.28 μM for ClO-, 0.13 μM for Ga3+), mild pH conditions (pH 4-11 for ClO-, pH 6-11 for Ga3+), fast response time (within 30 s), as well as versatile applicability across different matrices such as water, soil, food, and plant samples. Additionally, this probe can be used with a smartphone color recognition app. The probe offers a convenient and effective tool for the detection of ClO- and Ga3+, demonstrating its potential application value in environmental monitoring and food safety.

Abstract
Gallium metal and gallium compounds play significant roles in industry and medicine; however, their pollution and residue can pose potential risks to plants, animals and human health. Moreover, accurately detecting Ga3+ during tumor treatment holds great clinical significance. Therefore, it is crucial to reliably determine the content of Ga3+ in environmental and biological samples. Organic small-molecule fluorescent probe technology offers high selectivity and sensitivity, rapid detection speed, and non-destructive in situ bioimaging capabilities, making it an ideal approach for Ga3+ detection. The numerous reported probes for detecting Ga3+ highlight the immense application potential of fluorescent probes in this field. However, due to limited development of Ga3+-specific fluorescent probes thus far, several challenges associated with their design and development remain. This paper presents a comprehensive overview of the performance achieved by Ga3+ fluorescent probes, while addressing existing issues and proposing corresponding solutions. Additionally, future directions for developing highly efficient Ga3+ fluorescent probes are outlined as valuable guidance.

Abstract
Gallium oxide has known beneficial osteo-integrative properties. This may have importance for improving the osteointegration of orthopedic implants. At high concentrations gallium is cytotoxic. Therefore, integration of gallium into implant devices must be carefully controlled to limit its concentration and release. A strategy based on surface doping of gallium although challenging seems an appropriate approach to limit dose amounts to minimize cytotoxicity and maximize osteointegration benefits. In this work we develop a novel form of patterned surface doping via a block copolymer-based surface chemistry that enables very low gallium content but enhanced osteointegration as proven by comprehensive bioassays. Polystyrene-b-poly 4vinyl pyridine (PS-b-P4VP) BCP (block copolymer) films were produced on surfaces. Selective infiltration of the BCP pattern with a gallium salt precursor solution and subsequent UV-ozone treatment produced a surface pattern of gallium oxide nanodots as evidenced by atomic force and scanning electron microscopy. A comprehensive study of the bioactivity was carried out, including antimicrobial and sterility testing, gallium ion release kinetics and the interaction with human marrow mesenchymal stomal cells and mononuclear cells. Comparing the data from osteogenesis media assay tests with osteoclastogenesis tests demonstrated the potential for the gallium oxide nanodot doping to improve osteointegration properties of a surface.

Transcriptomic Analysis of Shiga Toxin-Producing Escherichia coli FORC_035 Reveals the Essential Role of Iron Acquisition for Survival in Canola Sprouts and Water Dropwort.

Abstract
Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) is a foodborne pathogen that poses a serious threat to humans. Although EHEC is problematic mainly in food products containing meat, recent studies have revealed that many EHEC-associated foodborne outbreaks were attributable to spoiled produce such as sprouts and green leafy vegetables. To understand how EHEC adapts to the environment in fresh produce, we exposed the EHEC isolate FORC_035 to canola spouts (Brassica napus) and water dropwort (Oenanthe javanica) and profiled the transcriptome of this pathogen at 1 and 3 h after incubation with the plant materials. Transcriptome analysis revealed that the expression of genes associated with iron uptake were down-regulated during adaptation to plant tissues. A mutant strain lacking entB, presumably defective in enterobactin biosynthesis, had growth defects in co-culture with water dropwort, and the defective phenotype was complemented by the addition of ferric ion. Furthermore, gallium treatment to block iron uptake inhibited bacterial growth on water dropwort and also hampered biofilm formation. Taken together, these results indicate that iron uptake is essential for the fitness of EHEC in plants and that gallium can be used to prevent the growth of this pathogen in fresh produce.

Valorization of GaN based metal-organic chemical vapor deposition dust a semiconductor power device industry waste through mechanochemical oxidation and leaching: A sustainable green process. ENVIRONMENTAL RESEARCH 2015; 140:704-713.

Abstract
Dust generated during metal organic vapor deposition (MOCVD) process of GaN based semiconductor power device industry contains significant amounts of gallium and indium. These semiconductor power device industry wastes contain gallium as GaN and Ga0.97N0.9O0.09 is a concern for the environment which can add value through recycling. In the present study, this waste is recycled through mechanochemical oxidation and leaching. For quantitative recovery of gallium, two different mechanochemical oxidation leaching process flow sheets are proposed. In one process, first the Ga0.97N0.9O0.09 of the MOCVD dust is leached at the optimum condition. Subsequently, the leach residue is mechanochemically treated, followed by oxidative annealing and finally re-leached. In the second process, the MOCVD waste dust is mechanochemically treated, followed by oxidative annealing and finally leached. Both of these treatment processes are competitive with each other, appropriate for gallium leaching and treatment of the waste MOCVD dust. Without mechanochemical oxidation, 40.11 and 1.86 w/w% of gallium and Indium are leached using 4M HCl, 100°C and pulp density of 100 kg/m(3,) respectively. After mechanochemical oxidation, both these processes achieved 90 w/w% of gallium and 1.86 w/w% of indium leaching at their optimum condition.

Abstract
It is well established that certain metals are toxic to embryonic and fetal tissues and can induce teratogenicity in mammals. The main objective of this paper has been to summarize the toxic effects that excesses of certain metals may cause on mammalian development. The reviewed elements have been divided into four groups: (a) metals of greatest toxicological significance (arsenic, cadmium, lead, mercury, and uranium) that are wide-spread in the human environment, (b) essential trace metals (chromium, cobalt, manganese, selenium, and zinc), (c) other metals with evident biological interest (nickel and vanadium), and (d) metals of pharmacological interest (aluminum, gallium, and lithium). A summary of the therapeutic use of chelating agents in the prevention of metal-induced developmental toxicity has also been included. meso-2,3-Dimercaptosuccinic acid (DMSA) and sodium 2,3-dimercaptopropane-1-sulfonate (DMPS) have been reported to be effective in alleviating arsenic- and mercury-induced teratogenesis, whereas sodium 4,5-dihydroxybenzene-1,3-disulfonate (Tiron) would protect against vanadium- and uranium-induced developmental toxicity.

Abstract
Reproduction studies were performed with gallium nitrate, an antihypercalcaemic drug that is also used as a chemotherapeutic agent for the treatment of certain malignancies. Male mice were injected subcutaneously with gallium nitrate at doses of 0 (controls), 24, 48 and 96 mg/kg/day every other day for 14 days before mating with untreated females. Fertility and reproductive performance in the gallium nitrate-treated groups did not differ significantly from controls. No significant changes were observed in the relative testes and epididymis weights. Sperm counts in the gallium nitrate-dosed groups were comparable with those in the control group, whereas the percentage of motile cells was similar between treated and untreated animals. Histopathological examination of the testes and epididymis did not reveal any changes at any dose of gallium nitrate. The no-observed-adverse effect level was 96 mg/kg body weight. This dose is about 30 times higher than the current doses of gallium nitrate administered to humans.
