This paper discusses the study of the shapes and sizes of polymer droplets formed during the phase separation of their solutions with increasing temperature, as well as the parameters of the transitional layers of polymer condensing on the droplet surface formed during this process. For the study, a copolymer of polyethylene oxide and polypropylene oxide was chosen, whose behavior in aqueous solutions and the change in hydrophilic-hydrophobic balance depends on temperature. It has been established that the application of the method of digital image processing allows the introduction of the quantitative criterion – image intensity of a photo. For a more detailed study of the behavior of polymer molecules at the phase boundary, depending on the temperature, the studies of the temperature-dependent behavior of a number of polymers of different composition and structure have been carried out. The use of the digital image processing method for polymer droplets makes it possible to determine the parameters of droplets and their transition layers, to determine the dynamics of nucleation and droplet growth and density changes in the transition layer by the image intensity parameter. The paper has found out that embryos of pluronic are unevenly distributed by volume of solution with the presence of zones with a maximum number of molecules and a zone with a minimum of assembly of molecules. The practical value of the work is in the fact that the results of the study can be used to assess the dynamics of the separation of polymer solutions without involving the time-consuming and expensive instrumental methods of physical and chemical analysis.

This study aimed to summarize the occurrence of aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) in the various cultivars of the Persian pistachio nut and the decontamination techniques, with the aid of a systematic review and meta-analysis. In this regard, all published studies up to November 2019 among international and national databases were screened, resulting in 23 articles. According to the findings, the main aflatoxin identified in the pistachio nut was AFB1, with AFB1 concentrations in ~28% of the studies being ? 5 µg/kg, in ~35% of the studies being ? 10 µg/kg, and in ~37% of the studies being ? 10 µg/kg. Generally, in most studies (~72%), AFB1 content in pistachio cultivars was higher than the acceptable level proposed by the Iranian National Standard. Although several physical and chemical techniques for AFB1 reduction have been introduced, most of them are not safe and/or suitable for human consumption.

In the past eight years our research was primarily focused on green nano chemistry, biomimicry, nanomaterials and bio-conjugation/natural compounds. We were specifically using bottom to up approach techniques because it was untoxic. The fabrication and synthesis of nanomaterials via the green path (plant extract, bacteria, fungus) was an ideal strategy as much emphasis was on the biological compatibility and environment friendliness of the nanoparticles. Secondly, more attention was on time frames and financial considerations of other physical and chemical techniques that were expensive and toxic to employ.

Groundwater discharge is associated with salinity and pollution problems. The widespread presence of millions of saline lakes in North America, Africa and Australia, shows that across the geological record, most salinity and desertification problems have been caused by saline groundwater discharge. In recent times, dryland salinity has spread widely in southern Australia, resulting in the loss of more than 50% of the fresh streams in Western Australia and causing major salinity problems in the Murray River in South Australia.
