The influence of on the growth and mercury content of water spinach grown in mine tailings

The study highlights the limitations of growing food crops in gold mine tailings due to low nitrogen and mercury contamination, emphasizing the effects of nitrogen-fixing Azotobacter biofertilizer on water spinach. Despite increased microbial counts and plant growth parameters, mercury levels in plants remained above safety thresholds, rendering water spinach unsafe for cultivation.

Staff Retreat 2025!

No other place is more suited for our retreat than the Historic Yates Mill County Park!

Yates Mill is the last operable, fully restored, circa 1756 water-powered gristmill in Wake County, and one of the few left in the USA. The Mill was placed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1974.

🌳 Can Thermal Treatment Boost Wood Durability?

This study evaluated thermal effects on Eucalyptus hybrids' resistance to decay fungi. Brown rot fungi was shown to cause more severe damage than white rot fungi, altering wood color.

🔥Heat treatment boosted resistance to decay
🪵 Hybrids A & C show high resistance at 185 °C

Findings could enhance wood use in construction & production.
