Graphical Abstract:
 The current work represents the results of a monitoring executed on Nistru River waters between October 2003 and September 2005. The water quality was evaluated on the basis of such kinetic indicators as redox state and capacity of inhibition. The obtained results shows that Nistru River water in the segment Naslavcea village – Dubasari barrage are continuously polluted with reducing substances that diminish the H2O2 content, that actually determines the redox state of natural waters and the content of free radicals.

Graphical Abstract:
 The novel bis(μ3-oxo) tetranuclear trichloracetate cluster, [Fe4O2(CCl3COO)8(THF)2(DMF)(H2O)]⋅THF (1), has been synthesised and subsequently characterised by X-ray structure analysis, magnetic measurements and infra red (IR). The structure of cluster is “butterfly” type. The Fe···Fe separation has the value of 2.883(1) - 3.441(7) Å. The coordination number of iron (III) is 6. Magnetic studies reveal the presence of an antiferromagnetic exchange in the parallelogram skeletons of the tetranuclear species. Using the spin Hamiltonian H = -2Jwb(Ŝ1Ŝ2 + Ŝ2Ŝ3 + Ŝ3Ŝ4 + Ŝ4Ŝ1) - 2JbbŜ2Ŝ4v+ gμβ(Ŝ1z + Ŝ2z +Ŝ3z + Ŝ4z)B, the fitting parameters Jbb = - 14.3 cm-1, Jwb = - 32.1 cm-1 , g = 2.07, ρparam. -5 impur. = 4.2 %, ΘCurie-Weiss const. = -0.5 K and R = 6.8·10 were obtained.

Graphical Abstract:
 The complexes of general formula Cu(H2L) (II); [CuLn(L)(NO3)(H2O)n] (where H4L=N,NI-bis[2- hydroxy(3-
carboxynaphtalidene)]ethylenediamine; Ln: Nd, n=6 (III); Eu, n=4 (IV); Gd, n=6 (V) have been synthesized a
nd investigated by different methods (IR spectroscopy, TG analysis and magnetochemistry). The coordination set of complex generators are Cu(N2O2) and Ln(O8-9). The effective magnetic moment values, μeff, at 300 K are: 1.78 (II), 3.22 (III), 6.44 (V) B.M. The temperature dependence (300-2 K) of magnetic susceptibility of [CuNd(L)(NO3)(H2O)6] indicates the antiferromagnetic interaction between metal ions.

Graphical Abstract: 
The paper summarizes the research results on development national emissions factor for the Greenhouse Gas Inventory (GHGI) Source Category “6A Solid Waste Disposal on Land”. The obtained results offer the opportunity to improve the Intergovernmental Panel for Climate Change (IPCC) methodologies and Emission Factors for assessing the GHG emissions originated from waste sector. The article contains relevant information on composition of landfill gases at managed and unmanaged solid waste disposal sites, as well as the municipal solid waste composition results, investigated during one year in the Republic of Moldova: from autumn, 2004 to summer, 2005.

Graphical Abstract: 
The aim of this work is the study made for obtaining iodized oil that would satisfy the requirements in iodine for human body. The sunflower oil is a product with the most important value, thus the production of oil fortified with iodine would be a cheap and accessible option. These studies indicate that lipids present an important vehicle for the fortification with iodine. Eradication of the iodine deficiency may be realized not only by injection of the iodinated oil, but also by its use as an ingredient for the formulation of different food compositions. This method, complementary with the iodinated salt, would allow the increase of the efficiency of the prophylactic undertaken measures, because is based on the use of vegetal material – sunflower oil; it is cost-efficient and does not require substantial investments.
