description: The use of mass spectrometry-based proteomics has been increasingly applied in nanomaterials risk assessments as it provides a proteome-wide overview of the molecular disturbances induced by its exposure. Here, we used this technique to gain detailed molecular insights into the role of ROS as an effector of AgNP toxicity, by incubating Bend3 cells with AgNP in the absence or presence of an antioxidant N-acetyl L-cystein (NAC). ROS generation is a key player in AgNP-induced toxicity, as cellular homeostasis was kept in the presence of NAC. By integrating MS/MS data with bioinformatics tools, in the absence of NAC, we were able to pinpoint precisely which biological pathways were affected by AgNP. Cells respond to AgNP-induced ROS generation by increasing their antioxidant pool, via NRF2 pathway activation. Additionally, cell proliferation-related pathways were strongly inhibited in a ROS-dependent manner. These findings reveal important aspects of the AgNP mechanism of action at the protein level.

description: Water management has an important role to play in the circular economy transition, through the water treatment and reuse. Its optimal and coherent regulation is also of vital common interest, since water knows no borders or lines artificially set out by the States and the dramatic overconsumption and pollution of freshwater are threatening irreparable damage to the world's ecosystems. However, States are reluctant to common regulations, which would have important economic impacts. International and regional organizations face with the fundamental principle of permanent sovereignty of States over natural resources. By analysing the European environmental competence, this study examines the role of Union water law in green economic transition. By investigating the interdependent relationships between the several elements of the water management, the essay suggests that territory use and economic town and country planning would be drawn into the scope of Treaties because of the integrated nature of water services. The case of water reuse illustrates limits and perspectives of the European objective to promote rational utilization of natural resources and combat climate change, introducing the idea according to which freshwater is a European res communis on which the sovereign right of European Union Member States over their own natural resources could be lawfully limited.

title: Extremely urgent public procurement under Directive 2014/24/EU and the COVID-19 pandemic

description: The COVID-19 pandemic swept throughout the European Union swiftly and led to significant changes in how we live and operate. Some of those changes occurred in public procurement as well, with Member States struggling to react to the dissemination of the virus. The purpose of this paper is to assess what scope the EU's public procurement legal framework provides to deal with a crisis, and how the rules should be interpreted. This paper will show how the EU public procurement legal framework deals with extreme urgency situations and how it has been intentionally designed to allow Member States flexibility within very clearly defined boundaries. This means that the path to award contracts without competition on the grounds of extreme urgency is narrow due to Article 32(2)(c) of Directive 2014/24/EU 1 and the case law from the CJEU. The narrowness of this path is due to the exceptional nature of procedure and the obligation for the contracting authority to discharge the tight grounds for use in full for every contract. Therefore, this paper concludes that the view exposed by the European Commission on its guidance from April 2020 that the pandemic is a single unforeseeable event amounts to an incorrect reading on how the grounds for the use of Article 32(2)(c) operate. If such interpretation was already too broad in April 2020, it certainly is no longer in line with the transition from an unfolding crisis into a new and more permanent equilibrium. In the context of COVID-19, particularly the need for the crisis to be unforeseeable and the extreme urgency not being attributable to the contracting authority raise significant difficulties for some contracting authorities to discharge the grounds for use of the negotiated procedure without prior notice. This is particularly the case in those situations where governments centralized pandemic-related procurement. As such, the paper concludes that existing substantive rules for extremely urgent procurement are adequate and, albeit sufficient to respond to crisis situations, that does not entail that the wholesale use of the negotiated procedure without prior notice is necessarily legal.

description: Bis heute wird Otto von Gierke im akademischen Unterricht als derjenige präsentiert, der juristischen Personen reales Leben eingehaucht habe. Das Gegen- oder gar Feindbild ist die juristische Person als rein fiktives Rechtsgebilde, eine Lesart, die dem zwei Generationen älteren Friedrich Carl von Savigny angelastet wird. Gierkes anthropomorphe Umschreibung juristischer Personen als „reale Verbandspersönlichkeiten“ mag in heutigen Debatten anschlussfähig wirken, wenn es darum geht, Personalität und Rechtsfähigkeit über Menschen hinaus zu denken. Gierkes Vorstellungen über juristische Personen wurzeln jedoch in einer unübersichtlichen Gemengelage aus Historismus, Nationalismus, Liberalismus und Sozialromantik, die uns sehr fremd ist. Was der von Gierke seit dem Mittelalter aufgespürte „germanische Associationsgeist“ zu „Genossenschaften“ zusammenfügte, sollte der moderne Staat nicht hinweg regulieren dürfen, sondern sich im Gegenteil selbst unter dem Einfluss von „Genossenschaften“ aller Art verändern. Der Vortrag rekonstruiert, wie Gierke sein aus der Geschichte destilliertes Genossenschaftsmodell in den zeitgenössischen Diskurs zur juristischen Person einbrachte.

description: Da sempre la balena, per la sua grandezza smisurata e le fattezze per certi versi mostruose, ha affascinato gli uomini, suscitando al tempo stesso sentimenti di terrore e meraviglia, di sgomento e stupore. Questa creatura ibrida, a cavallo tra il mondo terrestre e quello acquatico, pesce e mammifero al tempo stesso, ha alimentato il sorgere di miti e narrazioni leggendarie, a partire dal racconto biblico del cetaceo che inghiotte Giona, alle storie di Sindbad il Marinaio o del mostro Jasconius della Navigatio Sancti Brendani, fino all’epico Moby Dick di Melville. Attraverso una rilettura del capitolo della balena del Bestiario medio inglese, il saggio intende offrire uno sguardo sulla natura ambigua di questa creatura, simbolo del diavolo subdolo e seduttore. Il motivo del profumo ingannevole e della illusione prodotta dalla balena-isola, sono allegorie degli strumenti che il demonio mette in campo per adescare gli uomini sprovveduti e trascinarli ineluttabilmente nella dannazione eterna.

The whale, due to its immense size and somewhat monstrous features, has always fascinated men, arousing at the same time feelings of terror and wonder, of dismay and amazement. This hybrid creature, straddling the terrestrial and aquatic worlds, fish and mammal at the same time, has fuelled the proliferation of myths and legendary narratives, starting from the biblical tale of the cetacean that swallowed Jonah, to the stories of Sindbad the Sailor or the monster Jasconius from the Navigatio Sancti Brendani, up to Melville’s epic Moby Dick. Through a rereading of the whale’s chapter from the Middle English Bestiary, the essay intends to offer a glimpse into the ambiguous nature of this creature, symbol of the devious and seductive devil. The motif of the deceptive perfume and the illusion produced by the whale with its island-like appearance are allegories of the tools that the devil uses to lure unwary men and drag them ineluctably into eternal damnation.

description: A confirmatory high-performance liquid chromatography method with fluorescence detection (HPLC-FLD) was developed and validated for the simultaneous determination of the following anti-parasitic veterinary drugs in foodstuffs (liver, muscle and milk) and feed: abamectin, doramectin, emamectin, eprinomectin, ivermectin and moxidectin. Samples were extracted, purified and analysed by HPLC-FLD after prior derivatisation of analytes with N-methylimidazole, trifluoracetic anhydride and acetic acid to produce stable fluorescent derivatives. Recoveries were in the range of 73–98% (liver), 82–93% (muscle), 77–84% (milk), and 93–110% (feed). In all matrices the coefficients of variation for repeatability and intra-laboratory reproducibility were satisfactory. For emamectin in liver the worst method performance was observed. As this multi-analyte method fully met the required criteria and applicability both to food and feed, it has been successfully applied in National Control Plans in food and feed.

description: Many bacterial genomes have been sequenced and stored in public databases now, of which Reference Sequence (RefSeq) is the most widely used one. However, the annotation in RefSeq is still unsatisfactory. The present analysis is focused on the re-annotation of an important plant pathogen genome Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae PXO99A (Xoo PXO99A), which is the causal agent of bacterial blight on rice. Based on the parameters of 28 nucleotide frequencies and support vector machine algorithm, 41 originally annotated hypothetical genes were recognized as noncoding sequences, which were further supported by principal component analysis and other evidence. Ten of them were tested with reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction experiments (RT-PCR), and all of them were confirmed to be noncoding sequences. Furthermore, 197 potential new genes not annotated in RefSeq were both recognized by two ab initio gene finding programs. Most of them only have sequence similarities with part of the known genes in other species, so they are unlikely to be protein-coding genes. Twelve potential new genes have high full-length sequence similarities with function-known genes, which are very likely to be true protein-coding genes. All the 12 potential genes were tested with RT-PCR, and 11 of them (92%) were successfully amplified in cDNA template. The RT-PCR experiments confirm that our theoretical prediction has high accuracy. The improvement of Xoo PXO99A annotation is helpful for the research of lifestyle, metabolism, and pathogenicity of this important plant pathogen. The improved annotation can be obtained from http://211.69.128.148/Xoo.

description: Drug resistance acquired by Leishmania donovani (Ldv) is a major problem in the treatment and control of visceral leishmaniasis (VL). Glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH), a major glycolytic enzyme has been targeted as is found in other protozoan which cause diseases like sleeping sickness. GAPDH gene of Ldv (AG83 strain) was amplified, sequenced, and modeled on the basis of crystal structure of Leishmania mexicana. The model of the Ldv GAPDH exhibited NAD-binding domain with Rossmann folding. Virtual screening of different experimentally proved compounds with the crystal and the modeled structures of GAPDH of Leishmania strains revealed diverse binding affinities of different compounds. Comparison of binding affinities (based on different programs) of compounds revealed that discovery studio v2.5 (Ligandfit) was able to predict the most hit compounds, the best hit compounds against GAPDH of Leishmania strains are hydrazine, vetrazine, and benzyl carbazate. It is predicted that patients suffering from both VL and cardiac disorders (atrial fibrillation) may benefit if they are treated with warfarin in conjunction with first-line antileishmanial therapies such as miltefosine and AmBisome.

description: Cattle manure, dewatered pig manure and chicken manure were pre-treated in a high-temperature reactor under isochoric conditions for 15 min at temperatures between 100 and 225°C with 25°C intervals to study the effect on their methane yield. After 27 days of batch incubation, cattle manure showed a significant improvement in its biochemical methane potential (BMP) of 13% at 175°C and 21% at 200°C. Pig manure showed improvements at temperatures of 125°C and above, with a maximum 29% increase in yield at 200°C. The BMP of chicken manure was reduced by 18% at 225°C, but at lower temperatures there were no significant changes. It was found that this method of pre-treatment could be feasible if sufficient surplus energy was available or if the energy used in the pre-treatment could be recovered.
Homology modeling and docking studies of FabH (β-ketoacyl-ACP synthase III) enzyme involved in type II fatty acid biosynthesis of Chlorella variabilis: a potential algal feedstock for biofuel production

description: The concept of using microalgae as an alternative renewable source of biofuel has gained much importance in recent years. However, its commercial feasibility is still an area of concern for researchers. Unraveling the fatty acid metabolic pathway and understanding structural features of various key enzymes regulating the process will provide valuable insights to target microalgae for augmented oil content. FabH (β-ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein synthase; KAS III) is a condensing enzyme catalyzing the initial elongation step of type II fatty acid biosynthetic process and acyl carrier protein (ACP) facilitates the shuttling of the fatty acyl intermediates to the active site of the respective enzymes in the pathway. In the present study, a reliable three-dimensional structure of FabH from Chlorella variabilis, an oleaginous green microalga was modeled and subsequently the key residues involved in substrate binding were determined by employing protein–protein docking and molecular dynamics (MD) simulation protocols. The FabH-ACP complex having the lowest docking energy score showed the binding of ACP to the electropositive FabH surface with strong hydrogen bond interactions. The MD simulation results indicated that the substrate-complexed FabH adopted a more stable conformation than the free enzyme. Further, the FabH structure retained its stability throughout the simulation although noticeable displacements were observed in the loop regions. Molecular simulation studies suggested the importance of crucial hydrogen bonding of the conserved Arg91 of FabH with Glu53 and Asp56 of ACP for exhibiting high affinity between the enzyme and substrate. The molecular modeling results are consistent with available experimental results on the flexibility of FabH and the present study provides first in silico insights into the structural and dynamical aspect of catalytic mechanism of FabH, which could be used for further site-specific mutagenic experiments to develop engineered high oil-yielding microalgal strains for biofuel production.

description: This study estimated the age of Hexaplex trunculus (Gastropoda: Muricidae) by analysing operculum growth marks. Surface striae and adventitious layers were counted in opercula of H. trunculus from the Ria Formosa Lagoon (southern Portugal) and from the Bizerte Lagoon (northern Tunisia), and in aquacultured individuals used for validation of the ageing technique. Operculum growth features were also compared between H. trunculus populations under contrasting environmental conditions (namely seawater temperature). Despite high inter-individual variability, all H. trunculus populations displayed a clear increasing trend in the number of striae and layers with increasing specimen size. The operculum marginal growth revealed that opercular deposition is not annual. Instead, a few growth marks are formed in the operculum each year, which was confirmed with reared specimens. In both ageing methods, considerable variation in the number of counts at a determined shell length indicates that operculum growth marks should be interpreted cautiously because they might not correspond accurately with individual age. Because of the subjectivity inherent to either method, counting striae and layers in opercula only provides rough age estimates of H. trunculus.

description: The interaction of HIV-1 trans-activator protein Tat with its cognate trans-activation response element (TAR) RNA is critical for viral transcription and replication. Therefore, it has long been considered as an attractive target for the development of antiviral compounds. Recently, the conformationally constrained cyclic peptide mimetics of Tat have been tested to be a promising family of lead peptides. Here, we focused on two representative cyclic peptides termed as L-22 and KP-Z-41, both of which exhibit excellent inhibitory potency against Tat and TAR interaction. By means of molecular dynamics simulations, we obtained a detailed picture of the interactions between them and HIV-1 TAR RNA. In results, it is found that the binding modes of the two cyclic peptides to TAR RNA are almost identical at or near the bulge regions, whereas the binding interfaces at the apical loop exhibit large conformational heterogeneity. In addition, it is revealed that electrostatic interaction energy contributes much more to KP-Z-41 complex formation than to L-22 complex, which is the main source of energy that results in a higher binding affinity of KP-Z-41 over-22 for TAR RNA. Furthermore, we identified a conserved motif RRK (Arg-Arg-Lys) that is shown to be essential for specific binding of this class of cyclic peptides to TAR RNA. This work can provide a useful insight into the design and modification of cyclic peptide inhibitors targeting the association of HIV-1 Tat and TAR RNA.

description: This study presents a comprehensive revision of the genus Sarcocornia (Chenopodiaceae) on the Iberian Peninsula based on macromorphological, micromorphological and phylogenetic data, and considering caryological, ecological and biogeographical information. Three species of Sarcocornia have been identified on the Iberian Peninsula: Sarcocornia perennis (Miller) A.J. Scott, Sarcocornia fruticosa (L.) A.J. Scott and Sarcocorniaalpini (Lag.) Rivas-Martínez. Several authors have proposed that S.alpini is a specific and subspecific rank of S. perennis. Fuente, Rufo and Sánchez-Mata have recently described a new species, Sarcocornia hispanica. The micromorphological and molecular studies (sequence of the internal transcribed spacer region) indicate that there is a broad diversity within Sarcocornia in the Western Mediterranean. This article proposes a new species (Sarcocornia pruinosa) and subspecies (S. alpini subsp. carinata) in view of the new data.

description: The aim of the study was to establish the main types of oak-hornbeam (Carpinus betulus and Quercus sp. div) forests on the Apennines, Balkan peninsula and southern Alps and their correlations with the main ecological and phytogeographical gradients in the region. Furthermore, the comparison with the major types recognized in the traditional expert-based classification was done. 1676 relevés of oak-hornbeam forests (alliances Erythronio-Carpinion, Carpinion moesiacum, Physospermo verticillati-Quercion cerris) from the area of the Apennines, Balkan peninsula and southern Alps were collected and entered in a Turboveg database. 508 relevés remained after stratification and were classified with a Modified Two Way Indicator Species Analysis, which resulted in four main clusters that are phytogeographically interpretable, such as (1) southern Apennines, (2) northern-central and central Apennines, (3) central-southern Balkan and (4) north-western Balkan and southern Alps, further divided into subclusters. Pignatti indicator values calculated for relevés of each subcluster were subjected to PCA in order to show the ecological relationships among subclusters, and the spectra of geo-elements were calculated to show the phytogeographical relationship between them. The diagnostic species combination was calculated by a fidelity measure (phi-coefficient) and presented in a synoptic table. Synsystematic classification of the elaborated groups is proposed.

description: EXECUTIVE SUMMARY OBJECTIVE The object of this study is the possibility of using modern means of constant exposure to reduce the pathogenic flora on the surface of objects in combination with the properties of objects to prevent and reduce injuries from falls. GOALS To substantiate the need for antimicrobial additives in the composition of wall protection systems materials often used in all public institutions. Demonstrate the need for continued handrails to prevent and reduce injury from falls. To show how these two goals can be combined in one product and type of material, which will synergistically produce significantly positive results for the public. SOLUTION A new way to use ionpure silver as an antimicrobial agent in ARFEN wall protection systems effectively affects the pathogenic flora. Therefore, significantly reducing its amount helps prevent the spread of diseases. This material in ARFEN handrails and other wall protection materials, combined with antimicrobial action and fall injury prevention, will save many lives. SUMMARY It has been proven and given enough evidence that silver ion, which is used to manufacture ARFEN products, significantly reduces the spread of pathogenic flora, including SARS-Cov viruses. There is evidence and ample evidence that the use of handrails, in combination with new design codes, significantly reduces the incidence of grass from falls. The validity of ARFEN products in combination with antimicrobial effects is shown in the struggle to improve the population's quality of life.

description: We develop a hierarchical Bayesian model linking the abundance of individual phytoplankton species with over a decade (1995–2011) of environmental data from the Cariaco Ocean Time Series Program in the Cariaco Basin, Venezuela, to characterize how phytoplankton respond to environmental forcing. Temperature, salinity, irradiance, and macronutrient concentrations account for 39% of the variation in log cell abundance across 67 species. Individual phytoplankton taxa varied widely in their response to these environmental variables. A principal component analysis of the environmental response profiles clearly distinguishes the responses of diatoms and dinoflagellates to environmental forcing. Phytoplankton abundance primarily varied with temperature, pH, and irradiance, with salinity and macronutrient concentrations acting as secondary drivers. In the aggregate, our results demonstrate that environmental changes, whether short-term or a result of climate change, should be expected to have dramatic consequences on the taxonomic composition of phytoplankton communities.

description: In Italy, Corynephorus communities are distributed along the medium course of the Ticino river and Sesia river and the internal sand dunes of Lomellina (through the Vercelli, Novara and Pavia provinces); these stations represent the southern limit of European distribution of this habitat. A phytosociological study was carried out to gain better knowledge of their composition; of their affinity or diversity against the central European communities; of their distribution and of the main threats to their conservation. Original and literature relevés (114) were elaborated producing a cluster analysis; correspondence analysis (CA), principal component analysis and Kruskal–Wallis test were carried on to characterize the clusters of relevés taking into consideration biological forms, chorological groups, Ellenberg indicator values and floristic groups. Italian Corynephorus communities can be attributed to the following syntaxa: Spergulo vernalis-Corynephoretum canescentis, Spergulo vernalis-Corynephoretum canescentis cladonietosum, Spergulo vernalis-Corynephoretum canescentis silenetosum nutantis and Spergulo vernalis-Corynephoretum canescentis artemisietosum campestris. Italian Corynephorus communities are included in the Habitat 2330 of the EU Habitat Directive. They are threatened by different factors (such as restricted areas of occurrence, alien plant invasion and natural dynamics) and they need to be managed if we want to conserve them.

description: In subterranean ecotope, where absence of light and ventilation limits visual and olfactory communication, options for long-range communication are restricted. Sound is thus one of the few channels available for transfer of the intraspecific information if the animals are not in direct contact. Nevertheless, even this kind of communication is limited by the acoustic conditions of the burrows. It is known that low-frequency sounds are best propagated here. In our study, we describe the vocal repertoire of the social subterranean rodent, the giant mole-rat (Fukomys mechowii, Bathyergidae), from mesic Afrotropics. Its vocal repertoire is shifted to lower frequencies than in other subterranean rodents. The giant mole-rat has the richest vocal repertoire among all subterranean rodents studied so far. In four behavioural contexts, we distinguished 14 single sounds of true vocalization and four types of mechanical communication. Additionally, one seismic (soil-borne) signal of unclear function has been identified. We suggest that the rich vocal repertoire is connected with rich social interactions in giant mole-rat families.

description: Recordings from acoustic tags show that five Blainville's beaked whales produced mid-frequency broadband sounds on all of their deep dives, with each sex producing two different sound types. These broadband sounds are atypical of the regular echolocation sounds previously described for this species. One male produced a total of 75 sounds over four dives, between the depths of 109 and 524 m, and four females produced a total of 71 sounds over 18 dives, between the depths of 305 and 1289 m. Ninety-six per cent of the male sounds and 42% of the female sounds were produced before the onset of foraging echolocation sounds, and all were produced before the deepest point of the dives. Apparent source levels of the sounds ranged from 124 to 132 dB re 1 μPa (RMS) @1 m. These sounds may be candidate communication signals, with their production timed to mitigate the risk of both predation and hypoxia.
Butterflies (Lepidoptera: Papilionoidea) of Mount Kilimanjaro: family Pieridae, subfamily Coliadinae

description: This paper forms part of a series on the butterfly fauna of Mount Kilimanjaro. Three genera (Catopsilia, Colias and Eurema) with eight species of Coliadinae are believed to occur within the main forest zone. However, of these, one or two may prove to be no more than variants of a third species, Eurema desjardinsii. A fourth conventionally recognized member of the complex may occur on the lower slopes below 1800 m. The widespread species Eurema hecabe occurs on the lower slopes, but records are sparse, and no records of its close relative Eurema floricola, with which it has often been confused, have been found. The need for original field and laboratory research on the taxonomy of African Eurema species is stressed. Keys to adult Coliadinae found in Tanzania, with colour illustrations, are included as online supplementary material.

description: The sanctuary campus movement ignited following the election of Donald Trump as the 45th president of the United States. The movement has given rise to questions about the protections available to undocumented immigrants in the United States, with specific emphasis placed on the vulnerability of undocumented students. The movement joins a list of sanctuary initiatives, such as the sanctuary city movement of the 1980s, which was plagued by negative rhetoric that taints the political discourse surrounding sanctuary campuses. Despite the humanitarian nature of the sanctuary campus movement, its legal impact on undocumented students remains uncertain while politicians and right-wing conservatives oppose it as a violation of federal law. This Note analyzes the legal barriers currently facing the sanctuary campus movement, examines current immigration and privacy laws affecting the movement, and discusses ways sanctuary campuses can fill in the gaps left by such laws in order to improve protections for undocumented students.
Application of an untargeted metabolomics approach for the identification of compounds that may be responsible for observed differential effects in chickens fed an organic and a conventional diet

description: The aim of this study was to apply an untargeted NMR and LC-MS-based metabolomics approach to detect potential differences between an organically and a conventionally produced feed, which caused statistically significant differences in growth, in the response to an immunological challenge and in the gene expression profiles in the small intestine of laying hens. A fractionation procedure was set up to create multiple fractions of the feed, which were subsequently analysed by NMR and UPLC-TOF/MS operating in positive mode. Comparison of the profiles revealed that the most apparent differences came from the isoflavones in the soy as well as a compound with a molecular mass of 441.202 (M + 1)+, which was identified as N,N′-diferuloylputrescine (DFP) and came from the corn. Whether the observed differences in effects are due to the higher levels of isoflavones and DFP is unclear, as is the fact whether the observed differences are typical for organic or conventional produced corn and soy. However, this study shows that this metabolomics approach is suitable for detecting potential differences between products, even in levels of compounds that would have been overlooked with a more targeted approach. As such, the method is suitable for a more systematic study on differences between conventionally and organically produced food.

description: To put it simply, agriculture is fundamental to human existence on our planet. Through farming, it ispossible to produce an abundance of food that can sustainably nourish a big population. The agriculturalsector and the export of other consumer goods form the backbone of India's economy. Because of itscentral role in facilitating productive development and supplying sustenance to both the nation and itsdependent nations, agriculture is an integral aspect of the Indian subcontinent. Identifying weeds on a farmis typically a labor-intensive, time-consuming process that might be nearly difficult for a single farmer todo on a large-scale operation. There are other, more important things that could be done with the time thatthis takes up. Weed detection and identification can be enhanced with the use of new technology. So, toaddress this issue, this method suggests a practical and efficient system for weed classification that makesuse of Convolutional Neural Networks and Decision Making. Crucial to the methodology's performancerealization has been the approach's successful evaluation through experimentation.

description: A recent New York Times exposé highlighted the inner workings of the nail salon industry in New York City, and revealed to the public how rampant wage theft props up an industry that relies on low-wage, undocumented women workers. New York’s response provides a starting point to consider how governments should respond to wage theft as it affects undocumented women. There are various legal regimes available for responding to wage theft, but each presents serious shortcomings when it intersects with the immigration system, primarily because of the threat of retaliation. As federal protections are weak or exacerbate the victimization of undocumented women, states should strengthen anti-retaliation protections specific to undocumented workers. California passed legislation in this area which New York should adopt. While the protections provided in California’s legislation would strengthen each of the various legal regimes discussed, they would also empower undocumented women to break the silence imposed by retaliation and tell narratives that resist victimization.
