Antioxidants in Infection

open access: yesJournal of Nutritional Science and Vitaminology, 1993
Endogenous oxidation reactions are essential for the normal biochemistry of life and are especially critical for leukocyte microbial killing mechanisms in host defense to infectious diseases. However, reactive oxidative intermediates can damage normal tissues unless kept under antioxidant control.

Supramolecular Liquid Crystal Elastomer Adhesives: Role of Internal Damping and Hydrogen Bonding

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The adhesion strength can be significantly enhanced through the molecular design of supramolecular liquid crystal elastomers (LCEs) that combine high internal damping from mesogen reorientation with abundant hydrogen‐bonding moieties. Solvent vapor annealing enables reversible, non‐thermal control of adhesion, offering potential for heat‐sensitive ...
