A proximodistal gradient in bone structure and mechanics in the wings of Seba's short‐tailed bat, Carollia perspicillata

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Bats possess the remarkable ability to fly, and with this, distinctive wing bone properties. We investigated the structural, mechanical, and compositional properties of the humerus, radius, metacarpals, and proximal and middle phalanges of Carollia perspicillata, an approximately 15 g fruit‐eating bat native to the Neotropics.

Developing medication independence: The experience of UK teenagers

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims There is a progression through childhood from being provided medications by caregivers to having to take responsibility for medications yourself, but little is known about when the transition of adolescents managing medicines begins. The aim of this study was to obtain a cross‐sectional sample of UK adolescents and when they become independent ...

Addition Reactions of Phosphorus‐Centered Radicals onto Olefins: Interplay Between Stability and Reactivity

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
The energetics of the addition reaction of P‐centered radicals onto alkenes are primarily ruled by the stability of the attacking radical, as outlined by the computational screening of a wide range of reactions. In addition, donor‐acceptor substituents at the olefin have an important tuning role.

Unravelling the initiator‐only stage in alginate grafting: Radical‐induced depolymerization and its impact on acrylamide grafting efficiency

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Free‐radical grafting of natural polymers often assumes that initiators only create active sites before monomer addition. We tested this by exposing sodium alginate to potassium persulphate (KPS) under typical grafting conditions without monomer (acrylamide).

Inter‐Crystal Spacing of Implantable Polymeric Surfaces as a Key Suppressor of Microbial Adhesion.

Small, EarlyView.
Biofilm formation on implantable devices is addressed by controlling inter‐crystal spacing in shape memory polymers. Repeated shape recovery aligns and enlarges crystalline phases and reduces amorphous regions, enhancing bacterial repellency. Three biofilm‐forming bacteria show reduced adhesion, and a one‐year dog bile‐duct model maintains function ...
