CleanMat, EarlyView.Oyster shell (OS) as a sustainable calcium source for chromium recovery from tannery sludge via co‐pyrolysis. OS outperformed CaCO3, achieving > 95% Cr recovery, attributed to its organic matrix proteins enhancing adsorption and phase conversion. The oxidation of tannery sludge Cr(III) to Cr(VI) improved recyclability, aligning with circular economy ...

Evidence from Strandings for Geomagnetic Sensitivity in Cetaceans [PDF]
, 1986 We tested the hypothesis that cetaceans use weak anomalies in the geomagnetic field as cues for orientation, navigation and/or piloting. Using the positions of 212 stranding events of live animals in the Smith sonian compilation which fall within the ...

Developmental Dynamics, EarlyView.Abstract Background Biomineralization is a vital biological process through which organisms produce mineralized structures such as shells, skeletons, and teeth. Microtubules are essential for biomineralization in various eukaryotic species; however, their specific roles in this process remain unclear.

ENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.Modification of bamboo cell walls using chemical in‐situ bonding was carried out, while optimizing the arrangement of bamboo fibers. Additionally, an N‐P‐B flame retardant system was formed within the bamboo material to develop an ultra‐strong flame retardant bamboo‐based composite.

Biomaterials‐Involved Construction of Extracellular Matrices for Tumor Blockade Therapy
Exploration, EarlyView.Extracellular matrices (ECMs) play a crucial role in tumor growth and metastases by providing structural support and facilitating tumor cell proliferation. In this review, we explore the development of artificial ECMs engineered through biomineralization, fibrogenesis, and gelation. These bioinspired ECMs create a protective barrier around tumor cells,

Macromolecular Bioscience, EarlyView.Boron‐doped baghdadite (BAG)‐loaded polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane scaffolds produced by non‐solvent induced phase separation (NIPS) show higher hydrophilicity, bioactivity and cancellous‐bone‐like mechanics. The scalable BAG/PVDF composites offer a versatile alternative to traditional bone grafts for regenerative medicine. Abstract This study
