Fabaceae: South African Medicinal Plant Species Used in the Treatment and Management of Sexually Transmitted and Related Opportunistic Infections Associated with HIV-AIDS

Data, 2023
The use of medicinal plants, particularly in the treatment of sexually transmitted and related infections, is ancient. These plants may well be used as alternative and complementary medicine to a variety of antibiotics that may possess limitations mainly

Programmable Pneumatic Actuator System for a Bioinspired Artificial Colon

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A modular soft robotic colon simulator driven by programmable pneumatic actuation is developed to mimic physiological and pathological‐like motility patterns of the large intestine. Finite element–guided design and distributed control enable anatomically realistic deformation for peristalsis, segmentation, and mass movements, supporting capsule ...

Separation and Valorization of Chlorine From Tail Gas Streams

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
A commercially available ion exchange resin was found to adsorb chlorine gas selectively in the presence of other gases reversibly forming the corresponding trichloride species [IEx][Cl3]. This discovery was telescoped to an efficient process for the recycling and valorization of chlorine from industrially abundant tail gas streams to base chemicals ...

Hybrid Inertial–Centrifugal Gas–Liquid Separator: CFD‐Driven Optimization Using Coupled Discrete Phase and Wall‐Film Modeling With Response Surface Methodology

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Efficient removal of liquid aerosols from compressed gas streams is essential in chemical and energy processes. Conventional separators relying on a single mechanism (inertial or centrifugal) struggle to capture both fine and coarse droplets simultaneously.

Mapping drought severity impact on arboriculture systems over Tadla and lower Tassaout plains in Morocco using Sentinel-2 data and machine learning approaches

Geocarto International
Severe droughts have affected the irrigated regions of Tadla and Lower Tassaout, Morocco, since 2019, peaking in September 2021. This study integrates Sentinel-2 satellite imagery with machine learning algorithms (MLAs) to quantify drought impacts on ...

Creating space(s) for learning in prison: Developing an andragogical framework

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract Learning in prison is too often excluded from wider discussions of educational experiences, processes and impact. This paper proposes, for the first time, an iterative andragogical framework to conceptualise learning spaces within prison contexts.

Greening the Bottom Line: Public Funding for Circular Economy Initiatives and Financial Stability

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Public funding for circular economy (CE) initiatives plays a crucial role in shaping corporate financial performance, yet its effects remain underexplored. Grounded in the resource‐based view (RBV) of the firm, this study investigates the financial impact of CE funding on private firms, using Portugal as a case study. It analyses the financial

Effects of Morphological Age and Indole-3-Butyric Acid Concentration on Rooting of Selected Robusta Coffee Varieties

Coffee and Cocoa Research Journal
In response to the outbreak of Coffee Wilt Disease (CWD) which wiped out almost 50% of Robusta coffee in Uganda, the National Coffee Research Institute (NaCORI) released 10 varieties (KR1-10) which are resistant to the disease. These varieties are being
