Effects of maritime saline and humid environments on the characteristics of combustion dropping behavior of flexible polyurethane foam

Case Studies in Thermal Engineering
Flexible polyurethane foam (FPUF), a common combustible material in ship cabins, poses fire safety risks due to its molten droplet flow and dropping behavior.

Concept of Using an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) for 3D Investigation of Air Quality in the Atmosphere—Example of Measurements Near a Roadside

Atmosphere, 2022
A substantial amount of air pollution is emitted from urban sources. Hence, investigating air pollutant dispersion from urban sources is of great importance. The mechanisms influencing air pollutant dispersion also need to be studied thoroughly. Unmanned

Surface reconstruction regulation of catalysts for cathodic catalytic electrosynthesis

Applied Catalysis O: Open
Catalytic electrosynthesis powered by renewable energies shows potential to replace the traditional thermal catalysis due to low emissions, reduced energy consumption and enhanced safety. Cathodic reduction reactions can produce high-value chemicals such

Comparative Evaluation of Hemodiafiltration, Hemoperfusion, and Standard Hemodialysis on Efficacy, Inflammatory Control, Dialysis Adequacy, and Safety in End‐Stage Renal Disease: A Prospective Observational Study

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Chronic micro‐inflammation in patients with end‐stage renal disease (ESRD) is a significant driver of cardiovascular complications and diminished quality of life. While standard hemodialysis (SHD) effectively manages small‐molecule clearance, its ability to remove medium‐to‐large uremic toxins—the primary catalysts of systemic ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Carbon Nanotubes-Doped Metal Oxides and Metal Sulfides Heterostructure Achieves 3D Morphology Deposition of Li₂S and Stable Long-Cycle Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

Inorganics
The “shuttle effect” caused by the shuttling of soluble long-chain polysulfides between the anode and cathode electrodes has persistently hindered lithium–sulfur batteries (LSBs) from achieving stable and high-capacity performance.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Influences of an Arrow’s Aerodynamic Pressure Center on Recurve Bow Shooting

Applied Sciences
An arrow’s attack angle continuously changes during its flight, which affects the position of the aerodynamic pressure center. To account for the offset between the aerodynamic pressure center and the center of mass of an arrow in recurve bow shooting ...

Salmonella lipopolysaccharide‐containing supported lipid bilayers as platforms to study bacteriophage interactions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...
