Sexually selected lip colour indicates male group-holding status in the mating season in a multi-level primate society [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2015 Sexual selection typically produces ornaments in response to mate choice, and armaments in response to male–male competition. Unusually among mammals, many primates exhibit colour signals that may be related to one or both processes.

Cationic Pretreatment for Reactive Dyeing of Cotton and its Simultaneous Antibacterial Functionalisation [PDF]
Tekstilec, 2020 Reactive dyes are chemically bonded to a cotton fibre surface. The anchor groups of dye molecules initiate this covalent bonding. In addition to this anchor group, reactive dyes also contain charged functional groups that are often negatively charged ...
