Recent records of the invasive ctenophore Mnemiopis leidyi A. Agassiz, 1865 in the North Sea are a cause for concern due to the detrimental effects this invader has had on fish stocks in the Black and Caspian seas. The North Sea is a major fishing ground

3D‐printing of Methacryloylated Recombinant Collagen for Tissue Engineering
Recombinant collagen‐like proteins offer promise as alternatives to mammalian collagens. There is less risk of disease transfer, and changes in structure can be readily introduced. Here, a recombinant collagen‐like protein was methacryloylated for extrusion printing and rapid photo‐crosslinking.

First records of two lobate comb-jellies (Ctenophora) from the Pakistani coast [PDF]
The knowledge on the comb-jellies faunistics along the southern Asian coast is very scarce. For some countries such as Pakistan there are no previous formal records of ctenophores. This study is a first survey to the group diversity along Pakistani coast, resulting in the first records of two lobate species, Bolinopsis infundibulum and Ocyropsis ...

Conventional and microwave‐assisted extractions of grapefruit peels were optimized using response surface methodology (RSM) based on TPC, TFC, and antioxidant activity (DPPH). The phytochemical profiles of the two optimum extracts were characterized via HPLC before evaluating their acute and chronic toxicity, as well as their effects on honey bee (Apis

Finding a rare fossilized comb jelly reveals new gaps in the fossil record
They look like jellyfish but they aren’t. They seem inoffensive but are efficient predators — occasionally, they even eat fish. They are gelatinous and very delicate — and extremely rarely do they fossilize! Ctenophores, also known as comb jellies, are colourful, translucent animals, that drift through oceanic waters.

Propolis is rarely used in conventional cosmetics within the EU, and such products are therefore unlikely to be significant sources of exposure for patients with positive patch test reactions to propolis. There is no evidence that small amounts of propolis in white beeswax (cera alba) in cosmetics can trigger allergic contact dermatitis in individuals ...

This study evaluates 3D‐printed recombinant spider silk hydrogel eADF4(C16)‐RGD in a rat AV loop model for tissue engineering. Constructs with T17b endothelial progenitor cells showed enhanced vascularization and biodegradation. Results highlight the importance of scaffold design and cellular integration in improving vascular density and overall ...

Separator Engineering for Stable Zinc Anodes in Aqueous Zinc‐Ion Batteries
Aqueous Zinc‐ion batteries boast high energy density, low cost, and safety but face challenges like zinc dendrites, hydrogen evolution reaction, and anode corrosion. Separator engineering—modifying glass fiber separators and developing novel ones—addresses these issues, boosting their electrochemical performance and long‐cycle stability.
