ABSTRACT Technological analysis of the late Holocene component of the stone artefact assemblage recovered from the Kings Table rockshelter in the Blue Mountains, west of Sydney, provides the basis for an assessment of the site's role in broader late Holocene settlement‐subsistence systems. Drawing on Kuhn's widely employed “provisioning model”, as well

Jacques de Vitry (d. 1240) and the Religious Life of his Time
Abstract In this article the scholar, preacher and bishop Jacques de Vitry (d. 1240) is taken as a vantage point to look at the religious life of his time. He had personal involvement with the nascent university of Paris, the earliest beguines of the Low Countries, the crusades against heretics and Muslims, and the first friars.

An extracellular matrix‐inspired polyelectrolyte multilayer film is functionalized with lipoplexes and used as gene activated biomaterial surface coating for application in regenerative medicine. Collagen I‐chondroitin sulfate multilayers with embedded lipoplexes having plasmids encoding for bone morphogenic protein 2 gene promote adhesion and growth ...

Amination of Polymeric Braid Structures to Improve Tendon Healing: An Experimental Comparison
Poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) and poly(lactic acid) (PLA) are polymers useful in tendon repair, though with minimal success. There is a need to improve such scaffolds' design and physical–chemical nature. The work concerns functionalization of PET/PLA braids to incorporate amine groups in the braids' surface, improve cell adhesion, and ...

Evaluation of plant extracts as an efficient source of additives for active food packaging
Natural extracts from aromatic plants as additives for active food packaging film. Abstract Natural extracts have been used in several traditional medicine applications and culinary purposes. Their biological properties (antioxidant and antimicrobial) are due to the presence of several active aromatic compounds.

Join the main‐group meeting: Chalcogen‐bonded silicon(IV) phosphinidenes LSi(E)−P−MecAAC (E=S, Se, Te) were synthesized from the reactions of silylene–phosphinidene LSi−P−MecAAC with elemental chalcogens. These are the first molecular examples in which a Si=E group is attached to a phosphinidene moiety.

Caffeine is widely present in food and drinks, such as teas and coffees, being also part of some currently commercialized medicines, but despite its enhancement on several functions of human body, its exceeding use can promote many health problems. In order to develop new fast approaches for the caffeine sensing, graphite‐epoxy composite electrodes ...

The sintering of different ZnO nanostructures by the thermal decomposition of zinc acetate is reported. Morphological changes from nanorods to nanoparticles are exhibited with the increase of the decomposition temperature from 300 to 500°C. The material showed a loss in the crystalline order with the increase in the temperature, which is correlated to ...

Study of the influence of hornification treatment and jute and mallow fiber length on the physical, thermal, and mechanical properties of recycled polypropylene (PP) composites. ABSTRACT The growing accumulation of plastic waste has driven its reuse in the development of new composites, with natural fibers emerging as promising reinforcements. However,
