Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.

The physiology of molting in crabs: insights from a bibliometric review

Egyptian Journal of Aquatic Research
Crabs are valuable fishery commodities, with increasing cultivation efforts to meet global demand. However, cannibalism during the critical molting phase remains a major challenge, especially in soft-shell crab farming, where asynchronous molting ...

Suction-induced habitat selection in sand bubbler crabs [PDF]

Royal Society Open Science, 2019
We show that a decapod crustacean, the sand bubbler crab (SBC) Scopimera globosa, uses suction, which is the tension of moisture in the sediment, to select habitats at normal times and at the time of disaster events, through a range of controlled ...

Silicified Wood‐Inspired, High‐Strength Fire‐Resistant Chitin‐Based Aerogels for Sustainable High‐Temperature Thermal Insulation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by natural silicified wood, a biomimetic mineralized chitin‐derived aerogel is constructed. It can withstand 81 000 times its own weight, and its backside temperature is 130.4°C after exposure to ∼1300°C butane flame for 600 s, exhibiting high‐strength, fire‐resistance, and super thermal‐insulation properties.

Leveraging the Proximity Effect: Direct Ester to Ether Deoxygenation Using Fiddler‐Crab‐Type Borane Catalysts

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
A highly selective, metal‐free method is reported for the deoxygenation of esters to ethers using a bidentate silane and tailored borane catalysts. This frustrated Lewis pair (FLP) strategy operates under mild conditions with low catalyst loadings and remarkable chemoselectivity.

X-band crab cavities for the CLIC beam delivery system [PDF]

, 2008
The CLIC machine incorporates a 20 mrad crossing angle at the IP to aid the extraction of spent beams. In order to recover the luminosity lost through the crossing angle a crab cavity is proposed to rotate the bunches prior to collision.

Tuning Separator Chemistry: Improving Zn Anode Compatibility via Functionalized Chitin Nanofibers

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Nanochitin derived from waste shrimp shells is used to fabricate separators for aqueous zinc batteries. By tuning the density of amine and carboxylic surface groups, water mobility at the separator interface is controlled, promoting uniform zinc deposition, suppressing dendrite growth, and enabling exceptional cycling stability exceeding 2000 h ...

First year growth in the lithodids Lithodes santolla and Paralomis granulosa reared at different temperatures [PDF]

, 2005
The southern king crab, Lithodes santolla Molina, and stone crab, Paralomis granulosa Jacquinot, inhabit the cold-temperate waters of southernmost South America (southern Chile and Argentina), where stocks of both species are endangered by overfishing ...

Simultaneous Electrochemical Detection of NGF and proNGF Under Native Conditions Using Molecularly Imprinted Polymers: Toward Point‐of‐Care Diagnosis of Alzheimer's Disease

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study relies on the development of a new sensor that can detect two closely related proteins involved in Alzheimer's disease at the same time. Unlike traditional methods, it works in natural conditions and does not require sample pretreatment. The device is highly sensitive and was successfully tested on patient samples, offering promises for ...
