Processing and rheological behavior of cross‐linked polyethylene containing disulfide bonds

SPE Polymers, 2022
Vitrimers are a new class of materials that consist of chemically cross‐linked networks that engage in thermoactivated associative exchange reactions. These exchange reactions can impart malleability, healing, and recyclability properties to thermosets ...

UiO‐66 metal–organic frameworks in biomedicine: From structural tunability to bioimaging, photodiagnostics, and photodynamic cancer therapy

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
UiO‐66(Zr) metal–organic frameworks are chemically stable, biocompatible, and highly tunable nanomaterials. Their modular structure enables controlled drug delivery, multimodal bioimaging, and light‐activated photodynamic therapy, supporting integrated diagnostic and therapeutic (theranostic) applications in cancer and biomedical research.

Crystallinity of Electrospun and centrifugal spun polycaprolactone fibers: A Comparative Study

, 2017
Crystalline properties of semicrystalline polymers are very important parameters that can influence the application area. The internal structure, like the mentioned crystalline properties, of polymers can be influenced by the production technology itself

The Effect of the Chemical Character of Ionic Liquids on Biomass Pre-Treatment and Posterior Enzymatic Hydrolysis

Molecules, 2019
Ionic liquids have been recognised as interesting solvents applicable in efficient lignocellulosic biomass valorisation, especially in biomass fractionation into individual polymeric components or direct hydrolysis of some biomass fractions.

Evaluating the effect of γ‐oryzanol on MASLD pathology using a medaka fish model

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study explores a liver disease called MASLD, which is increasing worldwide and can lead to serious damage. Researchers used medaka fish instead of rodents to test a food compound, γ‐oryzanol. Fish fed this compound had less liver fat and healthier gut bacteria.

Influence of thermal history on the mechanical properties of poly(ether ketone ketone) copolymers [PDF]

, 2019
Since poly(ether ketone ketone) (PEKK) is a good candidate as a matrix for composite structural parts, the mechanical properties of PEKK copolymers prepared from diphenyl ether, terephthalic acid (T), and isophthalic acid (I) with different T/I ratios ...

Co-production of pigment and high value-added bacterial nanocellulose from Suaeda salsa biomass with improved efficiency of enzymatic saccharification and fermentation

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023
This study evaluated the co-production of pigment and bacterial nanocellulose (BNC) from S. salsa biomass. The extraction of the beet red pigment reduced the salts and flavonoids contents by 82.7%–100%, promoting the efficiencies of enzymatic ...

Adenosine triphosphate as a modulator of protein interactions and stability

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
ATP is best known as the cell's energy currency, but it also shapes how proteins fold, interact, aggregate and form biomolecular condensates. This review explains the emerging physical principles behind these effects, including weak binding to charged protein regions, magnesium‐dependent behaviour and concentration‐dependent control of protein ...

Crystallinity-Independent yet Modification-Dependent True Density of Nanocellulose

, 2019
In materials science and crystallography, the true density is an important derived physical quantity of solids. Here we report the correlation of the true density of nanometer-wide fibrillar crystallites of cellulose with their purity, crystallinity ...

Mapping the Social Network Structure and Composition of Black Individuals With Rheumatic and Musculoskeletal Conditions

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.
Objective Our objective was to describe the social networks of Black individuals with rheumatic and musculoskeletal conditions and understand the clustering of health‐related behaviors to inform future community‐based, peer‐led interventions. Methods We used an adapted Personal Network Survey for Clinical Research (PERSNET) to map the personal social ...
