Matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time of flight mass spectrometry for comprehensive indexing of East African ixodid tick species [PDF]
Background: The tick population of Africa includes several important genera belonging to the family Ixodidae. Many of these ticks are vectors of protozoan and rickettsial pathogens including Theileria parva that causes East Coast fever, a debilitating ...

Near‐surface deuterium enrichment profiles for different microstructural types of TiAl after exposure at 700 °C in a heavy water‐containing environment. The deuterium levels are significantly higher than expected from natural occurrence, indicating that the heavy water dissociated during the exposure treatment and entered the specimens.

Despite benefits to storage stability and handleability of aluminum scrap, octadecyl phosphonic acid (ODPA) SAMs reduce the tensile strength of wires produced using friction‐induced recycling. Etching and methyl diphosphonic acid (MDPA) coatings, however, have little effect.

Sorption Hysteresis on Soils and Sediments: Obtaining Characteristic Free Energies Using "Single-Point Desorption Isotherms" [PDF]
Sorption-desorption hysteresis (SDH) may control distributions of chemicals between diverse environmental phases, including soils and sediments. Formation of metastable states caused by pore deformation or inelastic swelling of a sorbent and their ...

Impact of Hydrogen Incorporation on Electronic and Magnetic Structure of X2CrNi18‐9 Stainless Steel
Hydrogen uptake in austenitic stainless steel alters both its electronic and magnetic structure. Seebeck measurements reveal hydrogen‐induced shifts in the electronic density of states, while neutron scattering uncovers nanoscale inhomogeneities that grow upon hydrogen incorporation, with the most pronounced effect observed in the PBF as‐built state ...

Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells
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.

Streambank Legacy Sediments in Surface Waters: Phosphorus Sources or Sinks?
Streambank legacy sediments can contribute substantial amounts of sediments to Mid-Atlantic waterways. However, there is uncertainty about the sediment-bound P inputs and the fate of legacy sediment P in surface waters.

Quaternization of Porous Cellulose Beads and Their Use for Removal of Humic Acid from Aqueous Medium
Porous cellulose beads were quaternized with glycidyltrimethylammonium chloride (GTMAC) to explore a potential use of them as an adsorbent for removal of humic acid (HA) from aqueous medium. The introduction of quaternary ammonium groups was confirmed by
