A Novel Modified Petroresin Particle (MPRP) With Enhanced Oil–Water Selectivity for Cold Production in Heavy Oil Reservoirs

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A novel oil–water selective conformance control agent, MPRP, is prepared via hydrophilic grafting and mechanical granulation. MPRP uniformly disperses in water, cohesively expands upon aging, and readily dissolves in the oil phase. During conformance control, it selectively aggregates in water channeling pathways to form effective plugs without ...

Etiology, epidemiology and clinical characteristics of acute diarrhea in hospitalized children in rural Peru

Journal of Infection in Developing Countries, 2017
Introduction: Diarrhea remains one of the main causes of morbidity and mortality in children under five years of age especially in low-income countries. In Peru, epidemiological reports about enteropathogens related to acute diarrhea are scarce in rural

Chemically Fueled Systems Chemistry Across Length Scales

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Chemically fueled reaction cycles regulate processes through single and multiple catalytic sites on the molecular and assembly scale. This gives rise to unique kinetically controlled properties/functions like spatio‐temporal catalysis, oscillations, optical properties, and perform work.

Bio‐Inspired Biopolymeric Implantable Platform for Localized and Sustained Drug Delivery in Solid Tumor Treatment

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A bio‐inspired biopolymeric implantable drug delivery platform enables localized and sustained release of 7‐ethyl‐10‐hydroxycamptothecin (SN‐38) in solid tumor treatment. The three‐dimensional (3D) structured crosslinked‐chitosan implants are fabricated via 3D‐printed molds and provide drug release over 3 months, significantly inhibiting tumor growth ...

Lowering the Dietary Crude Protein Content Whilst Maintaining Standardized Ileal Digestible Lysine to Crude Protein Ratios Improves Growth and Reduces Diarrhoea in Weaner Pigs

Agriculture
The use of lower crude protein (CP) diets immediately after weaning has long been associated with reduced post-weaning diarrhoea (PWD). However, failing to maintain an appropriate standardized ileal digestible lysine ratio (SID: Lys) may outweigh the ...

Conformational Switching of Proteins on Material Surfaces Enabled by Peptide‐Oriented Adsorption

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Responsive biointerfaces could be achieved using conformationally responsive proteins; however, their interconversion can be lost upon surface adsorption. Herein, we demonstrate that the incorporation a Au binding peptide into calmodulin allows for binding control on Au wherein the protein retains conformational switching. This capability was confirmed
