Microplastics from Wearable Bioelectronic Devices: Sources, Risks, and Sustainable Solutions

Advanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 20, 9 March 2026.
Bioelectronic devices (e.g., e‐skins) heavily rely on polymers that at the end of their life cycle will generate microplastics. For research, a holistic approach to viewing the full impact of such devices cannot be overlooked. The potential for devices as sources for microplastics is raised, with mitigation strategies surrounding polysaccharide and ...

Optimization and Characterization of Aspirin‐ and Ibuprofen‐Loaded Lipid‐Based Nanoparticle Synthesis for Antibacterial Activity and Cytotoxic Effect

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 21, Issue 2, March/April 2026.
ABSTRACT Lipid‐based nanoparticles (LNPs) are favored for drug delivery because of their low toxicity, high biocompatibility, ability to self‐assemble into nanoparticles, and ability to enhance drug bioavailability, thereby improving drug release modulation and pharmacokinetics.

Studies of Liquid-liquid Separation in Fibre Coalescer [PDF]

, 2009
This thesis focuses on fibre coalescers whose efficiency is based on the surface properties/characteristics. They have the ability to preferentially wet or interact with one or more of the fluids to be separated. Thus, the interfacial phenomena governing

Sulfites Chemistry in Wines: From Reference Quantification Methods to More Sustainable Innovative Approaches

Comprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 2, March 2026.
ABSTRACT Sulfites are widely used as preservatives in winemaking due to their antioxidant, anti‐enzymatic, and antimicrobial properties. However, dietary sulfites have been linked to adverse reactions in sensitive individuals, especially those with asthma.

Leaf Litter Decomposition Along an Elevation Gradient Across Two Contrasting Forest Types: Implications for Future Climate Change

Ecological Research, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.
We investigated how leaf litter decomposition rates of two dominant tree species—Fagus crenata at lower elevations and Abies mariesii at higher elevations—vary along an elevational gradient in a mountain range. Within each species' range, decomposition proceeded faster at lower, warmer elevations, with A.
