Fructan biosynthesis in Lolium perenne : tissue, cultivar and temperature effects on gene expression and protein accumulation profiles : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Plant Biology at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Cultivars of Lolium perenne with high concentrations of water soluble carbohydrates (WSCs) offer opportunities to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions (nitrous oxides) from grazed pastures and improve meat and milk production in livestock.

Shape‐Morphing Nanoengineered Hydrogel Ribbons as Hemostats
This study introduces a self‐assembling, shape‐morphing nanoengineered hydrogel ribbon system that rapidly forms porous aggregates in situ for efficient hemostasis in trauma and surgical applications. Abstract Rapid and effective hemorrhage control remains a major challenge in trauma and surgical care, particularly for complex or noncompressible wounds.

A transparent, laser‐microscribed glass platform enables cancer diagnosis within 1 h—much faster than histology, which takes days, and free from the chemical or contrast risks of MRI or CT scans. The antibody‐functionalized rough glass surface captures viable cancer cells directly from suspension, allowing instant optical readout and offering a rapid ...

Miracle Molecules of our Age: Ethylenediaminetetraacetic Acid
In his outstanding book, Power Aging (1), Gary Null spends much of the early part of the volume discussing the numerous man-made chemicals and components that constitute a major part of the problems with pollution and damage to human health. It is almost as though anything chemical which we manufacture and use in our world can damage us.

Effect of pH on ciprofloxacin ozonation in hospital WWTP effluent [PDF]
A bubble column was used for ozonation of the quinolone antibiotic ciprofloxacin and the effect of pH was tested. Degradation at pH 7 increased the ciprofloxacin half life time to 29.1 min compared to pH 3 (26.8 min) and pH 10 (18.7 min), possibly due to

A UV‐triggered injectable dual‐network hydrogel is reported as the first application of bletilla striata polysaccharide (BSP) in osteochondral repair. By integrating methacrylamide‐modified BSP and nitrobenzaldehyde‐functionalized hyaluronic acid, the system achieves immunomodulation, mechanical reinforcement, and dynamic tissue adhesion, thereby ...

Understanding aspects of alginate biosynthesis and regulation by Pseudomonas aeruginosa : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Microbiology at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
Alginate is a medically and industrially important polymer produced by seaweeds and certain bacteria. The bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa over-produces alginate during cystic fibrosis lung infections, forming biofilms, making the infection difficult to ...
