Chemically‐Linked Heterostructures of Palladium Nanosheets and 2H‐MoS2

Small, EarlyView.
The photoresponse of MoS2 devices is extended to the near‐infrared region (up to 1700 nm) through chemical connection to Pd nanosheets (PdNS). A maleimide is used for covalent connection to MoS2, and a phenyl bromide moiety for linkage to the PdNS. In the absence of the chemical linker, van der Waals heterostructures show poorer enhancement of the ...

The Gold‐Maker of Animal Oil and Prussian Blue Fame — The Chemical and Medicinal Science Philosophy of Johann Conrad Dippel

The Chemical Record, EarlyView.
The radical Pietist Johann Conrad Dippel was a self‐proclaimed adept – a maker of gold and the philosophers’ stone. He was also a magister of theology, a doctor of medicine, and a self‐taught chemist, who coinvented the pigment Prussian Blue together with Johann von Diesbach, became known for his animal pyrolysis oil, his wonder‐wound balm, his ...

Ticks and Fleas Infestation on East Hedgehogs (Erinaceus concolor) in Van Province, Eastern Region of Turkey

Journal of Arthropod-Borne Diseases, 2016
Background: Ixodid ticks (Acari: İxodidae) and fleas (Siphonaptera) are the major vectors of pathogens threatening animals and human healths. The aim of our study was to detect the infestation rates of East Hedgehogs (Erinaceus concolor) with ticks and ...

The evolution of sensitive periods beyond early ontogeny: Bridging theory and data

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Sensitive periods, in which experiences have a large impact on phenotypic development, are most common early in ontogeny. Yet, they may also occur at later ontogenetic stages, such as adolescence.

Quantifying phenotypic plasticity: A call for consistency

Functional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The interest of evolutionary, functional and applied ecologists in the study of phenotypic plasticity has grown considerably in recent decades. From being considered irrelevant in the mid‐20th century, phenotypic plasticity is now considered ubiquitous and essential for

Urban developmental environments alter tadpole phenotypes depending on origin

Journal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
Urbanisation has rapidly altered the ecological and evolutionary contexts for many species. Using a reciprocal transplant experiment with frog larvae, we find that urban environments can alter morphological, developmental and behavioural traits at both ecological and evolutionary scales.

‘Evangelical Gitanos are a good catch’: masculinity, churches, and roneos★

Journal of the Royal Anthropological Institute, EarlyView.
This article explores Christian principles, imagery, and ideas shaping the (re)making of masculine ideals, behaviour, and identities among Pentecostal Gitanos in Spain. Scholarship on Pentecostal masculinities emphasizes that in cultural settings dominated by ‘macho’ and other chauvinistic principles, men find it challenging to comply with Pentecostal ...

Economic Decline and Ecological Impact: What Future for European Fur Farming? Déclin économique et impact écologique : quel avenir pour l’élevage d'animaux à fourrure en Europe ? Wirtschaftlicher Niedergang und ökologische Auswirkungen: Was bringt die Zukunft für die europäische Pelztierzucht?

EuroChoices, EarlyView.
Summary The economic, ecological and animal welfare impacts of fur farming in the European Union have been debated for decades, culminating in proposals for an EU‐wide ban on keeping animals solely for fur production. The Covid‐19 pandemic further intensified these discussions, particularly within individual Member States.

Infection by Rickettsia felis in Ctenocephalides felis felis Fleas from North of Colombia

Journal of Arthropod-Borne Diseases, 2019
Background: Rickettsia felis is an emergent Rickettsial agent whose main vector is Ctenocephalides felis, but ticks, mites and lice are also infected. We aimed to search for molecular evidence of Rickettsia spp.

Epidemiological Dynamics of a Visually Apparent Disease: Camera Trapping and Machine‐Learning Applied to Rumpwear in the Common Brushtail Possum

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Visually apparent diseases are valuable for investigating and monitoring the occurrence and prevalence of pathogens in wildlife populations through passive monitoring methods like camera trapping. Rumpwear is characterized by visible signs of hair breakage and damage on the lumbosacral region of common brushtail possums.
