Parental Exposure to Nanoplastics and Graphene Oxide Induces Transgenerational Toxicity in Caenorhabditis elegans

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental pollution by emerging contaminants such as nanoplastics (NPs) and graphene oxide (GO) represents a growing threat to global health and ecosystems. This study investigated the effects of parental exposure, both isolated and combined, to 100 μg/L NPs (polystyrene, spherical, 100 nm) and 100 mg/L GO, using Caenorhabditis elegans as ...

Thermo-mechanical compatibility of CFRP versus steel reinforcement for concrete at high temperature [PDF]

, 2014
Optimization of the design of concrete structures has become a driver for the use of nonconventional reinforcing materials. One example of this is the emerging use of non-corrosive, highstrength, and lightweight carbon fibre reinforced polymer (CFRP ...

Influence of FRP anchors on FRP-to-concrete bonder interfaces

, 2015
Existing reinforced concrete (RC) structural members such as beams, columns and joints can be strengthened and repaired with externally bonded high-strength and light-weight fibre-reinforced polymer (FRP) composites. The effectiveness of such strengthening can, however, be limited by premature debonding of the FRP at strains well below the strain ...

Modular Polymers With Tuneable Charge and Amphiphilicity for Effective Antimicrobial Photodynamic Therapy

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
A modular dual‐strategy platform combining free radical copolymerisation and post‐polymerisation modification yields a library of ruthenium‐functionalised polymers for antimicrobial photodynamic therapy. Tuneable composition and net charge govern activity against multidrug‐resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilms and Staphylococcus aureus under ...

Breathe, Eat, Talk: Three Essential Ingredients to Quality‐of‐Life Outcomes in Movement Disorders

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Breathing, eating, and talking (BET) impairments are common yet frequently underrecognized features of movement disorders. Deficits in respiration, swallowing, voice, and speech may emerge early in the course of a disease, adversely affecting safety, participation, and quality of life.

Experimental Comparative Analysis of Hole‐Making Strategies and Cutting Parameters on Flexural Properties and Induced Delamination in S2 Glass and Basalt Fiber‐Reinforced Polymers

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Hole‐making strategy and machining parameters influence delamination and hole quality in S2‐glass and basalt FRP composites, which subsequently affet flexural performance. Improved hole integrity leads to enhanced structural performance during three‐point bending.
