Seasonal Variation in Carbon Dynamics in the Lower Tocantins River: Influence of Discharge and Environmental Drivers

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tropical rivers play a key role in regional carbon budgets, yet greenhouse gas (GHG) dynamics in regulated systems remain poorly understood. This study investigates the seasonal variability of carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) concentrations, isotopic composition (δ13C), and river‐atmosphere fluxes in the lower Tocantins River, a ...

Steady‐State and Dynamic Behavior of Geometry‐Tunable Microfluidic Passive Flow Regulators

Small, EarlyView.
Passive microfluidic flow regulators exhibit geometry‐dependent dynamic behavior, where channel width governs the resistance–compliance interactions within the system. Narrow channels produce faster responses with higher bandwidth, while wider channels yield slower responses and stronger attenuation.

Multifunctional Nanodiamond Conjugate With a Tumor‐Specific EGFR‐Targeting Peptide and Photoactivated CO Release for Improved Therapeutic Efficacy in Head and Neck Cancers

Small, EarlyView.
A multifunctional nanodiamond conjugate carrying a blue light‐activated carbon monoxide‐releasing molecule and an EGFR‐targeting peptide enables efficient, targeted CO delivery in vitro and in vivo. Upon photoactivation, the particles induce cancer‐specific cytotoxicity and significantly suppress tumor growth and lymph node metastasis in a head and ...

Revealing Nafion‐Induced Copper Modifications by Combining In Situ and Ex Situ X‐Ray Absorption Spectroscopy

Small, EarlyView.
This work elucidates that Nafion alters Cu‐based CO2RR catalysts by promoting partial Cu dissolution and stabilizing Cu2+ species through coordination with sulfonate (‐SO3−) groups. Combining in situ Cu L‐edge with ex situ Cu K‐edge XAS measurements, the study highlights how Nafion primarily modifies the nanoparticle surface, while less oxidized Cu ...

Vapor‐Phase Detection of Perfluoroalkyl Acids using Amplifying Fluorescent Polymers

Small Methods, EarlyView.
Amplifying fluorescent fluorous polymers respond to PFAS vapors in under 5 s. The fluorophilic nature of the polymers results in strong binding and selectivity. ABSTRACT Perfluoroalkyl acids are a subclass of persistent toxic per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) whose volatility enables airborne exposure pathways that remain largely unmonitored ...

“I'm a Good Guy Who Deserves Better, Yet Nobody Wants to Give me Better”: The Accounts of Nice Guys

Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.
Within Western popular culture and online discourse, a “Nice Guy” is someone who enacts niceness for which they believe they are owed, deserving of, or entitled to something in return—especially the romantic or sexual attention of women. In this study, we examine the use of accounts in personal narratives told in an anonymous online discussion forum ...

Recovery of Pure PVC From Pharmaceutical Composite Packaging via Dissolution‐Based Recycling

Journal of Vinyl and Additive Technology, EarlyView.
Closed‐loop pathway for pharmaceutical blister waste via selective dissolution‐based recycling (DBR) enables separation of PVDC and aluminum, PVC recovery and reprocessing into films with 30 phr recycled content, and validation for thermoforming applications.
