The Impact of Hydration on Metabolic Outcomes: From Arginine-Vasopressin Signaling to Clinical Implications

open access: yesMedicina
Arginine-vasopressin peptide (AVP) plays a critical role in water balance and osmoregulation. However, emerging evidence suggests that AVP’s actions may expand beyond its traditional role, significantly influencing metabolic regulation, including glucose

Harry Hess and sea-floor spreading [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
Harry Hess's hypothesis of sea-floor spreading brought together his long-standing interests in island arcs, oceanic topography, and the oceanic crust. The one unique feature of Hess's hypothesis was the origin of the oceanic crust as a hydration rind on ...

Time-domain THz spectroscopy reveals coupled protein-hydration dielectric response in solutions of native and fibrils of human lyso-zyme

open access: yes, 2017
Here we reveal details of the interaction between human lysozyme proteins, both native and fibrils, and their water environment by intense terahertz time domain spectroscopy.

Setting control of completely recyclable concrete with slag and aluminate cements [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
A completely recyclable concrete (CRC) is designed to have a chemical composition equivalent to the one of general raw materials for cement production. By doing so, this CRC can be used at the end of its service life in cement manufacturing without the ...

Engineering Porous Hollow Metal‐Poly(Heptazine Imide) Spheres: An Optimized Synthetic Strategy for Controlling Surface, Morphology, and Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Hollow poly(heptazine imide) spheres are prepared through a novel approach that integrates hard templating with ionothermal synthesis. This method enables precise control over surface area, pore volume, hydrophilicity, light absorption, band position, and metal composition. These tunable properties facilitate the customized design of semiconductors for

Evaluating water-induced wellbore instability in shale formations: a comparative analysis of transversely isotropic strength criteria

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
This study addresses wellbore instability in shale formations by conducting mechanical experiments on bedded shale samples with varying hydration times. We fitted experimental data using two anisotropic strength criteria to determine the shale’s strength

Observation of Fragile-to-Strong Dynamic Crossover in Protein Hydration Water

open access: yes, 2006
At low temperatures proteins exist in a glassy state, a state which has no conformational flexibility and shows no biological functions. In a hydrated protein, at and above 220 K, this flexibility is restored and the protein is able to sample more ...

Micropatterned Biphasic Printed Electrodes for High‐Fidelity on‐Skin Bioelectronics

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Micropatterned biphasic printed electrodes achieve unprecedented skin conformity and low impedance by combining liquid‐metal droplets with microstructured 3D lattices. This scalable approach enables high‐fidelity detection of ECG, EMG, and EEG signals, including alpha rhythms from the forehead, with long‐term comfort and stability.

Influence of the synergy between mineral additions and Portland cement in the physical-mechanical properties of ternary binders

open access: yesMateriales de Construccion, 2016
The paper deals with the synergistic effect of mineral additions on the physical-mechanical performance of ternary blends prepared with different Portland cements (PC). The effect in setting and heat flow release is also analyzed.

Advanced synchrotron studies of ye'elimite-based cement pastes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Synchrotron characterization techniques [1] are being used to study Portland-based cements and recently also CSA and related cements. A key property of these techniques is that they do not require sample preparation, so the microstructures of the pastes ...
