From mainland to islands: the evolution of resistance and tolerance to herbivory in long‐lived oaks

open access: yesOikos, EarlyView.
Island biogeography theory predicts that island plants should exhibit reduced defences compared with their mainland relatives due to relaxed herbivory pressure. However, growing empirical evidence challenges this prediction, revealing substantial variation among systems, plant lineages and defence types.

Electrospun fibrous sorbents for the removal of uranium and americium from aqueous media

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
Polymethacrylate‐based electrospun microfibers with tertiary amino functionalities are evaluated as adsorbents for U‐232 and Am‐241 in both simplified and complex (seawater) water matrices, highlighting their ability for efficient actinide removal. Abstract Polymethacrylate‐based electrospun microfibers containing tertiary amino functionalities were ...

Polymer structure of commercial hydrolyzable tannins by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ ionization-time-of-flight mass spectrometry

open access: yes, 2009
The structures of six commercial hydrolyzable tannins, chestnut, oak, tara, sumach, chinese gall, and turkey gall tannins have been examined by matrixassisted laser desorption/ionization-time-of-flight (MALDI-TOF) mass spectrometry.

Catechins and Their Effect on the Gut Microbiome in Health and Cancer

open access: yesPhytotherapy Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Catechins are a group of flavonoids found primarily in green tea, fruits, and berries; they play a significant role in the modulation of the gut microbiota, thereby having an impact on gut health and cancer prevention. Owing to their low bioavailability, catechins are transformed by the gut microbiota into various bioactive metabolites such as

Ultra‐Tough Hybrid Supramolecular Gelatin Hydrogels

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Tannic acid‐mediated coacervation compacts gelatin into a dense supramolecular network while generating an acidic microenvironment that activates pre‐embedded bis‐oxazoline crosslinkers. The resulting hybrid hydrogel combines covalent stabilization with reversible energy dissipation, producing high strength, extreme extensibility, substantial toughness,

Powdered Hide Model for Vegetable Tanning II: Hydrolyzable Tanni [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Vegetable tannages employ both condensed and hydrolyzable tannins. As part of our exploration of tanning mechanisms, we reported previously on interactions of the condensed tannin, quebracho, with powdered hide.

Plant‐derived nanovesicles as potential drug delivery systems for topical use: Emerging applications in dermatology and cosmetology

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Plant‐derived nanovesicles (PDNVs) are naturally secreted by fruit, vegetables, seeds, leaves and other natural sources. Used as drug delivery systems, they can combine intrinsic therapeutic activity, enhanced skin permeation and cargo‐carrying capacity, suitable for dermatological and cosmetic applications including hydration, antioxidant/anti ...
