Mineral resources in life cycle impact assessment—defining the path forward
PurposeDespite 20 years of research, there remains no robust, globally agreed upon method—or even problem statement—for assessing mineral resource inputs in life cycle impact assessment (LCIA).

Inclusive Reactions by Swellable Clay Minerals. II
An organophilic-montmollironite (Or-Mon) was prepared by a cation-exchange reaction between sodium-montmollironite (Na-Mon) and dioctadecyldimethylammonium chloride (DODAC). The cation exchange amount of DO-DAC in the Or-Mon was 80 meq/100 g-Na-Mon. This corresponds to the cation exchange capacity (CEC) of Na-Mon. The basal spacing of the Or-Mon was 26.

A hydrogel for intra‐articular injection for the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is formulated and comprehensively studied. After administration, the hydrogel induces a metabolic reprogramming of immunometabolism of macrophages to trigger fatty acid oxidation subsequently inducing polarization of anti‐inflammatory M2 macrophages. This results in

Characteristics and carbon stable isotopes of fluids in the Southern Kerala granulites and their bearing on the source of CO2 [PDF]
Carbon dioxide-rich inclusions commonly occur in the banded charnockites and khondalites of southern Kerala as well as in the incipient charnockites formed by desiccation of gneisses along oriented zones.

Synthetic cells are engineered herein to respond to an external chemical messenger by the activation of intracellular catalysis. The chemical messenger molecules are catalytically generated by an extracellular enzyme or a mineral surface, whereas the intracellular catalysis emerges via direct enzyme activation or via protein refolding.

Carbonate alteration of ophiolitic rocks in the Arabian–Nubian Shield of Egypt: sources and compositions of the carbonating fluid and implications for the formation of Au deposits [PDF]
Ultramafic portions of ophiolitic fragments in the Arabian–Nubian Shield (ANS) show pervasive carbonate alteration forming various degrees of carbonated serpentinites and listvenitic rocks.

Biopolymers are sustainable, biodegradable alternatives to petroleum‐based plastics for food packaging. Its adoption is often limited by poor mechanical strength, barrier properties, and improved thermal stability through the incorporation of nanofillers.
