Mechanistic Insights and Catalytic Efficiency of a 2,2'-Bipyridine-Coordinated Peroxidovanadium Complex as a Haloperoxidase Biomimetic. [PDF]
A peroxidovanadium(V) complex mimics vanadium haloperoxidases for eco‐friendly halogenation of organic substrates. Density functional theory studies reveal two major reaction pathways for iodide/bromide oxidation. The catalyst offers high‐yield bromination/iodination of 8‐hydroxyquinoline (73/86%) under mild conditions (30 °C, pH 5.8), and it also ...

The Evolution of Skull Shape in Boana faber Clade: Unraveling Heterochrony's Influence. [PDF]
The skull shape evolution of the Boana faber clade demonstrates a specific skull shape for each species, ontogenetic and evolutionary allometries, and a peramorphic tendency within the clade. ABSTRACT Variation in shape and size within a lineage, driven by developmental processes, plays a key role in diversification.

Competition dynamics in long‐term propagations of Schizosaccharomyces pombe strain communities
In this study, we have propagated yeast communities of 2, 3, 4, and 5 strains for about 400 generations and asked which fitness‐related phenotypes—maximum growth rate or relative competitive fitness—would better predict the outcome of the focal strain during the propagations.

The Food–Materials Nexus: Next Generation Bioplastics and Advanced Materials from Agri‐Food Residues
The state‐of‐the‐art strategies to upcycle agri‐food losses and wastes (FLW) into advanced materials are reviewed. The right accent is put on the feasible means of effectively deconstructing and reassembling, synthesizing, or engineering FLW‐derived monomeric, polymeric, and colloidal building blocks targeting multifunctional, sustainable bioplastics ...

Experimental investigation of a small‐scale reactor with processed bio‐fuel pellets
Abstract A developing small‐scale reactor was examined using the principles of thermal engineering design. The thermodynamic state of the system, psychrometry, and gas dynamics of the moist gas were considered in order to evaluate the quality of the end use.

The material characterisation of industrial heritage was approached by the analytical study of three energy generators coatings, from the 20th‐century powerplant at Levada de Tomar, Portugal. μRaman spectrometry, μXRF, and SEM‐EDS enabled the identification of pigments' paint coatings, revealing complex paint systems for the oldest equipment (1924) and

Quantification of the least limiting water range in an oxisol using two methodological strategies
The least limiting water range (LLWR) has been used as an indicator of soil physical quality as it represents, in a single parameter, the soil physical properties directly linked to plant growth, with the exception of temperature. The usual procedure for

Abstract Elves are a class of transient luminous events, with a radial extent typically greater than 250 km, that occur in the lower ionosphere above strong electrical storms. We report the observation of 1,598 elves, from 2014 to 2016, recorded with unprecedented time resolution (100 ns) using the fluorescence detector (FD) of the Pierre Auger Cosmic ...
