Kinetics of anionic polymerization of β‐myrcene in hydrocarbon solvents

Polymer International, EarlyView.
The process of anionic polymerization of β‐myrcene in hydrocarbon solvents was examined by kinetic studies and quantum chemical calculations. Abstract The kinetics of anionic polymerization of β‐myrcene initiated by sec‐butyllithium were examined in saturated and unsaturated hydrocarbon solvents, i.e. cyclohexane, cyclohexene, 4‐vinylcyclohexene and dl‐

Facile Approach to Modulating Stereochemistry in Ring‐Opening Metathesis Polymerization of Cyclooctadiene

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
The stereochemistry of polybutadiene made by ring‐opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) evolves both during and after polymerization, as secondary metathesis shifts cis‐rich kinetic products toward trans‐rich equilibrium compositions. By tuning catalyst identity, additives, temperature, and reaction time, polybutadienes with 28%–80% trans content ...

Plants, people and their shared heritage: A comparative medicinal and wild food ethnobotany of Albanians, Greeks and Aromanians living in the Gjirokaster area, southern Albania

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Traditional knowledge about wild plants connects people to nature and sustains both cultural identity and biodiversity. This study explores how cultural exchange among Albanians, Greeks and Aromanians in southern Albania shapes the use and naming of medicinal and food plants.

Genomic insights into the local adaptation of spontaneous olive trees in the Mediterranean Basin highlight the need for conservation planning in the face of global change

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The Mediterranean Basin, a major biodiversity hotspot, is highly vulnerable to climate and global changes. Wild olive trees form an essential part of this landscape and hold strong ecological, cultural and socio‐economic significance. By examining how these trees responded to past climatic conditions, this study shows adaptation of olive trees to local

An Enhanced Soft‐Containing Gripper for Pick‐And‐Place of Oyster Products at Extreme Handling Speed

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Soft robotic grippers have been developed for high‐speed handling of soft, fragile foods. For example, our previously designed soft‐containing gripper has been implemented on food production lines. However, existing soft robotic grippers remain inadequate for food pick‐and‐place tasks at extreme handling speeds (e.g., > 70 pcs/min).

Osmotic Remodeling of Extracellular Vesicles for Precision Nanomedicine

Small, EarlyView.
Hypotonic lysis in bidistilled water is used to remodel B lymphocyte–derived extracellular vesicles into cargo‐depleted, structurally preserved nanovesicles. The process reduces intraluminal proteins and nucleic acids, reshapes membrane composition, and enhances tumor‐cell uptake in vitro, while allowing proof‐of‐concept reloading with exogenous agents,
