Capillarity in Interfacial Liquids and Marbles: Mechanisms, Properties, and Applications
The mechanics of capillary force in biological systems have critical roles in the formation of the intra- and inter-cellular structures, which may mediate the organization, morphogenesis, and homeostasis of biomolecular condensates.

This study explores the opposing effects of the mGluR2 and mGluR3 receptors on amyloid precursor protein processing. mGluR2 promotes amyloidogenic cleavage, while mGluR3 favors non‐amyloidogenic pathways. Using a brain‐penetrant nanobody as a mGluR2 positive allosteric modulator, the study uncovers how its chronic activation aggravates amyloid‐β burden

Multifunctional Liquid Marble Compound Lenses
Mosquito compound eyes are elaborate multifunctional hierarchical structures. The presence of ordered curved features spanning length scales of nanometers to millimeters provides the mosquito eye with a wide field of view, an infinite depth of field, and antifogging properties.

Carbon Dots: An Emerging Frontier for Green and Sustainable Civil Engineering Materials
Traditional civil engineering materials (CE materials) are usually involved with high‐energy consumption during manufacturing, significant maintenance costs, and substantial environmental impacts throughout their life cycles. The progress of nanotechnology is catalyzing a green and sustainable transformation within the field.

Switchable opening and closing of a liquid marble via ultrasonic levitation [PDF]
Liquid marbles have promising applications in the field of microreactors, where the opening and closing of their surfaces plays a central role. We have levitated liquid water marbles using an acoustic levitator and, thereby, achieved the manipulation of ...

Abstract Thousands of saline to hypersaline lakes exist across the Yilgarn Craton in Western Australia, representing potential Mars analogs with diverse and varying salinity, pH, and oxygen conditions that remain poorly constrained. Here, we report geochemical trends in lake waters that vary across wet‐dry cycles as well as with regional location and ...

ABSTRACT Gluten‐free regulations require analytical systems that can reliably measure gluten in wheat, rye, and barley, and, in some jurisdictions, in oats across diverse food ingredients and processed foods. Examples include baked goods, fermented products such as beer, and extruded snack foods, where processing can alter gluten extractability and ...

Characterization of mineral wools obtained from ornamental rock wastes
The study aimed to characterize the mineral wools obtained from wastes of the cutting step of marble and granite, in order to evaluate the possibility of their use on an industrial scale. Mixtures of marble and/or granite wastes were prepared in order to
