Micro-CT Characterization of Human Trabecular Bone in Osteogenesis Imperfecta [PDF]
Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) is a genetic syndrome affecting collagen synthesis and assembly. Its symptoms vary widely but commonly include bone fragility, reduced stature, and bone deformity.

General formulas for drag coefficient and settling velocity of sphere based on theoretical law
The settlement of particles is of great importance in many areas. The accurate determination of drag coefficient and settling velocity in wide Reynolds number (Re) range remains a problem.

Chemically specifi C multiscale modeling of clay-polymer nanocomposites reveals intercalation dynamics, tactoid self-assembly and emergent materials properties [PDF]
A quantitative description is presented of the dynamical process of polymer intercalation into clay tactoids and the ensuing aggregation of polymerentangled tactoids into larger structures, obtaining various characteristics of these nanocomposites ...

Excess Ca2+ ions activate the Calcium‐Sensing Receptor (CaSR), which subsequently drives the uptake of excess inorganic phosphate (Pi) via the Pi transporter (Pit−1) in chondrocytes. This mechanism causes a toxic increase in intracellular Pi concentration, ultimately leading to chondrocyte apoptosis and pathological mineralization. Excess extracellular

Aged human bmMSCs are seeded in the scaffold. Osteoblastic induction can slightly increase cell's bone‐forming activity to produce bone‐like tissues, shown as the sporadic xylenol orange‐stained spots (the lower left image). Notably, pioglitazone plus EGCG co‐treatment dramatically increases cell's bone‐forming activity and bone‐like tissue production (

Technological Typomorphic Associations in Caustobiolites and Methods of Their Extraction
Heavy oil is considered as a multipurpose complex mineral, and the processing of heavy oils as a “complex problem”, aimed both at increasing the yield of light fractions and “transport” ability of oil, and at extracting metals from heavy asphaltene ...

Assessment of the potential carbon footprint of engineered processes for the mineral carbonation of PGM tailings [PDF]
Abstract The engineered sequestration of carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions through mineral carbonation typically requires energy intensive conditions and chemical reagents to accelerate the naturally slow reaction processes. In order to be an effective carbon dioxide mitigation strategy, engineered mineral carbonation processes have to result in a net ...

Enzymatic degradation of biopolymers in amorphous and molten states: mechanisms and applications
This review explains how polymer morphology and thermal state shape enzymatic degradation pathways, comparing amorphous and molten biopolymer structures. By integrating structure–reactivity principles with insights from thermodynamics and enzyme engineering, it highlights mechanisms that enable efficient polymer breakdown.
