Chitin‐Derived Carbon‐Metal Functional Materials
Functional carbon materials are synthesized from combination of biopolymer (chitin) and iron precursors. The resultant material exhibits superior surface area and adsorptive properties compared to carbon materials synthesized directly from pure chitin.

Rainforests are renowned as storehouses of terrestrial biodiversity, but many of the more astounding species are apparent only after the closest scrutiny. Here are a few of the roughly 2000 species of mite (Arachnida: Acari) that can be found in the subtropical rainforests of Lamington National Park in south-east Queensland, AustraliaFigure 1Figure 1 ...

A hygrothermal model for predicting house dust mite response to environmental conditions in dwellings [PDF]
House-dust mite antigens are a major contributor to allergic sensitisation. Since temperature and humidity are crucial to house-dust mite physiology, there is considerable interest in reducing mite populations by controlling the indoor environment.

Application of a transient hygrothermal population model for house dust mites in beds: assessment of control strategies in UK buildings [PDF]
This article discusses the capabilities and the application of an innovative combined hygrothermal and population model to assess the impact of building design and occupant behaviour on house dust mite populations in a mattress. The combined model is the

Vertical organic electrochemical transistors (vOECTs) are limited in speed by ion‐impermeable metal electrodes that slow ion injection. Using ion‐permeable PBFDO top electrodes allows direct vertical ion injection into BBL channels, achieving high current densities (>400 A cm−2), large on/off ratios (>106), and ultrafast switching in 28 µs. This sets a

The two-spotted spider mite Tetranychus urticae Koch, the date palm dust mite Oligonychus afrasiaticus (McGregor), and the citrus brown mite Eutetranychus orientalis (Klein) of family Tetranychidae are key pests of fruit trees, field crops, and ...

Anion‐exchange doping of conjugated polymers is an effective way to achieve high conductivities. Here, we report over 2000 S cm−1 electrical conductivity for doped P(g3BTTT). In addition, we show that P(g3BTTT) sustains exceptionally high doping levels without any drop in the charge mobility.

Preventing introduction and spread of Dermanyssus gallinae in poultry facilities using the HACCP method [PDF]
Preventing the establishment of ectoparasitic poultry red mite (Dermanyssus gallinae) populations is key in ensuring welfare and egg production of laying hens and absence of allergic reactions of workers in poultry facilities.

Nanomaterials offer dual applications in allergy management. For diagnosis, nanomaterials enhance analytical sensitivity and improve detection in specific IgE and functional assays such as the basophil activation test (BAT). For allergen‐specific immunotherapy, nanomaterials enable allergen masking and controlled release, and effectively modulate the ...
