PBTTT‐OR‐R, a C14‐alkoxy/alkyl‐PBTTT polymer derivative, is of substantial interest for optoelectronics due to its specific fullerene intercalation behavior and enhanced charge‐transfer absorption. Comparing this polymer with (S) and without (O) homocoupling defects reveals that PBTTT‐OR‐R(O) forms stable co‐crystals with PC61BM, while PBTTT‐OR‐R(S ...

IntelliBeeHive: An Automated Honey Bee, Pollen, and Varroa Destructor Monitoring System [PDF]
Utilizing computer vision and the latest technological advancements, in this study, we developed a honey bee monitoring system that aims to enhance our understanding of Colony Collapse Disorder, honey bee behavior, population decline, and overall hive health. The system is positioned at the hive entrance providing real-time data, enabling beekeepers to

Congruent and Oriented Crystallization of Mixed Sn–Pb Perovskite From the Nano‐ to Centimeter Scale
A Lewis‐base ligand trimethylthiourea preferentially coordinates to Sn2+ over Pb2+ and regulates the crystallization kinetics of FASn0.5Pb0.5SnI3. The resulting films consist of nearly stoichiometric unit cells and micrometer‐sized crystal grains exposing their (100) face.

Politics of evidence: Think tanks and the Academies Act
Abstract Previous research has identified political ideology as central in the landmark Academies Act (2010). This article further analyses how politics of evidence played its part in the policy process by focusing on long‐term structural changes and preferences among policymakers. The article draws on policymaker interviews after the reform, a mapping

Behavioral modulation of the coexistence between Apis melifera and Varroa destructor: A defense against colony colapse disorder? [PDF]
Colony Collapse Disorder has become a global problem for beekeepers and for the crops which depend on bee polination. Multiple factors are known to increase the risk of colony colapse, and the ectoparasitic mite Varroa destructor that parasitizes honey bees is among the main threats to colony health.

The salivary sheath protein myosin from SBPH is critical for the formation of the salivary sheath and feeding. However, myosin functions as a HAMP and triggered plant BAK1‐mediated PTI responses, which include the activation of calcium signaling pathways, MAPK phosphorylation, ROS bursts, and cell death, thereby triggering JA pathway.

Abstract Ocular allergies are becoming more prevalent as more airborne pollutants, irritants and microbes pervade our environment. Inflammatory and allergic mediators released by dendritic and mast cells within the conjunctiva cause allergic conjunctivitis (AC), a prevalent ocular surface disorder that affects >40% of the world's human population on a ...
