The human gut microbiome across the life course
Despite significant individual variation and continuous change throughout life, the human gut microbiome follows some life stage‐specific trends. This article provides a brief overview of how gut microbiome composition shifts across different phases of life. Created in BioRender. Özkurt, E. (2026) https://BioRender.com/8q4nrnc.

Degradation mechanism of the von Willebrand factor A2 domain by nattokinase
Nattokinase, a natto‐derived protease, exhibits potent antithrombotic effects. This study demonstrates that nattokinase directly cleaves the von Willebrand factor (vWF) A2 domain in vitro. Unlike the native regulator ADAMTS13, nattokinase degrades folded vWF independently of shear stress.

Description of Fatigue Crack Growth under Modes II, III and II+III in Terms of J-integral
AbstractMode II and mode III fatigue crack growth rates and the related intrinsic stress intensity factor range thresholds ΔKIIeff,th and ΔKIIIeff,th were for a long time expected to be equal. However, there are many theoretical and experimental indications of a slower crack growth rate and a higher threshold for mode III than that for mode II for ...

A new test methodology based on structural resonance for mode I fatigue delamination growth in an unidirectional composite [PDF]
A specific device has been set up to test by vibration resonance the mode I fatigue delamination growth onset of composite laminates. This test system, based on the DCB test specimen, is a mass-spring-specimen dynamic system designed to resonate.

We present robust protocols for the preparation of supported lipid bilayers (SLBs) incorporating either Salmonella smooth LPS or outer membrane vesicles (OMVs). We use a combination of quartz crystal microbalance with dissipation (QCM‐D) and fluorescence microscopy to both characterize the SLBs of various compositions and to probe their interactions ...

Effects of Multi-Crack Initiation in High-Speed Railway Wheel Subsurface on Tread Peeling Lifetime
The evolution characteristics of multi-source-fatigue-crack propagation in the subsurface of a high-speed wheel’s tread and its influence on tread peeling life are the basis for accurately evaluating wheel service lifetime.
