Food Chemistry International, EarlyView.Sanguinarine, a toxic alkaloid present in argemone, can lead to epidemic dropsy or chronic diseases through DNA intercalation and immune system suppression. Regulatory efforts face challenges due to economic motivations for adulteration as well as technical, social, and infrastructure barriers.

International Insolvency Review, EarlyView.Abstract This paper conducts a comparative legal analysis of corporate restructuring frameworks in England and Bhutan, examining their capacity to integrate climate variability considerations and promote sustainable business practices. It discusses the procedural mechanisms for restructuring financially distressed enterprises available under the law of

Existence of vacuum wormholes in Einsteinian cubic gravity
Journal of High Energy PhysicsWormhole solutions in gravitational theories typically require exotic matter. Here we present a wormhole solution to the field equations of Einsteinian Cubic Gravity — a phenomenological competitor to general relativity that includes terms cubic in the ...

The Bazaar as a Model for Knowledge Work
Knowledge and Process Management, EarlyView.ABSTRACT This paper presents fieldwork that extends existing metaphors of knowledge work as a process shaped by hierarchical or market forces. A qualitative, ethnographic study of six knowledge‐intensive businesses in two countries identifies striking parallels with the Middle Eastern bazaar in contrast to Western impersonal markets and hierarchies. We

The Structure and Interpretation of Cosmology [PDF]
, 2003 The purpose of this paper is to review, clarify, and critically analyse modern mathematical cosmology. The emphasis is upon the mathematical structures involved, rather than numerical computations.

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.Liquid crystal elastomer (LCE) filaments are fabricated through extrusion with in‐process UV curing, enabling controlled flow alignment and network locking of mesogens. The resulting structure responds to thermal or optical stimuli, inducing molecular reorientation and macroscopic contraction.

If spacetime is a physical object, it is conceivable that it loses its integrity or is destroyed in some way as a continuum in an abrupt process initiated in spacetime itself.

Exploiting Device Deformability for Fluid and Particle Manipulation
Small, EarlyView.Deformable devices enable fluid and particle manipulation modes that are inaccessible to rigid platforms. This review examines soft materials and architectures that translate controlled deformation into microscale fluid operations such as pumping, valving, mixing, and particle handling.

, 2008 We consider large-N multi-matrix models whose action closely mimics that of Yang-Mills theory, including gauge-fixing and ghost terms. We show that the factorized Schwinger-Dyson loop equations, expressed in terms of the generating series of gluon and ...

Liquid Crystal Polymers as Intrinsically Magnetic and Programmable Soft Materials for Microrobotics
Small, EarlyView.Liquid crystal polymers (LCPs) are proposed as intrinsically magnetic, programmable, soft materials for microrobotics. Magnetic torque‐driven manipulation of LCP microobjects is achieved and characterized in terms of the step‐out frequency, reaching ∼0.6 Hz in a ∼250 mT magnetic field. The orientation of LCP microobjects in the magnetic field and their
