Comparative analysis of fungal microbiomes in Korean and Chinese chili pepper powders

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Chili pepper powder plays a crucial role in kimchi fermentation; however, its use may result in fungal contamination. Therefore, analyzing its mycobiome is vital to maintain quality control standards. In this study, we used internal transcribed spacer (ITS)2 amplicon sequencing to compare fungal communities in commercially available

Posterior cruciate ligament involvement leads to inferior outcomes in multiligament knee injuries involving the medial collateral ligament: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Multiligament knee injuries (MLKIs) involving the medial collateral ligament (MCL) present unique challenges in surgical management and postoperative rehabilitation. This systematic review and meta‐analysis aimed to evaluate postoperative patient‐reported outcomes in patients with MCL‐involved MLKIs, with a minimum follow‐up of 2 years.

Dual Pathways of Loneliness in the Marketplace: Emotional Attachment, Empowerment, and Evaluations of Brand Warmth and Brand Competence

Psychology &Marketing, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Loneliness shapes consumer behavior, yet whether it increases preference for warm or competent brands remains unresolved. We argue that this question cannot be answered without distinguishing who is perceived to be lonely. Individual loneliness, which is a person's subjective experience of social disconnection, activates agency‐restoration ...

Bio‐Inspired, Zwitterionic Copolymers with Amphiphilic Character

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Zwitterionic copolymers based on arginine‐derived monomers are produced by xanthate‐supported photo‐iniferter reversible‐addition‐fragmentation chain‐transfer polymerization. Experiments in relevant conditions show that the designed (co)polymers hardly interact with biologically relevant proteins and enzymes such as bovine serum albumine (BSA), fetal ...

Chain‐End Grafting of RAFT Polyelectrolyte Macroligands to Stabilize Near‐Infrared‐Emitting Gold Nanoclusters

Macromolecular Rapid Communications, EarlyView.
Surface‐functionalized gold nanoclusters (AuNCs) are synthesized in situ by chain‐end grafting of RAFT polyelectrolytes at room temperature directly in water. It leads to highly stable polymer‐AuNCs nanohybrids emitting near‐infrared photoluminescence with µs lifetimes. ABSTRACT With their photoluminescence properties, gold nanoclusters (AuNCs, d<2 nm)

Ex Vivo LRRK2 Activation in Asian G2385R and R1628P Variant Carriers and Idiopathic Parkinson's Disease

Movement Disorders, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Leucine‐rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) kinase inhibition is a promising therapeutic strategy for Parkinson's disease (PD), but the functional impact of Asian‐prevalent LRRK2 p.G2385R and p.R1628P variants remains unclear. Robust patient stratification and target engagement markers are needed for global LRRK2‐targeted trials ...

Workplace Incivility and Nurses' Health: The Mediating Role of Positive and Negative Affect

Research in Nursing &Health, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nurses are particularly vulnerable to workplace incivility, a form of deviant behavior that can evolve into severe workplace mistreatment. Although the psychological and organizational consequences of incivility have been documented, its impact on health, particularly through emotional pathways, remains unclear.

When invasions go unnoticed: Public perception of the freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii in Europe

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Biological invasions are a major driver of biodiversity loss, yet inconspicuous or “cryptic” species often escape detection and public awareness, limiting management responses. We investigated the freshwater jellyfish Craspedacusta sowerbii, likely native to China and now present on six continents, through a 22‐month multilingual online survey

Effects of Polyamide‐6 Bulk Plasma Treatment on Morphology, Crystallinity and Mechanical Properties of Microfibrillar Composites

Polymer Composites, EarlyView.
Microfibrillar composite containing highly oriented, plasma‐treated PA6 microfibrils embedded within the polymer matrix. ABSTRACT Plasma treatment is often used to alter chemical surface characteristics of fibers or polymers, improving dispersion of components and interfacial adhesion between incompatible constituents in composites.

An Inimer Approach Based on Photo Iniferter RAFT Polymerization Toward One‐Pot Bottlebrush Copolymers Featuring Grafts From Less Activated Monomers

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
We present a stepwise one‐pot synthesis of bottlebrush copolymers using the inimer approach for less activated monomers (LAMs). Under the irradiation of wavelength 1 (λ1), an acrylamide‐based inimer was polymerized to create a backbone with active sites for grafting.
