Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.This study presents a novel silica‐based sol‐gel coating enhance with silica nanoparticles to protect glass surfaces. By reducing formulation acidity and improving resistance to environmental alteration—especially with 50 nm particles and double‐dip application—the method creates a gentle yet effective protective barrier.

Variability of jaw muscles in Tunisian street dogs and adaptation to skull shape
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract The impact of artificial selection on the masticatory apparatus of dogs has been poorly studied, and comparative data with dogs subjected to more natural constraints are lacking. This study explores the jaw musculature of Tunisian street dogs, which are largely free from the influence of breed‐specific selection.
