Bottom‐Up Ice Growth Geometry Attenuates Shear Stress and Improves the Cryopreservation of Hematopoietic Stem/Progenitor Cells Under Low DMSO Concentrations

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Studies on cell cryopreservation have been limited by the complexity of the freezing process and challenges on controlling ice formation, managing cooling rates, and optimizing cryoprotectant concentrations. The objective of this study is to evaluate the impact of bottom‐up and conventional radial freezing on the viability of mammalian cells ...

The myth of the metabolic baseline: sleep–wake cycles undermine a foundational assumption in organismal biology

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Basal and standard metabolic rate (BMR and SMR) are cornerstones of physiological ecology and are assumed to be relatively fixed intrinsic properties of organisms that represent the minimum energy required to sustain life. However, this assumption is conceptually flawed. Many core maintenance processes underlying SMR are temporally partitioned

Efficacy of Drying Maize Seeds Using Zeolite Beads Under Hermetic Storage Conditions

open access: yesCereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Sun drying of seeds prior to storage is a common practice in Sub‐Saharan Africa (SSA), but this method is unpredictable, especially during rainy seasons. Seed longevity and survival in storage depend on seed moisture content (MC); hence, controlling MC in storage is essential.

Metasurface Enhanced Photothermal Cement Foam for Robust and High‐Throughput Seawater Desalination

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
Schematic of 3D metasurface‐enhanced cement foam for robust and high‐throughput seawater desalination. This study presents a cement‐based solar evaporator (CSE) fabricated in one step via viscoelastic lithography with simple negative pressure. In addition to boosting solar‐to‐vapor conversion efficiency via excellent light‐harvesting capacity, the ...

Mid‐Infrared Spectroscopy and Machine Learning for Chlorogenic Acid Quantification in Coffee

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
Chlorogenic acid (CGA) concentration in coffee was predicted using mid‐infrared (MIR) spectroscopy and a machine learning approach. Forty‐four roasting stages (140–220 °C) plus a green coffee control were analyzed. A multilayer perceptron regressor, trained on preprocessed MIR data, outperformed traditional peak analysis, enabling accurate and ...

A Short‐Cut Design Approach to Evaluate Reboiler Designs in Vapor Recompression Scenarios

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
A short‐cut model framework that incorporates mechanical vapor recompression (MVR) requirements into reboiler design is presented, which is particularly beneficial during early process development with limited data or initial feasibility assessments.

Integrated and closed‐loop biorefinery strategies for efficient waste valorization and biofuel production

open access: yesThe Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
Abstract Advancements in biofuel production technologies are essential for reducing global dependence on fossil fuels and addressing their overexploitation. Many valuable components of biomass, such as cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin, remain underused in traditional biorefineries, which typically rely on a single feedstock to produce a primary ...
