Silicon‐Based Anodes for Sulfide Solid‐State Batteries: Failure Mechanisms and Multiscale Design Strategies

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Silicon anodes in sulfide SSBs face coupled electrochemo‐mechanical failure by interface instability. This review examined recent advances and proposed mitigation strategies via material‐, electrode/interface‐, and cell‐level‐ engineering. We further evaluate scalable synthesis of sulfide SEs.

Routing Optimization of Cable‐Driven Octopus‐Inspired Manipulators With Minimal Actuation via Genetic Algorithm and Finite Element Method

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
Soft robotic arms are promising for gentle grasping but often rely on bulky actuation systems. This work presents a computational design framework that optimizes tendon number and routing to achieve target grasps with fewer actuators. Validated on an octopus‐inspired underwater arm, the approach enables efficient, underactuated soft manipulators for ...

Paternal p,p′-DDE exposure and pre-pubertal high-fat diet increases the susceptibility to fertility impairment and sperm Igf2 DMR2 hypo-methylation in male offspring

Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety
The hypothesis of paternal origins of health and disease (POHaD) indicates that paternal exposure to adverse environment could alter the epigenetic modification in germ line, increasing the disease susceptibility in offspring or even in subsequent ...

Modeling of gene expression pattern alteration by p,p′-DDE and dieldrin in largemouth bass [PDF]

Marine Environmental Research, 2006
In this study, largemouth bass (LMB) were subchronically exposed to p,p'-DDE or dieldrin in their diet to evaluate the effect of exposure on expression of genes involved in reproduction and steroid homeostasis. Using real-time PCR, we detected a different gene expression pattern for each OCP, suggesting that they each affect LMB in a different way.

Still there: Persistent Organic Pollutants in fish from two Italian high-mountain lakes

Environmental Chemistry and Ecotoxicology
Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs) can accumulate in high-mountain lake fish due to long-range transport. The aim of this study was to determine the presence of 41 POPs included in the Stockholm Convention in muscle and livers of Salvelinus fontinalis ...

Fetal loss and maternal serum levels of 2,2',4,4',5,5'-hexachlorbiphenyl (CB-153) and 1,1-dichloro-2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl)ethylene (p,p'-DDE) exposure: a cohort study in Greenland and two European populations

Environmental Health, 2010
Background In the present study, the aim is to examine the risk of fetal loss related to environmental 2,2',4,4',5,5'-hexachlorobiphenyl (CB-153) or 1,1-dichloro-2,2-bis(p-chlorophenyl)ethylene (p,p'-DDE) exposure.

Half a Century of Per‐ and Polyfluoroalkyl Substances in Northern Gannet Eggs: Impact of Regulations

Journal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), known as “forever chemicals”, are persistent organic pollutants that have been widely used in the industry across the globe for many decades. Their chemical stability, bioaccumulation, and toxicity pose major environmental and health risks. This study examines temporal trends in the concentrations of
