Bio‐Based Multilayer Composites Based on Blended Electrospun Fibers and Luffa Cylindrica for Enhanced Low‐Frequency Noise Absorption

Journal of Polymer Science, Volume 64, Issue 7, Page 1568-1582, 1 April 2026.
Bio‐based multilayer composites consisting of Luffa Cylindrica and electrospun microfibers exhibit enhanced sound absorption, shifting peak performance towards lower frequencies. The multilayer configuration improves acoustic wave dissipation, providing a tunable and sustainable solution for urban and traffic‐related noise mitigation.

Mutational analysis of the Aspergillus ambient pH receptor PalH underscores its potential as a target for antifungal compounds. [PDF]

, 2016
The pal/RIM ambient pH signalling pathway is crucial for the ability of pathogenic fungi to infect hosts. The Aspergillus nidulans 7-TMD receptor PalH senses alkaline pH, subsequently facilitating ubiquitination of the arrestin PalF.
