Chloride Selective, Nonprotonophoric Ion Transport with Macrocyclic Halogen Bonding Anionophores
Macrocyclic halogen bonding anionophores are reported, which enable very high chloride over proton and hydroxide transport selectivity. This ion selectivity profile is key for future potential therapeutic applications, and its origin is explored through DFT and MD simulations at the membrane.

Palmitic Acid Synthesis from Coconut Oil Cake Waste using Probiotic Bacteria of Marine Fishes
Palmitic acid is used in cosmetics as well as skin care products, and its extraction from plants remains major source of production. The conventional process of extraction is quite laborious and may lead to loss of plant diversity. Therefore, the current

Revisiting acidulation for tall oil and lignin manufacturing
Abstract Tall oil is a byproduct of the kraft pulping process when softwood is used as raw material. As the production of softwood‐based pulp is in high demand, the optimization of the tall oil production process needs to be revisited to ensure the highest quality and quantity of tall oil manufacturing. In this work, the process for tall oil production

Incorporation of acetate into fatty acids and lecithin by lung slices from fetal and newborn lambs
Incorporation of acetate-1-14 into phospholipids and fatty acids by lung slices from fetal and newborn lambs and from ewes was studied in vitro. The distribution of radioactivity in the fatty acids of neutral lipids, phospholipids, and lecithin was ...

Natural wax supported by microporous biochar to create a stable phase change material
Beeswax and hardwood charcoal are combined to form a stable and biodegradable composite phase change material. Abstract Energy storage, exploiting the latent heat of phase change materials, offers an efficient method to store and release heat. Initial developments of phase change materials and their containment targeted performance over environmental ...

Abstract Organic residue analysis was conducted on various vessels from burials at Tel Yehud, Israel. The analyses led to new reliable evidence for the presence of opioid alkaloids and their decomposition products. This research revitalizes a decades‐old discussion on the presence and function of the opium trade across a cultural region of utmost ...

Analytical Study of Lanolin as Potential Biomarker of Prehistoric Sheep‐Shearing Practice
Lanolin, a complex wax found on sheep wool, accumulates on shearing tools, such as flint and obsidian blades, used since the Neolithic. This study explores lanolin's degradation patterns as a potential biomarker for prehistoric sheep‐shearing practices, employing micro‐Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy, hyperspectral imaging, and gas ...

Redefining the Skin Barrier: A Microbiome‐Integrated Multilayered Defense Model
ABSTRACT The skin constitutes a dynamic interface orchestrating a sophisticated multilayered defense system comprising physical, chemical, immune, and microbial barriers. This review synthesizes current understanding of the structural and functional integration of these barriers, emphasizing their synergistic interactions in maintaining cutaneous ...
