Synthesis and Performance Study of a New Ether-Polyalphaolefin Base Oil
This study reports the first synthesis of a new type of ether-polyalphaolefin (DVE-PAO) base oil via free radical bulk copolymerization using triethylene glycol divinyl ether (DVE-3) and α-olefin in drip-feed mode. The characteristic structure of DVE-PAO

ABSTRACT Objective High‐fat diet represses Ceacam1 transcription via a PPARα‐mediated mechanism to cause insulin resistance before inflammation develops. The current study investigated whether mutating PPRE‐RXRα in Ceacam1 promoter prevents diet‐induced metabolic abnormalities and hepatic fibrosis in male C57BL6/J mice.

ABSTRACT Background Paediatric bronchiectasis (PB) unrelated to cystic fibrosis or primary ciliary dyskinesia causes significant morbidity and impairs quality of life (QoL) for children and their families. An international consensus ranked a paediatric‐specific QoL measure as the highest research priority, yet no self‐report instrument exists for ...

Poly(lauryl methacrylate)‐poly(2‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PLMA‐PHEMA) diblock copolymer nanoparticles prepared in non‐polar media serve as nanoreactors for the in situ synthesis of silica from tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS). A silica mass loading of 17% as judged by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) produces a highly transparent dispersion, and ...

SYN‐A, a naturally derived synergist, inhibited key metabolic pathways associated with pyrethroid insecticide resistance in cabbage stem flea beetle (CSFB) and its parasitoid Microctonus brassicae. SYN‐A restored pyrethroid efficacy against resistant CSFB allowing up to 80% reduction in application rates.

Behavioural manipulation of Psylliodes chrysocephala provides promising opportunities for sustainable pest management in oilseed rape systems. This review synthesises evidence on glucosinolates and their volatile isothiocyanate derivatives as phagostimulants and attractants, alongside the repellent or antifeedant effects of non‐host plants, plant ...

Platelet membrane fragment‐modified lipid nanoparticles (PLNP‐SPD) safely deliver spermidine, reduce its cytotoxicity, selectively bind inflamed macrophages, and suppress their inflammatory activation. After adventitial delivery around vascular grafts, PLNP‐SPD reduces foreign body reactions and inflammation, promotes implanted vessel regeneration in ...
