'Responsible companies' and African livestock-keepers: acting, teaching but not learning? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
There is some evidence that companies, both multinational and African, operating from motivations that can be very broadly labelled "Corporate Social Responsibility", can make real and significant contributions to pastoral development and that useful ...

Start, Stop, Rewind, Repeat—Cyclic Exposure of Adipose Stromal Cells‐derived Cartilage Organoids to Chondrogenic and Proliferative Cues to Achieve Scaled‐up and Customizable Bone Formation by Endochondral Ossification

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study exploits the plasticity of ASCs‐derived cartilage organoids which generate a perichondrial layer of MSCs when exposed to cyclic chondrogenic/proliferative cues. Using these organoids as building blocks, we develop (i) Phalange Shaped Tissue Engineered Cartilage (Pa‐TECs), recapitulating endochondral ossification suitable for the treatment of

Age grading \u3cem\u3eAn. gambiae\u3c/em\u3e and \u3cem\u3eAn. arabiensis\u3c/em\u3e using near infrared spectra and artificial neural networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Background Near infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) is currently complementing techniques to age-grade mosquitoes. NIRS classifies lab-reared and semi-field raised mosquitoes into \u3c or ≥ 7 days old with an average accuracy of 80%, achieved by training a ...

Pioneering the Future: Principles, Advances, and Challenges in Organic Electrodes for Aqueous Ammonium‐Ion Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, Volume 37, Issue 13, April 2, 2025.
Leveraging the numerous advantages of ammonium‐ion (NH₄⁺)—including cost‐effectiveness, low corrosiveness, preferential orientation, and rapid diffusion kinetics—aqueous NH₄⁺ batteries (AAIBs) have gained significant attention. This review highlights and evaluates the progress of AAIBs utilizing organic electrode materials such as small molecules ...

Combined effects of parasitism and anthropogenic stressors on behaviour and biomarkers in the freshwater amphipod Gammarus fossarum: Dominant and additive effects prevail

open access: yesEcotoxicology and Environmental Safety
Chemical contaminants, elevated temperature, and parasitism are expected to impose multiple stresses on aquatic organisms. Their sublethal effects on fitness may be mediated through multiple traits, and combine in additive or interactive ways.

Synergistic Coupling of Host and Electrolyte Achieving 1270 Wh L−1 in Anode‐Free Lithium Metal Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A synergistic combination of a highly reversible host and a commercially viable carbonate‐rich electrolyte enables simultaneous stabilization of both anode and cathode interfaces in anode‐free lithium metal batteries. This integrated strategy delivers exceptional reversibility and a record volumetric energy density of 1270 Wh L−1 (including package) in

A Quasi‐Solid Ionic Liquid‐Polymer Hybrid Electrolyte for Shuttle‐Free and Dendrite‐Free Aqueous Zinc─Bromine Batteries

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A quasi‐solid ionic liquid‐polymer hybrid electrolyte is proposed to achieve shuttle‐free and dendrite‐free aqueous Zn─Br batteries. Synergetic effects between Zn2+ selective conduction of polyanionic network and polybromide complexing additive suppress the shuttle effect and improve Zn reversibility.
