Scaling from microsite to landscape to resolve litter decomposition dynamics in globally extensive drylands

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, EarlyView.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Decomposition is the transformation of dead organic matter into its inorganic constituents. In most biomes, decomposition rates can be accurately predicted with simple mathematical models, but these models have long under‐predicted decomposition in globally extensive ...

Polypropylene Nanoplastic Exposure to Respiratory Epithelial Barrier‐On‐Chip and Interfacial Interactions With Human Serum Albumin

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Exposure to 305 nm PP NPs significantly disrupts the airway barrier‐on‐chip, reducing TEER, suppressing ZO‐1/ACE2 expression, and triggering ROS‐mediated apoptosis. In biological media, PP NPs exhibit a biphasic adsorption pattern, leading to the formation of a protein corona that increases their size to 364 nm.

Enhancing the fastness characteristics of weld‐dyed cotton and recycled nylon 6,6 fabrics via sodium alginate and titanium dioxide

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study investigates a sustainable dyeing and finishing strategy for recycled nylon 6,6 and organic cotton fabrics dyed with weld. Following meta‐mordant dyeing using alum under Natural Organic Dye Standard (NODS)‐compliant conditions, the fabrics were subjected to functional finishing with titanium dioxide as a multifunctional ...

Naturally coloured poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate)

open access: yesColoration Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract This study reports an innovative approach for producing intrinsically coloured poly(3‐hydroxybutyrate) [P(3HB)] films by incorporating natural dyes—turmeric, paprika, annatto, beetroot and hibiscus—directly into the fermentation medium of Ralstonia solanacearum RS.

The influence of post‐curing protocols on the optical properties of provisional and long‐term 3D‐printable resin composites

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract This study determined the influence of post‐curing protocols on the color stability of provisional and long‐term 3D‐printable resin composites. Disc‐shaped specimens were fabricated from a provisional (Prov) and long‐term (Crown) 3D‐printable resin composites using a digital light processing printer.

Optimizing diphenyl(2,4,6‐trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide concentration and post‐curing time to balance mechanical properties and color stability in a three‐dimensional‐printed restorative resin

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Oral Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Three‐dimensional (3D) printing is widely used in dental restorations; however, optimization of photoinitiator concentration and post‐curing protocols remains critical to achieve a balance between mechanical and esthetic performance. This study evaluated the combined effect of diphenyl(2,4,6‐trimethylbenzoyl)phosphine oxide (TPO) concentration

Anaerobic Attenuation of Diisopropyl Ether (DIPE) in Groundwater: Kinetics and Implications for Monitored Natural Attenuation

open access: yesGroundwater Monitoring &Remediation, EarlyView.
Abstract Diisopropyl ether (DIPE) is a branched ether used as a solvent, extractant, and gasoline additive. While aerobic biodegradation of DIPE has been documented, attenuation under anaerobic conditions (typical of groundwater impacted by petroleum hydrocarbons and fuel oxygenates) remains poorly constrained.

Rational determination of real‐life UV exposure across latitudes: An extended Diffey‐based model integrating behavioural factors

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
This study models real‐life UVB and UVA exposure across latitudes and seasons using an extended Diffey framework with behavioural corrections. Findings reveal predictable dose patterns and support pragmatic SPF and UVA‐PF caps, offering a quantitative basis for realistic photoprotection and regulatory discussion.

Impact of ultraviolet radiation‐induced damage to hair fiber integrity: A multi‐technique physicochemical characterization of surface and cortex properties

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
UV exposure induces cuticular and cortical damage in natural hair, with oxidative effects and protein degradation comparable to bleaching. However, double bleaching leads to significantly greater structural degradation, emphasizing distinct mechanisms and severity of chemical versus UV‐induced damage. Abstract The combination of chemist techniques is a
