Rethinking plastic waste: innovations in enzymatic breakdown of oil‐based polyesters and bioplastics
Plastic pollution remains a critical environmental challenge, and current mechanical and chemical recycling methods are insufficient to achieve a fully circular economy. This review highlights recent breakthroughs in the enzymatic depolymerization of both oil‐derived polyesters and bioplastics, including high‐throughput protein engineering, de novo ...

On the dispersion in lithium and potassium among late-type stars in young clusters: IC 2602 [PDF]
We have measured the equivalent width (EW) of the K I 7699 A line in a sample of G and K-type members of the ~35 Myr old cluster IC 2602 for which a dispersion in Li EWs had been reported by previous studies.

HSP70 governs permeability and mechanotransduction in primary human endothelial cells
HSP70 chemical inhibition reduces endothelial cell proliferation and increases permeability, the latter supported by normal interendothelial junctional protein distribution. HSP70 also plays a role in shear stress response, a hemodynamic force naturally present in blood vessels and correlated with vessel protection.

Potassium Intake and Blood Pressure: A Dose‐Response Meta‐Analysis of Randomized Controlled Trials
Background Epidemiologic studies, including trials, suggest an association between potassium intake and blood pressure (BP). However, the strength and shape of this relationship is uncertain.

Mineral nutrition and its genetic signature in oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.): A possible panorama for high yielding materials at low fertiliser cost [PDF]
Significant differences in the mineral nutrition have been demonstrated between progenies and the main categories at PT Socfindo (Jacquemard et al, 2002). A new set of investigations has been conducted based on a larger genetic background.

Hydrogel‐Based Capacitive Sensor Model for Ammonium Monitoring in Aquaculture
Traditional techniques for monitoring aquaculture water quality, particularly ammonium levels, harm fish. This work presents a novel capacitive sensor with an ionic hydrogel transducer to monitor ammonium concentration in real time based on the ammonium‐induced hydrogel dissociation and osmotic pressure. Monitoring aquaculture water quality, especially
