Low‐Carbon Energy Transition and Corporate Carbon Emissions: The Critical Role of Climate Change Mitigation Policies and Institutional Context

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study examines the strategic efficacy of corporate low‐carbon energy transition, such as through nuclear energy adoption, as a response to decarbonization pressures. Analyzing an international sample of energy firms, we demonstrate that the relationship between this form of transition and emission reductions is not technologically ...

Circular Transitions in Healthcare Waste Management in Vietnam: An Institutional Perspective

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACTHealthcare waste management (HCWM) is a growing environmental and public health concern. This study explores how the institutional pressures that shape HCWM practices evolve toward circularity through coercive, normative, and mimetic isomorphisms and how these mechanisms influence organisational behaviour in Vietnam, a complex, highly regulated

Recent Advances in Ionizing Radiation as a Nonequilibrium Chemical Field for Catalysis

open access: yesCarbon and Hydrogen, EarlyView.
Ionizing radiation acts as a nonequilibrium chemical field that generates reactive species and structural perturbations. These radiation‐induced effects bridge catalytic material construction, including metal loading, framework evolution, defect engineering, and carbon‐network reorganization, with selective transformations such as oxidation, reduction,

Dietary Artificial Sweeteners: From Chemical Transformation in Food to Gut Microbial Processing

open access: yesChemFoodChem, EarlyView.
This review article unites classical and recent findings on the stability of artificial sweeteners in food. The focus is on ten sweeteners approved in the European Union: their chemical stability during processing and storage, individual degradation products, and their interactions with the intestinal microbiota.

Isoform Specificity of a Compound Targeting Actin Filaments Containing Tropomyosin Tpm1.8/1.9

open access: yesCytoskeleton, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The unbranched actin filaments in mammalian cells are usually composed of co‐polymers of a specific tropomyosin isoform with actin. Genetic manipulation has revealed that the tropomyosins largely define the functional properties of actin filaments in an isoform‐specific, non‐redundant manner.

Regulatory Convergence and Divergence in ESG Reporting in the Indo‐Pacific Region

open access: yesCorporate Social Responsibility and Environmental Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) reporting has evolved significantly globally over the past few decades. Many countries are now signatories to international agreements such as the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) and the Paris Agreement, with increasing commitments to emissions reduction targets and the

Thermal Neutron Die-Way-Time Studies for P&DGNAA of radioactive waste drums at the MEDINA Facility

open access: yes, 2014
In Germany, radioactive waste with negligible heat production has to pass through a process of quality checking in order to check its conformance with national regulations prior to its transport, intermediate storage and final disposal.

Different from bone: Tooth formation and enameloid mineralization are not affected by reduced dietary phosphorus intake

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Vertebrates rely on phosphorus intake for skeletal mineralization. In humans, hypomineralized teeth associated with rickets, hypophosphatemia, hypophosphatasia, or idiopathic molar‐incisor‐hypomineralization pose significant problems.
