Microfluidic Gratings for X‐Ray Phase Contrast Imaging

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This work establishes a new protocol for the fabrication of X‐ray gratings that exploits the advantages of microfluidics and enables a more inexpensive, faster, and scalable production process. These X‐ray devices are fundamental for implementing X‐ray phase contrast imaging (XPCI) in laboratory and clinical settings, yet their costly and complex ...

Runoff characteristics in forest plots before and after wood ash fertilization

Maderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2014
Spreading wood ash on forest and agricultural lands has been used for years to correct pH in acid soils and as a source of plant nutrients. However, it is necessary to enhance the knowledge of potential hazards derived from such a practise.

Runoff Dynamics and Its Regime Changes in the Major River Basins of Africa From GRACE and GRACE-FO Observations

IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
The major African basins supply freshwater to around 0.5 billion people, while monitoring runoff fluctuations in these basins is still challenging due to limited in-situ data and high costs.

Impact of Climate Change on Metal and Suspended Sediment Concentrations in Urban Waters

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2020
In order to study the impact of climate change on metal contaminant transport in urban waters and its relevance for water quality, we have analyzed variations in metal- and suspended sediment concentrations (SSC) in three urban rivers and one small creek

Prion‐Like Protein LENG8‐Mediated Nucleation Drives Stress Granule Assembly

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
LENG8 is a newly identified stress granule (SG) nucleator required for SG assembly. Following stress, nuclear LENG8 granules disassemble, allowing LENG8 to translocate into the cytoplasm and form independent nucleation foci. These foci fuse with canonical early G3BP1/TIA1 seeds via LENG8‐TIA1 binding to drive SG maturation.

Nonlinear Quantum Effects Drive Grotthuss Proton Conduction in Structured Electrolytes Based on Deep Eutectic Solvents

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that the inverse relationship between viscosity and conductivity in structured electrolytes can be circumvented by leveraging their hydrogen bonding networks for Grotthuss proton transport. Using a mixture of imidazole and levulinic acid, we show that the existence of extended hydrogen‐bonded chains that can rapidly reorient result in ...

In Situ Generation of Gel Foam via Heat‐Accelerated Calcium Ion Release From Nano‐CaCO3 for Lithium‐Ion Battery Fire Suppression and Prevention

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We present a heat‐accelerated in situ crosslinking strategy to create an alginate gel foam for lithium‐ion battery fire suppression. At ambient temperature, the formulation maintains low viscosity for easy foam generation. After exposure to fire, δ‐gluconolactone hydrolysis accelerates, enabling rapid Ca2+ release from CaCO3 and rapid ionic ...
