Mangroves of India : Biodiversity, Conservation and Management [PDF]
, 2005 Mangroves are salt-tolerant plants of tropical and subtropical intertidal regions of the world. The specific regions where these plants occur are termed as 'mangrove ecosystem'. These are highly productive but extremely sensitive and fragile.

Conductive Hydrogels for Exogenous Sensing and Cell Fate Control
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.We engineer electrically conductive hydrogels by combining sulfated glycosaminoglycans with semiconducting polymers. These hydrogels bind bioactive proteins, including growth factors, whose release or retention can be modulated by low‐voltage stimulation. The hydrogels are also integrated as 3D channels in organic electrochemical transistors as part of

Exploring plant tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses [PDF]
, 2007 Plants are exposed to many stress factors, such as drought, high salinity or pathogens, which reduce the yield of the cultivated plants or affect the quality of the harvested products. Arabidopsis thaliana was used as a model plant to study the responses

Superior Impact‐Resistant Composite Hydrogels Through an Ionic Coupling Strategy
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.An ionic coupling strategy is developed to simultaneously reinforce networks and interfaces in composite hydrogels. Sodium citrate acts as a single multifunctional ionic coupler to strengthen the poly(vinyl alcohol) matrix via the Hofmeister effect, reinforce the chitosan–sodium alginate nanofiber network via desolvation and electrostatic crosslinking,

Salt stress tolerance in acidic and sweet mandarins [PDF]
, 2015 Mandarin genotypes can be split in two main groups: the acidic and the sweet mandarins. Commonly, acidic are used as rootstocks when sweet mandarins are the varieties that are consumed as fruits. The acidic 'Cleopatra' mandarin (Citrus reshni Hort.

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.This review traces the evolution of lithium‐ion battery separators from passive barriers to multifunctional components central to cell safety and performance. Polymer‐ceramic hybrids, nanofiber architectures, and bio‐derived membranes deliver ionic conductivities above 3 mS cm−1, thermal stability beyond 200 °C, and effective suppression of lithium ...

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The advancement of 3D carbon nanostructures for next‐generation desalination membranes is hindered by limited control of the pore size to ensure effective salt rejection. Chemical functionalization and mechanical modification are known approaches to address the problem, while the combined effect of the two approaches remains unexplored.

Hydrogel‐Based 3D‐Printable Stretchable Pressure Sensor
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.We present a carbon‐black‐functionalized double‐network granular hydrogel (DNGH) pressure sensor capable of detecting pressures from 200 Pa, equivalent to a light finger touch, up to 500 kPa. The sensor exhibits signal drifts below 3.5% after 800 cycles and response times around 80 ms. Leveraging this broad sensing range, we 3D print this material into
