Microplastics in grey seal (Halichoerus grypus) intestines: Are they associated with parasite aggregations?

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2019
Between 2012 and 2015, 13 grey seals were recovered from trammel nets targeting monkfish and rays off the south coast of Ireland. Incidence and distribution of microplastics were investigated along the intestines of bycaught seals.

High-Throughput Calculation of Interlayer van der Waals Forces Validated with Experimental Measurements

Research, 2022
Interlayer van der Waals interactions play an important role in two-dimensional (2D) materials on various occasions. The interlayer binding force is often directly measured and is considered more closely related to the exfoliation condition.
