The plasticisation model of dye diffusion: Part 10
Abstract The Flory–Fox and Gordon–Taylor models were used to predict the extent to which sorbed water reduces the glass transition temperature of poly(ethylene terephthalate) yarn as a function of moisture regain. The extent of water‐induced plasticisation predicted by the Flory–Fox equation concurs with average values of plasticisation reported for ...

Targeted keratin repair: A plant‐based approach to hair strength and surface restoration
Application of Avena strigosa seed extract may reinforce keratin bonding, restoring hair fibre integrity by promoting intramolecular interactions at damaged sites of keratin proteins. Abstract Objective Chemical and thermal stress disrupts the intramolecular and intermolecular interactions that stabilize hair keratin, leading to structural degradation ...

Lipidomics of orchid seeds: from development to storage
The study tracked lipid changes from pollination to storage in two orchid species. Although both were desiccation‐tolerant and storable, differences in saturated and unsaturated fatty acid proportions during development led to different moisture contents and germination capacities.

Predicting soil phosphorus uptake: Evaluating low‐cost chemical alternatives to DGT technology
Abstract Soil phosphorus tests quantify specific fractions but fail to capture P kinetics that govern plant availability. Diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT) technology offers a dynamic measure of P mobilization, outperforming conventional extractions in predicting soil P supply.
