Animals redistribute elements throughout their lives by depositing wastes and carcasses. Growing evidence shows that these zoogeochemical processes enhance landscape diversity and heterogeneity worldwide. We provide a descriptive framework for understanding how direct animal depositions (i.e.

Long‐chain dimethyl‐branched aliphatic methyl ethers are key components of spiders’ epicuticular and web lipids. Evaluating different strategies for their synthesis, it is found that the late introduction of the methyl groups via alkynyl mesylate substitutions and hydrogenation gives faster and cleaner access to such target compounds compared to other ...

Critical Evaluation of Methods for the Identification of Aneugens
ABSTRACT The genotoxic potential of chemicals must be evaluated in regulatory safety assessment settings, including but not limited to, the development of new pharmaceuticals, industrial chemicals, food and cosmetic ingredients, and agrochemicals. Initial assessment of the chromosome‐damaging potential of chemicals is often conducted in mammalian cells

By balancing the electrode thickness and porosity effects on C‐rate performance of dry‐coated lithium iron phosphate cathodes, the areal capacities of ≈300 μm‐thick electrodes are uniformly increased across a C‐rate range by 2.0–2.6 mAh cm−2 from ≈150 μm‐thick electrodes, indicating the promising future of using thick dry electrodes for higher C‐rate ...

Creativity and its link to epilepsy
Abstract Creative thinking represents one of our highest‐order cognitive processes, involving multiple cortical structures and an intricate interplay between several cortical and subcortical networks. It results in novel ideas that translate to useful products or concepts. The evolutionary purpose of creativity is therefore apparent, as it advances our

Abstract Objective Drug‐resistant epilepsy, a severe and diagnostically challenging neurological condition often linked to focal cortical dysplasia (FCD), represents a significant social and healthcare burden. While the thalamus is notably altered in this disorder, it remains unclear whether these changes result from epilepsy manifestation or ...

ABSTRACT Valorizing agro by‐products and using underutilized food crops are two important ways to guarantee sustained food and health security in the tropics. Hence, this study was to create a functional breakfast meal using a combination of soy cake (SC), cocoa bean shell (CBS), and germinated fonio millet.

Charnockites with 2691–2607 Ma magmatic ages from the NMZ show arc‐magmatic geochemical signatures. They correspond to the lower‐crustal equivalent of the Chilimanzi Suite Granite in the Zimbabwe Craton. Lu‐Hf isotopic data of magmatic zircons show negative εHf(t) values (−11.18 to −2.20) with TDMC ages of 3699–3158 Ma, suggesting their protolith ...
