Polylimonene Improves the In Vivo Wound Healing Performance of Sodium Alginate‐Based Hydrogels

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
An oligomer derived from orange peel essential oil incorporated into an alginate hydrogel was shown to be biocompatible and to exhibit a high capacity for in vivo incisional wound healing, as confirmed by experimental assays and mathematical models fitted to the data describing wound area reduction as a function of the dressing‐tissue contact time ...

Polymer‐Crosslinking System‐Filler Interactions in Polychloroprene Adhesives: Experimental and Molecular Modeling Insights

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
The use of polychloroprene is common in elastomeric adhesives. This study highlights the possible substitution of zinc oxide curing systems to a less hazardous metal complex, also evaluating the changes that higher surface area fillers can bring to the adhesive.

Tailored Dual Responsive Hybrid Gelatin Methacryloyl/Poly[2‐(Dimethylamino)Ethyl Methacrylate] Hydrogels for Efficient Ibuprofen Release in Topical Applications

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
GelMA/DMAEMA hybrid hydrogels for release of ibuprofen. ABSTRACT In this study, biocompatible hydrogels intended for topical delivery of ibuprofen were synthesized from gelatin methacryloyl (GelMA) and 2‐(dimethylamino)ethyl methacrylate (DMAEMA) by varying their proportions. The impact of different GelMA and DMAEMA ratios was comprehensively evaluated

Engineering Electrospun PCL/PEO Membranes With ECM‐Like Architecture and Tunable Hydrophilicity as Functional Wound Dressings

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of the production of PCL/PEO electrospun membranes and their morphological, physical, and biological characterization. ABSTRACT Skin injuries resulting from trauma, burns, or chronic conditions such as diabetes often require advanced medical interventions, as conventional dressings provide only passive protection with limited ...

Animal‐mediated seed dispersal: A review of study methods

Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract By dispersing seeds, animals provide ecological functions critical for the ecology, evolution, and conservation of plants. We review quantitative and empirical approaches and emerging technologies to quantify processes and patterns of animal‐mediated seed dispersal (zoochory) across its phases: from predispersal to postdispersal.

Effect of Ramped Oxygen Flow During Magnetron Sputtering on the Structural, Optical, and Photoelectrochemical Properties of WO3‐x Thin Films

Advanced Physics Research, EarlyView.
A compositionally graded WO3‐x thin film was engineered through a controlled linear increase of oxygen flow during reactive magnetron sputtering. This deposition strategy yields a gradual transition from an oxygen‐deficient, conductive bottom layer to a more stoichiometric and crystalline surface layer, forming an intrinsic gradient homojunction.

Comparative and functional anatomy of masticatory muscles and bite force in opossums (Didelphimorphia, Didelphidae)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
We describe the functional anatomy of masticatory muscles in nine opossums, finding a generalized anatomical pattern with differences related to skull morphology. Variation in quantitative myological data and estimated bite force was mostly related to size, and the increase in bite force supports dietary diversification associated with size increase ...

Histovariability and fossil diagenesis of Pissarrachampsa (Pseudosuchia, Notosuchia, Baurusuchidae) from the Upper Cretaceous of Southeast Brazil

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Notosuchians were key components of western Gondwanan Cretaceous ecosystems in terrestrial predator niches and exhibited remarkable taxonomic and ecological diversity. Previous research has explored their physiology, metabolism, and histology, revealing varied growth patterns and life history strategies.

Revisiting a long‐overlooked skull: Implications for the distribution of Dinodontosaurus brevirostris (Kannemeyeriiformes) in the Brazilian Triassic

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Dicynodonts (Anomodontia: Dicynodontia) were one of the main groups of terrestrial tetrapods in Permian and Triassic faunas. In Brazil, the genus Dinodontosaurus is one of the most common tetrapod taxon in the Triassic Santa Maria Supersequence. This genus has a complex taxonomic history and is represented in the Triassic of both Argentina and

Histology and fossil diagenesis of a pterosaur tooth from the Crato Formation (Lower Cretaceous of Brazil)

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Pterosaur dental biology remains poorly understood despite its importance for comprehending feeding strategies and flight adaptations. Here, we present the first comprehensive histological analysis of an ornithocheiriform pterosaur tooth from the Lower Cretaceous Crato Formation (Santana Group, Northeast Brazil).
