ERA5 Can Overstate Changes in the Frequency of Extreme Heat: A New Zealand Case Study

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
ERA5 reproduces broad patterns of summer warming across New Zealand but underestimates temperature variability and warm‐tail extremes, biasing estimates of extreme heat risk. ABSTRACT Summertime temperature extremes exert profound impacts on human health, ecosystems, and infrastructure, yet their characteristics and drivers remain poorly quantified in ...

Controllable DNA Condensation by Mixed Cationic Gemini/Nonionic Surfactant Systems: Structure, Thermodynamics, and Cytotoxicity

open access: yesJournal of Surfactants and Detergents, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Controllable DNA condensation is important for nucleic‐acid packaging and non‐viral gene‐delivery systems. This study aimed to determine how the composition of mixed nonionic C12E10 and cationic gemini C12C6C12Br2 surfactants regulates DNA condensation, structure, thermodynamics, and cytotoxicity.

Impact of cold plasma pretreatment and hybrid infrared—hot air drying on bioactive compounds, antioxidant activity, colorimetric attributes, and texture of red beet

open access: yesJSFA reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Drying is essential for food preservation, yet conventional methods often compromise product quality. This study investigated the effects of cold plasma pretreatment time (0, 15, and 30 s) and an intermittent infrared‐hot air hybrid dryer (300, 600, and 900 W; pulse ratios 1 and 2) on the functional and quality attributes of dried ...

Coupled ethanol–trehalose processing accelerates thawing of rapid‐frozen cooked rice through water‐state modulation

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Freezing preserves cooked rice, but ice formation and water redistribution can cause structural and textural deterioration. The individual and combined effects of ethanol soaking and trehalose‐assisted cooking on freeze–thaw behaviour, water state, texture, and microstructure were investigated. Rice was soaked in water or an aqueous

Ultra‐High Frequency Ultrasound Imaging and Quantification of Microvascular Flow in Xenograft Renal Cell Carcinoma in an Avian Chorioallantoic Membrane Model

open access: yesJournal of Ultrasound in Medicine, EarlyView.
Patient‐derived xenograft (PDX) tumor models initiated in avian chorioallantoic membranes (CAM) are under investigation to evaluate the effectiveness of therapeutic options with the objective of personalizing treatments. CAM PDXs paired with ultra‐high frequency ultrasound (UHFUS) imaging could potentially constitute prospective high throughput assays ...
