The hidden science of haptics: A pedagogical review of tactile evaluation in cosmetics
This review explores the physiological basis of tactile perception and critically examines classical and emerging sensory methods used in cosmetics, advocating for broader methodological integration and recognition of sensory analysis in the field. Abstract Sensory analysis is a cornerstone of cosmetic development, yet remains underrepresented in peer ...

Revision of Earth-sized Kepler Planet Candidate Properties with High Resolution Imaging by Hubble Space Telescope [PDF]
We present the results of our Hubble Space Telescope program and describe how our analysis methods were used to re-evaluate the habitability of some of the most interesting Kepler planet candidates. Our program observed 22 Kepler Object of Interest (KOI)

Key metabolites secreted by Chlorella vulgaris alleviate salt stress in soybean seedlings
Chlorella vulgaris secretes exosome‐derived linolenic acid and inosine, which alleviate salt stress and enhance salt tolerance in soybean seedlings by activating stress‐responsive signaling networks. ABSTRACT Soil salinization is a major abiotic stress factor that reduces soybean production.

OrCAS: Origins, Compositions, and Atmospheres of Sub-Neptunes. I. Survey Definition
Sub-Neptunes—volatile-rich exoplanets smaller than Neptune—are intrinsically the most common type of planet known. However, the formation and nature of these objects, as well as the distinctions between subclasses (if any), remain unclear.

Two Transiting Earth-size Planets Near Resonance Orbiting a Nearby Cool Star [PDF]
Discoveries from the prime Kepler mission demonstrated that small planets (< 3 Earth-radii) are common outcomes of planet formation. While Kepler detected many such planets, all but a handful orbit faint, distant stars and are not amenable to precise ...

ABSTRACT Allelopathic rice is increasingly recognised as a promising strategy for sustainable weed management. Resistance to the herbicide quinclorac is widespread in barnyardgrass, but it remains unclear whether allelopathic rice exerts the same defence against herbicide‐susceptible and ‐resistant barnyardgrass. We conducted integrated transcriptomic,

Relative photometry of transiting exoplanet CoRoT-Exo-2b
Relative CCD photometry of the extrasolar planet COROT-Exo-2b transiting in front of its parent star was carried out at the Astronomical and Geophysical Observatory of Comenius University at Modra (AGO). Physical and orbital parameters were determined and compared with the previous published data.

Molecule by Molecule Characterization of a Polymer Molecular Mass Distribution via Mass Photometry
Mass photometry (MP) was utilized to achieve label‐free, molecule‐by‐molecule measurement of the full polymer molecular mass distribution (MMD) of a synthetic polymer without the need for sample fractionation. The ability to elucidate the full MMD in minutes, as opposed to having only specific moments of the MMD acquired in hours via chromatography ...

ABSTRACT Salinity is a major threat to global agricultural productivity of staple crops such as wheat. Although microbial‐based solutions hold promise for alleviating salinity stress, practical implementation is hindered by insufficient mechanistic characterization of bioinoculants and their interactions with plants.

Potassium silicate can decrease the uptake of sodium (Na+) into wheat cells by affecting the Na+ uptake channels and increasing ion homeostasis. Abstract Salinity causes negative impacts on crops. We investigated the effect of potassium silicate (K2SiO3) on the cytosolic uptake of sodium, [Na+]cyt, in mesophyll protoplasts of wheat cultivars differing ...
