Design of Experiments (DoE)‐Optimized Polymeric Oxytocin Nanoparticles for Enhanced Nose‐to‐Brain Delivery

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 8, 6 February 2026.
Intranasal (IN) delivery of PEGylated PLGA nanoparticles (NPs) loaded with oxytocin (OT) (OT‐NP‐PEG) is investigated as a strategy to enhance OT transport to the brain for treating autism and other neuropsychiatric disorders. The optimized NP formulation demonstrates appropriate physicochemical characteristics, improved stability, and enhanced mucosal ...

Reflections on How Wheat Flour Lipids Impact the Viscoelastic Properties of Gluten Proteins

open access: yesComprehensive Reviews in Food Science and Food Safety, Volume 25, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Endogenous wheat flour lipids are known to play an important role in baked product quality, even though they constitute a minor fraction of wheat flour composition. They interact with gluten proteins throughout the different stages of dough processing and therefore contribute to specific quality traits in baked products.

Theoretical evaluation of the tritium extraction from liquid metal flows through a free surface and through a permeable membrane

open access: yesNuclear Fusion, 2023
Effective tritium extraction from PbLi flows is a requirement for the functioning of any PbLi based breeding blanket concept. For a continuous plant operation, the removal of the tritium dissolved in the PbLi has to be performed in line and sufficiently ...

Tritium breeding and activation in the cascade reactor [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
Cascade is an inertial fusion reactor that uses circulating Li/sub 2/O pellets as a coolant and tritium breeding medium. The pellets flow through a horizontal rotating vessel, and they are held against the vessel wall by centrifugal force. Three wall designs were considered: a steel shell and a SiC shell prestressed by Al or steel cables.

Respatializing Toxic Harm: The Case Against Sacrifice Zones

open access: yesAntipode, Volume 58, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Describing heavily polluted areas as “sacrifice zones” has become commonplace in recent decades, as diverse groups resist their unwitting exposure to destructive and toxic industrial, municipal, and military activities. However, pollutants tend to seep, spill, leak, and drift from wherever they are concentrated, defying any notion of physical ...
