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
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.

Tritium breeding and activation in the cascade reactor [PDF]
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
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 ...
