Polymer Nano-Carrier-Mediated Gene Delivery: Visualizing and Quantifying DNA Encapsulation Using dSTORM. [PDF]
This study demonstrates the use of super‐resolution microscopy (dSTORM) to quantify DNA encapsulation within pNIPAM/bPEI microgels. By visualizing DNA encapsulation at various charge ratios and for different temperatures, insights are provided into gene delivery carrier design, highlighting the impact of DNA size, shape, and microgel properties on ...

The predictive value of emotion regulation difficulties and negative mood on short and long-term treatment outcomes in an online guided self-help programme for adults with binge-eating disorder. [PDF]
Abstract Objective Cognitive behaviour therapy (CBT) online guided self‐help programs represent efficacious and accessible treatment options for adults with binge‐eating disorder (BED), but research on predictors of treatment outcome is scarce. This study aimed to investigate the predictive value of emotion regulation difficulties relative to that of ...

Size, not phylogeny, explains the morphology of the endosseous labyrinth in the crown clade Crocodylia. [PDF]
Here, we present the most complete dataset to date on the endosseous labyrinths of extant crocodylians. Using 3D geometric morphometrics, we show that allometry constitutes a major contributor of the shape variation of the crocodylian endosseous labyrinths and that the development of this structure is likely linked to the braincase conformation, in all

Toughening Healable Supramolecular Double Polymer Networks Based on Hydrogen Bonding and Metal Coordination. [PDF]
We report supramolecular polymer double networks (DNs) based on poly(n‐butyl acrylate)s featuring orthogonally responsive 2‐ureido‐4[1H]pyrimidinone (UPy) and 2 : 1 complexes between 2,6‐bis(1′‐methylbenzimidazolyl)pyridine (MeBip) ligand and Zn2+ ions as cross‐links.

Management Measures and Trends of Biological Invasions in Europe: A Survey-Based Assessment of Local Managers. [PDF]
Our study explores how managers across Europe perceive the trends and management of invasive alien species. Through a survey of nearly 2000 managers from 41 countries, we found substantial efforts dedicated to monitoring and controlling IAS, particularly invasive plants.
