Preparation of Hydrophilic Polysilsesquioxanes and Their Applications as Water Separation and Antifogging Coating Materials

open access: yesThe Chemical Record, EarlyView.
Hydrophilic substituents were introduced onto the silicon atoms of random polysilsesquioxanes (PSQs) to improve water permeability and absorptivity for exploring the applications of PSQ materials as heat‐ and chlorine‐resistant water desalination reverse osmosis (RO) membranes and scratch‐resistant antifogging coating materials.

Multistressor Interaction of Perfluorooctane Sulfonate (PFOS) and Temperature in Two Estuarine Fish Species, Red Drum (Sciaenops ocellatus) and Sheepshead Minnow (Cyprinodon variegatus)

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Perfluorooctane sulfonate (PFOS), a perfluoroalkyl substance (PFAS), is characterized by a long, fluorinated carbon chain which makes it ideal for oil‐ and water‐repellent products but detrimental for the environment, where it persists and accumulates in organisms.

Content analysis of TikTok videos about tick prevention methods for dogs and cats

open access: yesVeterinary Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Social media is a major source of pet health information. On platforms such as TikTok, algorithm‐driven recommendations may expose users to health‐related content even without active searching. This study described tick prevention videos on TikTok.

Nonthermal plasma approaches for combating implant‐associated infections: A compendious review

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
Implant‐associated infections pose serious clinical challenges. Non‐thermal plasma (NTP) modifications overcome this bottleneck in distinct ways relative to traditional sterilization methods. Gas‐phase plasmas generate highly energetic species, UV radiation and reactive oxygen/nitrogen species (RONS), which alter the implant surface properties.

A low‐cost, portable polarizing digital light microscope for monitoring crystal growth and for crystal harvesting

open access: yesJournal of Applied Crystallography, EarlyView.
A low‐cost, portable, medium‐resolution polarizing digital light microscope device for monitoring crystal growth and for crystal harvesting is described. The device can be used with a cell phone or a personal computer for real‐time imaging by professional and amateur scientists alike.Motivated by the need for a convenient way to demonstrate the growth ...

Complex multitrophic species interactions and fitness costs: Intricate consequences of jasmonate and salicylate induced plant defences

open access: yesJournal of Animal Ecology, EarlyView.
This study reveals how long‐term activation of jasmonic and salicylic acid signalling reshapes arthropod communities and plant fitness across seasons. By showing that induced defences generate contrasting outcomes and cascading trade‐offs across trophic levels, it challenges the assumption that induced resistance is uniformly beneficial in natural ...

Effects of bleach on carcass postmortem microbiomes and necrophagous beetle carcass attendance and their internal microbiomes

open access: yesJournal of Forensic Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract Forensic entomology, and potentially microbiology in the future, can be used during death investigations to corroborate an estimated time since death. Instances where products are introduced to a cadaver, either in attempt to conceal or by accident, can affect decomposition and succession of associated decomposer taxa (i.e., insects and ...
