Abstract Black soldier fly (BSF) cocoons are a chitin-rich byproduct and a sustainable chitosan source. This study evaluated eight extraction protocols varying alkali type (sodium hydroxide (NaOH) or potassium hydroxide (KOH)), concentration, temperature, and duration, followed b...

Semi-volatile and intermediate-volatility organic compounds (S/IVOCs) emitted from cooking are important secondary organic aerosol (SOA) precursors, yet their broad volatility range, chemical complexity, and extensive unresolved chromatographic signals hinder comprehensive charac...

Abstract. The study examined the meat quality characteristics and expression levels of 3 genes (SREBP-1c, PPARγ, and FASN) affecting fatty acid composition in Lalahan lambs at different slaughter weights. Thirty-six male lambs were randomly divided into three groups and fed inten...

Globally, Australia is ranked the fourth-top producer of e-waste. While Australian states and territories are increasingly recognising the e-waste problem and developing policies and regulations that deal with e-waste, huge amounts of e-waste still go undocumented. Currently, reg...

In situ electron microscopy of LaNiO3 transformation during reduction and methane dry reforming
Abstract By in situ electron microscopy we show the intermediate phase formation during decomposition of LaNiO 3 , a model methane dry reforming (DRM) catalyst, under different gas atmospheres. By combining dark- and bright-field imaging with secondary-electron contrast and opera...

This study investigated the identification, antimicrobial resistance patterns, and phenotypic and genotypic traits of 30 Klebsiella isolates recovered from diverse animal species and infection sites. MALDI-TOF MS demonstrated higher accuracy in species-level identification than c...

Abstract Background Diethylene glycol is a toxic industrial solvent with no therapeutic application, yet it continues to contaminate pharmaceutical syrups through adulteration of excipients such as glycerin and propylene glycol. Its low cost and visual indistinguishability from p...

Latent dimensions of financial behaviour derived by principal component and factor analysis
Abstract Rather than directly measuring the dimensions of financial behaviour, this study constructs latent dimensions from observed indicators through multivariate analysis. These latent constructs are subsequently aligned with conceptually developed dimensions. Dimensionality r...

Side-boss parallel channels can enhance reactant transport and water removal in proton exchange membrane fuel cells, but their local protrusions increase the forming difficulty of ultra-thin metallic bipolar plates. This study numerically investigates the single-step stamping for...

Are corporate cash holdings sensitive to neighborhood carbon emissions?
Abstract As carbon transition and regulatory risks escalate, understanding the impact of local carbon emissions on corporate financial strategies is essential, particularly in shaping cash holding policies to manage environmental liabilities. This study investigates the impact of...

Polymer BrushFunctionalized Polyacrylonitrile FiberMembranes for Enhanced Adsorption of Metal Ions
Abstract Precious metal recovery from secondary resources is essential due to their limited natural abundance and growing industrial demand. Polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-based fiber membranes have gained significant attention for their high surface area and porosity, but their inheren...

Rational Designof Pyrrole-Based Ionizable Lipidsfor mRNA Delivery
Abstract Ionizable lipids are key components of lipid nanoparticles for mRNA delivery. Inspired by the DLin-KC2-DMA ionizable lipid, we developed a series of pyrrole-based ionizable lipids to evaluate the feasibility of incorporating a rigid heterocyclic scaffold into ionizable l...

Evaluation of Cr(III) Adsorption Using Activated Jatropha curcas Shell: Kinetics and Energy Recovery
Abstract This study investigates the potential of conditioned Jatropha curcas shell residues as sustainable and cost-effective bioadsorbents for the removal of Cr(III) from aqueous solutions. Adsorption performance was evaluated under varying conditions of pH (3.05 and 3.89), tem...

A proof-theoretic bound extraction theorem for monotone operators in Banach spaces
Abstract We utilize a proof-theoretically tame approach to the dual of an abstract Banach space in systems amenable to methods from proof mining, as recently introduced by the author, to provide similar such systems with accompanying logical metatheorems on the extraction of unif...

Abstract Spindlin1 (SPIN1) is an epigenetic reader involved in oncology, whose third Tudor domain remains largely underexplored. Here, we applied a minimalist pruning strategy to the 26-mer peptide DOCpep3 to identify the core pharmacophore for SPIN1 Tudor 3 domain binding. This...

Q-VOLT: A Quantum–Classical Pipeline for Multi-Period Data-Center Siting on the IEEE 30-Bus System
Q-VOLT is a hybrid quantum–classical pipeline for the multi-period data-center siting-and-scheduling problem on the IEEE 30-bus system with real California-ISO locational-marginal-price data and published hyperscale workload traces. I formulate the problem as a QUBO with per-job...

Abstract Autoimmune uveitis is a recurrent, vision-threatening inflammatory disease that demands precise and ongoing treatment. However, current therapies have limitations in ocular targeting, in controlling reactive oxygen species (ROS), and in regulating key inflammatory pathwa...

Meltwater transport and mixing-layer growth near the ice–ocean interface
Ice melting into saline water plays a fundamental role in the dynamics near the ice–ocean interface in polar oceans. The physics of meltwater transport involves a non-trivial interplay between the thermodynamics at the interface, hydrodynamic transport in the bulk and the propert...

Abstract Stability degradation plagues both regular n-i-p and inverted p-i-n perovskite solar cells (PSCs), with the organic hole transport layer (HTL) constituting a key restricting factor. Poly(triarylamine) (PTAA) possesses intrinsic polymer characteristics and excellent therm...
