Protracted carbon burial following the Early Jurassic Toarcian Oceanic Anoxic Event (Posidonia Shale, Lower Saxony Basin, Germany) by Celestino, RFS, Ruhl, M, Dickson, AJ, Idiz, E, Jenkyns, HC, Leng, MJ, Mattioli, E, Minisini, D, Hesselbo, SP

“…The bio- and chemostratigraphic framework presented demonstrates that (i) the rock record of the T-OAE at the studied locality registered highly condensed sedimentation and/or multiple hiatuses and (ii) the deposition of organic-rich black shale extended significantly beyond the level of the T-OAE, thereby contrasting with well-studied sections of the Posidonia Shale in southern Germany but showing similarities with geographically nearby basins such as the Paris Basin (France). …”

Tapered angle microfluidic device for cell separation using hydrodynamic principle by Jamrus, Muhammad Asyraf, Ahmad, Mohd. Ridzuan

“…This design enables particle separation based on hydrodynamic theory and the sedimentation process. A mixture of 3 μm and 10 μm polystyrene (PS) microbeads were effectively separated when the taper angle approached 20 degrees, and separation continued until the taper angle reached 89 degrees. …”

Performance augmentation of retrofitted sustainable R1234yf in R134a air conditioning system using AI2O3 SiO2 hybrid nanolubricant by M. Z., Sharif, Wan Azmi, Wan Hamzah, Mohd Fairusham, Ghazali, Hafiz, Muhammad Ali

“…The stability test shows that the hybrid nanolubricant remained in superior stability after 6 months, with minimum particle aggregation and sedimentation. The AAC-Al2O3–SiO2/DEC PAG system achieved the best performance at 0.03% volume concentration with an average increment of 12.01%. …”

Chemical dispersant enhances microbial exopolymer (EPS) production and formation of marine oil/dispersant snow in surface waters of the subarctic northeast Atlantic by Suja, Laura Duran, Chen, Xindi, Summers, Stephen, Paterson, David M., Gutierrez, Tony

“…A notable feature of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill was the unprecedented formation of marine oil snow (MOS) that was observed in large quantities floating on the sea surface and that subsequently sedimented to the seafloor. Whilst the physical and chemical processes involved in MOS formation remain unclear, some studies have shown that extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) play a role in this process. …”

Enhancement of fexural modulus and strength of epoxy nanocomposites with the inclusion of functionalized GNPs using Tween 80 by Wan Ab Halim, Wan Zateel Aqmaer, Junid, Ramli Junid, Sazali, Norazliane, Siregar, Januar Parlaungan, Abd Razak, Jeeferie, Fitriyana, Deni Fajar, Cionita, Tezara, Jaafar, Jamiluddin

“…Characterization of nanoparticles using SEM shows that ARGNPs indicated a softer image representing a thinner layer of graphene stacks compared to T80GNP which has a tangible solid-looking image resulting from the sedimentation during the process of fltration. Elementally, both ARGNPs and T80GNPs were found to contain carbon, oxygen, and sulfur, as indicated by the EDX spectrum, with the C/O ratio for T80GNPs being 34.7% higher than that for ARGNPs, suggesting the adsorption of Tween 80 molecules on the GNPs after functionalization. …”

Crustal strain in the Marmara pull‐apart region associated with the propagation process of the North Anatolian Fault by Karakaş, Çagil, Armijo, R., Lacassin, R., Suc, J.-P., Melinte-Dobrinescu, M. C.

“…Our results provide tight constraints on the main pulse of folding associated with propagation of the tip of the NNAF: it took place in the late Miocene to earliest Pliocene (5.60 to 5.04 Ma), before deposition of undeformed Pliocene marine sediments. The folding is mostly coeval with the Messinian Salinity Crisis and accommodated several kilometers of shortening at the fault tip. …”

Role of different dendritic cell subsets in vivo by Abdul Rashid Mohammad Muzaki

“…In a dextran sodium sulphate (DSS) model of colonic inflammation, ablation of CD103+ CD11b- colonic DCs resulted in exacerbated colitis, while ablation of colonic CD103+ CD11b+ DCs resulted in resistance to colitis when subjected to the same DSS regiment. Hence our results highlight the opposing roles of these two distinct colonic DC subsets in controlling DSS-induced colonic inflammation. …”
