Numerous terrestrial invertebrates use secretions produced by themselves to build prey traps. Potentially, the structural as well as material properties of such constructions will reflect adaptations to wind disturbances, but most relevant studies only focus on trap structural characteristics. In this study, we examin…

The toxicity of engineered nanoparticles is expected to depend in part on their stability in biological systems. To assess the biodurability of engineered nanomaterials in the human digestive system, we adapted an in vitro assay previously used to evaluate the bioaccessibility of metals in contaminated soils. The comp…

The effect of hydrostatic pressure on the superconductivity in LiFeAs is investigated up to 1.8 GPa. The superconducting transition temperature, T c , decreases linearly with pressure at a rate of 1.5 K/GPa. The negative pressure coefficient of T c and the high ambient pressure T c indicate that LiFeAs is the high-pre…
