The freshwater common pond snail Lymnaea stagnalis produces embryos that complete direct development, hatching as shell-bearing individuals within 10 days despite relatively low ambient calcium and carbonate availability. This development is impaired by removal of ambient total calcium but not by removal of bicarbonat…

Mannose-substituted blue-fluorescent cationic conjugated polyelectrolyte ( P1 ) and yellow-fluorescent neutral conjugated oligomer ( 6 ) are synthesized via the combination of Suzuki coupling polymerization and click chemistry. The spectral overlap between the emission of P1 and the absorption of 6 allows one to blend…

The photoreactivity of two iron(II)−styrylpyridine frameworks Fe(stpy) 4 (NCSe) 2 (stpy = 4-styrylpyridine) has been investigated for the very first time in a crystalline solid. A quantitative cis-to-trans isomerization of stilbenoids is shown to occur in the confined environment of the inorganic solid. The photochrom…

We demonstrate a strategy for producing polymer bioconjugates which display both enzymatic and thermal responsiveness. This is achieved by combining the thermo-responsive properties of poly(2-isopropyl-2-oxazoline) (PiPrOx) with the self-assembly properties of fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl-tyrosine (Fmoc-Y), controlled by…

Abstract Electronegativity (EN) can be used to estimate the bulk modulus of different types of crystal materials on the basis of a newly proposed bulk modulus model. The bulk moduli of A N B 8− N and A m B n type compounds, spinel‐ and chalcopyrite‐structured compounds as well as polymorphic ABO 4 compounds are calcul…
