On the Stability of Graphene-Based Aqueous Dispersions and Their Performance in Cement Mortar by Teresa Gerace, Sebastiano Candamano, Simone Bartucci, Carlo Poselle Bonaventura, Alfonso Policicchio, Raffaele Giuseppe Agostino, Milena Marroccoli, Antonio Telesca, Mariano Davoli, Andrea Scarcello, Lorenzo S. Caputi, Daniela Pacilè

“…Their exfoliation was analyzed using Raman spectroscopy, and the stability of the dispersions was quantitatively investigated by means of the static multiple light scattering (SMLS) technique. The sonication process enhanced the intensity of the 2D band of graphene technical grade, suggesting a partial degree of exfoliation, while the hydrothermal treatment with sodium cholate significantly promoted the stability of its dispersion. …”

Antarctic ice-shelf meltwater outflows in satellite radar imagery: ground-truthing and basal channel observations by Jakob Stanley Hamann, Thomas Arney, James David Kirkham, Paul Wachter, Karsten Gohl

“…We propose that the low radar backscatter signature of meltwater outflows is caused by stable stratification of the upper water column, driven by density contrasts from buoyant, low-salinity meltwater and surface current shear that reduce Bragg scattering waves. The resulting smooth water surfaces were observed adjacent to the surface expression of deep basal channels, documented in a helicopter survey along part of the Bellingshausen Sea ice edge. …”

AKRs confer oligodendrocytes resistance to differentiation-stimulated ferroptosis by Valentina Saverio, Emanuele Ferrario, Romina Monzani, Mara Gagliardi, Francesco Favero, Davide Corà, Claudio Santoro, Marco Corazzari

“…Our study demonstrates that the physiological and maturation-dependent increase in iron accumulation within oligodendrocytes acts as a pro-ferroptotic signal, countered by the concurrent expression of AKR1C1. Importantly, MS-related neuroinflammation contributes to the down-regulation of AKR1C1 through miRNA-mediated mechanisms, rendering mature oligodendrocytes more vulnerable to ferroptosis. …”
