DOI: 10.1002/cbic.201700311
Abstract: 31+30+31: Ye and colleagues have synthesized a branched 92-mer of arabinogalactan-a major component of the cell wall of M. tuberculosis-by linking a linear oligogalactan 30-mer with two d-arabinofuranose 31-mers. Their approach capitalizes on sequential, one-pot glycosylation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11113-020-09619-2
Abstract: Children with additional siblings appear to fare worse on a variety of developmental and educational outcomes across social contexts. Yet, the causal relation between sibship size and later attainment remains dubious, as factors that influence… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.fooweb.2018.e00097
Abstract: Abstract Experimental studies have shown how microplastics are taken up by various aquatic organisms. Most of these studies have been carried out with small ( 200 μm and ABS > 100 μm) in comparison to primary microplastic beads (90 μm).… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1367-2630/aad457
Abstract: Pattern formation and selection are fundamental, omnipresent principles in nature—from small cells up to geological scales. InE. coli bacteria, for example, self-organized pole-to-pole oscillations ofMin proteins—resembling a short standingwave—ensure correct positioning of the cell division… read more here.
