Dislocation-induced stop-and-go kinetics of interfacial transformations

Nature, Published online: 27 July 2022; doi:10.1038/s41586-022-04880-1 Environmental transmission electron microscopy is used to reveal that mismatch dislocations modulate the interfacial transformation of copper oxide to copper metal in an intermittent manner. Press Release Distribution Service

Technique for the isolation of volatile food compounds optimized

A research team has succeeded in automating an established method for the gentle, artifact-avoiding isolation of volatile food ingredients. As the team’s current comparative study now shows, automated solvent-assisted flavor evaporation (aSAFE) offers significant advantages over the manual process. It achieves higher yields on average and reduces the risk of contamination by nonvolatile substances. Continue…

A paper battery with water switch

A team of researchers has developed a water-activated disposable paper battery. The researchers suggest that it could be used to power a wide range of low-power, single-use disposable electronics — such as smart labels for tracking objects, environmental sensors and medical diagnostic devices — and minimize their environmental impact.

Swimming without brains and muscles

Bacteria and other unicellular organisms developed sophisticated ways to actively navigate their way, despite being comparably simple structures. To reveal these mechanisms, researchers used oil droplets as a model for biological microswimmers. Biologists investigated the navigation strategies of microswimmers in several studies: how they navigate against the current in narrow channels, how they mutually affect…

Communication makes hunting easier for chimpanzees

Similar to humans, chimpanzees use communication to coordinate their cooperative behavior — such as during hunting. When chimpanzees produce a specific vocalization, known as the ‘hunting bark’, they recruit more group members to the hunt and capture their prey more effectively, researchers have now shown.
