TL;DR: DC and AC electrical conductivity of bionanocomposites based on the immiscible polymer blend poly(epsilon-caprolactone)/polylactide (PCL/PLA, w/w 70/30), loaded with multiwall carbon nanotubes (CNT), were studied and indicated a conventional tunnel effect.

TL;DR: This review has addressed not only the question of the application of chemometrics for aroma analysis but also of the use of different analytical instruments in this field, highlighting the research needed for future focus.
Abstract: Smelling is one of the five senses, which plays an important role in our everyday lives. Volatile compounds are, for example, characteristics of food where some of them can be perceivable by humans because of their aroma. They have a great influence on the decision making of consumers when they choose to use a product or not. In the case where a product has an offensive and strong aroma, many consumers might not appreciate it. On the contrary, soft and fresh natural aromas definitely increase the acceptance of a given product. These properties can drastically influence the economy; thus, it has been of great importance to manufacturers that the aroma of their food product is characterized by analytical means to provide a basis for further optimization processes. A lot of research has been devoted to this domain in order to link the quality of, e.g., a food to its aroma. By knowing the aromatic profile of a food, one can understand the nature of a given product leading to developing new products, which are...

TL;DR: This work quantifies the level of coiling in calyptraeids, a family of mostly uncoiled limpets, and shows that coiled shells have re-evolved at least once within this family, and is the first example of the re–evolution of a complex character via a change in developmental timing (heterochrony) rather than achange in location of gene expression (heterotopy).
Abstract: Gastropods have lost the quintessential snail feature, the coiled shell, numerous times in evolution. In many cases these animals have developed a limpet morphology with a capshaped shell and a lar...
