Here the authors investigated how the "forever chemical" perfluorooctanoic acid binds to bovine serum albumin (BSA) using computational software to simulate its potential impact on essential human plasma proteins. They identify a possible, high-energy binding configuration that could persistently impair protein functions, underscoring the critical need for further research into the long-term health risks of per- and poly-fluoroalkyl substances exposure.

The authors examined the relationships between S&P 500 Technology and Financials equity sectors and their corresponding investment-grade fixed-income markets from 1995 to 2025.

The authors studied the impact of menstrual costs on the gender wage gap.

The authors studied optimized delivery routes to reduce travel times using different traveling salesman algorithms.

The authors investigated adoption rates of solar photovoltaic power at K-12 schools in California.

The authors looked at how the focus of someone's attention impacted what information was retained in their working memory.

The authors studied the effect of potassium bromate, a common food additive, to cell viability.

This article investigates whether induction heating can speed up static recrystallization in AISI 4130 steel compared with traditional radiant heating. It was found that induction-heated samples recrystallized faster, softened more quickly, and showed earlier microstructural changes like grain nucleation and pearlite spheroidization, suggesting induction heating could be a more efficient alternative for industrial metal heat treatments.

The authors looked at the ability of a convolutional neural network (CNN) to sort contaminated recycling, with varying levels of contamination. They found as contamination levels increased, the CNN faced more difficulty correctly classifying items.

The authors test the effect of petroleum-based and bio-based microplastics on the growth of two microalgae species.
