42. Supramolecular tripeptide self-assembly initiated at the surface of coacervates by polyelectrolyte exchange

        We are so proud of sharing this article from a recommendation of a follower. We also open a tag “Self-assembly” which is always exciting. In the article, the authors explore the idea of copying biological structures by forcing polymeric molecules to bond to each other in a certain way. Take a listen to the podcast because the approach is simple but genius.

45. Persistence of plastic debris and its colonization by bacterial communities after two decades on the abyssal seafloor

Image
          The presence of plastics in the oceans is currently a hot topic in the plastic research matter. A lot of suggestive analysis, revolutionary studies and new approaches to the problem have taken off in the last years and the article we share today follows that way. There are plastics also in the seafloor where bacteria communities grow; that’s the focus of the paper which hopefully will please you.
