Charge stabilization via electron exchange: excited charge separation in symmetric, central triphenylamine derived, dimethylaminophenyl–tetracyanobutadiene donor–acceptor conjugates

This article hypothesizes and demonstrates a new mechanism to stabilize the charge separated states via the process of electron exchange among the different acceptor entities in multimodular donor–acceptor conjugates. This work constitutes the first example of stabilizing charge-separated states via the process of electron exchange.

Chemical and Genetic Studies on the Formation of Pyrrolones During the Biosynthesis of Cytochalasans (open access)

Chemical and Genetic Studies on the Formation of Pyrrolones During the Biosynthesis of Cytochalasans

This article investigates the role of the highly conserved α,β-hydrolase enzymes PyiE and ORFZ during the biosynthesis of pyrichalasin H and the ACE1 metabolite, respectively, using gene knockout and complementation techniques. Taken together the results suggest that the α,β-hydrolase enzymes are essential for first ring cyclisation, but the precise nature of the intermediates remains to be determined.

Effect of increased embryonic temperature during developmental windows on survival, morphology and oxygen consumption of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) (open access)

Effect of increased embryonic temperature during developmental windows on survival, morphology and oxygen consumption of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

This article applies a developmental 3-dimensional critical window experimental design for a vertebrate, using time, temperature, and phenotypic response (i.e., variables measured). To assess thermal effects on fish development, the authors examined trout hatchling phenotypes following rearing in constant temperatures (5, 10, 15 and 17.5 °C) and following exposure to increased temperature above 5 °C during specific developmental windows.

I Cannot See You—The Perspectives of Deaf Students to Online Learning during COVID-19 Pandemic: Saudi Arabia Case Study

This article investigates the e-learning experiences of deaf students, focusing on the college of the Technical and Vocational Training Corporation (TVTC) in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia (KSA). Particularly, it studies the challenges and concerns faced by deaf students during the sudden shift to online learning. Results report problems with internet access, inadequate support, and inaccessibility of content from learning systems, among other issues. The authors argue that institutions should consider a procedure to create more accessible technology that is adaptable during the pandemic to serve individuals with diverse needs.
