Implications of scale up flexible plastic packaging recycling in the United States.

Flexible plastic packaging (FPP) is a growing waste source in the United States. Currently, FPP has a recycling rate of only 2% in the U.S.

Intraocular Metastatic Lung Adenocarcinoma Masquerading as an Intermediate Uveitis.

Purpose: To report on the clinical and cytopathological features of metastatic lung adenocarcinoma to the eye masquerading as an intermediate uveitis.

Methods: Retrospective chart review.

Results: A 63-year-old woman with a history of lung adenocarcinoma in remission presented with progressive vision loss and floaters in the right eye.

Isolation and structure of broad SIV-neutralizing antibodies reveal a proximal helical MPER epitope recognized by a rhesus multi-donor class.

The membrane-proximal external region (MPER) of the HIV-1 envelope is a target for broadly neutralizing antibodies (bnAbs), and vaccine-elicited MPER-directed antibodies have recently been reported from a human clinical trial. In this study, we sought to identify MPER-directed nAbs in simian immunodeficiency virus (SIV)-infected rhesus macaques. We isolated four lineages of SIV MPER-directed nAbs from two SIV-infected macaques.

Excitons in the fractional quantum Hall effect.

Excitons, Coulomb-driven bound states of electrons and holes, are typically composed of integer charges. However, in bilayer systems influenced by charge fractionalization, a more interesting form of interlayer exciton can emerge, in which pairing occurs between constituents that carry fractional charges. Despite numerous theoretical predictions for these fractional excitons, their experimental observation has remained unexplored.
