Synergistic anion-π interactions in peptidomimetic polyethers.

Anion-π interactions are crucial in various biological processes, such as enzyme catalysis and ion transport. Despite their significance, the exploitation of anion-π interactions in synthetic polymer systems remains underexplored. This study investigates anion-π interactions using chemically well-defined peptidomimetics guided by the composition of mussel foot proteins.

Mukbang- and Cookbang-watching status and dietary life of university students who are not food and nutrition majors.

Background/objectives: As watching food-related programs has become very popular among the young generation in Korea, this study sought to compare the Mukbang- and Cookbang-watching status of university students with their dietary life.

Subjects/methods: The participants were 380 students who were not majoring in food and nutrition at a university in Gyeonggi, Korea. Based on self- reports, the participants were grouped according to their frequency of watching Mukbang or Cookbang: frequent-watching (FW) 21.
