Three mixed-ligand coordination polymers, [Cu(oda)(2,2'-bipy)](2) (1), Ni(2)(oda)(2)(4,4'-bipy)·DMF (2), and [{Ni(oda)(H(2)O)(2)}(2)(μ-4,4'-bipy)]·2H(2)O (3) were synthesized and characterized. Complex 1 features a 1D chain via intermolecular π-π interactions. Complex 2 is a novel 3D microporous coordination polymer with 1D polarized channels. Complex 3 forms a 3D network via extensive hydrogen bonding interactions. Thermogravimetric analyses have been studied. The chemical sensing properties have been investigated in situ by quartz crystal microbalance (QCM). Complex 1 has a good sensitivity to toluene, complexes 2 and 3 have exceptionally high selectivity and sensitivity to water over organic solvents.

Microgels, combining the properties of hydrogels and microparticles, are emerging as versatile materials for varied applications such as drug delivery and sensing, although the precise control of particle size remains a challenge. Advances in synthetic methodologies have provided new tools for tailoring of properties, however costs and scalability of the processes remains a limitation. We report here the water-based synthesis of a library of -isopropylacrylamide-based microgels covalently crosslinked with varying contents of ,-methylenebisacrylamide.

Numerous challenges are posed by the extra-terrestrial environment for space farming and various technological growth systems are being developed to allow for microgreens' cultivation in space. Microgreens, with their unique nutrient profiles, may well integrate the diet of crew members, being a natural substitute for chemical food supplements. However, the space radiation environment may alter plant properties, and there is still a knowledge gap concerning the effects of various types of radiation on plants and specifically on the application of efficient and rapid methods for selecting new species for space farming, based on their radio-resistance.
