Trans fatty acids and saturated fatty acids in margarines and spreads in Kazakhstan: Study period 2015–2021 by Kainaubek Toshtay, Ali Auyezov, Seitkhan Azat, Rosa Busquets

“…In contrast, in the period 2018–2021, the TFA average content was 14.2 ± 0.06 % in margarines, and 10.6 ± 0.05 % in spreads, which is still 7.4 and 6 times higher than the regulatory requirements of the Customs Union (Kazakhstan, Russia, Belarus, Kyrgyzstan) and the EU, respectively. The strong cause effect between TFA and cardiovascular diseases urges Kazakhstan and other countries to reduce TFA in commercial products. …”

A flexible PI/MXene triboelectric nanogenerator for energy harvesting and motion monitoring in table tennis by Dazhong Xu, Xiaoxin Ma, Yong Ma

“…While the open-circuit voltage (VOC, ∼105 V) and transferred charge (QSC, ∼63.14 nC) remain stable across 2–6 Hz, the short-circuit current (ISC) increases significantly from 14.91 μA at 2 Hz to 41.41 μA at 6 Hz. A strong linear correlation between applied force and output performance is observed, with VOC rising from 63.41 V at 10 N to 148.14 V at 50 N, ISC from 7.31 to 17.98 μA, and QSC from 29.69 to 69.73 nC, demonstrating the device’s potential for precise force sensing. …”
