ABSTRACT Normally, the properties of natural latex are not stable, for example, viscosity and volatile fatty acids, due to the nonrubber components that affect the quality of the latex. The objective here was to develop and compare the adhesive properties of natural latex by using furfural at different ratios. Concentrated natural latex (60% rubber) with a high ammonia rate was used, and two types of furfural were used: synthetic furfural and natural furfural from sugarcane bagasse. The phenolic resin was also compared as a tackifier resin. We found that increasing the furfural concentration in natural latex increased the viscosity of the latex. However, for a given concentration, furfural and phenolic resin gave similar adhesion properties in natural latex. Furfural at 10 parts per hundred of rubber gave the best adhesive property of natural latex. Beyond this furfural concentration, the natural latex became solid. There were no significance differences in adhesion properties between synthetic and natural furfurals in the natural latex. The relationship between viscosity and adhesive properties of the natural latex with furfural is proposed. This research shows the potential to develop an eco-friendly natural adhesive with furfural that has good quality and no dangerous solvent.

Contemporary state of the distribution of mycoplasma diseases of cultivated crops in Ukraine was analyzed. The changes of the physiological state of plant cells under the impact of mollicutes were investigated. It was demonstrated that there is temporary increase in the activity of peroxidase, catalase, polyphenoloxidase, phenylalanine-ammonia-lyase at the early stages of interaction. The adhesive properties are changed in the mollicutes under the impact of plant lectin; there is synthesis of new polypeptides. It was determined that the phytopathogenic acholeplasma is capable of producing a complex of proteolytic enzymes into the culture me- dium. It was concluded that when plant cells are infected with acholeplasma, a number of signaling interactions and metabolic transformations condition the recognition of pathogenesis and ensure the aggregate response of a plant to stress in the form of defense reactions. It was assumed that some specifi cities of the biology of phy- topathogenic acholeplasma determine their avoiding the immune mechanisms of plants and promote long-term persistence of mollicutes.

<div>Fungal adhesion is fundamental to processes ranging from</div><div>infection to food production yet, robust, population-scale</div><div>quantification methods for yeast surface adhesion are lacking. We developed a microfluidic assay to distinguish the effects of genetic background and solution conditions on adhesion. This approach will enable the rapid screening of yeast adhesive properties for anti-fouling surfaces and a host of other applications.</div>

Classical methods of material testing become extremely complicated or impossible at micro-/nanoscale. At the same time, depth-sensing indentation (DSI) can be applied without much change at various length scales. However, interpretation of the DSI data needs to be done carefully, as length-scale dependent effects, such as adhesion, should be taken into account. This review paper is focused on different DSI approaches and factors that can lead to erroneous results, if conventional DSI methods are used for micro-/nanomechanical testing, or testing soft materials. We also review our recent advances in the development of a method that intrinsically takes adhesion effects in DSI into account: the Borodich–Galanov (BG) method, and its extended variant (eBG). The BG/eBG methods can be considered a framework made of the experimental part (DSI by means of spherical indenters), and the data processing part (data fitting based on the mathematical model of the experiment), with such distinctive features as intrinsic model-based account of adhesion, the ability to simultaneously estimate elastic and adhesive properties of materials, and non-destructive nature.
