• In December 2022, Prinovis, part of Bertelsmann, closed its rotogravure printing site in Dresden, Germany, which operated five printing presses. It then permanently shut its Liverpool site, the UK’s last gravure plant, which operated four machines. In a final turn of the screw, the firm announced it would exit the rotogravure printing market altogether, with the closure of its Ahrensburg printing plant in Germany in January 2024. The plant operates nine printing presses.

• Based on X-ray videography and anatomical observations, the group found that the crabs produced sounds by vertically vibrating the scaphognathite (located behind its jaw), drumming it against the walls of the chamber containing the scaphognathite.

Picture silane as a sort of building block—it contains silicon and hydrogen and acts as a precursor for making silicon-based anode materials.

• The researchers say that while practical uses for their engineered enzyme could still be a decade away or more, its development opens the possibility that siloxanes could one day be degraded biologically. "For example, natural organisms could evolve in siloxane-rich environments to catalyze a similar reaction, or further improved versions of laboratory-evolved enzymes such as this one could possibly be used to treat siloxane contaminants in wastewater," Arnold says.
