Water splitting has emerged as a promising route for generating hydrogen as an alternative to conventional production methods. Finding affordable and scalable catalysts for the anodic half-reaction, the oxygen evolution reaction (OER), could help with its industrial widespread implementation. Iron-containing Ni-based catalysts have a competitive performance for the use in commercial alkaline electrolyzers.

Immune disorders arise from complex genetic and environmental factors, which lead to dysregulation at the cellular and inflammatory levels and cause tissue damage. Recent research highlights the crucial role of reactive antibodies in autoimmune diseases and graft rejection, but their complex determination poses challenges for clinical use. Therefore, our study aimed to ascertain whether the presence of reactive antibodies against membrane antigens in tissues from both animal models and humans could serve as biomarkers in patients with autoimmune disorders.

Transition metal-nitrogen-doped carbons (TMNCs) are a promising class of catalysts for the CO electrochemical reduction reaction. In particular, high CO-to-CO conversion activities and selectivities were demonstrated for Ni-based TMNCs. Nonetheless, open questions remain about the nature, stability, and evolution of the Ni active sites during the reaction.

The substitution of an organic liquid electrolyte with lithium-conducting solid materials is a promising approach to overcome the limitations associated with conventional lithium-ion batteries. These constraints include a reduced electrochemical stability window, high toxicity, flammability, and the formation of lithium dendrites. In this way, all-solid-state batteries present themselves as ideal candidates for improving energy density, environmental friendliness, and safety.
