Design of MnO/TiO Nanostructures for Photocatalytic Removal of 2,4-D Herbicide.

The research and modification of semiconductors through different synthesis routes allow obtaining materials with optimal properties to induce new energy levels and improve charge separation efficiency. In this context, the sol-gel method was used to synthesize TiO-based materials doped with different percentages of MnO to evaluate their photocatalytic activity in the degradation of the herbicide 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) in water under UV irradiation. Characterization results revealed a reduction in crystallite size to 7.

[Emerging roles of neutrophils in the prognosis of colorectal cancer].

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is one of the most frequent and lethal cancers in Mexico and the world. It is noteworthy that globally, the incidence of CRC is increasing at a rate of 2% per year in patients younger than 50 years of age. Its early detection, primarily based on colonoscopy screening starting at 45 years of age, is an essential weapon to reduce its mortality.

A pilot randomised controlled trial of a telehealth-delivered brief 'Sleeping Sound Autism' intervention for autistic children.

Background: Access to behavioural sleep intervention is beneficial for autistic children, yet many families face barriers to access associated with location and time. Preliminary evidence supports telehealth-delivered sleep intervention. However, no studies have evaluated brief telehealth sleep intervention.

Highly efficient mobility, separation and charge transfer in black SnO-TiO structures with co-catalysts: the key step for the photocatalytic hydrogen evolution.

Oxygen vacancies and co-catalysts enhance photocatalytic hydrogen production by improving the charge carrier separation. Herein, the black SnO-TiO structure (BST) was synthesized for the first time by two consecutive methods. First, the sol-gel nucleation method allowed TiO to form on the SnO nanoparticles, creating a strong interaction and direct contact between them.
