Complex interplay of science reasoning and vaccine hesitancy among parents in Shanghai, China.

The psychosocial underpinnings of vaccine hesitancy are complex. Research is needed to pinpoint the exact reasons why people hesitate to vaccinate themselves or their children against vaccine-preventable diseases. One possible reason are concerns that arise from a misunderstanding of vaccine science.

Public willingness to receive chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, and trichomoniasis vaccines: a scoping review.

Background: Sexually transmitted infections (STIs) like chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, and trichomoniasis contribute significantly to global morbidity and mortality. Researchers are pursuing vaccines for these STIs, and a clinical trial is currently underway for a chlamydia vaccine. However, there is little research available on individuals' willingness to receive chlamydia, gonorrhea, syphilis, and trichomoniasis vaccines.

Combinations of ethers and B(C6F5)3 function as hydrogenation catalysts.

It works ether way: Labile adducts of dialkyl ethers with the electrophilic borane B(C6F5)3 are shown to scramble HD to H2 and D2 and catalyze the hydrogenation of 1,1-diphenylethylene.

On the interaction of acetone with electrophilic metallocavitands having extended cavities.

We report the synthesis and characterization of tantalum-boronate trimetallic clusters of general formula {[Cp*Ta](3)(μ(2)-RB(O)(2))(3)(μ(2)-OH)(μ(2)-O)(2)(μ(3)-OH)} (R= 4-(C(6)H(5))(C(6)H(4)) (Ta(3)-4Ph), 4-(C(6)H(5)O)(C(6)H(4)) (Ta(3)-4OPh), 4-(C(7)H(7)O)(C(6)H(4)) (Ta(3)-4OBn), 4-(C(8)H(5))(C(6)H(4)) (Ta(3)-4PhEt), and 4-(C(12)H(7))(C(6)H(4)) (Ta(3)-4Napht)). All complexes have been characterized by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction. The trimetallic species feature a large Lewis acid type cavity allowing for substrate binding in both the solid and the liquid state using a unique electrostatic interaction and a hydrogen bond.

Erythrocyte survival time in Greyhounds as assessed by use of in vivo biotinylation.

Objective: To determine erythrocyte survival time in Greyhounds.

Animals: 6 Greyhounds used as blood donors and 3 privately owned non-Greyhound dogs.

Procedures: In vivo biotinylation of erythrocytes was performed by infusion of biotin-N-hydroxysuccinimide into each dog via a jugular vein catheter.
