Article Synopsis
- Reducing the stages and energy costs in recycling is important for the environment; using deep eutectic solvents (DES) can improve traditional acid methods, making them safer and more eco-friendly.
- This study explores using DES, particularly Ethaline, in recycling silver from solar panels, achieving an impressive 99.9% leaching efficiency from silicon cell scraps at 75 °C.
- Results indicate that the concentration of iron(iii) chloride affects silver recovery kinetics, and high-quality silver can be electrodeposited under oxygen-free conditions at 50 °C after leaching.
Cancer immunotherapy has made impressive advances in improving the outcome of patients affected by malignant diseases. Nonetheless, some limitations still need to be tackled to more efficiently and safely treat patients, in particular for those affected by solid tumors. One of the limitations is related to the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME), which impairs anti-tumor immunity.

We have previously shown that primary patient-derived and optical barcoded single-cell-derived clones function as interconnected networks. Here, we investigated the role of exosomes as a route for inter-clonal communication mediating PDHGG migration and invasion.

- There are strict laws for clinical research, but many authors and editors don't always follow them correctly.
- An investigation looked at 456 studies from a hospital in France and found lots of problems with how they reported their ethics approvals.
- Researchers want better checks from scientific editors and publishers to make sure that ethical rules are followed in research.
