Effects of dual-message tactile sliding takeover requests on takeover performance in an automated driving system.

Objective: The present study aimed to explore the effects of various tactile takeover requests (TORs) (i.e., tactile sliding TOR and traditional vibration TOR) on the takeover performance in an automated driving system.

MXene: A wonderful nanomaterial in antibacterial.

Increasing bacterial infections and growing resistance to available drugs pose a serious threat to human health and the environment. Although antibiotics are crucial in fighting bacterial infections, their excessive use not only weakens our immune system but also contributes to bacterial resistance. These negative effects have caused doctors to be troubled by the clinical application of antibiotics.

Rapid, Selective Extraction of Silver from Complex Water Matrices with a Metal-Organic Framework/Oligomer Composite Constructed via Supercritical CO.

Every year vast quantities of silver are lost in various waste streams; this, combined with its limited, diminishing supply and rising demand, makes silver recovery of increasing importance. Thus, herein, we report a controllable, green process to produce a host of highly porous metal-organic framework (MOF)/oligomer composites using supercritical carbon dioxide (ScCO ) as a medium. One resulting composite, referred to as MIL-127/Poly-o-phenylenediamine (PoPD), has an excellent Ag adsorption capacity, removal efficiency (>99 %) and provides rapid Ag extraction in as little as 5 min from complex liquid matrices.

Highly selective isomer fluorescent probes for distinguishing homo-/cysteine from glutathione based on AIE.

Two highly selective OFF-ON isomer fluorescent probes (1 and 2) for homo-/cysteine were designed and synthesized. The pyrene modified tetraphenylethylene derivative with AIE was used as luminescent group while maleimide was used as recognition group. These two isomer probes were found to be nearly nonfluorescent when treated with GSH.
