Integrating Polyoxometalates and Silver Clusters into Atomically Precise Molecular Heterojunction.

The Ag cluster-POM assemblies have been shown to possess interesting and potentially useful properties. However, there is no precedent example of atomically precise Ag cluster-POM assemblies showing heterojunction effects in photocatalysis. Herein, the synthesis and total structure determination of the periodically distributed molecular heterojunction [Ag(SCy)(CHCN)(PWO)] (Ag-PW) are reported.

Progress in the development of nanosensitizers for X-ray-induced photodynamic therapy.

In recent years, photodynamic therapy has been applied in cancer treatment because of its high selectivity and marginal invasion properties. However, the excitation light used has limited ability to penetrate tissue, which creates a stumbling block for its future development. To overcome this, X-rays have been introduced to transmit energy to deeper tissues.

[Etiology of acute respiratory tract infection in hospitalized children in Suzhou from 2005 to 2011].

Objective: To elucidate the etiology of acute respiratory tract infection (ARI) in hospitalized children in Suzhou from 2005 to 2011.

Methods: A total of 10 243 hospitalized children with ARI in Children's Hospital Affiliated to Soochow University from September 2005 to October 2011 were enrolled in the study. The clinical information was collected; and the nasopharyngeal aspiration fluid and serum samples were sent for multi-pathogen detection.

[Effect of diameter-controlled Ti-TiO2 nanotubes on the adhesion of osteoblast and fibroblast].

Objective: To study the effect of Ti-TiO2 nanotubes with different diameters on the adhesion of fibroblast and osteoblast, and to find which diameter was more favorable for cells' respective adhesion.

Methods: Pure titanium sheets were polished and then anodized at different potentials for 1 h with Ti as anode and Pt as cathode. TiO2 nanotubes formed at 1, 5, 10 and 20 V potentials served as experimental groups and polished pure titanium served as control group.

[Determination of linderane in root tuber of Lindera aggregata by HPLC].

Objective: To provide scientific basis for quality control of Lindera aggregata.

Method: HPLC analytical method was established using a Lichrospher C18 column and acetonitrile-water (56:44) as the mobile phase, detected at 235 nm.

Result: The linear range of linderane is between 0.
