Achieving stable Zn metal anode via a hydrophobic and Zn-conductive amorphous carbon interface.

High security and low cost enable aqueous zinc ion batteries (AZIBs) with huge application potential in large-scale energy storage. Nevertheless, the loathsome dendrite and side reactions of Zn anode are harmful to the cycling lifespan of AZIBs. Here, a new type of thin amorphous carbon (AC) interface layer (∼100 nm in thickness) is in-situ constructed on the Zn foil (Zn@AC) via a facile low-temperature chemical vapor deposition (LTCVD) method, which owns a hydrophobic peculiarity and a high Zn transference rate.

Iron-doped nickel-cobalt bimetallic phosphide nanowire hybrids for solid-state supercapacitors with excellent electromagnetic interference shielding.

The development of flexible and wearable electronics subjects to the limited energy density and accompanying electromagnetic pollution. With a high theoretical specific capacity, nickel-cobalt bimetallic phosphide (NiCoP) is considered to be potential cathode materials for supercapacitor. However, the pristine NiCoP fails to display excellent electrochemical performance due to its inferior rate performance and cycling stability.

as a Cause of Disease: First Isolation from Farmed Chickens.

is a facultative anaerobic Gram-positive coccus belonging to the Rothia genus of the family. While is considered an opportunistic pathogen, to date few studies have investigated its pathogenicity and drug resistance. In January 2022, chickens at a poultry farm in China's Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region became ill and died.

Oleic acid-induced steatosis model establishment in LMH cells and its effect on lipid metabolism.

Hepatic steatosis is a highly prevalent liver disease, yet research on it is hampered by the lack of tractable cellular models in poultry. To examine the possibility of using organoids to model steatosis and detect it efficiently in leghorn male hepatocellular (LMH) cells, we first established steatosis using different concentrations of oleic acid (OA) (0.05-0.

Influence of intervention treatment by "heat-clearing and diuresis-promoting" prescription on NALP3, an inflammatory factor in acute gouty arthritis.

Background: To investigate the efficacy of Qingre Lishi Decoction(QLRD), in the treatment of acute gouty arthritis, and its influence on the expression levels of inflammatory factor nucleotide-binding oligomerization domain-like receptor(NALP 3) in patients.

Methods: A total of 78 patients with acute gouty arthritis admitted to our hospital were randomly divided into the control group and the observation group, with 39 cases in each group. The control group was given basic treatment and colchicine tablets, and the observation group was given "heat-clearing and diuresis-promoting" prescription for intervention treatment.

Identification of MHC I class genes in two Platyrrhini species.

The major histocompatibility complex is a diverse gene family that plays a crucial role in the adaptive immune system. In humans, the MHC class I genes consist of the classical loci of HLA-A, -B, and -C, and the nonclassical loci HLA-E, -F, and -G. In Platyrrhini species, few MHC class I genes have been described so far and were classified as MHC-E, MHC-F, and MHC-G, with MHC-G possibly representing a classical MHC class I locus while there were arguments about the existence of the MHC-B locus in Platyrrhini.

[Cloning and characterization of p43 cDNA from Trichinella spiralis].

Objective: To clone and characterize the p43 cDNA from muscle larvae cDNA library of Trichinella spiralis (Ts) Chinese isolate.

Methods: PCR technique was used to amplify the target cDNA from muscle larvae cDNA library. After cloned in pMD18T vector, it was transformed into E.

[Expression and antigenicity analysis of p46000 antigen from newborn larvae of Trichinella spiralis].

Objective: To express and analyze p46000 antigen from newborn larvae of Trichinella spiralis.

Methods: p46000 antigen gene was subcloned to the pET28a expression system by PCR. The recombinant transformant was induced by IPTG and the antigenicity was analyzed with ELISA and Western blotting.

[Immunoscreening of newborn larvae cDNA library of Trichinella spiralis].

Objective: To obtain antigenic genes encoding newborn larvae antigens of Trichinella spiralis.

Methods: Newborn larvae (NBL) cDNA library of Trichinella spiralis was screened using the infected swine serum and positive clones were sequenced and analysed.

Results: 158 positive clones were obtained from 4.
