We report the precise measurements of the cross section of e^{+}e^{-}→hadrons at center-of-mass energies from 3.645 to 3.871 GeV.

Their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic analysis, Mosher's ester, calculated ECD, and transition metal complex ECD methods. Notably, euchrestifolines A-C (1-3) are the first naturally occurring pyrrolidone carbazoles to be identified, while euchrestifolines D-F (4-6) represent rare carbazole alkaloids containing a phenylpropanyl moiety; euchrestifoline G (7) features a unique benzopyranocarbazole skeleton.

However, current DE differentiation methods required undefined components and/or expensive recombinant proteins, limiting their scalable manufacture and clinical use. Homogeneous DE differentiation in defined and recombinant protein-free conditions remains a major challenge.

Herein, we report the multiscale optimization of carbon nitride through the construction of porous curled carbon nitride nanosheets (CNA-B30) incorporating boron center/cyano group Lewis acid-base pairs (LABPs). The unique chemical and structural features of CNA-B30 extended the photoabsorption edges of π → π* and n → π* electronic transitions to 470 nm and 715 nm, respectively.

Here, we detected CTCs in mediastinal neuroblastoma (mNB) patients for use as diagnostic and treatment response predictive biomarkers. We employed a cascaded filter deterministic lateral displacement microfluidic chip (CFD-Chip) to enrich CTCs in peripheral blood from 32 mNB patients and 7 healthy children.
