Methods: Disc shaped specimens (n = 120) were milled using zirconia blocks (YZ-HT [HT], YZ-ST [ST], and YZ-XT [XT]) with a diameter of 15.0 mm and a thickness of 0.
Article Synopsis
- The report highlights the efficiency of SbSe nanorods (NRs) in converting light to heat for solar thermal applications, achieving around 57.8% efficiency with specific lasers and heating hybrid membranes to ≈59°C in just 15 minutes.* -
- Despite their advantages, SbSe NRs have a limited evaporation rate due to hydrophobicity, which restricts water movement to the heated areas, leading to less effective solar evaporation.* -
- A new macro-channel imprinting technique improves water transport in these hybrid membranes, boosting evaporation efficiency to ≈148% under strong lighting and achieving effective heavy metal removal from water, meeting WHO standards for safe drinking water.*
Lipid-polymer hybrid-vesicles interrupt nucleation of amyloid fibrillation.
RSC Chem Biol
November 2024
Solubility and aggregation of proteins are crucial factors for their functional and further biological roles. Aggregation of proteins , such as the amyloid beta (Aβ) peptide into fibrils, is significantly modulated by membrane lipids, abundantly present in cells. We developed a model membrane system, composed of lipid hybrid-vesicles bearing embedded hydrophilic polymers to study the aggregation of the Aβ peptide.

Patients And Methods: A multicenter cross-sectional study involving 1,134 PsA patients from 25 referral centers across seven regions was conducted. Demographic and clinical characteristics, comorbidities, joint involvement, extra-articular manifestations, and disease activity measures were evaluated across regions.
