Multilayered PdSe/Perovskite Schottky Junction for Fast, Self-Powered, Polarization-Sensitive, Broadband Photodetectors, and Image Sensor Application.

Group-10 transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) with distinct optical and tunable electrical properties have exhibited great potential for various optoelectronic applications. Herein, a self-powered photodetector is developed with broadband response ranging from deep ultraviolet to near-infrared by combining FA Cs PbI perovskite with PdSe layer, a newly discovered TMDs material. Optoelectronic characterization reveals that the as-assembled PdSe/perovskite Schottky junction is sensitive to light illumination ranging from 200 to 1550 nm, with the highest sensitivity centered at ≈800 nm.

Enhanced expression of cytosolic fatty acid binding protein and fatty acid uptake during liver regeneration in rats.

Background/aims: Cytoplasmic liver fatty acid binding protein (L-FABP) has been suggested to be associated with cellular mitotic activity but the changes in L-FABP mRNA and protein levels during liver regeneration following partial hepatectomy (PHx) are not clear.

Methods: In the present study, we determined the time course of L-FABP mRNA expression and L-FABP levels following 70% PHx using Northern and Western blot, respectively. To elucidate one of the roles for L-FABP in PHx, [3H]-palmitic acid clearance in hepatocytes isolated from 24 h post-PHx and control animals was assessed.
