Spindle-Shaped Ni-Fe-Layered Double Hydroxide: Effect of Etching Time on Flexible Energy Storage.

The rising demand for efficient energy storage in flexible electronics is driving the search for materials that are well-suited for the fabrication of these devices. Layered Double Hydroxides (LDHs) stand out as a remarkable material with a layered structure that embodies exceptional electrochemical properties. In this study, both double-shelled and single-shelled NiFe-Layered Double Hydroxide (LDH) particles are prepared using spindle-shaped MIL-101(Fe) as the template.

Human bocavirus infections in paediatric patients in a tertiary care hospital in Kerala, India.

Human bocaviruses (HBoVs) can cause respiratory illness in young children. Although the first HBoV infection in India was reported in 2010, very little information is available about its prevalence, clinical features, or geographic distribution in this country. This study was conducted using 136 respiratory samples from paediatric patients in a tertiary care hospital in Kerala, 21 of which tested positive for HBoV1 and were further characterized through VP1/VP2 gene sequencing.

Dasatinib-induced colitis in a patient with chronic myeloid leukaemia.

Dasatinib is a common treatment for chronic myeloid leukaemia with numerous side effects including gastrointestinal. We report a woman in her 50s who presented with haematochezia, weight loss and a positive faecal occult blood test. She was being treated for chronic myeloid leukaemia with dasatinib without the use of any concurrent medications, including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.

Photonic Inks with Dual-Layer Security Features by Encapsulation of Color Tunable Fluorescent Dyes in PMMA Colloidal Microspheres.

To counter economic terrorism by preventing counterfeit currency, documents and high-value commercial products, new-generation security inks with multiple safety features are required. Herein, color-tunable pyrylium and pyridinium dye-encapsulated polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) colloidal microspheres are reported to exhibiting brilliant emission and photonic properties. A combination of the PMMA colloidal photonic ink having structural color variation and the dye-encapsulated colloidal photonic ink with fluorescence modulation is used for security labeling.

Layer-number-dependent photoswitchability in 2D MoS-diarylethene hybrids.

Molybdenum disulfide (MoS) is a notable two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) with properties ideal for nanoelectronic and optoelectronic applications. With growing interest in the material, it is critical to understand its layer-number-dependent properties and develop strategies for controlling them. Here, we demonstrate a photo-modulation of MoS flakes and elucidate layer-number-dependent charge transfer behaviors.
