Energetic ionic liquids have a high potential to replace the traditional monopropellant hydrazine as a high-energy green propellant and can be widely used in aerospace technology. A high-energy ionic liquid─HEHN has also gained extensive attention from researchers. To explore the reaction mechanism of HEHN and establish a chemical kinetic model for high-energy ionic liquid propellants, 28 hydrogen abstraction reactions of HEH, which is the main decomposition product of HEHN, were investigated in this study.

Article Synopsis
  • * The study found that PA effectively inhibits L. monocytogenes growth, with a minimum bactericidal concentration determined at 80 μM, and can destroy established biofilms when activated by light.
  • * Further investigations revealed that PA's antibacterial action disrupts the bacterial cell wall and membrane, increases permeability, causes protein leakage, and damages DNA, demonstrating its potential application in reducing bacterial levels in food products like apple juice while maintaining quality.

Ecological quality assessment serves as a valuable tool for impartially measuring the effects of development and utilization activities on ecosystems, forming the bedrock of ecological governance. The ecological quality evaluation method, relying on a reference frame, takes into consideration the comparability of ecological quality, thus guaranteeing the presence of external benchmarks for the assessment results. However, present research on absolute assessment of ecological quality is limited, as the majority of existing studies focus on large-scale regions, and overlooking regional differences in smaller-scale regions to a certain extent.

Lignin accumulation can enhance the disease resistance of young tea shoots (). It also greatly reduces their tenderness, which indirectly affects the quality and yield of tea. Therefore, the regulation of lignin biosynthesis appears to be an effective way to balance tenderness and disease resistance in young tea shoots.

Introduction: Radon (Rn or radon) is a radioactive gas emitted from building materials, foundations, and soil. Children are especially susceptible to radon exposure, underscoring the need to assess indoor radon levels in kindergartens. This study monitored radon concentrations in 37 Beijing kindergartens from June to October 2023.

Sulfur-containing fuels, such as petroleum fuels, natural gas, and biofuels, produce SO, SO and other highly toxic gases upon combustion, which are harmful to human health and the environment, making it essential to understand their thermochemical properties. This study used high-level quantum chemistry calculations to determine thermodynamic parameters, including entropy, enthalpy, and specific heat capacity for an extensive set of sulfur-containing species. The B3LYP/cc-pVTZ level of theory was used for geometry optimization, vibration frequency, and dihedral scan calculations.

Purpose: Bullying victimization is a serious issue among college students, which might affect the development of their social behaviors. Based on the theory of stress and coping and emotion regulation theory, the present study examined the mediating role of self-compassion and trauma-related shame between bullying victimization and cyber aggression/prosocial behavior.

Patients And Methods: We gathered self-reporting data on bullying victimization, self-compassion, trauma-related shame, cyber aggression, and prosocial behavior from 634 college students in China using a three-wave longitudinal design survey.

Article Synopsis
  • Bacillus velezensis is a promising biological control agent capable of inhibiting pathogens, promoting plant growth, and addressing challenges from continuous cropping, but its cultivation conditions have not been thoroughly optimized for effectiveness as a dsRNA delivery vector.* -
  • A specific strain of Bacillus velezensis, HS-3, was found to employ enzymes like proteases and chitosanase to combat fungal pathogens, and optimizing its growth medium led to improved support for tomato plants in stressful conditions.* -
  • Introducing dsRNA targeting a nematode gene into HS-3 significantly reduced disease severity in tomato plants, highlighting the combined benefits of optimized enzyme production and genetic targeting in managing crop diseases.*

The Taihe Black-Bone silky fowl chicken (BB-sfc) is a renowned dietary and medicinal chicken globally recognized for its high nutritional and medicinal value. Compared to the local Black-Bone black-feathered chicken (BB-bfc), the Taihe silky fowl chicken has higher levels of amino acids, trace elements, and unsaturated fatty acids in their muscles, which offer anti-aging, anti-cancer, and immune enhancing benefits. Despite this, the unique nutritional components, genes, and proteins in Taihe silky fowl chicken muscles are largely unknown.

Persimmon anthracnose, a severe disease caused by the hemibiotrophic fungus Colletotrichum horii, poses a substantial threat to China's persimmon industry. Previous research showed that 'Kangbing Jianshi' cultivar exhibits strong resistance to anthracnose. Notably, 'Kangbing Jianshi' branches exhibit greater lignification compared with the susceptible 'Fuping Jianshi' cultivar.

There is currently no established method for evaluating human response timing across a range of naturalistic traffic conflict types. Traditional notions derived from controlled experiments, such as perception-response time, fail to account for the situation-dependency of human responses and offer no clear way to define the stimulus in many common traffic conflict scenarios. As a result, they are not well suited for application in naturalistic settings.

4-Nitrophenol (4-NP) is considered a priority organic pollutant with high toxicity. Many authors have been committed to developing efficient, green, and environmentally friendly technological processes to treat wastewater containing 4-NP. Here, we investigated how the addition of Ca affects the catalytic degradation of 4-NP with AgInS when exposed to light.

Cervical cancer (CC) is one of the leading causes of cancer-related death in females worldwide. Genome-wide association studies (GWASs) have identified CC-related susceptibility loci in HLA regions. To investigate the associations between HLA genes and cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) or cervical cancer (CC), six loci of HLA class I (HLA-A, -B, and -C) and II (HLA-DRB1, -DPB1, and -DQB1) were selected for genotyping, and the associations between these alleles or their haplotypes with CIN or CC risk or protection from disease were evaluated.

C-C chemokine receptor 5 (CCR5) plays a crucial role in the regulation of immune cell activation and migration as well as the progression of many cancers. We performed an in silico analysis using public data resources and found that the lung cancer patients with higher CCR5 expression had a notably better overall survival than those with lower CCR5 expression patients and CCR5 expression level is positive correlated with the infiltration of immune cells, such as B, CD8 T and CD4 T cells, in both lung adenocarcinoma and lung squamous cell cancer. In the present study, we investigated the association between the promoter polymorphism of CCR5 and nonsmall cell lung cancer (NSCLC).

Background: Exercise-induced hyperthermia preceding the onset of exertional heatstroke requires a rapid reduction in the body core temperature (T) to ensure safety. In recent years, phase-change material (PCM) cooling devices have been increasingly used for rapid cooling after hyperthermia due to their superior capacity for heat absorption.

Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the cooling performance and effectiveness of a PCM cooling blanket on heart rate (HR) and heart rate variability (HRV) recovery after exercise-induced hyperthermia.
