Economic policy uncertainty and common prosperity within the enterprise: Evidence from the Chinese market.

In the continuous development of the Chinese economy, the desire for common prosperity among the people has become increasingly strong. However, the complex domestic and international situations, along with the economic uncertainties post-pandemic, have introduced significant uncertainties into government economic policies. In the long term, this uncertainty has a profound impact on intra-enterprise common prosperity, affecting society at large.

A mitochondria-targeted nano-platform for pancreatic cancer therapy.

Liposome is a conventional drug delivery system which has been widely used in the pharmacy field. However, its applications are greatly restricted in clinical practice by the disadvantages of cholesterol and nonselective distribution. Herein, a novel platform for anti-tumor drug delivery was developed by incorporating an amphiphilic stachydrine-octadecane conjugate (SS) as the mitochondria-targeting molecule onto the triptolide-liposome surfaces (SS-TP LPs).

Insights into the underlying effect of Fe vacancy defects on the adsorption affinity of goethite for arsenic immobilization.

Goethite is a commonly found iron (hydr)oxide in soils and sediments that has been proven to possess abundant defects in structures. However, the underlying impact of these defects in goethite on arsenic immobilization remains unclear. In this study, goethite samples with abundant, moderate, and sparse defects were synthesized to evaluate their arsenic adsorption capacities.

Celastrol-conjugated chitosan oligosaccharide for the treatment of pancreatic cancer.

Celastrol is a promising antitumor drug candidate, but the poor water solubility and cytotoxicity limit its clinical application. Herein, we synthesized a Celastrol (Cel)-chitosan oligosaccharide (CSO) conjugate (Cel-CSO) for drug delivery. Celastrol was conjugated to a CSO backbone via amide bond formation, which was verified by infrared spectrum (IR) analyses.

Manganese enhances the immobilization of trace cadmium from irrigation water in biological soil crust.

The effect of biological soil crust (BSC) in paddy field on the immobilization and removal of heavy metal from irrigation water is an important issue. BSC was cultured in solutions with different concentrations of manganese (Mn) salt and cadmium (Cd) sulfate for 15 days. We analyzed the Mn, Cd and Fe contents in the BSC and investigated the effects of Mn salt on the Cd distribution in different binding-forms in BSC as well.

Photoinduced hydroxyl radical and photocatalytic activity of samarium-doped TiO(2) nanocrystalline.

Sm(3+)-doped TiO(2) nanocrystalline has been prepared by sol-gel auto-combustion technique and characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) method, and also UV-vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS). These Sm(3+)-doped TiO(2) samples were tested for methylene blue (MB) decomposition and *OH radical formation. The analysis of *OH radical formation on the sample surface under UV irradiation was performed by fluorescence technique with using terephthalic acid, which readily reacted with *OH radical to produce highly fluorescent product, 2-hydroxyterephthalic acid.
