Rational design of hollow flower-like MoS/MoC heterostructures in N-doped carbon substrate for synergistically accelerating adsorption-electrocatalysis of polysulfides in lithium sulfur batteries.

Lithium-sulfur (Li-S) batteries have been garnered significant attention in the energy storage field due to their high theoretical specific capacity and low cost. However, Li-S batteries suffer from issues like the shuttle effect, poor conductivity, and sluggish chemical reaction kinetics, which hinder their practical development. Herein, a novel hollow flower-like architecture composed of MoS/MoC heterostructures in N-doped carbon substrate (H-MoS/MoC/NC NFs), which were well designed and prepared through a calcination-vulcanization method, were used as high-efficiency catalyst to propel polysulfide redox kinetics.

Unveiling the antibacterial strategies and mechanisms of MoS: a comprehensive analysis and future directions.

Antibiotic resistance is a growing problem that requires alternative antibacterial agents. MoS, a two-dimensional transition metal sulfide, has gained significant attention in recent years due to its exceptional photocatalytic performance, excellent infrared photothermal effect, and impressive antibacterial properties. This review presents a detailed analysis of the antibacterial strategies and mechanism of MoS, starting with its morphology and synthesis methods and focusing on the different interaction stages between MoS and bacteria.

Protocol to identify functional doppelgängers and verify biomedical gene expression data using doppelgangerIdentifier.

Functional doppelgängers (FDs) are independently derived sample pairs that confound machine learning model (ML) performance when assorted across training and validation sets. Here, we detail the use of doppelgangerIdentifier (DI), providing software installation, data preparation, doppelgänger identification, and functional testing steps. We demonstrate examples with biomedical gene expression data.
