Efficient Electrosynthesis of Hydrogen Peroxide Enabled by a Hierarchical Hollow RE-P-O (RE = Sm, La, Gd) Architecture with Open Channels.

The electrochemical two-electron oxygen reduction reaction (2e ORR) offers a sustainable pathway for the production of HO; however, the development of electrocatalysts with exceptional activity, selectivity, and long-term stability remains a challenging task. Herein, a novel approach is presented to addressing this challenge by synthesizing hierarchical hollow SmPO nanospheres with open channels via a two-step hydrothermal treatment. The produced compound demonstrates remarkable 2e selectivity, exceeding 93% across a wide potential range of 0.

Simplified PCNet with robustness.

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have garnered significant attention for their success in learning the representation of homophilic or heterophilic graphs. However, they cannot generalize well to real-world graphs with different levels of homophily. In response, the Poisson-Charlier Network (PCNet) (Li et al.

Mild ultrasound-assisted alkali de-esterification modified pectins: Characterization and structure-activity relationships in immunomodulatory effects.

Apple pectin (AP), a well-established dietary fiber, offers significant health benefits, particularly in immunomodulation. However, the structure-activity relationship (SAR) in this context remains poorly understood. This study aimed to elucidate the impact of varying degrees of esterification (DE) on AP's SAR in immunomodulatory activity.

The combination of RL-QN15 and OH-CATH30 to promotes the repair of acne via the TLR2/NF-κB pathway.

Acne is a prevalent and chronic inflammatory skin disease, and its treatment remains a huge clinical challenge. In the present study, we evaluated the therapeutic potential of combining the peptides RL-QN15 and OH-CATH30 for the treatment of acne in mice. Results indicated that the topical application of RL-QN15 and OH-CATH30 significantly inhibited the proliferation of Propionibacterium acnes (P.

Plant Volatile Methyl Salicylate Primes Wheat Defense Against the Grain Aphid by Altering the Synthesis of Defense Metabolites.

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the most important staple crops all over the world. Its productivity is adversely affected by aphid infestation.
