Radical-induced copolymerization of 1-vinyluracil and maleic anhydride gave, after hydrolysis, a polymer containing a 1:1 monomer ratio of 1-vinyluracil-maleic acid. Gamma-Ray-induced copolymerization of 1-vinyluracil with acrylic acid gave a polymer with a ratio of 1:1.7. Similar treatment of 9-vinlyadenine and acrylic acid resulted in a polymer with a 1:3.2 ratio. These three compounds are potent stimulants of poly (uridylic acid) coded polyphenylalanine synthesis in an in vitro cell free system purified from Escherichia coli MRE 600. The double-stranded polymer, poly(inosinic acid)-poly(cytidylic acid), also stimulates polyphenylalanine synthesis in this assay.

In this study, new cinnamic acid linked to triazole acetamide derivatives was synthesized and evaluated for anti-Alzheimer and anti-melanogenesis activities. The structural elucidation of all analogs was performed using different analytical techniques, including H-NMR, C-NMR, mass spectrometry, and IR spectroscopy. The synthesized compounds were assessed in vitro for their inhibitory activities against acetylcholinesterase (AChE), butyrylcholinesterase (BChE), and tyrosinase enzymes.

This work aims to deal with the challenges associated with designing complementary bifunctional electrocatalysts and a separator/membrane that enables rechargeable zinc-air batteries (RZABs) with nearly solid-state operability. This solid-state RZAB was accomplished by integrating a bifunctional electrocatalyst based on Ru-RuO interface nanoparticles supported on nitrogen-doped (N-doped) graphene (Ru-RuO/NGr) and a dual-doped poly(acrylic acid) hydrogel (d-PAA) electrolyte soaked in KOH with sodium stannate additive. The catalyst shows enhanced activity and stability toward the two oxygen reactions, i.

Mechanical metamaterials exhibit several unusual mechanical properties, such as a negative Poisson's ratio, which impart additional capabilities to materials. Recently, hydrogels have emerged as exceptional candidates for fabricating mechanical metamaterials that offer enhanced functionality and expanded applications due to their unique responsive characteristics. However, the adaptability of these metamaterials remains constrained and underutilized, as they lack integration of the hydrogels' soft and responsive characteristics with the metamaterial design.

Rapid evolution of smart devices necessitates high-performance, lightweight materials for effective electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding. TiCT MXene nanosheets are promising for such applications, yet the high solid content typically required for 3D-printable MXene inks limits their scalability and cost efficiency. In this study, we present an MXene-based ink with an ultralow solid content (0.
