Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are a class of porous materials that are of topical interest for their utility in water-related applications. Nevertheless, molecular-level insight into water-MOF interactions and MOF hydrolytic reactivity remains understudied. Herein, we report two hydrolytic pathways leading to either structural stability or framework decomposition of a MOF (ZnMOF-1).

Aerosol ammonium (NH) is a critical component of particulate matter that affects air pollution, climate, and human health. Isotope-based source apportionment of NH is essential for ammonia (NH) mitigation but the role of kinetic vs equilibrium controls on nitrogen isotope (δN) fractionation between NH and NH remains unresolved. Based on concurrent measurements of NH and NH in winter Beijing, we observed that the difference of δN between NH and NH on clean days (3.

Voclosporin is a potent immunosuppressive agent currently approved for treating active lupus nephritis. Based on its potential antiviral activity, it has also been investigated as immunosuppressive agent in an investigator-initiated study in SARS-CoV2 positive kidney transplant recipients. As with many immunosuppressive agents, optimizing dosing regimens to achieve therapeutic efficacy while minimizing toxicity remains a critical challenge in clinical practice.

Mass spectrometry (MS)-based metabolomics often rely on separation techniques when analyzing complex biological specimens to improve method resolution, metabolome coverage, quantitative performance, and/or unknown identification. However, low sample throughput and complicated data preprocessing procedures remain major barriers to affordable metabolomic studies that are scalable to large populations. Herein, we introduce PeakMeister as a new software tool in the R statistical environment to enable standardized processing of serum metabolomic data acquired by multisegment injection-capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (MSI-CE-MS), a high-throughput separation platform (<4 min/sample) which takes advantage of a serial injection format of 13 samples within a single analytical run.

Background: In radioembolization therapy for hepatic malignancies, the accurate estimation of lung shunt fraction (LSF) is crucial to minimize the risk of radiation-induced pneumonitis and fibrosis due to hepatopulmonary shunting of yttrium-90 (90Y)-microspheres. This study aimed to compare the accuracy and precision of LSF estimation using technetium-99m macroaggregated albumin single photon emission computed tomography ([99mTc]Tc-MAA SPECT) LSF, [99mTc]Tc-MAA planar LSF, and 90Y PET LSF in patients undergoing 90Y-radioembolization.
Material And Methods: A retrospective study was conducted involving 15 patients diagnosed with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) or liver metastases and planned to undergo transarterial radioembolization with 90Y SirSpheres after multidisplinary team discussion.
