We present laboratory studies of the radiolysis of pure (97%) solid H2O2 films by 50 keV H+ at 17 K. Using UV-visible and infrared reflectance spectroscopies, a quartz-crystal microbalance, and a mass spectrometer, we measured the absolute concentrations of the H2O, O2, H2O2, and O3 products as a function of irradiation fluence. Ozone was identified by both UV and infrared spectroscopies and O2 from its forbidden transition in the infrared at 1550 cm(-1). From the measurements we derive radiation yields, which we find to be particularly high for the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide; this can be explained by the occurrence of a chemical chain reaction.

A niobium (Nb) mesh electrode was coated with boron-doped diamond (BDD) using chemical vapor deposition in a custom-built hot-filament reactor. The BDD-functionalized mesh was tested in a zero-gap electrolysis configuration and evaluated for the anodic formation of HO by selective oxidation of water, including the analysis of the effects on Faradaic efficiency towards HO (FEH2O2) induced by pulsed electrolysis. A low electrolyte flow rate (V⋅) was found to result in a relatively high concentration of HO in single-pass electrolysis experiments.

Epilepsy is one of the most common neurological disorders. Calcium dysregulation and neuroinflammation are essential and common mechanisms in epileptogenesis. Sarco/endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Ca-ATPase 2b (SERCA2b), a crucial calcium regulatory pump, plays pathological roles in various calcium dysregulation-related diseases.

Fungal contamination in drinking water has garnered considerable attention over the past few decades, especially considering the detrimental consequences of pathogenic fungal species on both human and animal health. The formation of biofilms by certain species is a considerable factor contributing to the emergence of severe fungal infections. This research was designed to isolate and identify fungi, particularly those capable of forming biofilms from 150 samples of drinking water sourced from various locations.

As an efficient, sustainable, and environmentally friendly semiconductor material, covalent organic frameworks (COFs) can generate hydrogen peroxide (HO) by photocatalysis, attracting wide attention in recent years. Herein, the effects of hydroxyl, methoxyl, and vinyl groups of imide-linked two-dimensional (2D) COFs on the photocatalytic production of HO were studied theoretically and experimentally. The introduction of vinyl groups greatly promotes the photogenerated charge separation and migration of COFs, providing more oxygen adsorption sites, stronger proton affinity, and lower intermediate binding energy, which effectively facilitates the rapid conversion of oxygen to HO.

Aquaporins are widely present in the plant kingdom and play important roles in plant response to abiotic adversity stresses such as water and temperature extremes. In this study, we investigated the regulatory role of NTPIP2;4 on drought tolerance in tobacco at physiological and transcriptional levels. In this experiment, we constructed an NtPIP2;4 overexpression vector and genetically transformed tobacco variety 'K326' to investigate the mechanism of NtPIP2;4 gene in regulating drought tolerance in tobacco at physiological and transcriptomic levels.
