Department of Diagnostic and Interventional Radiology, Clinical Hospital Center Rijeka, Krešimirova 42, 51000 Rijeka, Croatia.
: This study aims to evaluate the impact of various weighting factors (WFs) on the quality of weighted average (WA) dual-energy computed tomography (DECT) non-contrast brain images and to determine the optimal WF value. Because they simulate standard CT images, 0.4-WA reconstructions are routinely used.

Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) waste significantly contributes to the global plastic crisis, but enzymatic conversion has become an efficient and environmentally friendly strategy to combat it. Therefore, this study explored the Re-face selective depolymerization mechanisms of a novel PET-degradation peptidase, hydrolase 202. Theoretical calculations revealed that the first step, a catalytic triad-assisted nucleophilic attack, is the rate-determining step.
