Structures of N-glycans released from rat CEACAM1 expressed in human embryonic kidney cells were determined by MALDI and negative ion nanospray MS/MS techniques. The major carbohydrates were bi-, tri- and tetra-antennary complex glycans with and without sialic acid, fucose and bisecting GlcNAc residues. High-mannose glycans, predominantly Man(5)GlcNAc(2), were also found. The negative ion fragmentation technique easily identified the branching pattern of the triantennary glycans (mainly branched on the 6-antenna) and the presence of 'bisecting' GlcNAc residues (attached to the 4-position of the core mannose), features that are difficult to determine by traditional techniques. Sialic acids were in both alpha2-3 and alpha2-6 linkage as determined by MALDI-TOF MS following linkage-specific derivatization.

Flexibility enhancement is a pressing issue in the current development of advanced lithium-metal battery applications. Many types of organic polymers are inherently flexible, which can form a composite structure enhancing electrode flexibility. However, organic polymers have a negative influence on the plating and stripping of lithium-metal anodes, and the large number of polymers block the pore of the material, reducing the utilization of the active site.

Introduction: The COVID-19 pandemic has underscored the health benefits of green spaces, yet research on how specific elements of natural infrastructure affect well-being during the pandemic has been limited.
Methods: This study, conducted at Sichuan Agricultural University with 300 students in 2022, investigated how urban natural infrastructure impacts physical and psychological well-being during the pandemic. Different aspects of natural infrastructure, such as thermal comfort, air quality (negative ion concentration), and noise and light levels, varied in their positive effects on students' health.

We present simulation results for the Donnan equilibrium between a homogeneous bulk reservoir and inhomogeneous confining geometries with varying number of restricted dimensions, . Planar slits ( = 1), cylindrical pores ( = 2), and spherical cavities ( = 3) are considered. The walls have a negative surface charge density.

The reversibility and stability of aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) are largely limited by free-water-induced side reactions (e.g., hydrogen evolution and zinc corrosion) and negative zinc dendrite growth.

Iron and zinc are two metal ions with important roles in biology, industry and the environment, however, the excess or deficiency of both Fe and Zn can have negative effects on organisms and environment. Therefore, the development of efficient method for simultaneous detection of Fe and Zn provides timely information on metal content, simplifies operations and improves efficiency. In this work, a small molecule (COOH-BPEA) of recognizing Zn modified the four metal-organic-framework (MOF) (UiO-66-X(66, OH, NH and OH/NH)) was developed for the simultaneous detection of Fe and Zn.
