A square wave adsorptive stripping voltammetric (SWAdSV) method for the indirect determination of trace amounts of magnesium with thiopentone sodium (TPS) as an electroactive ligand, at carbon paste mercury film electrode (CP-MFE) is proposed. It is observed that the increase of the square wave voltammetric cathodic peak current of TPS, under alkaline conditions, is linear with the increase of Mg concentration. Under optimum experimental conditions viz.; pH 10.75, 3x10(-5)M TPS and 0.05M phosphate buffer (Na(2)HPO(4)-NaH(2)PO(4)), a linear relation in the range 6x10(-9) to 9x10(-8)M Mg(2+) (0.14-2.16ppb), at 60s deposition time, is obtained. The detection limit of Mg(2+) is 0.14ppb for 60s deposition time with the relative standard deviation is 0.5% (n=5). The proposed method was successfully applied to the determination of magnesium in urine and tap water samples with satisfactory results. The data obtained are compared with the standard flame atomic absorption spectrophotometric method (FAAS).

As the elite force of our immune system, T cells play a determining role in the effectiveness of cancer immunotherapy. However, the clever tumor cells construct a strong immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) fortress to resist the attack of T cells. Herein, a magnesium peroxide (MP)-based biomimetic nanoigniter loaded with doxorubicin (DOX) and metformin (MET) is rationally designed (D/M-MP@LM) to awake T cell-mediated cancer immunotherapy via comprehensively destroying the strong TME fortress.

A self-driven electrochemical system (SDES) was utilized to treat anaerobic digestate wastewater, aiming to achieve wastewater resource utilization and energy generation. The efficiencies of pollutant removal, resource recovery, and energy production were enhanced by adjusting device parameters (anode area, external resistance, and electrode spacing). The high pollutant removal rates and struvite purity were achieved with the magnesium anode area of 15 cm, external resistance of 10 Ω, and electrode spacing of 10 cm.

Boron nitride (BN), renowned for its exceptional optoelectrical properties, mechanical robustness, and thermal stability, has emerged as a promising two-dimensional (2D) material. Reinforcing AZ80 magnesium alloy with BN can significantly enhance its mechanical properties. To investigate and predict this enhancement during hot deformation, we introduce two independent modeling approaches a modified Johnson-Cook (J-C) constitutive model and an Artificial Neural Network (ANN).

Background: Chronic periodontitis is one of the most common inflammatory diseases worldwide. Micronutrients play a significant impact on health and periodontal disease progression. However, there is still a lack of conclusive studies confirming the causal association of micronutrients with chronic periodontitis.

Amorphous-dominated magnesium oxide hollow spheres (A-MgO) were prepared using a spray-drying method in this study. These hollow spheres exhibited excellent sphericity, large specific surface areas, and abundant porosity. A-MgO exhibited outstanding fluoride adsorption properties, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 260.
