The improvement in the performance of a conventional laser ion source in the laser ion source and trap (LIST) project is presented, which envisages installation of a repeller electrode and a linear Paul trap/ion guide structure. This approach promises highest isobaric purity and optimum temporal and spatial control of the radioactive ion beam produced at an online isotope separator facility. The functionality of the LIST was explored at the offline test separators of University of Mainz (UMz) and ISOLDE/CERN, using the UMz solid state laser system. Ionization efficiency and selectivity as well as time structure and transversal emittance of the produced ion beam was determined. Next step after complete characterization is the construction and installation of the radiation-hard final trap structure and its first online application.

Thermodynamic therapy (TDT) is a promising alternative to photodynamic therapy (PDT) by absorbing heat through thermosensitive agents (TSAs) to generate oxygen-irrelevant highly toxic free radicals. Therefore, TDT can be a perfect partner for photothermal therapy (PTT) to achieve efficient synergistic treatment of anoxic tumors using a single laser, greatly simplifying the treatment process and overcoming hypoxia limitations. However, the issues of how to improve the stability and delivery efficiency of TSAs still need to be addressed urgently.

Background: To investigate the antibiofilm effect and mechanism of the silver nanowire (AgNW)-modified glass ionomer cement (GIC) against multi-species oral biofilm, and to examine the mechanical and biochemical properties of this novel GIC material.
Methods: Conventional GIC was incorporated with different concentrations of AgNW and silver nanoparticles (AgNP). Multi-species biofilms of Streptococcus mutans, Streptococcus sobrinus, Lactobacillus fermentum, and Lactobacillus rhamnosus were cultured for 72 h on GIC specimens.

Precise measurements of fundamental decay data such as energies and transition probabilities of radioactive isotopes are important for the development of corresponding nuclear modelling, activity determination and various applications in science and technology. The EMPIR project PrimA-LTD -"Towards new Primary Activity standardisation methods based on Low-Temperature Detectors" - aims to measure the electron-capture decay of Fe very precisely using Metallic Microcalorimeters (MMCs) with outstandingly high energy resolution. Using a high-statistics measurement, electron-capture probabilities shall be precisely determined and higher-order effects such as electron shake-up and shake-off shall be examined with unprecedented precision.

2-{[3-(1H-benzoimidazol-2-yl)-2-hydroxy-5-methylbenzylidene] amino}-benzoic acid (HBIo) based on proton transfer can serve as the fluorescent probe for detecting heavy metal ions. The excited-state intramolecular proton transfer (ESIPT) reaction mechanism of the HBIo chromophore with an intramolecular asymmetric double hydrogen bond in different solvents are investigated. The reaction barrier of the ESIPT along hydrogen bond O1-H2···N3 is higher than that of ESIPT along O4-H5···N6, which indicates that the double ESIPT is a stepwise process.

Obtaining high-quality matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry (MALDI MS) images and the reproducibility of the technique depend strongly on the sample preparation protocol. The most crucial part is the application of the MALDI matrix, which often relies on expensive spraying or sublimation coaters. In this work, we present a new dual-polarity matrix for MALDI mass spectrometry imaging (MSI): Basic Blue 7 (BB7), which belongs to the group of triarylmethane dyes.
