A facile, viable, "green" two-step, inexpensive technique was developed for the preparation of (32)P patch for the treatment of skin cancer. This technique consists of impregnation of H(3)(32)PO(4) solution into an inert solid carrier followed by immobilization into a nonleachable matrix by lamination. The morphology of the impregnated paper was evaluated by scanning electron microscope and energy-dispersive spectral analyses. Radioactive patches containing up to ∼37 MBq/cm(2) of (32)P could be prepared. Distribution of (32)P on sources was uniform and release of (32)P from the sealed source in water and saline was found to be well within the permissible levels of 185 Bq. Custom-shaped (32)P-patches after quality assurance were supplied to AIIMS, New Delhi, for clinical evaluation. (32)P-impregnated paper protected by a laminated film holds promise for treatment of superficial cancers.

Granular hydrogels are injectable and inherently porous biomaterials assembled through the packing of microparticles. These particles typically have a symmetric and spherical shape. However, recent studies have shown that asymmetric particles with high aspect ratios, such as fibers and rods, can significantly improve the mechanics, structure, and cell-guidance ability of granular hydrogels.

In this paper, we present a facile yet effective method for the fabrication of core-shell nanoparticles (NPs) of magnetite (FeO) and polydopamine (FeO@PDA) and their decoration with a tunable amount of gold NPs (AuNPs). For this, FeO NPs were fabricated through the polyol method and AuNPs were deposited onto FeO@PDA via anchoring of as-prepared citrate-stabilized AuNPs or reduction of Au ions. PDA with its numerous catechol groups enabled the decoration of AuNPs in a well-controlled manner.

We present a novel electrochemical dicarboxylation of epoxides with CO, characterized by the cleavage of two C-O single bonds. Not only are vinyl epoxides viable, but cyclic carbonates also serve as effective substrates, facilitating the synthesis of E-configured adipic and octanedioic acids with high chemo-, regio-, and stereoselectivity. The synthetic practicality is further highlighted by the diverse functionalizations of the resulting multifunctional diacids.

The realization of higher coupling strengths between coupled resonant modes enables exploration of compelling phenomena in diverse fields of physics and chemistry. In this study, we focus on the modal coupling between localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) of Au nanoparticles (Au-NPs) and Fabry-Pérot mode (p-NiO/Au film). The effects of nanoparticle size, projected surface coverage (PSC), interparticle distance (IPD), and arrangement to the coupling strength between the two modes are theoretically investigated using finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method.

Article Synopsis
- Crystalline-amorphous hybrid materials, specifically CoNi-layered double hydroxides (CA-CoNi-LDHs), have been developed for improved energy storage, overcoming challenges in regulating their structure.
- The experimental approach involves a simple electrochemical activation method that enhances both the morphology and electronic properties of these materials, leading to more active sites for energy storage due to increased defect density and active species concentration.
- The resulting CA-CoNi-LDHs@CC electrode demonstrates impressive performance metrics, such as an areal capacitance of 13,070 mF/cm² and high energy density of 0.71 mWh/cm², showcasing the effectiveness of these hybrid materials for energy applications.
