We report a study of the electronic properties of the ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As using magnetic linear dichroism in the angular dependence of Mn 2p photoemission under hard x-ray excitation. Bulk plasmon loss satellites demonstrate that the probed Mn ions are incorporated deep within the GaAs lattice, while the observed large dichroism indicates that the spectra originate from ferromagnetic substitutional Mn. Simulations of the spectra using an Anderson impurity model show that the ferromagnetic Mn 3d electrons of substitutional Mn in (Ga,Mn)As are intermediate between localized and delocalized.

Background And Aims: Steatotic liver disease (SLD) is the most common chronic liver disease strongly associated with metabolic dysfunction, but its pathogenesis remains incompletely understood. Exploring plasma circulating metabolites may help in elucidating underlying mechanisms and identifying new biomarkers for SLD.
Methods: We examined cross-sectionally the association between plasma metabolites and SLD as well as liver enzymes using data from 4 population-based cohort studies (Rotterdam study, Avon Longitudinal Study of Parents and Children, The Insulin Resistance Atherosclerosis Family Study, and Study of Latinos).

Background And Purpose: Quantitative MRI (qMRI) has been explored for detecting tumor changes during radiation therapy (RT) in head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC). Clinical trials show prolonged survival with PD-1 targeted immune checkpoint inhibition. Hypofractionated radiation regimens are being studied to counteract radioresistant clonogen formation.

We used a single-mode-no-core-single-mode fiber structure coated by a magnetic fluid as a sensing element, and inserted the sensing element in the inner cavity of a laser. Highly sensitive, high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), narrow half-height width (FWHM) sensing signals have been obtained using intra-laser cavity modulation.

Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1) has strong carcinogenicity, mutagenicity, and teratogenicity even at low concentrations, presenting a major risk to food safety and human health, hence, it is crucial to develop a sensitive detection technique for AFB1. Consequently, cadmium telluride (CdTe) quantum dots conjugated with AFB1 aptamers serve as fluorescent signal probes, whereas FeO@UiO-66-NH nanocomplexes are employed as magnetic carriers and fluorescence quenchers. FeO@UiO-66-NH reduces background signal interference, thereby enhancing detection sensitivity and Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) efficiency.

Mercury (II) ion (Hg) as highly toxic heavy metal may be accumulated in aquatic ecosystems and animals species so as to enter human body to conduct health harm. To ensure the safety of fishes food, hence, it is of great interest to evaluate the Hg levels in different kinds of fishes as well as Hg removal in aquaculture tailwater. In this article, a selective colormetric detection and efficient removal strategy has been developed for Hg ions by the controlled supermolecular self-assembly of melamine (MA)-platinum (Pt) composites onto mesoporous FeO carriers.
