We investigated implications of nanostructure formation on structural and magnetotransport properties of La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 compound. The polycrystalline nanomaterials of variable grain sizes were synthesized by using sol-gel method. The structural parameters obtained by Rietveld refinement of the X-ray diffraction data indicated that the samples possess perovskite structure with orthorhombic Pnma symmetry. The X-ray Photoemission Spectra showed chemical shift in the lowest particle size sample due to oxygen deficiency. The average particle size observed through transmission electron microscopy varied from 22 nm to 34 nm. The particle size induced metal-insulator transition and substantial increase in electrical resistivity observed in these nanomaterials are in contrast with the bulk material phase diagram. We also observed temperature and magnetic field dependent colossal magnetoresistance. The low-field magnetoresistance is substantially enhanced in nanomaterials samples, making it more promising for device applications. A divergence in field cooled and zero field cooled magnetization indicated possibility of magnetic spin-glass behavior.

CaCoO/rGO was prepared by combining a sol-gel strategy and mechanical ball milling method. The Rietveld refinement results demonstrated a single-phase structure with a monoclinic symmetry. When utilized as an anode for lithium-ion batteries, it exhibited excellent rate performance and electrochemical stability due to the significantly decreasing particle size as well as the formation of a conductive rGO network in the composite after ball milling.

To enhance the efficiency of vaccine manufacturing, this study focuses on optimizing the microfluidic conditions and lipid mix ratios of messenger RNA-lipid nanoparticles (mRNA-LNP). Different mRNA-LNP formulations ( = 24) were developed using an I-optimal design, where machine learning tools (XGBoost/Bayesian optimization and self-validated ensemble (SVEM)) were used to optimize the process and predict lipid mix ratio. The investigation included material attributes, their respective ratios, and process attributes.

Background: Acacetin (AC) is a flavonoid compound with antiperoxidant, anti-inflammatory, and antiplasmodial activity. However, the solubility of AC is poor and nano acacetin (Nano AC) was synthesized. The intestinal mucosal barrier is impaired in sepsis rats, and the protective effects and mechanism of AC and Nano AC on the intestinal mucosal barrier are unclear.

Hematite (α-FeO) nanoparticles have been synthesized from waste source of iron which contains a prominent amount of iron (93.2 %) and investigated the effect of low temperature calcination. The two-step synthesis method involved preparing ferrous sulfate through acid leaching process followed by oxidation and calcination at temperatures ranging from 200 to 400 °C to produce the desired α-FeO in nano form.

This paper presents the preparation of the parental experimental alloy, featuring a standard composition of TiYZrFeNiMn, via the vacuum induction melting technique. Subsequently, the TiYZrFeNiMn alloy, with an addition of 2 wt% Ni, underwent mechanical ball milling to yield a TiFe-based composite for experimental purposes. The results of the experimental tests indicate that the composite alloy's phase composition comprises the TiFe primary phase, with a minor quantity of ZrMn phase segregated on the surface of the primary TiFe phase, as well as Ni phase.
