Large longitudinal relaxivities were observed in Mn(II)-containing Prussian blue analogue nanoparticles. At low concentrations and high field (7 T), a remarkable positive contrast enhancement was seen which exceeded that of clinical contrast agents and was attributed to the very large proportion of surface atoms of these coordination nanoparticles.

Renal ischemia-reperfusion (IR) induces tissue hypoxia, resulting in disrupted energy metabolism and heightened oxidative stress. These factors contribute to tubular cell damage, which is a leading cause of acute kidney injury (AKI) and can progress to chronic kidney disease (CKD). The excessive generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of AKI.

The clinical application of tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) is rapidly growing and has emerged as a cornerstone in the treatment of both solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. However, resistance to TKI targets and disease progression remain inevitable. Nanocarrier-mediated delivery has emerged as a promising strategy to overcome the limitations of the TKI application.

The escalating global fecal waste and rising CO levels present dual significant environmental challenges, further intensified by urbanization. Traditional fecal waste management methods are insufficient, particularly in addressing the related health risks and environmental threats. This study explores the synthesis of biochar from pig manure as a carbon substrate to disperse and stabilize Cu nanoparticles, resulting in the formation of an efficient Cu-NB-2000 electrocatalyst for electrocatalytic CO reduction (ECR).

Electrical fires pose significant threats to the lives and property safety of people. Although utilizing coatings to impart conductivity and flame retardancy to materials is convenient and reliable, traditional layer-by-layer preparation methods have the limitations of cost, convenience and scalability. Therefore, a single-layer coating that simultaneously imparts excellent conductivity and flame retardancy to materials presents broader application prospects.

Uncontrolled lithium (Li) dendrite formation presents major safety risks and challenges in the Li host design. A novel approach is introduced, using a valence gradient in iron nanoparticles (Fe, Fe, Fe) to stabilize the anodes. An Fe component, with fast Li diffusion, ensures a steady supply of Li to Fe and Fe components, which have slower Li diffusion.
