Understanding carrier recombination in semiconductors is a critical component when developing practical applications. Here we measure and compare the monomolecular, bimolecular, and trimolecular (Auger) recombination rate constants of CH3NH3PbBr3 and CH3NH3PbI3. The monomolecular and bimolecular recombination rate constants for both samples are limited by trap-assisted recombination. The bimolecular recombination rate constant for CH3NH3PbBr3 is ∼3.3 times larger than that for CH3NH3PbI3 and both are in line with that found for radiative recombination in other direct-gap semiconductors. The Auger recombination rate constant is 4 times larger in lead-bromide-based perovskite compared with lead-iodide-based perovskite and does not follow the reduced Auger rate when the bandgap increases. The increased Auger recombination rate, which is enhanced by Coulomb interactions, can be ascribed to the larger exciton binding energy, ∼40 meV, in CH3NH3PbBr3 compared with ∼13 meV in CH3NH3PbI3.

Background: Antiretroviral treatment increases the risk of accumulation of resistance mutations that negatively impact the possibilities of future treatment. This study aimed to present the frequency of HIV-1 antiretroviral resistance mutations and the genetic diversity among children with virological failure in five pediatric care facilities in Benin.
Methods: A cross-sectional study was carried out from November 20, 2020, to November 30, 2022, in children under 15 years of age who failed ongoing antiretroviral treatment at five facilities care in Benin (VL > 3log10 on two consecutive realizations three months apart).

is one of the commonly used hosts for heterologous enzyme expression, depending on media rich in carbon, nitrogen, and phosphate sources for optimal growth and enzyme production. Interestingly, our investigation of maltotetraose-forming amylase, a key enzyme for efficient maltotetraose synthesis, revealed that phosphate limitation significantly enhances the growth rate and production of heterologous enzymes in recombinant . Under phosphate-limited conditions in a 15 L fermenter, the enzyme activity reached 679.

Objective: Homologous recombination deficiency assays, guiding treatment of poly (adenosine diphosphate ribose) polymerase inhibitors, are increasingly applied in clinics. This study aimed to evaluate the predictive performance of homologous recombination deficiency status at genomic and functional perspective on the efficacy of platinum-based chemotherapy in ovarian cancer.
Methods: Between 2016 and 2019, 134 patients with high-grade ovarian cancer were retrospectively analyzed.

Achieving targeted hypermutation of specific genomic sequences without affecting other regions remains a key challenge in continuous evolution. To address this, we evolved a T7 RNA polymerase (RNAP) mutant that synthesizes single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) instead of RNA in vivo, while still exclusively recognizing the T7 promoter. By increasing the error rate of the T7 RNAP mutant, it generates mutated ssDNA that recombines with homologous sequences in the genome, leading to targeted genomic hypermutation.

Incidence of the excitation laser from the p-side was employed for both structures in order to acquire better emission characteristics. The QW structure was grown on sapphire substrate by metalorganic vapor-phase epitaxy(MOVPE) with a blue pre-layer QW.
