Graphene-enhanced Raman scattering (GERS) on isotopically labelled bilayer and a single layer of pristine and partially hydrogenated graphene has been studied. The hydrogenated graphene sample showed a change in relative intensities of Raman bands of Rhodamine 6 G (R6G) with different vibrational energies deposited on a single layer and bilayer graphene. The change corresponds qualitatively to different doping of graphene in both areas. Pristine graphene sample exhibited no difference in doping nor relative intensities of R6G Raman peaks in the single layer and bilayer areas. Therefore, it was concluded that strain and strain inhomogeneities do not affect the GERS. Because of analyzing relative intensities of selected peaks of the R6G probe molecules, it is possible to obtain these results without determining the enhancement factor and without assuming homogeneous coverage of the molecules. Furthermore, we tested the approach on copper phtalocyanine molecules.

Lipid imaging mass spectrometry (LIMS) allows for establishing the bidimensional distribution of lipid species within a tissue section. One of the main advantages is the generation of spatial information on lipid species distribution at a spatial (lateral) resolution bordering on single-cell resolution with no need to isolate cells. Thus, LIMS images demonstrate, with a level of detail never described before, that lipid profiles are highly sensitive to cell type and pathophysiological state.

Nowadays, the limited electronic conductivity and structural deterioration during battery cycling have hindered the widespread application of NaV(PO) (NVP). In response to these challenges, we advocate for a technique involving the application of carbon modifications to NVP to enhance its suitability as cathode material. This work involves the synthesis of N/Cl co-modified in situ carbon coatings derived from clozapine (CZP) through a facile hydrothermal route.

GBA is the major risk gene for Parkinson's disease (PD) and Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB), two common α-synucleinopathies with cognitive deficits. We investigated the role of mutant GBA in cognitive decline by utilizing Gba (L444P) mutant, SNCA transgenic (tg), and Gba-SNCA double mutant mice. Notably, Gba mutant mice showed early cognitive deficits but lacked PD-like motor deficits or α-synuclein pathology.

Cancer immunotherapy using engineered cytotoxic effector cells has demonstrated significant potential. The limited spatial complexity of existing models, however, poses a challenge to mechanistic studies attempting to approve existing approaches of effector cell-mediated cytotoxicity within a three-dimensional, solid tumor-like environment. To gain additional experimental control, we developed an approach for constructing three-dimensional (3D) culture models using smart polymers that form temperature responsive hydrogels.
