The production of solid materials via chemical reactions is abundant both in nature and in industrial processes. Precipitation reactions coupled with transport phenomena lead to enhanced product properties not observed in the traditional well-stirred systems. Herein, we present a flow-driven pattern formation upon radial injection in a confined geometry for various chemical systems to show how reaction kinetics modifies the emerging precipitation patterns. It is found that chemically similar elements, such as alkaline earth or transition metals react on very different time scales under the same experimental conditions. The patterns are quantified and compared both with literature results obtained in unconfined solution layers and with hydrodynamic simulations.

Inducing magnetic ordering in a non-ferrous layered double hydroxides (LDHs) instigates higher spin polarization, which leads to enhanced efficiency during oxygen evolution reaction (OER). In nano-sized magnetic materials, the concept of elongated grains drives domain alignment under the application of an external magnetic field. Hence, near the solid electrode interface, modified magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) positively impacts the electrocatalytic ability of non-ferrous nanocatalysts.

Cannabicyclol ((±)-CBL), a minor phytocannabinoid, is largely unexplored, with its biological activity previously undocumented. We studied its conversion from cannabichromene (CBC) using various acidic catalysts. Montmorillonite (K30) in chloroform at room temperature had the highest yield (60%) with minimal byproducts.

Human amniotic membrane (hAM) has been extensively used for several decades as a bioactive scaffold for regenerative medicine. In its cryopreserved form-one of the main storage formats-the presence of viable cells has often been questioned. Furthermore, there is little published evidence of the role of endogenous amniotic cells from cryopreserved hAM in tissue repair.

Introduction: Exposure to environmental factors ( air pollution and second-hand tobacco smoke) have been associated with impaired lung function. However, the impact of environmental factors on lung health is usually evaluated separately and not with an exposomic framework. In this regard, breath analysis could be a noninvasive tool for biomonitoring of global human environmental exposure.

Background: Regulator of G protein signaling (RGS) proteins participate in tumor formation and metastasis by acting on the α-subunit of heterotrimeric G proteins. The specific effect of RGS, particularly , on the progression of gastric cancer (GC) is not yet clear.

Aim: To explore the role and underlying mechanisms of action of in GC development.
