Introduction of pore partition agents into hexagonal channels of MIL-88 type (acs topology) endows materials with high tunability in gas sorption. Here, we report a strategy to partition acs framework into pacs (partitioned acs) crystalline porous materials (CPM). This strategy is based on insertion of in situ synthesized 4,4'-dipyridylsulfide (dps) ligands. One third of open metal sites in the acs net are retained in pacs MOFs; two thirds are used for pore-space partition. The Co V-pacs MOFs exhibit near or at record high uptake capacities for C H , C H , C H , and CO among MOFs. The storage capacity of C H is 234 cm g (298 K) and 330 cm g (273 K) at 1 atm for CPM-733-dps (the Co V-BDC form, BDC=1,4-benzenedicarboxylate). These high uptake capacities are accomplished with low heat of adsorption, a feature desirable for low-energy-cost adsorbent regeneration. CPM-733-dps is stable and shows no loss of C H adsorption capacity following multiple adsorption-desorption cycles.
Background: A central goal of implementation science is to generate insights that allow evidence-based practices to be successfully applied across diverse settings. However, challenges often arise in preserving programs' effectiveness outside the context of their intervention development. We propose that qualitative data can inform generalizability via elucidating mechanisms of an intervention.
Introduction: Breast cancer, a formidable global health challenge for women, necessitates innovative therapeutic strategies with enhanced efficacy and minimal side effects. Aripiprazole (ARI), a widely used schizophrenia medication, exhibits promising potential in the treatment of breast cancer. As cancer therapy evolves towards a combination approach, multimodal nano-based delivery systems, such as ARI-loaded niosomes (NIOs) combined with Chitosan-Au nanoparticles for chemo-photothermal therapy, show promise over traditional chemotherapy alone by enhancing targeted efficacy and minimizing side effects.
Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) encompasses a spectrum of chronic liver conditions, ranging from simple steatosis to nonalcoholic steatohepatitis, which may progress to fibrosis/cirrhosis. Here, the GSE163211 data set was analyzed, and Asah1 (encoding acid ceramidase) was identified as a crucial lysosomal gene that positively correlated with NAFLD stages in obese patients. To evaluate the role of Asah1 in the progression of NAFLD, Asah1/Alb mice (hepatocyte-specific deletion of Asah1) and Asah1 floxed (Asah1/wild-type) mice were fed with either a normal diet or a high-fat, high-cholesterol paigen diet (PD) for 20 weeks.
Objective: The recent outbreak of monkeypox (mpox) poses significant public health challenges, particularly for immunocompromised populations such as patients with cancer. However, misinformation poses a significant challenge during new outbreaks for patients with chronic diseases, as observed during the COVID-19 pandemic. Therefore, we aimed to assess perspectives and knowledge of patients with cancer on mpox and their willingness to receive mpox vaccination.
Cocoa-growing areas in Ghana have experienced a rise in mining activities affecting cocoa cultivation and increased concentrations of potentially toxic metals in the soil, which can accumulate in cocoa beans. This study evaluated potential toxic metal contamination in cocoa beans and soils from cocoa farms in mining and non-mining areas in Ghana. We used X-ray fluorescence and an ICP-MS to determine metal concentrations, and a Zeeman mercury analyzer to determine mercury.
