AI Article Synopsis

  • - This study analyzes data from 123 developed and developing countries to explore how various factors impact green growth, aiming for environmental sustainability and economic growth by 2030.
  • - The findings reveal that while economic development boosts green growth, trade openness and energy consumption have negative effects, whereas using renewable energy sources positively contributes.
  • - Differences in how these factors affect green growth between developed and developing countries suggest that tailored strategies will be necessary for each to meet the Sustainable Development Goals by 2030.

Article Abstract

Considering the need for environmental sustainability while ensuring economic growth and development by 2030, this study uses data on 123 developed and developing countries to examine factors that influence green growth. The empirical results show that economic development positively influences green growth. However, trade openness is detrimental to green growth. Regarding energy-related factors, we find energy consumption negatively affecting green growth, but renewable energy consumption significantly improves green growth. In further analysis, we find that the influence of these factors differs between developed and developing countries. The result implies that countries at a different development level will require different strategies in achieving the Sustainable Development Goals in 2030. The results are robust to alternative identification strategies such as the System Generalised Method of Movement, which accounts for potential endogeneity.

This study focuses on the development and application of tea polyphenol-loaded chitosan/polyaspartic acid nanoparticles (TP@CS/PASP-Nps) embedded within polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) nanofibers to extend the shelf life of fruit. The nanofibers were fabricated using electrospinning, which enhanced the stability and uniform dispersion of the nanoparticles. Experimental results demonstrated that the TP@CS/PASP nanoparticles exhibit significant pH and protease-responsive release of TP, with a cumulative release of 56.

Transcutaneous Electrical Nerve Stimulation (TENS) and Electronic Muscle Stimulation (EMS) are non-invasive therapies widely used for pain relief and neuromuscular adaptation. However, the clinical research supporting the efficacy of TENS in chronic pain management is limited by significant methodological flaws, including small sample sizes and inconsistent reporting of stimulation parameters. TENS modulates pain perception through various techniques, targeting specific nerve fibers and pain pathways.

Concentration-Bias-Free Discrimination of Single Nucleotide Variants Using Isothermal Nucleic Acid Amplification and Mismatch-Guided DNA Assembly.

Anal Chem

January 2025

Key Laboratory of Green Chemistry & Technology of Ministry of Education, College of Chemistry, Sichuan University, Chengdu 610064, Sichuan, China.

Isothermal nucleic acid amplification techniques are promising alternatives to polymerase chain reaction (PCR) for amplifying and detecting nucleic acids under resource-limited conditions. While many isothermal amplification strategies, such as recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA), offer comparable sensitivity to PCR, they often lack the specificity and robustness for discriminating single nucleotide variants (SNVs), mainly due to the uncontrolled production of massive amplicons. Herein, we introduce a mismatch-guided DNA assembly (MGDA) approach capable of discriminating SNVs in the presence of high concentrations of wild-type (WT) interferences.
