Entanglement purification is used to distill high quality entangled states from several noisy low quality entangled states, and it plays a key role in quantum repeater. The measurement-based entanglement purification protocol (MB-EPP) does not require local two-qubit gates or single-particle measurements on the noisy pairs and may offer significant advantages compared with the gate-based EPPs. We present an alternative MB-EPP in linear optics. Subsequently, we provide a detailed analysis on the realization of this MB-EPP using spontaneous parametric down conversion (SPDC) sources. By delicately designing the optical circuits, the double-pair emission noise caused by SPDC sources can be eliminated automatically. Combined with suitable quantum memory and entanglement swapping, this MB-EPP may have application potential in the implementation of a practical measurement-based quantum repeater.

In mass spectrometry-based proteomics, loss-minimized peptide purification techniques play a key role in improving sensitivity and coverage. We have developed a desalting tip column packed with thermoplastic polymer-coated chromatographic particles, named ChocoTip, to achieve high recoveries in peptide purification by pipet-tip-based LC with centrifugation (tipLC). ChocoTip identified more than twice as many peptides from 20 ng of tryptic peptides from Hela cell lysate compared to a typical StageTip packed with chromatographic particles entangled in a Teflon mesh in tipLC.

Article Synopsis
  • Saccharomyces cerevisiae ADT is an edible fungus with limited research on its exopolysaccharides (EPS), which were purified in three types (EPS60, EPS80, EPS100) using varying ethanol concentrations.
  • Various analytical methods such as HPLC, FTIR, and NMR showed that these EPS are mainly composed of mannose and glucose, with acetyl groups and specific sugar structures but lacking a triple helix configuration.
  • The study found that these EPS exhibit pseudoplasticity and thermal stability, show antioxidant properties without cytotoxic effects, indicating potential applications in natural antioxidants and functional materials.

Wastewater treatment facilities can filter out some plastics before they reach the open environment, yet microplastics often persist throughout these systems. As they age, microplastics in wastewater may both leach and sorb pollutants and fragment to provide an increased surface area for bacterial attachment and conjugation, possibly impacting antimicrobial resistance (AMR) traits. Despite this, little is known about the effects of persistent plastic pollution on microbial functioning.

Analog and digital quantum simulators can efficiently simulate quantum many-body systems that appear in natural phenomena. However, experimental limitations of near-term devices still make it challenging to perform the entire process of quantum simulation. The purification-based quantum simulation methods can alleviate the limitations in experiments such as the cooling temperature and noise from the environment, while this method has the drawback that it requires global entangled measurement with a prohibitively large number of measurements that scales exponentially with the system size.

To facilitate the application of rhamnogalacturonan-I (RG-I)-enriched pectins (RGPs) as novel, healthy, and gelling food additives, this study compared the structural characteristics and gelling properties of RGPs extracted from citrus peel via four methods (alkali: AK, high-temperature/pressure: TP, citric acid: CA, and enzyme-assisted: EA extractions). AK and CA yielded pectins with the highest RG-I proportions (54.8 % and 51.
