The high-temperature oxidation behavior of low-carbon steel (AISI 1015, AISI 8617, AISI 4115) was investigated over the temperature range from 600 to 1000 °C in humid air containing 25% water vapor. Mass gain of oxidation measurement was performed to study the oxidation kinetics. The microstructure, thickness, and composition of the oxide scale formed were investigated via optical microscope (OM), scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with an energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and electron probe microanalyzer (EPMA). The oxidation process was performed from 2 to 100 min. As the oxidation time increased, the trend of mass gain per unit area switched from a linear to a parabolic law, regardless of the steel grade used. As the chromium content increased, the duration of time during which the oxidation rate followed a linear relationship decreased. In the low-alloy steel with higher chromium content, the thickness of the mixed oxide layer containing Cr increased and the oxidation rate decreased at all oxidation temperatures.

Mangrove forests are increasingly recognized as vital blue carbon ecosystems due to their high carbon sequestration capacity, primarily through the accumulation of soil organic carbon (SOC). Recent research highlights that, in addition to SOC, dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), particularly in the form of bicarbonate (HCO₃⁻), plays a crucial role in carbon sequestration by being exported from these ecosystems to adjacent coastal waters. This study aims to investigate the previously unexamined mechanisms behind bicarbonate production in mangrove soils.

Nitroglycerin is a potent vasodilator in clinical use since the late 1800s. It functions as a prodrug that is bioactivated by formation of an enzyme-based thionitrate, E-Cys-NO. This intermediate reportedly decomposes to release NO and NO but their relative yields remain controversial.

Cuproptosis, a newly identified form of cell death, has drawn increasing attention for its association with various cancers, though its specific role in colorectal cancer (CRC) remains unclear. In this study, transcriptomic and clinical data from CRC patients available in the TCGA database were analyzed to investigate the impact of cuproptosis. Differentially expressed genes linked to cuproptosis were identified using Weighted Gene Co-Expression Network Analysis (WGCNA).
