Dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (-DNP) has enabled applications such as the real-time monitoring of chemical reactions. Such applications are mainly for C and N spins with long spin-lattice relaxation times in the molecules of interest. However, the only applications for phosphorus using -DNP are pH imaging and nucleation during crystallization due to the short relaxation times. Here we show that it is possible to observe enzyme reactions using -DNP with phosphorus. Hyperpolarized P spins in pyrophosphate were obtained using bullet-DNP, which requires less dilution of highly polarized solid samples. Real-time monitoring of the hydrolysis reaction of pyrophosphate by inorganic pyrophosphatase from baker's yeast at physiological pH and was successfully achieved and the reaction rate was determined. This is an important reaction for a wide range of applications related to medicine, agriculture, and quantum life science.

Background And Aims: Predicting progression and prognosis in Interstitial Lung Diseases (ILD), especially Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis (IPF) and Progressive Pulmonary Fibrosis (PPF), remains a challenge. Integrating patient-centered measurements is essential for earlier and safer detection of disease progression. Home monitoring through e-health technologies, such as spirometry and oximetry connected to smartphone applications, holds promise for early detection of ILD progression or acute exacerbations, enabling timely therapeutic interventions.

Two-dimensional layered materials (2DLMs) have received increasing attention for their potential in bioelectronics due to their favorable electrical, optical, and mechanical properties. The transformation of the planar structures of 2DLMs into complex 3D shapes is a key strategic step toward creating conformal biointerfaces with cells and applying them as scaffolds to simultaneously guide their growth to tissues and enable integrated bioelectronic monitoring. Using a strain-engineered self-foldable bilayer, we demonstrate the facile formation of predetermined 3D microstructures of 2DLMs with controllable curvatures, called microrolls.

Rapid validation of newly predicted materials through autonomous synthesis requires real-time adaptive control methods that exploit physics knowledge, a capability that is lacking in most systems. Here, we demonstrate an approach to enable real-time control of thin film synthesis by combining optical diagnostics with a Bayesian state estimation method. We developed a physical model for film growth and applied the direct filter (DF) method for real-time estimation of nucleation and growth rates during pulsed laser deposition (PLD).

Chlorophyll density (ChD) can reflect the photosynthetic capacity of the winter wheat population, therefore achieving real-time non-destructive monitoring of ChD in winter wheat is of great significance for evaluating the growth status of winter wheat. Derivative preprocessing has a wide range of applications in the hyperspectral monitoring of winter wheat chlorophyll. In order to research the role of fractional-order derivative (FOD) in the hyperspectral monitoring model of ChD, this study based on an irrigation experiment of winter wheat to obtain ChD and canopy hyperspectral reflectance.
