As a result of climate change, global temperatures are increasing, and water scarcity is on the rise. Soybean [ () Merr] is one of the most important crops in the world due to its importance as food and feed. One of the major limiting factors for soybean production is drought, which can cause up to 80% reduction in yield.

HO Triggering Electron-Directed Transfer of Emerging Contaminants over Asymmetric Nano Zinc Oxide Surfaces for Water Self-Purification Expansion.

JACS Au

January 2025

Key Laboratory for Water Quality and Conservation of the Pearl River Delta, Ministry of Education, Institute of Environmental Research at Greater Bay, Guangzhou University, Guangzhou 510006, China.

Slow mass transfer processes between inert emerging contaminants (ECs) and dissolved oxygen (DO) limit natural water self-purification; thus, excessive energy consumption is necessary to achieve ECs removal, which has become a longstanding global challenge. Here, we propose an innovative water self-purification expansion strategy by constructing asymmetric surfaces that could modulate trace HO as trigger rather than oxidant to bridge a channel between inert ECs and natural dissolved oxygen, achieved through a dual-reaction-center (DRC) catalyst consisting of Cu/Co lattice-substituted ZnO nanorods (CCZO-NRs). During water purification, the bond lengths of emerging contaminants (ECs) adsorbed on the asymmetric surface were stretched, and this stretching was further enhanced by HO mediation, resulting in a significant reduction of bond-breaking energy barriers.

Pi-seq-A customizable multichannel syringe pump for microfluidics.

HardwareX

June 2024

Institute for Medical Bioinformatics and Biostatistics (IMBB), Philipps University of Marburg, Hans-Meerwein-Strasse 6, 35032 Marburg, Germany.

The advent of single cell technologies resulted in growing demand for microfluidics in the biological sciences. Commercial platforms have remained expensive, inflexible, and non-customizable black boxes. We developed an open source, multichannel, zero-backflow microfluidics device based on syringe pumps controlled by a Raspberry Pi computer.

In 2025, it will be 30 years since the initial clinical approval of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) by the Food and Drug Administration. PLD predated the field of nanomedicine and became a model nanomedicine setting key pharmacological principles (prolonged circulation, slow drug release and the enhanced permeability and retention (EPR) effect) for clinical application of other nano-drugs in cancer therapy. The impressive reduction of cardiotoxicity conferred by PLD is the most valuable clinical asset.

Background And Purpose: Animal models of LFH are still in the exploratory stage. This study aimed to establish a reliable, efficient, and economical model of LFH in rats for the study of human ligamentum flavum (LF) pathological mechanisms, drug screening, development, improvement of surgical treatment, disease prevention, and other aspects.

Methods And Materials: Forty rats were divided into an experimental group and a sham group of 20 rats.
