Ultrasmall Platinum Nanoparticles for Radiation‐Enhanced Cancer Therapy
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work proposes a nanomedicine‐based strategy to enhance X‐ray radiotherapy for cancer treatment. Ultrasmall Pt‐NPs exhibit catalase‐like activity that may contribute to modulation of the tumor microenvironment and amplify interactions between radiation and biological matter, leading to increased DNA damage.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This work presents a rate‐adaptive site transformation strategy in Ag‑ethylenediamine intercalated Co9S8, which not only enables parallel water dissociation and H* adsorption, but also allows the catalyst to provide more active sites under high demand, removing a major bottleneck. The catalyst achieves a record current density of 4.2 A cm−2@2.0 V, with

Site directed mutagenesis and purification of the cDNA for human class I aldehyde dehydrogenase : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science at Massey University [PDF]
, 1998 Aldehyde dehydrogenase (ALDH) is a key enzyme of alcohol metabolism, removing acetaldehyde which is formed as a product of the alcohol dehydrogenase reaction.

The census of interstellar complex organic molecules in the Class I hot corino of SVS13-A [PDF]
, 2018 We present the first census of the interstellar Complex Organic Molecules (iCOMs) in the low-mass Class I protostar SVS13-A, obtained by analysing data from the IRAM-30m Large Project ASAI (Astrochemical Surveys At IRAM).

Plant physiological and environmental controls over the exchange of acetaldehyde between forest canopies and the atmosphere [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2008 We quantified fine scale sources and sinks of gas phase acetaldehyde in two forested ecosystems in the US. During the daytime, the upper canopy behaved as a net source while at lower heights, reduced emission rates or net uptake were observed.

A Simulated Microgravity Environment Causes a Sustained Defect in Epithelial Barrier Function. [PDF]
, 2019 Intestinal epithelial cell (IEC) junctions constitute a robust barrier to invasion by viruses, bacteria and exposure to ingested agents. Previous studies showed that microgravity compromises the human immune system and increases enteropathogen virulence.

Water and acetaldehyde in HH212: The first hot corino in Orion [PDF]
, 2016 Aims: Using the unprecedented combination of high resolution and sensitivity offered by ALMA, we aim to investigate whether and how hot corinos, circumstellar disks, and ejected gas are related in young solar-mass protostars.
