Ion Chemistry in Dielectric Barrier Discharge Ionization: Recent Advances in Direct Gas Phase Analyses

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Dielectric barrier discharge ionization (DBDI) sources, employing low‐temperature plasma, have emerged as sensitive and efficient ionization tools with various atmospheric pressure ionization processes. In this review, we summarize a historical overview of the development of DBDI, highlighting key principles of gas‐phase ion chemistry and the ...

Practical Applications of Secondary/Extractive Electrospray Ionization (SESI): A Versatile Tool for Real‐Time Chemical Analysis

Mass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In the 1980s, researchers discovered the remarkable ability of electrospray plumes to effectively ionize gas‐phase molecules via secondary ionization. Around 20 years later—coinciding with the ambient mass spectrometry revolution—secondary electrospray ionization (SESI) and extractive electrospray ionization (EESI) coupled to mass spectrometry

A graduated nativeness definition for overcoming dilemmas and difficulties of vascular plant species

Oikos, EarlyView.
Nativeness is a concept central to biodiversity conservation and invasion biology, but there are several problems related to a classic binary nativeness definition. Dilemmas arise from the dynamic nature of species' distribution ranges on longer time scales, and difficulties arise in the application to smaller regions defined by arbitrary borders, and ...

Bacteriologic and Genomic Investigation of Bacillus anthracis Isolated from World War II Site, China

Emerging Infectious Diseases
Records suggest Bacillus anthracis was used in biowarfare during World War II, but evidence remains limited. We isolated B. anthracis from soil at the remains of a World War II–era laboratory in China.

Communal sustainable development goals, belonging and involvement: Engaging with the SDGs

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines sustainable development from the cosmovisions of Indigenous Peoples and other Traditional Communities (IoTCs) in western Bahia, a region in the Brazilian savanna of the Cerrado. It adopts a feminist decolonial and post‐development approach to address issues of epistemic violence. Employing participatory arts‐based research,

بائیو لوجیکل وار کا تصور: آثار و روایات کی روشنی میں تجزیاتی جائزہ

الآفاق اسلامی و تحقیقی مجلہ
Biological warfare is the deliberate use of disease-causing pathogenic organisms such as bacteria, fungi and other toxins to harm humans, agriculture, animals and ultimately the economy of specific opponents as an act of war. Unlike conventional warfare,

Tracing holotype trajectories: Mapping the movement of the most valuable herbarium specimens

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Global efforts to protect biodiversity depend on fair access to key plant specimens. This study examines the distribution of 119,361 holotypes—unique herbarium specimens used to formally describe new plant species. By linking collection and storage data, we found that holotypes are increasingly held closer to their places of origin, particularly in ...

Still on the same page: A gender comparison of the top 100 picture books from the UK and China published 2011–2020

Children &Society, EarlyView., 2023
Abstract As a primary source for the early ages, picture books guide preschool children's gender perception through stories and illustrations. However, previous studies have criticised an overall gender inequality in children's picture books. Compared to the increasing attention on gender diversity in the UK picture book industry, there has been little
