Potential Production of Theranostic Boron Nitride Nanotubes (⁶⁴Cu-BNNTs) Radiolabeled by Neutron Capture

Nanomaterials, 2021
In this work, the radioisotope 64Cu was obtained from copper (II) chloride dihydrate in a nuclear research reactor by neutron capture, (63Cu(n,γ)64Cu), and incorporated into boron nitride nanotubes (BNNTs) using a solvothermal process.

A Red-Emitting Fluorescence Sensor for Detecting Boronic Acid-Containing Agents in Cells

Sensors, 2022
The amount and localization of boron-10 atoms delivered into tumor cells determines the therapeutic effect of boron neutron capture therapy (BNCT) and, consequently, efforts have been directed to develop fluorescence sensors to detect intracellular ...

Assembled Hyaluronic Acid Therapeutics for Targeting M1 Macrophages and Regulating Immune Homeostasis for Ulcerative Colitis Treatment

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An orally administered, drug‐free hyaluronic acid nanoassembly, uhNAs‐OA, accumulates in the inflamed colon and is preferentially internalized by M1‐like macrophages via HA‐CD44 interactions. uhNAs‐OA scavenges excess ROS, suppresses NF‐κB signaling and remodels the colonic immune landscape, resulting in robust therapeutic efficacy in acute, chronic ...

Sensitization for proton beam therapy using 10B enriched and natural isotopic abundance of boronophenylalanine

Scientific Reports
Nuclear reactions between proton irradiation and boron via p + 11B→3α (boron proton-capture reaction; BPCR) and n + 10B→α+7Li (boron neutron-capture reaction; BNCR) enhance the cell-killing effects of proton beam irradiation (PBI); however, which ...

Anode‐Free Sodium Metal Batteries: From Materials Design to System‐Level Integration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Anode‐free sodium metal batteries hold no sodium reserve, so every inefficiency becomes permanent loss. Resolving the inventory into reversible, dead, and chemically bound fractions exposes what Coulombic efficiency hides. Practical 500‐cycle operation requires above 99.95%, a threshold few systems meet under lean electrolyte and high areal capacity ...

Ether‐Based Electrolytes and the Solvation Structure in Sodium Ion Batteries

Advanced Energy Materials, EarlyView.
Ether electrolytes enable high‐performance sodium‐ion batteries through their unique physicochemical properties, particularly distinctive solvation structures and co‐intercalation behavior. However, the localized solvation structure and its dynamic evolution during electrochemical processes remain a “black box”.
