Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.

Bright Sparks of Single-Atom and Nano-Islands in Catalysis: Breaking Activity-Stability Trade-Off

Nano-Micro Letters
Highlights Single-atom nano-islands architecture enables “moving but not aggregation” of single atoms, fundamentally overcoming the inherent activity-stability trade-off in single-atom catalysts.

Mixed-valence molybdenum oxide as a recyclable sorbent for silver removal and recovery from wastewater

Nature Communications, 2023
Silver ions in wastewater are a major health hazard, and there is an urgent need to develop methods to reliably extract them. Here, the authors show that mixed-valence molybdenum oxide can selectively adsorb and reduce Ag+ from wastewater and be easily ...

Near‐Infrared Emitting Lanthanide Catecholate Giant Single Crystals – Morphology Control and Photon Down‐Conversion

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Controlled syntheses of lanthanide coordination polymers based on the dihydroxybenzoquinone (DHBQ) organic linker afforded large single crystals of Ln‐DHBQ CPs (Ln = Yb, Nd). A novel structural variant of Yb‐DHBQ is identified by means of single crystal diffraction analysis.

Highly Sensitive Electrochemical Biosensor Based on Hairy Particles with Controllable High Enzyme Loading and Activity

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
For the first time, a highly sensitive electrochemical biosensor based on SiO2‐based hairy particles with a grafted PDMAEMA polymer brush containing a quantifiable and large amount of immobilized Laccase is reported. The fabricated biosensor exhibits a sensitivity of 0.14 A·m⁻¹, a limit of detection (LOD) of 0.1 µm, and a detection range of 0.3–750 µm,

CircRNA_1156 Attenuates Neodymium Nitrate-Induced Hepatocyte Ferroptosis by Inhibiting the ACSL4/PKCβII Signaling Pathway

Antioxidants
Ferroptosis, a form of regulated cell death driven by lipid peroxidation, has been implicated in the pathogenesis of liver diseases. This study investigates the role of circRNA_1156 in neodymium nitrate (Nd(NO3)3)-induced hepatocyte ferroptosis.

Recognition of Trace Element Contamination Using Ficus macrophylla Leaves in Urban Environment [PDF]

, 2020
Urban areas are characterized by numerous pollutants emitted by anthropic sources both in the form of solid and gaseous particulates. Biomonitoring is an easy, economical, and accessible approach for the determination of atmospheric pollutants.
