Animal models in molecular biology research: Challenges, ethical imperatives, and the path to human‐relevant translation

open access: yesAnimal Models and Experimental Medicine, EarlyView.
The graphical abstract shows how molecular biology research has shifted from using traditional animal models toward using methods that are more relevant to humans. It points out the main problems, differences between species, difficulty in reproducing results, moral issues, and lack of infrastructure that make translational accuracy harder to achieve ...

Comparison of Receptor‐Mediated Endocytosis and Its Application to Enhance DNA Transfection by TFAMoplex

open access: yesAdvanced NanoBiomed Research, EarlyView.
We developed an assay to distinguish cellular binding from internalization. Compatible with microscopy and high‐throughput screening, the method identifies ligand‐mediated uptake. Applying top candidates to a protein‐based DNA carrier enhanced transfection efficiency, providing a rational strategy to improve non‐viral gene delivery systems.

DNA‐mimic for Specific Surface Functionalization of Zr‐MOFs for Bacterial Targeting

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
We introduce phosphotyrosine‐modified PNA as a superior, single‐step post‐synthesis surface coating for PCN‐222. The DNA mimic allows for controlled post‐functionalization with single‐stranded DNA for the attachment of protein moieties for bacterial targeting. ABSTRACT Nanosized metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) are versatile platforms used in biomedical

Environmental Identification of Novel Enzymes for Polyurethane and Polyamide Degradation

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Heteroatom‐containing plastics such as polyurethanes and nylons are produced at scale yet remain largely unrecycled. Biocatalysts offer a promising route to depolymerization under mild conditions. Here, we present a screening platform for the discovery of novel polyurethane‐ and nylon‐degrading enzymes from environmental samples and demonstrate ...

Child Labor and Learning [PDF]

open access: possibleSSRN Electronic Journal, 2013
This paper investigates the impact of working while in school on learning outcomes through the use of a unique micro panel dataset of students in the São Paulo municipal school system. The potential endogeneity of working decisions and learning outcomes is addressed through the use of a difference-in-difference estimator and it is shown that the ...

Child labor in Bombay

Child Abuse & Neglect, 1985
Of the world's largest child labor force in India, Bombay has over 30,000 working children, most of them migrants. In a prospective study of 73 working children from a part of Dharavi, the biggest slum in Asia, 68% were working as hotel boys; 22% had started working before their 10th birthday, a large number doing so to increase the family income, but ...

Child labor in China

China Economic Review, 2016
Abstract We present the first systematic study on child labor in China. Child labor is not a negligible social phenomenon in China; about 7.74% of children aged from 10 to 15 were working in 2010, and they worked for 6.75 h per day on average, and spent 6.42 h less per day on study than other children. About 90% of child laborers were still in school

Looking at Child Labor

Science, 2002
Excessive child labor has been widely observed, particularly in underdeveloped countries, where the International Child Labor Program estimates that there are at least 250 million working children between the ages of 5 and 14. As a consequence, child labor has been widely condemned by statutory agencies.

Local Labor Demand and Child Labor

SSRN Electronic Journal, 2007
This paper uses micro data from the Brazilian Pesquisa Nacional Por Amostra de Domicilios (PNAD) between 1981 and 2002 to ascertain the role that local labor demand proxies by male adult employment in the area of residence plays in shaping the work and schooling decisions of children aged 10-15.
