Electronic Structure Modulation in Dopant‐Controlled Single‐Atom Graphene Catalysts for Efficient Hydrogen Evolution: A Machine Learning and First‐Principles Study

open access: yesENERGY &ENVIRONMENTAL MATERIALS, EarlyView.
First‐principles DFT calculations and machine learning analysis show that heteroatom doping of graphene (G) significantly enhances the stabilization of transition‐metal single atoms by strengthening metal–support interactions and increasing charge transfer. N‐doped G exhibits higher adsorption energies, lower d‐band centers, and shorter TM–G bonds than

Nutraceutical Benefits of Anchomanes difformis Rhizome and Its Effects on Blood Glucose and Hepatorenal Function in Normoglycemic Rats

open access: yesFood Chemistry International, EarlyView.
Scientific analysis of Anchomanes difformis roots confirms significant nutraceutical potential, containing high levels of carbohydrates, proteins, and essential minerals. Phytochemical screening revealed antioxidants such as phenols and flavonoids, and although the extracts effectively lowered plasma glucose, safety testing showed dose‐dependent risks.
