Metarhizium anisopliaeMitigates the Phytotoxicity of Lead and Nanoplastics on Rice by Modifying Physiological, Transcriptomic, Metabolomic Activities, and Soil Microbiome

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Metarhizium anisopliae alleviates the phytotoxic effects of polyethylene nanoplastics (NP) and lead (Pb) in rice by decreasing Pb uptake, restoring antioxidant and hormonal equilibrium, and promoting growth. Additionally, the fungus modifies the rhizosphere microbiota, enhancing both contaminant tolerance and plant growth, thereby effectively ...

Rapid and Direct Detection of Methamphetamine in Biofluids using a MXene‐Enabled Electrochemical Sensor

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A MXene‐enhanced electrochemical sensor enables the rapid and direct detection of methamphetamine. Molecular simulations reveal that specific MXene surface functional groups act as key signal amplifiers by facilitating interfacial interactions. The sensor demonstrates high sensitivity and robust performance in complex biological matrices.

Pearl‐Like Bioinspired Coating Enables Regulation of Mg Degradation for Osteoporotic Bone Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
In this study, inspired by pearl architecture, we developed a layered Ca–P “brick” and Fn‐mimetic peptide “mortar” coating on Mg alloys. The Ca–P layer moderates corrosion and offers mineral cues, while the peptide enhances adhesion and regulates immune‐vascular responses.

Guide to the nature and methods of analysis of the clay fraction of tephras from the South Auckland region, New Zealand. [PDF]

, 1983
The manual outlines some of the more common laboratory procedures available for qualitatively and quantitatively analysing the composition of the tephric clays, many of which are difficult to determine because of their short range order or 'amorphous ...

Ion‐Confinement‐Assisted Erasure Purifies Oxidized MXene for Reuse

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An erasure‐purification strategy removes surface‐derived TiO2 from oxidized Ti3C2Tx MXene by ion‐confinement‐induced interfacial conversion to soluble titanates, followed by brief acid washing. The scalable process enables approximately 70% material recovery, restores electrical conductivity, and recovers functional performance, including high ...
