Surfactant-free interfacial growth of graphdiyne hollow microspheres and the mechanistic origin of their SERS activity

Nature Communications, 2023
As a two-dimensional carbon allotrope, graphdiyne possesses a direct band gap, excellent charge carrier mobility, and uniformly distributed pores. Here, a surfactant-free growth method is developed to efficiently synthesize graphdiyne hollow microspheres

General Synthesis of Large‐Area Transition Metal Nitride Porous Arrays for Highly Sensitive Surface‐Enhanced Raman Scattering Substrates with Ultrahigh Durability

Small Structures, 2023
A general polymerization‐induced strategy is developed to synthesize large‐area (100 cm2) transition metal nitride (TMN: TiN, MoN, WN, VN) porous arrays with high specific surface area (187.5–215.5 m2 g−1) for the first time, which also can be used to ...

Consumer default risk assessment in a banking institution [PDF]

AIP Conference Proceedings, 2016
Credit scoring is an application of financial risk forecasting to consumer lending. In this study, statistical analysis is applied to credit scoring data from a financial institution to evaluate the default risk of consumer loans. The default risk was found to be influenced by the spread, the age of the consumer, the number of credit cards owned by the

Comparison of Consumption Data and Phenotypical Antimicrobial Resistance in E. coli Isolates of Human Urinary Samples and of Weaning and Fattening Pigs from Surveillance and Monitoring Systems in Germany

Antibiotics, 2021
Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) data from humans are mostly collected from clinical isolates, whereas from livestock data also exist from colonizing pathogens. In Germany, livestock data are collected from clinical and nonclinical isolates.

From vision toward best practices: Evaluating in vitro transcriptomic points of departure for application in risk assessment using a uniform workflow

Frontiers in Toxicology, 2023
The growing number of chemicals in the current consumer and industrial markets presents a major challenge for regulatory programs faced with the need to assess the potential risks they pose to human and ecological health. The increasing demand for hazard

Applying a next generation risk assessment framework for skin sensitisation to inconsistent new approach methodology information.

ALTEX, 2023
Cosmetic products must be safe for their intended use. Regulatory bans on animal testing for new ingredients has resulted in a shift towards the use of new approach methodologies (NAM), such as in silico predictions and in chemico/in vitro data.

Consumer protection and risk assessment: sensitising substances in consumer products [PDF]

Allergo Journal International, 2019
The human immune system is confronted daily with a large, chemically-varied range of potentially sensitising substances. Skin sensitising substances are found, above all, in a plethora of consumer products, e. g. cosmetics, jewellery, earrings, toys, textiles, leather, other everyday commodities and, in some cases, also tattoos.
