The borate‐based cobalt‐iron catalyst promotes selective oxidation of water rather than chlorine evolution reaction during electrolysis of seawater. When integrated into a zero‐gap electrolyzer prototype, this catalyst supports robust splitting of artificial seawater into oxygen and hydrogen on an extended timescale.

Altered stimulus frequency and intensity dependence of the somatosensory evoked potential in rats after acute application of two mitochondrial toxins [PDF]
Mitochondrial toxins are a special group of toxicants with nervous system ef TRACT - fects. The resulting nervous system damage could be detected and followed-up by means of functional biomarkers but these still have to be worked out.

Addressing Bottlenecks to Achieve High‐Energy Sodium‐Ion Cells Using Tin Anodes
The challenges in coupling high voltage cathode with Sn‐alloying anode or in anode‐free cell, using glyme based electrolytes to realize high energy Na‐ion cells are reported. Surface protection strategy such as SnO coating on Sn or trapping the parasitic species from poisoning the anode, helps improving the cyclability, with ∼100% capacity retention ...
