Differential metabolic responses in three life stages of mussels Mytilus galloprovincialis exposed to cadmium

, 2017
Cadmium (Cd) is one of the most important metal contaminants in the Bohai Sea. In this work, NMR-based metabolomics was used to investigate the toxicological effects of Cd at an environmentally relevant concentration (50 A mu g L-1) in three different ...

Improve the Thermal Conductivity, Insulation Performance and Mechanical Properties of Silicone Rubber by Constructing EG‐PDA‐Cu Hybrid Nanoparticles

Journal of Polymer Science, EarlyView.
In this work, a novel expanded graphite‐supported nano‐copper polydopamine composite was designed and synthesized. The procedure involved first modifying EG via a mussel‐inspired technique to deposit a polydopamine coating, after which Cu2+ ions were reduced to immobilize copper nanoparticles onto the EG‐PDA substrate.
