Systematic Comparison of Commercial Uranyl‐Alternative Stains for Negative‐ and Positive‐Staining Transmission Electron Microscopy of Organic Specimens

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Negative‐ and positive‐staining TEM is essential for rapid nanometer‐resolution characterization of organic specimens ranging from nanoparticles to cells. Uranyl salts are widely used negative‐/positive‐stains but are radioactive and highly toxic to users and the environment.

Radon Natural Radioactivity Measurements for Evaluation of Primary Pollutants [PDF]

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2013
Radon is naturally released from the soil into the surface layer of the atmosphere, and by monitoring the natural radioactivity data of radon and its shot‐live decay products we can get valuable information about the dilution properties of the lower boundary layer.

Pollution State Modeling for Mexico City [PDF]

open access: yesJ. R. Stat. Soc. A., 182(3), 1039-1060 (2019), 2018
Ground-level ozone and particulate matter pollutants are associated with a variety of health issues and increased mortality. For this reason, Mexican environmental agencies regulate pollutant levels. In addition, Mexico City defines pollution emergencies using thresholds that rely on regional maxima for ozone and particulate matter with diameter less ...

Local Charge Density Enhancement Strategy in Nitrogen‐rich Covalent Organic Framework for Boosted Iodine Removal From Water

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The covalent organic framework, phen‐TPA, is designed for efficient iodine removal from aqueous solutions, featuring optimized iodine‐binding N‐sites. It shows the fastest iodine removal kinetics for I2 and the highest capacity for I3−. Large‐scale flow‐through tests demonstrate its effective separation of I2 and I3− in high‐salinity environments ...

Embedding Monodisperse LaOx Into Pt Nanoclusters for Ultra‐Stable and Efficient Hydrogen Isotope Oxidation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
The introduction of isolated LaOx species into Pt nanoclusters confined within the silicalite‐1 zeolite significantly enhanced the oxidative removal of hydrogen isotopes. Under reaction conditions of 50 °C and GHSV of 72,000 mL·g−1·h−1, the catalyst achieved an excellent H2 conversion efficiency of over 99%.
