Spatially resolved observations of Europa's surface with Subaru/IRCS at 1.0-1.8 $μm$: Upper limits to the abundances of hydrated Cl-bearing salts [PDF]
Recent infrared observations at 1.5-4.0 $\mu m$ using large ground-based telescopes have suggested that Cl-bearing salts are likely present on Europa's surface as non-ice materials. The chemical compositions of those Cl-bearing salts are key to understanding Europa's ocean chemistry and habitability. Here we report the results of ground-based telescope

Ion Clusters and Networks in "Water-in-Salt Electrolytes" [PDF]
Water-in-salt electrolytes (WiSEs) are a class of super-concentrated electrolytes that have shown much promise in replacing organic electrolytes in lithium-ion batteries. At the extremely high salt concentrations of WiSEs, ionic association is more complicated than the simple ion pair description.

Exploring the Pattern Formation of Lysozyme Drying Droplets in Phosphate Buffer Saline Solution [PDF]
The process of drying is a simple physical mechanism that drives a system to relax from one equilibrium point to another. The native states of the constituent particles in the droplets can be linked to the emergent morphological patterns via this drying process.

Coordination chemistry in fused-salt solutions [PDF]
Spectrophotometric work on structural determinations with fused-salt solutions is reviewed. Constraints placed on the method, as well as interpretation of the spectra, are discussed with parallels drawn to aqueous spectrophotometric curves of the same ...

Toll‐like receptors (TLRs) are important in the innate immune system. This study explores the zinc‐binding ability of the TLR2 TIR domain (TLR2TIR). We found that TLR2TIR binds zinc with nanomolar affinity through its cysteine residues. Two of them, C673 and C713, are vital for receptor activation, indicating that zinc may play a role in initiating ...

Comparative Study of the Competitive Adsorption of Mg, Ca and Sr Ions onto Resins
Existing studies on the adsorption of alkaline earth metal ions have mainly focused on the adsorption of one alkaline earth metal ion. However, under natural conditions, alkaline earth metal ions usually co-exist. While separating them using an adsorbent,
