Biodegradable Acoustic Targeting for Ultrasound‐Supported Gene Therapy (BATUS) in Glioblastoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glioblastoma (GBM) remains one of the most challenging brain malignancies due to the restrictive nature of the blood–brain barrier (BBB), which severely limits effective drug and gene delivery. To overcome this, we introduce Biodegradable Acoustic Targeting for Ultrasound‐Supported Gene Therapy (BATUS), a modular platform that enables safe ...

Quinoline-Based Hydrazone Derivative as a Biocide Chemosensor: Synthesis and Sensing Studies

Engineering Proceedings, 2022
Tributyltin (TBT) is an organic biocide used on antifouling paints to avoid biofouling on boats and submersed structures. It is toxic to a variety of aquatic organisms and was banned by the Rotterdam Convention in 1998.

Pesticide MRLs as Trade Barriers: Evidence From Vietnam's Coffee and Rice Exporters

Agribusiness, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As tariffs have declined globally through bilateral and regional trade agreements, food safety standards have emerged as significant determinants of agricultural trade flows. This study examines the impact of maximum residue limits (MRLs) for five pesticides—Azoxystrobin, Chlorpyrifos, Chlorantraniliprole, Clothianidin, and Cyhalothrin—on ...

Preferential trading in agriculture: New insights from a structural gravity analysis and machine learning

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Preferential trade agreements (PTAs) contain various non‐tariff provisions, yet identifying their trade effects remains challenging because these commitments are high‐dimensional and strongly correlated within agreements. We estimated a theory‐consistent structural gravity model with domestic flows for 26 agricultural subsectors over 1988–2017

Dinuclear Group 4 Metallocene Catalysts of the Type [(Cp2M)2(μ‐Me)(μ‐C2R)]: Structure‐Activity Relationships in Ethylene Polymerization

Chemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Homo‐ and heterodinuclear group 4 metallocene complexes of the type [(Cp2M)2(μ‐Me)(μ‐C2R)] (M = Ti, Zr) are active catalysts for the polymerization of ethylene in the presence of aluminium‐free activators. The catalytically active species are proposed to have dinuclear character and depending on the type of activator, unique reactivity was observed ...
