Cutting edge research related to perovskite oxides and their derivatives for the carbon dioxide photoreduction reaction.
mRNA Transport in Fungal Top Models
The study of simple fungal model organisms provides valuable insights into fundamental mechanisms of mRNA transport boosting the understanding of similar events in higher eukaryotes.
Drug Nanocrystals for Cancer Therapy
Drug nanocrystals deliver drugs via oral, intravenous, and local administration and show promise towards treating cancer more effectively.
The Fourth Dimension: Fabricating Artificial Blood Vessels with 4D Bioprinting
An advanced 4D bioprinting approach uses shape-morphing, biopolymer hydrogels to form the basis for blood vessels and other tubular structures in artificial tissues and organs.
Cancer Therapy with Magnetic RNA Interference Nanoparticles
A team of researchers from National Sun Yat-sen University report on microscale RNA interference using iron oxide nanoparticle-modified lentivirus.
Harnessing the Marangoni Effect in Semiconductor Manufacturing
Researchers from the University of Hong Kong report how solution shearing of organic semiconductor crystals is influenced by a surface tension gradient. Using a Marangoni-effect-assisted bar coating method, ultrathin, uniform layers of crystals with large domain sizes are obtained that show excellent performance in organic field-effect transistors.
Flexible Electroluminescent Device for Modular Sensing Applications
Researchers introduce a new device concept for electroluminescent displays, which does not require transparent electrodes and can be used as remotely readable, spatially-responsive sensors that emit light in response to the accumulation and distribution of materials on the device surface.
The “Space Bear” is Weird, but Not That Weird…
Together with many eukaryotes in which relatively large percentages of lateral gene transfer had been claimed, Tardigrades are now downgraded to normality, and here’s why…
A Powerful Tool for Nanostructures
Abetz Volker and his team demonstrate how complex nanostructures can be achieved by polymer blending.
Photoreduction of Gaseous Nitrogen to Ammonia using Layered Double Hydroxide Nanosheets
For the first time, a new class of metal-to-metal charge-transfer (MMCT) systems is facilely synthesized.
