Synthesis, assembly and applications of novel two-dimensional metal chalcogenide nanomaterials by Tan, Chaoliang

“…TEM analyses revealed that these metal sulphide nanoplates were aligned on the TiS2 with perfect epitaxial alignment effect to vertical 2D epitaxial heteronanostructures. Moreover, when used as the anode in a Li ion battery, the CuS-TiS2 heteronanostructure-based electrode exhibited good performance. …”

The development and application of fish scale waste for tissue engineering applications : waste-to-resource conversion of resource resilient materials by Wang, Jun Kit

“…In general, collagen with high thermal stability is required to provide the necessary thermo-mechanical strength and degradation stability when implanted in vivo. Although studies have shown that the freshwater fish-derived collagen exhibits better thermal stability as compared to seawater fish-derived collagen, to our knowledge, limited studies have been carried out to compare the fish-derived collagen from different fish species, particular those extracted from fish scales. …”

Development of (TAML) iron complexes for photocatalytic, oxidative water treatment by Lim, Jia Hui

“…To achieve this undertaking, we hypothesized that (TAML)Fe caomplexes, which have been reported to be excellent catalysts for the degradation of persistent pollutants, can be activated photochemically, when coupled with suitable photosensitizers in the right conditions. …”

Multiple signatures of a disease in potential biomarker space : getting the signatures consensus and identification of novel biomarkers by Ow, Ghim Siong, Kuznetsov, Vladimir Andreevich

“…Conclusions: Our method provides a strategy that identify/predict within a tGSS of interest, gID subsets that are either SN or SC when compared to other rGSSs. Practically, our results suggest that there is a stronger association of the IGF1 signature genes with the 70 BC rGSSs, than for the obesity-associated signature. …”

Event rates and incidence of post-COVID-19 condition in hospitalised SARS-CoV-2 positive children and young people and controls across different pandemic waves: exposure-stratified... by Pazukhina, E, Rumyantsev, M, Baimukhambetova, D, Bondarenko, E, Markina, N, El-Taravi, Y, Petrova, P, Ezhova, A, Andreeva, M, Iakovleva, E, Bobkova, P, Pikuza, M, Trefilova, A, Abdeeva, E, Galiautdinova, A, Filippova, Y, Bairashevskaia, A, Zolotarev, A, Bulanov, N, DunnGalvin, A, Chernyavskaya, A, Kondrikova, E, Kolotilina, A, Gadetskaya, S

“…The only significant difference between Omicron variant cohort and reference cohort was decreased school attendance. When comparing the Wuhan and Omicron variant cohorts, higher incidence of PCC and event rates of fatigue, decreased physical activity, and deterioration of relationships was observed. …”

Investigating the content and function of stress-induced extracellular vesicles in colorectal cancer by Mason, J

“…Furthermore, individuals who show a clinical response to nCRT appear to exhibit a different EV-miRNA profile when compared to non-responders, which may provide a novel method to predict response to treatment.…”

Culture of human pluripotent stem cells and neural networks in 3D using an optogenetic approach and a hydrogel model by Lee, S

“…Interestingly, ChR2-YFP expression of Axol and SY5Y cells was detectable when transferred to the 3D culture system.</p> <p>The optogenetically modified neurons were found responsive to light stimulation, showing firing patterns and calcium events typical of early developing neurons (e.g. mixed and burst waves; single and multipeak spikes). …”

Boronic acid and nitrofuranyl derivatives as potential therapeutics by Dey, AL

“…It is expected that the average reader would like to skip through the literature review of this chapter; however, at the risk of being forward and in the interests of completeness, a knowledge of its existence is thought desirable for the curious reader so that they may wish to utilise them when occasion demands. The aforementioned relatively short introduction in Chapter 2 precedes the detailed preparations of the Dynamic Combinatorial Library of benzodiazaborines and boronate esters herein. …”

Seroprevalence of SARS-CoV-2 in children and adolescents by Ratcliffe, H

“…The results showed a high prevalence of pre-existing immunity against seasonal coronaviruses when measuring IgG concentration of antibodies against spike protein but did not confer protection against SARS-CoV-2.…”
