Reducing supply risk of critical materials for clean energy via foreign direct investment
Our study provides a comprehensive overview of how Foreign Direct Investment influences the supply security of critical materials necessary for the clean energy transition.
Groundwater arsenic removal by a bioinspired porous membrane
Arsenic is one of the most toxic elements on earth, and a class 1 carcinogenic. The natural occurrence of arsenic in groundwaters is recognized as the major source of human exposure to this element. The problem of As contamination of water is therefore a major issue in different areas of the world.
Cancer-Alterome, how literature resources contribute to the refined interpretation of cancer pathology ?
"This study introduces Cancer-Alterome, a literature-mined dataset that focuses on the regulatory events of an organism’s biological processes or clinical phenotypes caused by genetic alterations. It empowers investigation of cancer pathology, enabling tracking of relevant literature support."
Double-walled Al-based MOF with large microporous specific surface area for trace benzene adsorption
A double-walled Al-based MOF, named as ZJU-520(Al), with large microporous specific surface area of 2235 m2/g, was synthesized. It has excellent trace benzene adsorption (5.98 mmol/g) and can effectively separate trace benzene from benzene and cyclohexane mixture gas.
Forward-predictive SERS-based chemical taxonomy for untargeted structural elucidation of epimeric cerebrosides
Can we elucidate the chemical structure of molecules based on the SERS spectra of other molecules?
Genomic insights into antibiotic resistance in E. coli ST131 bacteraemia cases in Wales
Our study illuminates the complex genomic landscape of Escherichia coli sequence type (ST)131, a well-known multidrug-resistant clone linked to bloodstream infections in Wales.
