This study introduces a synergistic dual-plasticizer strategy incorporating propylene carbonate and glycerol into a citric acid-crosslinked carboxymethyl cellulose gel polymer electrolyte, which simultaneously enhances ionic conductivity and Zn²⁺ transference number to achieve stable zinc deposition and durable performance in aqueous zinc-ion batteries.
Newly synthesized pH-sensitive dicephalic cationic surfactants, particularly those with longer alkyl chains, effectively modify the surface properties of polystyrene and stainless steel while demonstrating potent antimicrobial, anti-adhesive, and biofilm-eradicating activities against *S. epidermidis* and *C. albicans*, though they showed no efficacy against *P. aeruginosa*.
This study demonstrates that Fe₃O₄/Au core–satellite magnetic particles, optimized for intermediate extinction to balance signal intensity and dynamic range, serve as high-contrast direct colorimetric reporters enabling a rapid, smartphone-quantified lateral flow immunoassay for prostate-specific antigen in undiluted human serum without requiring external excitation or signal amplification.
This study demonstrates that incorporating ferroelectric PVDF-TrFE into electrospun PCDTBT:PCBM nanofibrous active layers significantly enhances charge transport and exciton dissociation, thereby boosting the power conversion efficiency of inverted organic solar cells from 5.86% to 7.12%.
This study demonstrates that asymmetric tris-heteroleptic Ir(III) complexes, specifically [Ir(dpbq)(iqbt)(ftrpz)], achieve superior color-purity near-infrared emission and record-breaking external quantum efficiencies in all-solution-processed NIR-PLEDs by optimizing the trade-off between efficiency, emission peak, and spectral width.
This study reports the synthesis and structural characterization of four novel metal-complex borates featuring distinct hydrogen-bonded or covalent N-M-O-B linkages, which, upon controlled thermal treatment, yield efficient non-precious-metal electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction in alkaline media.
This DFT study demonstrates that moderately oxidized graphene oxide derivatives, particularly GO(II), serve as superior tunable nanocarriers and sensors for the anticancer drug Ifosfamide phosphorus-substituted heterocycle by offering an optimal balance of strong yet reversible adsorption and electronic sensitivity compared to pristine graphene.
This paper presents a rapid, equipment-minimal protocol for conjugating anti-HER2 aptamers to gold nanoparticles via freezing-directed assembly and strict buffer control, which overcomes the aggregation and reproducibility issues of traditional salt-aging methods to produce robust colorimetric aptasensors.
This study demonstrates that ball milling at a 1:40 ball-to-powder ratio optimizes the homogenization and particle size distribution of NiO-YSZ anode materials containing starch pore formers, resulting in a superior microstructure for solid oxide fuel cell applications.
This study demonstrates that a green-synthesized chitosan/PVA nanocomposite film incorporating Momordica charantia extract and zinc oxide nanoparticles effectively combats multidrug-resistant diabetic foot ulcer pathogens and accelerates wound healing through enhanced antimicrobial activity and fibroblast migration while maintaining biocompatibility.
