Watching early stage nucleation In classic theory, a metastable disordered dense liquid or amorphous solid cluster spontaneously and irreversibly transforms into crystalline nucleus. Jeon et al. observed the formation of gold crystals on graphene substrate through reduction precursor using an electron beam. Rather than view, they instead pathway that involves dynamic reversible fluctuations developing nuclei between states. The lifetime in state decreases with increasing size, at...
A wearable surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensor has been developed as a patch type to utilize molecular sweat sensor. Here, the SERS is designed comprise sweat-absorbing layer, which an interface human skin, active and dermal protecting layer that prevents damage contaminations. silk fibroin protein film (SFF) basement absorbs aqueous solutions filtrates molecules larger than nanopores created in β-sheet matrix of SFF. On SFF plasmonic silver nanowire (AgNW) formed enhance signal...
Direct imaging of nanoparticle solutions by liquid phase transmission electron microscopy has enabled unique in situ studies motion and growth. In the present work, we report on real-time formation two-dimensional arrays very low diffusive limit, where nanoparticles are mainly driven capillary forces solvent fluctuations. We find that superlattice appears to be segregated into multiple regimes. Initially, front drags nanoparticles, condensing them an amorphous agglomerate. Subsequently,...
Nonclassical features of crystallization in solution have been recently identified both experimentally and theoretically. In particular, an amorphous-phase-mediated pathway is found various systems as important route, different from the classical nucleation growth model. Here, we utilize high-resolution situ transmission electron microscopy with graphene liquid cells to study formation Ni nanocrystals. An amorphous phase precipitated initial stage reaction. Within particles, crystalline...
The rapid detection of bacterial metabolites responsible for cell communication is important the early diagnosis infection and treatment with appropriate antibiotics. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) has provided amplified molecular fingerprints, serving as one most promising nondestructive label-free direct methods. However, analysis complex cultures using conventional SERS approach difficult. Here, we design a new paper-based 3D substrate establish facile one-pot Au...
Unit-cell-thick MoS2 is a promising electrocatalyst for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) owing to its tunable catalytic activity, which determined based on energetics and molecular interactions of different types HER active sites. Kinetic responses sites, including onset, diffusion electrolyte H2 bubbles, continuation these processes, are important factors affecting activity . Investigating requires direct real-time analysis occurring spatially independent Herein, surface observed in...
Obesity has been investigated as a risk factor for various malignancies, including colon cancer. A case-control study was conducted on patients in three colonoscopy practices New York City to determine possible factors colorectal adenomatous polyps, known precursor lesion most cases of Among 301 case subjects with incident polyps (174 men and 127 women) 506 control (223 283 women), an increased observed increasing body mass index women (odds ratio 2.1, 95% confidence interval 1.1–4.0;...
Background. Radiation, including radiation therapy (RT) for a variety of conditions, is known to be lung carcinogen. Methods. Data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results program National Cancer Institute 1973-1986 were utilized investigate whether RT breast cancer affects risk subsequent cancer. The relative was calculated by comparing incidence rate in patients with irradiated that those nonirradiated Results. It found overall increased women who underwent irradiation compared...
Colloidal nanocrystals inherently undergo structural changes during chemical reactions. The robust structure-property relationships, originating from their nanoscale dimensions, underscore the significance of comprehending dynamic behavior in reactive media. Moreover, complexity and heterogeneity inherent atomic structures require tracking transitions individual at three-dimensional (3D) resolution. In this study, we introduce method time-resolved Brownian tomography to investigate temporal...
Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) is a crucial analysis method in materials science and structural biology, as it offers high spatiotemporal resolution for characterization reveals structure-property relationships dynamics at atomic molecular levels. Despite technical advancements EM, the nature of beam makes EM imaging inherently detrimental to even low-dose applications. We introduce SHINE, Self-supervised High-throughput Image denoising Neural network Electron microscopy,...
The possible association of colorectal adenomatous polyps, a precursor lesion for cancer, with cigarette smoking, alcohol consumption, and coffee caffeine consumption was investigated in case-control study. Between April 1986 March 1988, 271 cases patients pathologically confirmed incident polyps 457 control subjects were collected from three colonoscopy practices New York City. Information on exposure obtained by structured interviews. After adjustment age, statistically significant odds...
Drying a colloidal solution of nanoparticles is versatile method to construct self-assembled structures nanoparticles. However, mechanistic understanding has mostly relied on empirical knowledge obtained from the final self-assembly as relevant processes during solvent drying are likely kinetic and far equilibrium.
