Electrocatalytic hydrogenation (ECH) of guaiacol for production chemical and fuel in a divided cell using earth abundant metal electrodes. Specific energies shown below the organics are their higher heating values (HHV).
Abstract Multiplexed antibody-based imaging enables the detailed characterization of molecular and cellular organization in tissues. Advances field now allow high-parameter data collection (>60 targets); however, considerable expertise capital are needed to construct antibody panels employed by these methods. Organ mapping community-validated resources that save time money, increase reproducibility, accelerate discovery support construction a Human Reference Atlas.
We introduce single cell Proteoform imaging Mass Spectrometry (scPiMS), which realizes the benefit of direct solvent extraction and MS detection intact proteins from cells dropcast onto glass slides. Sampling whole proteoforms by individual ion mass spectrometry enable a scalable approach to proteomics. This new scPiMS platform addresses throughput bottleneck in proteomics boosts processing rate several fold while accessing protein composition with higher coverage.
Our lab has developed a new series of self-immolative MR agents for the rapid detection enzyme activity in mouse models expressing β-galactosidase (β-gal). We investigated two molecular architectures to create that detect β-gal by modulating coordination water GdIII . The first is an intermolecular approach, wherein we designed several structural isomers maximize endogenous carbonate ions. second involves intramolecular mechanism q modulation. incorporated pendant coordinating carboxylate...
Abstract The vast complexity of the proteome currently overwhelms any single analytical technology in capturing full spectrum proteoform diversity. In this study, we evaluated complementarity two cutting-edge proteomic technologies—single-molecule protein sequencing and individual ion mass spectrometry—for analyzing recombinant human IL-6 (rhIL-6) at amino acid, peptide, intact levels. For single-molecule sequencing, employ recently released Platinum ® instrument. Next-Generation Protein...

ProGlo is an efficient steroid receptor-targeted magnetic resonance (MR) imaging contrast agent (CA). It has been shown to bind the progesterone receptor (PR) and produce enhanced image in PR-positive cells tissues vitro vivo. However, hydrophobicity of targeting domain (logP = 1.4) limits its formulation delivery at clinically relevant doses. In this work, a hydrophobic moiety was utilized drive adsorption onto nanodiamond (ND) clusters form water-soluble nanoconstruct −2.4) with 80%...

Abstract BACKGROUND GBM genomic profiling relies on sequencing a limited tumor tissue sample, which is invasive and may underrepresent molecular heterogeneity. CSF, can be obtained less invasively, in intimate contact with lesions better capture the full profile of tumor. However, datasets contemporaneously collected CSF to support this claim have been lacking. To evaluate performance NGS, we conducted pilot study patients undergoing resection for suspected recurrence following first-line...
