Surface ozone is a severe air pollution problem in the North China Plain, which home to 300 million people. Ozone concentrations are highest summer, driven by fast photochemical production of hydrogen oxide radicals (HO
Abstract Severe events of wintertime particulate air pollution in Beijing (winter haze) are associated with high relative humidity (RH) and fast production sulfate from the oxidation sulfur dioxide (SO 2 ) emitted by coal combustion. There has been considerable debate regarding mechanism for SO oxidation. Here we show evidence field observations a haze event that rapid nitrogen (NO nitrous acid (HONO) takes place, latter producing oxide (N O). Sulfate shifts to larger particle sizes during...
Secondary organic aerosol (SOA) produced by atmospheric oxidation of primary emitted precursors is a major contributor to fine particulate matter (PM
Conventional studies on photocatalytic oxidation reaction have focused primarily hydroxyl radical (•OH) as a major reactive oxygen species (ROS). This perspective may not be suitable for gaseous HCHO photodegradation due to the short lifetime and diffusion length of •OH. Identification divergent ROS understanding their characteristics gas-phase are further required. Here, we report BiOI/TiO2 p-n junction photocatalyst, which uses mobile singlet (1O2) main photooxidation. The introduction...
Betatrophin/angiopoietin-like protein 8 (ANGPTL8) is a liver-secreted recently identified as potent stimulator of beta cell proliferation in mice. However, it unclear how betatrophin regulated humans with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). We investigated the role mice and without NAFLD. Serum levels were examined by ELISA 164 subjects, including 96 patients Levels significantly elevated subjects NAFLD compared controls (1.301 ± 0.617 vs. 0.900 0.574 μg/L, P < 0.001), even after...
Bacterial cellulose nanofiber (BCNF) with high thermal stability produced by an ecofriendly process has emerged as a promising solution to realize safe and sustainable materials in the large-scale battery. However, understanding of actual behavior BCNF full-cell battery been lacking, yield is still limited for commercialization. Here, we report entire production manufacture. We systematically constructed strain highest (31.5%) increasing metabolic flux improved safety introducing Lewis base...
Particulate matter (PM) and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are recognised as hazardous air pollutants threatening human health. Disposable filters generally used for purification despite frequent replacement waste generation problems. However, the development of a novel regenerable robust filter long-term use is huge challenge. Here, we report on new class facile water-washing ceramic catalyst (CCFs), developed to simultaneously remove PM (>95%) VOCs (>82%) in single-pass maximized space...
Alumina nanotubes, nanofibers, and nanorods were synthesized through a new method based on surfactant-driven hydrothermal process, but without adding any organic solvent. Our procedure provides single-step, low-temperature route to different alumina nanostructures with thermal stability by varying the nature of surfactants.
Highly active bimetallic catalysts, Pt–Co nanoparticles supported on yttriastabilized zirconia (YSZ; see picture) can be prepared in a single step by co-impregnation. This system shows high catalytic activity for the selective oxidation of CO presence excess hydrogen, especially at temperatures below 423 K.

Background: Since cancer cells are normally over-expressed cathepsin B, we synthesized dendrimer-methoxy poly(ethylene glycol) (MPEG)-doxorubicin (DOX) conjugates using a B-cleavable peptide for anticancer drug targeting. Methods: Gly-Phe-Leu-Gly was conjugated with the carboxylic acid end groups of dendrimer, which then MPEG amine and doxorubicin by aid carbodiimide chemistry (abbreviated as DendGDP). Dendrimer-MPEG-DOX without linkage also comparison (DendDP). Nanoparticles were prepared...
Abstract. Geostationary satellite measurements of aerosol optical depth (AOD) over East Asia from the Ocean Color Imager (GOCI) and Advanced Himawari (AHI) instruments can augment surface monitoring fine particulate matter (PM2.5) air quality, but this requires better understanding AOD–PM2.5 relationship. Here we use GEOS-Chem chemical transport model to analyze critical variables determining relationship by simulation observations satellite, aircraft, ground-based datasets. This includes...
Growth hormone (GH) can induce an accelerated lipolysis. Impaired secretion of GH in obesity results the consequent loss lipolytic effect GH. Dietary restriction as a basic treatment for is complicated by poor compliance, protein catabolism, and slow rates or weight loss. has anabolic increasing insulin-like growth factor (IGF)-I. We investigated effects dietary on actions, well changes insulin obesity. 24 obese subjects (22 women 2 men; 22–46 years old) were fed diet 25 kcal/kg ideal body...
