Abstract Obtaining homochirality from biased symmetry‐breaking of self‐assembly in achiral molecules remains a great challenge due to the lack ingenious strategies and controlling their handedness. Here, we report first case symmetry breaking platinum (II) liquid crystals which self‐organize into an enantiomerically enriched single domain without selection handedness twist grain boundary TGB [ * ] phase. Most importantly, chiral control self‐organization can be achieved by using above...

Supported palladium sulfide catalysts are of great interest in selective hydrogenation reactions. In this work, "Pd4S", "Pd3S", "Pd16S7" and "PdS" supported on activated carbon were selectively synthesized by tailoring the H2-assisted sulfidation Pd/C with H2S at 150–750 °C, characterized means XRD, XPS, TEM, HRTEM, EDS, BET H2-TPR techniques. The results indicated that atmosphere, temperature metal–support interaction all played important roles determining crystal structure composition...

The major causes of mortality among patients who survive acute lung injury/ARDS (ALI/ARDS) are due to the extensive tissue remodelling and fibrosis. Use high-dose glucocorticoids reduce these inflammatory fibroproliferative responses has been shown do more harm than good. Recently, Meduri et al. found that early use low-dose prolonged methylprednisolone in with severe ALI/ARDS significantly relieved systemic response improved pulmonary extrapulmonary organ function. This study investigated...

Abstract A highly selective assay method has been developed to detect mercury (II) (Hg 2+ ) ions using cationic conjugated polymer (CCP). The transduction mechanism is based on a Hg promoted reaction. In the absence of ions, CCP can form complex with an anionic 1,3‐dithiole‐2‐thione derivative through electrostatic interactions. fluorescence efficiently quenched by via electron transfer process. Upon adding transformation into 1,3‐dithiole‐2‐one inhibits quenching, and recovered....
