We also study the spin dynamics under the comb-modulated HS pulse by numerical simulations, and experimentally demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed scheme, which is referred to as RApid-Scan with GApped excitation with Dual-mode Operation (RASGADO) NQR.Liposomes are promising vectors for pulmonary drug delivery, and have been used in marketed inhalation products. Membrane fluidity is an important property of liposomes. However, the influence of liposome membrane fluidity on its interaction with pulmonary physiological barriers is still unclear and needs elucidation. RNA Synthesis chemical Here, a series of PEGylated DPPC (1,2-dihexadecanoyl-rac-glycero-3-phosphocholine) liposomes with different membrane fluidity were prepared, and their interaction with different pulmonary physiological barriers, including the mucus permeation capacity, macrophage uptake, trachea distribution and retention behavior, was investigated. The liposomes exhibited sizes of around 100 nm, near-neutral surface charge, and the membrane fluidity increased with increasing cholesterol ratio. In vitro studies showed that the liposomes with lower membrane fluidity presented optimal mucus permeation efficiency, while those with higher membrane fluidity displayed lower macrophage uptake. An in vivo trachea distribution study revealed that liposomes with low or medium membrane fluidity exhibited enhanced trachea permeation. No significant difference in lung retention was found among these liposomes. In conclusion, the mucus permeation and macrophage phagocytosis behavior of liposomes could be well tuned by changing their membrane fluidity.Herein we report a simple and rapid approach to fabricate a vertically-ordered mesoporous silica-electrochemically reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite film (VMSF/ErGO) on an indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode surface by the electrochemically-assisted self-assembly (EASA) method, which is capable of greatly promoting the electroanalytical performance of rutin compared to the previously reported VMSF modified ITO electrode and, meanwhile, displaying excellent anti-fouling and anti-interference ability in pharmaceutical formulations and human serum. Due to the excellent electrocatalytic activity of ErGO and the synergistic enrichment effects from the π-π interaction of ErGO and the hydrogen bond effect from the VMSF, the present VMSF/ErGO/ITO sensor is able to detect rutin with a wide linear range, a high sensitivity and a low limit of detection. Moreover, the VMSF/ErGO/ITO electrode could retain the high sensing performance with high transmittance upon tailoring the concentration of the modified graphene oxide (GO), which provides a simple approach for modifying transparent ITO electrodes and could be potentially used for optoelectronic devices.Transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) are gaining increasing interest in the field of lithium ion batteries due to their unique structure. However, previous preparation methods have mainly focused on their growth from substrates or by exfoliation of the bulk materials. Considering colloidal synthesis has many advantages including precision control of morphology and crystal phases, there is significant scope for exploring this avenue for active material formation. Therefore, in this work, we explore the applicability of colloidal TMDs using WSe2 nanocrystals for Li ion battery anodes. By employing colloidal hot-injection protocol, we first synthesize 2D nanosheets in 2H and 1T' crystal phases. After detailed structural and surface characterization, we investigate the performance of these nanosheets as anode materials. We found that 2H nanosheets outperformed 1T' nanosheets exhibiting a higher specific capacity of 498 mA h g-1 with an overall capacity retention of 83.28%. Furthermore, to explore the role of morphology on battery performance, 3D interconnected nanoflowers in 2H crystal phase were also investigated as an anode material. It is worth noting that a specific capacity of 982 mA h g-1 was exhibited after 100 cycles by these nanoflowers. The anode materials were characterized prior to cycling and after 1, 25, and 100 charge/discharge cycles, by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM), to track the effects of cycling on the material.Carbohydrates are a large class of natural products that play key roles in a number of biological processes such as in cellular communication or disease progression. Carbohydrates are also used as vaccines and pharmaceuticals. Their synthesis through glycosylation reactions is challenging, and often stoichiometric amounts of promoters are required. Transition metal catalyzed glycosylation reactions are far less common, but can have advantages with respect to reaction conditions and selectivity. The review intends to approach the topic from the catalysis and carbohydrate perspective to encourage researchers from both the fields to perform research in the area. The article covers the basics in glycosylation and catalysis chemistry. The catalysts for the reaction can be roughly divided into two groups. In one group, the catalysts serve as Lewis acids. In the other group, the catalysts play a higher sophisticated role, are involved in all elementary steps of the mechanism and remain coordinated to the substrate throughout the whole catalytic cycle. Based on selected examples, the main trends in transition metal catalyzed glycosylation reactions are explained. Lewis acid catalysts tend to require a somewhat higher catalyst load compared to other organometallic catalysts. The reaction conditions such as the temperature and time depend in many cases on the leaving group employed. An outlook is also presented. The article is not meant to be comprehensive; it outlines the most common transition metal catalyzed processes with the intention to bring the catalysis and carbohydrate communities together and to inspire research activities in both areas.Hydrophobic porous materials with nano-pores are critical in many processes such as water desalination and biological membrane transportation. Herein, we performed molecular dynamics (MD) simulations on a prototypical hydrophobic nanochannel consisting of a (6,6) carbon nanotube (CNT) of 4.12 Å in radius and 13.72 Å in length immersed in water. The simulation shows that there are two major filling numbers of water N = 5 and N = 6, with the former being the most stable one. The confined waters form a single-file water chain with two hydrogen bonds per water. An extending water chain is formed for N = 5, with a bridge water near the pore of the CNT linking the water confined inside the CNT and hydration layer around the pore of the CNT. The bridge water can be considered as intermediate water characterized by three hydrogen bonds that distinguish from the confined water and bulk water. On the other hand, the hydration layer is depleted from the pore when N = 6. The analyses of the correlation of the bond order for the adjacent hydrogen bond pair of the hydration layer around the pore of the CNT does not show apparent difference from that of bulk water, though the former is slightly ordered.
