The explorations of earth-abundant, noble metal-free, highly efficient electrocatalysts for water-splitting reactions have been considered as highly significant for imperishable energy production. Though the metal organic framework (MOF)-based materials are highly promising candidates in the area of material chemistry, the combined properties associated with MOFs and the one-dimensional (1D) fibrous matrix, which can lead to better electrocatalytic performance, have been less explored. Herein, we ascertain a fabrication method for ZIF-67 (zeolite imidazolate framework) nanofibers (NFs), Fe-ZIF NFs, and Fe-ZIF-67 NFs via the wet chemical combined electrospinning (ES) approach. The as-synthesized catalysts were utilized for the electrochemical reaction, which showed a high efficiency toward the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). Compared to other catalysts, the Fe-ZIF-67 NF catalyst showed a very less overpotential of 278 mV at a fixed current density of 10 mA cm-2. The obtained Tafel slope and Rct values are 77 mV dec-1 and 1.2 Ω, respectively. The post-X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis revealed the transformation of FeOOH during the OER study along with Co3+ states in mixed Fe-ZIF-67 NFs. In an alkaline electrolyzer, Fe-ZIF-67 NFs were utilized as the anode and a Pt wire as the cathode in 1 M KOH solution, which required a cell voltage of 1.68 V at 10 mA cm-2 current density with astonishing stability. Hence, this work should open a new path for the exploration of efficient non-noble metal catalysts for energy-related applications.The promise of crystal composites with direction-specific properties is an attractive prospect for diverse applications; however, synthetic strategies for realizing such composites remain elusive. Here, we demonstrate that anisotropic agarose gel networks can mechanically "mold" calcite crystal growth, yielding anisotropically structured, single-crystal composites. Drying and rehydration of agarose gel films result in the affine deformation of their fibrous networks to yield fiber alignment parallel to the drying plane. Precipitation of calcium carbonate within these anisotropic networks results in the formation of calcite crystal composite disks oriented parallel to the fibers. The morphology of the disks, revealed by nanocomputed tomography imaging, evolves with time and can be described by linear-elastic fracture mechanics theory, which depends on the ratio between the length of the crystal and the elastoadhesive length of the gel. Precipitation of calcite in uniaxially deformed agarose gel cylinders results in the formation of rice-grain-shaped crystals, suggesting the broad applicability of the approach. These results demonstrate how the anisotropy of compliant networks can translate into the desired crystal composite morphologies. This work highlights the important role organic matrices can play in mechanically "molding" biominerals and provides an exciting platform for fabricating crystal composites with direction-specific and emergent functional properties.Frost is ubiquitously observed in nature whenever warmer and more humid air encounters colder than melting point surfaces (e.g., morning dew frosting). However, frost formation is problematic as it damages infrastructure, roads, crops, and the efficient operation of industrial equipment (i.e., heat exchangers, cooling fins). While lubricant-infused surfaces offer promising antifrosting properties, underlying mechanisms of frost formation and its consequential effect on frost-to-surface dynamics remain elusive. Here, we monitor the dynamics of condensation frosting on micro- and hierarchically structured surfaces (the latter combines micro- with nano- features) infused with lubricant, temporally and spatially resolved using laser scanning confocal microscopy. The growth dynamics of water droplets differs for micro- and hierarchically structured surfaces, by hindered drop coalescence on the hierarchical ones. However, the growth and propagation of frost dendrites follow the same scaling on both surface types. Frost propagation is accompanied by a reorganization of the lubricant thin film. We numerically quantify the experimentally observed flow profile using an asymptotic long-wave model. see more Our results reveal that lubricant reorganization is governed by two distinct driving mechanisms, namely (1) frost propagation speed and (2) frost dendrite morphology. These in-depth insights into the coupling between lubricant flow and frost formation/propagation enable an improved control over frosting by adjusting the design and features of the surface.
Omnitrope
(somatropin, Sandoz Inc.) is one of several recombinant human growth hormones (rhGH) approved in the United States (US) for use in pediatric indications, including growth hormone deficiency (GHD) and idiopathic short stature (ISS). We report data on the effectiveness and safety of Omnitrope
in the US cohort of the PATRO Children (international, longitudinal, non-interventional) study.
All visits and assessments are carried out according to routine clinical practice, and doses of Omnitrope
are given according to country-specific prescribing information.
By September 2018, 294 US patients were recruited; the two largest groups were GHD (n=193) and ISS (n=62). Across all indications, HSDS improvement (ΔHSDS) from baseline at three years was +1.0 (rhGH-naïve, +1.2; pre-treated, +0.7). In pre-pubertal patients, ΔHSDS from baseline at three years was +0.94 (rhGH-naïve, +1.3; pre-treated, +0.7). Following three years of treatment, ΔHSDS from baseline was +1.3 in rhGH-naïve GHD patients and +1.1 in rhGH-naïve ISS patients. In pre-pubertal rhGH-naïve patients, ΔHSDS from baseline was +1.3 and +1.2 in GHD and ISS patients, respectively. Overall, 194 patients (66.0%) experienced adverse events (AEs; n=886 events); most were of mild-moderate intensity. Five patients (1.7%) had AEs that were suspected to be treatment-related (n=5 events). All reported neoplasms were benign, non-serious, and considered unrelated to rhGH therapy. No AEs of diabetes mellitus or hyperglycemia were reported.
Omnitrope
appears to be well tolerated and effective in the majority of patients, without evidence of an increased risk of developing unexpected AEs, diabetes mellitus, or new malignancies during treatment.
