After more than four billion years of evolution, nature has created a large number of fascinating
living organisms, which show numerous peculiar structures and wonderful properties. …

This article provides a comprehensive review of recent (2008 and 2009) progress in gas
sensors based on semiconducting metal oxide one-dimensional (1D) nanostructures. During …

… to determine population sizes in wild giant pandas in two reserves (Wan, unpublished results).
… Here, we intend to emphasize two unique applications of oligonucleotide minisatellites, …

Based on the achievement of synthesis of ZnO nanowires in mass production, ZnO nanowires
gas sensors were fabricated with microelectromechanical system technology and ethanol-…

… −q)−(1/4) ln(1−2q)). 'p' is the proportion of transition site and 'q' is the proportion of transversion
site. Using Kimura distances, relative age of different TE types in the genome was plotted. …

The basic units in our brain are neurons, and each neuron has more than 1,000 synapse
connections. Synapse is the basic structure for information transfer in an ever-changing manner…

Modification of synaptic strength in the mammalian central nervous system (CNS) occurs at
both pre- and postsynaptic sites 1 , 2 . However, because postsynaptic receptors are likely to …

The thermal quenching of light emission is a critical bottleneck that hampers the real-world
application of lead halide perovskite nanocrystals in both electroluminescent and down-…

Individual ZnO nanowire transistors are fabricated, and their sensing properties are investigated.
The transistors show a carrier density of 2300 μ m− 1 and mobility up to 6.4 cm 2∕ V s⁠…

A convergent strategy for glycoprotein synthesis entails the assembly of individual peptidyl
substrates, each bearing a single carbohydrate domain. These subunits would then be …
