… Many TMDs possess a graphene-like layered structure with the single carbon atomic layer
of graphene replaced by the repeat unit X–M–X, where M is a transition metal of group VI (Mo …

In vivo imaging in the second near-infrared window (NIR-II, 1000–1700 nm), which enables
us to look deeply into living subjects, is producing marvelous opportunities for biomedical …

Well-dispersed silver nanoparticles were prepared by chemical reduction method, with
polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) as dispersant. The mechanisms of PVP in the preparation process …

We carried out metagenomic shotgun sequencing and a metagenome-wide association
study (MGWAS) of fecal, dental and salivary samples from a cohort of individuals with …

… Dissected embryos or tissues were fixed on ice for 10 min in 4% paraformaldehyde containing

We use micro-Raman and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy at 300 K to investigate the
influence of uniaxial tensile strain on the vibrational and optoelectronic properties of …

Background Recently, in a cross-sectional study of 201 children in Araihazar, Bangladesh,
exposure to arsenic (As) in drinking water has been shown to lower the scores on tests that …

The triglycerides in chylomicrons are hydrolyzed by lipoprotein lipase (LpL) along the
luminal surface of the capillaries. However, the endothelial cell molecule that facilitates …

… The particles and colloids were also analyzed by the X-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission
electron microscopy (TEM) and UV–visible (UV–vis) spectrophotometer. The TEM photo …
