Spectroscopic characterization and mechanistic studies on visible light photoredox carbon–carbon bond formation by bis(arylimino)acenaphthene copper photosensitizers
(2018)
Currently, the most popular molecular photosensitizers used for synthetic organic chemistry and energy applications are still the noble metal-based ruthenium and iridium complexes that usually require expensive metal and ...
Lipid bilayer stress-activated IRE-1 modulates autophagy during endoplasmic reticulum stress
(2018)
Metabolic disorders such as nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are emerging epidemics that affect the global population. One facet of these disorders is attributed to the disturbance of membrane lipid composition. ...
On linear complementary pair of nD cyclic codes
(2018)
The security parameter for a linear complementary pair (C,D) of codes is defined to be the minimum of the minimum distances d(C) and d(D⊥). Recently, Carlet et al. showed that if C and D are both cyclic or both two-dimensional ...
Artificial photosynthesis by light absorption, charge separation, and multielectron catalysis
(2018)
Our society’s current energy demands are largely met by the exploitation of fossil fuels, which are unsustainable and environmentally harmful resources. However, Nature has provided us with a clean and virtually limitless ...
Hybrid nanomaterials with single-site catalysts by spatially controllable immobilization of nickel complexes via photoclick chemistry for alkene epoxidation
(2018)
Catalyst deactivation is a persistent problem not only for the scientific community but also in industry. Isolated single-site heterogeneous catalysts have shown great promise to overcome these problems. Here, a versatile ...
Comparative transcriptomic and metagenomic analyses of influenza virus-infected nasal epithelial cells from multiple individuals reveal specific nasal-initiated signatures
(2018)
In vitro and in vivo research based on cell lines and animals are likely to be insufficient in elucidating authentic biological and physiological phenomena mimicking human systems, especially for generating pre-clinical ...
Distribution and cycling of terrigenous dissolved organic carbon in peatland-draining rivers and coastal waters of Sarawak, Borneo
(2018)
South-East Asia is home to one of the world's largest stores of tropical peatland and accounts for roughly 10% of the global land-to-sea dissolved organic carbon (DOC) flux. We present the first ever seasonally resolved ...
Evolution of 21st century sea level rise projections
(2018)
The modern era of scientific global‐mean sea level rise (SLR) projections began in the early 1980s. In subsequent decades, understanding of driving processes has improved, and new methodologies have been developed. ...
Lipoprotein subclass profile after progressive energy deficits induced by calorie restriction or exercise
(2018)
Weight loss, induced by chronic energy deficit, improves the blood lipid profile. However, the effects of an acute negative energy balance and the comparative efficacy of diet and exercise are not well-established. We ...
Modulating fundamental resonance in capacitive coupled asymmetric terahertz metamaterials
(2018)
In this work, we experimentally investigate near-field capacitive coupling between a pair of single-gap split ring resonators (SRRs) in a terahertz metamaterial. The unit cell of our design comprises of two coupled SRRs ...
