A review by researchers at Shanghai Jiao Tong University explores the latest strategies for achieving low-temperature densification of ceria-based barrier layers in solid oxide cells (SOCs). These barrier layers are critical for enhancing the performance and longevity of SOCs by mitigating harmful reactions at high operating temperatures. The paper summarizes state-of-the-art approaches, including the use of nano-powders, sintering aids, and emerging techniques such as cold sintering, offering a comprehensive roadmap for future developments in this field. The review has been published in the Journal of Advanced Ceramics.
Scientists are revolutionizing microproteomics by combining droplet-based microfluidics with mass spectrometry. This approach enhances proteomic profiling in small cell populations, especially single cells, by minimizing sample loss and reagent use, accelerating reactions, and increasing throughput, enabling highly sensitive single-cell proteomic analysis with promising future applications.
The team proposed a new index structure called HATree.
In a new research paper published in MedComm-Oncology, the team of Yongsheng Li/Dairong Li/Huakan Zhao provided an effective and accurate ultra-performance liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (UPLC-MS/MS) tool for the simultaneous detection of aumolertinib, osimertinib, gefitinib and their major metabolites, demonstrating the great bioavailability and tissue distribution characteristics of aumolertinib.
In a ground-breaking new development, researchers have created conductive films by mixing conductive polymers with two-dimensional carbon materials. These films can be used as electrodes to monitor a wide range of body signals when pasted on the surface of human skin, including cardiac, myoelectric, and ocular signals.
