Article asserts that ammonia (NH3) is a promising carbon-free energy carrier. The authors used experimental characterization and modeling to study the participation of alkali and sulfur species in ammonia conversion in a post-flame environment, focusing on the characteristics of NO emissions and NH3 slip.

Article describing pennycress genome annotation improvements using a combination of long- and short-read transcriptome data obtained from RNA derived from embryos of 22 accessions, in addition to public genome and gene expression information.

Article describes post-flame sulfation of gaseous sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and sodium chloride (NaCl) was investigated with optical in situ measurements at 850 to 1475°C. The combined experimental data, chemical equilibrium calculations and kinetic modeling of the present study support that sulfation of alkali species can occur in the gas phase through homogeneous reactions.

Article expresses how the cadmium-contaminated water body is a worldwide concern for the environment and toxic to human beings and the removal of cadmium ions from drinking and groundwater sustainably and cost-effectively is important. The results showed that synthesized CS-KAC-Ag was a biocompatible and versatile porous filtering material for the decontamination of different toxic metal ions.

Article discusses how the fascinating, functional properties and applications of MOF-derived hollow porous materials primarily lie in their chemical composition, hollow character, and unique porous structure. The authors discuss a comprehensive overview of the synthetic strategies and emerging applications of hollow porous materials derived from MOF-based templates and/or precursors.

Article experimentally quantifies the metabolic cost of transport in Mediterranean spur-thighed tortoises walking on a treadmill while also quantifying the kinematics of their movement. Results found that tortoises move more efficiently than predicted and presents the first data demonstrating a curvilinear cost of transport over their speed range. The authors conclude that tortoises have an optimum speed at which they move to minimise their metabolic cost of locomotion.

Article presents research that explores proanthocyanidin (PA) biosynthesis routes in plants. The data suggests that different species have evolved different routes for PA biosynthesis.

Authors of the article systematically investigated how the membrane charge populations affect permselectivity by decoupling their effects from the impact of the pore structure using a multivariate strategy for constructing covalent-organic-framework membranes. The complex interplay between pore-pore interactions in response to charge variations for ion transport across the upscaled nanoporous membranes helps explain the obtained results. This study has far-reaching implications for the rational design of ionic membranes to augment energy extraction rather than intuitively focusing on achieving high densities.

Article states that despite remarkable advances in cancer research, cancer remains one of the leading causes of death worldwide. The author's proposed framework for cancer diagnostics detects cancers and their tissues of origin using a unified model of cancers encompassing 33 cancers represented in The Cancer Genome Atlas. Their model exploits the learned features of different cancers reflected in the respective dysregulated epigenomes, holding a great promise in early cancer detection.
