Article reporting the results of blood cell characterization using label-free fluorescence imaging techniques and flow-cytometry. Autofluorescence parameters of different cell types – white blood cells, red blood cells, erythrophagocytic cells – are assessed and analyzed in terms of molecular heterogeneity and possibilities of differentiation between different cell types in vitro and in vivo.

Article studying a heavy-heavy-light three-body system confined to one space dimension.

Article describes a study exploring the possibility of fueling a magnetically confined plasma using particle sources located inside of the plasma.

Article analyzing transposon insertion mutants resulting in independent loss of function of five enzymes of the monolignol pathway, as well as one double mutant, in the model legume Medicago truncatula, to address whether a common mechanism linking lignin modification with perturbations in plant growth and development exists.

Article introducing the quasiharmonic approximation three-phonon method to calculate the thermodynamic properties of both nonmetallic and metallic compounds. This study demonstrates that QHA3P is an ideal framework for the high-throughput prediction of finite-temperature material properties, combining the accuracy of QHA with the computational efficiency of SC-QHA.

Article details the reaction of Ru3(CO)12 with 2-vinylpyrazine, the aim of which was to synthesize clusters in which all of the donor atoms of the 2-vinylpyrazine ligand participate in bonding to the cluster core.

This article investigates maleic anhydride (C₂H₂(CO)₂O, Furan-2,5-dione) that is emitted into or formed in the atmosphere during bio-mass burning events as well as being a photochemical degradation product of some aromatic volatile organic compounds. The photochemical fate of maleic anhydride, however, is presently not well enough characterized to enable modeling of its impact on the environment and human health. In this study, the room temperature UV and infrared absorption spectra of maleic anhydride were measured and quantified using several complementary calibration methods.

Article discussing further analyses of the recent report (by Sandeepa et al.) on the solubility of benzoic acid in six monosolvents (i.e. tributyl phosphate, diacetone alcohol, methyl-n-propyl ketone, methyl acetate, amyl acetate, and isooctane) and five binary systems (i.e. ethanol + hexane, isopropyl alcohol + hexane and chloroform + hexane, acetone + hexane, and acetone + water) along with some numerical analyses. The reported calculations have been reanalyzed based on combined nearly ideal binary solvent/Redlich-Kister, the modified Wilson model, general single model, Jouyban–Acree model and Jouyban–Acree–van’t Hoff model. The investigated models provide good estimation of the solubility behavior of benzoic acid in the binary solvent mixtures at various temperatures.

Article describes SERCA activity in the pectoralis muscle and heart ventricle of red-winged blackbird (Agelaius phoeniceus) nestlings, fledglings and adults. Additionally, using a diet manipulation, the authors tested the hypothesis that muscle SERCA activity is affected by dietary fatty acid composition, as has been shown in some previous studies.

Article presenting the idea of lattice quantum magnetometry, i.e., quantum sensing of magnetic fields by a charged (spinless) particle placed on a finite two-dimensional lattice.

Article describes study which tested if targeted and persistent changes in steady-state protein expression underlie this hypoxic heart phenotype, using isobaric tags for relative and absolute quantitation (iTRAQ) proteomics.

Article presents a general route to hybrid Quantum Mechanics/Molecular Mechanics (QM/MM) Molecular Dynamics for complex systems using a polarizable embedding.

Article describes study which tested the hypothesis that developmental hypoxia alters cardiomyocyte physiology in a manner that protects the heart from hypoxic stress.

Article demonstrating in situ deposition of BN by sequential BCl₃/NH₃ reactions at 600 K on two different oxidized boron substrates: (a) B₂O₃ deposited using BCl₃/H₂O ALD on Si at 300 K (“B₂O₃/Si”) and (b) a boron-silicon oxide formed by sequential BCl₃/O₂ reactions at 650 K on SiO₂ followed by annealing to 1000 K (“B-Si-oxide”). The data presented demonstrates that ultrathin BN films deposited by BCl₃/NH₃ ALD are promising candidates for passivation of boron oxide used in shallow doping applications.

Author Manuscript version of an article reporting interactions of anionic guests with a tritopic peripherally functionalized conjugated calix[4]pyrrole host (1) prepared using a regioselective synthetic method.

Article describes the main surface activation and pretreatment techniques for substrates such as titanium and its alloys, stainless steel, magnesium alloys, and CoCrMo alloys.

Article describes study in which mRNA expression of iGluR was quantified in two sensory neuron clusters of two cohorts of Aplysia californica (Aplysia) at both sexual maturity (~8 months) and advanced age (~12 months) in order to examine if changes in ionotropic L-Glu receptor (iGluR) transcription underlie reduced physiology8

This article describes a procedure for computing the electrostatic equilibria of non-neutral plasmas in a Penning trap with a nonuniform magnetic field by solving Poisson's equation using an iterative method. Plasma equilibria in a model Penning trap with high and low field regions are computed. The plasma is assumed to follow the Boltzmann density distribution along magnetic field lines.

Article describes study demonstrating that solute hydrogen bond acidity, solute hydrogen bond basicity and solute volume all lower the diffusion constants of ions and nonelectrolytes in the various solvents studied.

Article studying chemical and electronic properties of ion beam synthesized Fe-Si binary structures using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy binding energy analysis.

Article proposes the “coordination corrected enthalpies” method (CCE), based on the number of nearest neighbor cation–anion bonds, and also capable of correcting relative stability of polymorphs.

This article shows that both Cys-EC and 4β-(S-cysteinyl)-catechin (Cys-C) are present in grapevine. The data from this study advance knowledge of PA building blocks and LAR function and provide targets for grapevine breeding to alter PA composition.

Article discusses the identification of the brain-available phenol glucuronide metabolite deoxyrhapontigenin-3-O-β-d-glucuronide (5) in perfused rat brains following subacute treatment with the stilbene resveratrol.

This article tests if lignin content can be further reduced by combining genetic mutations in C1 metabolism and the lignin biosynthetic pathway by generating and functionally characterizing fpgs1ccoaomt1 double mutants. The observations demonstrate that additional reduction in lignin content and improved sugar release can be achieved by simultaneous downregulation of a gene in the C1 (FPGS1) and lignin biosynthetic (CCOAOMT) pathways.
