Hydrothermal Production of Multifunctional Zinc Ferrite Nanoparticles as Fertilizer, Supercapacitor Electrode, and NPK Sensor

Academic Background With the continuous growth of the global population, the world population is expected to reach 10 billion by 2050, particularly in developing countries, where the demand for food will significantly increase. As the most populous country in the world, India needs to increase its crop production by 50% to meet the demand for food,...

A Novel Formulation of Docetaxel-Containing Micelle Surface Modified with Metronidazole to Target Tumor Hypoxia

Background Introduction Cancer is one of the leading causes of death globally, and despite significant progress in treatment, the complexity of tumors, particularly tumor hypoxia, remains a major obstacle to successful therapy. Hypoxic regions are prevalent in solid tumors, where oxygen concentrations are significantly lower than in normal tissues ...

Biomass-Derived Graphene and Metal–Organic Frameworks for Sustainable Sensing Applications

With the increasing global emphasis on sustainable development and environmental protection, biomass, as a natural and abundant carbon source, has gradually become a research hotspot. Biomass includes plant leaves, grasses, rice husks, coffee grounds, agricultural waste, food production waste, and municipal waste, characterized by its renewability,...

Tissue Engineered Scaffolds Combined with Exercise in the Treatment of Volumetric Muscle Loss in Rat Model

Academic Background Volumetric Muscle Loss (VML) is a severe muscle injury typically caused by trauma, ischemia, or tumor excision. VML leads to irreversible loss of muscle fibers, resulting in fibrosis, deformity, and long-term dysfunction. Unlike ordinary muscle injuries, VML has very limited regenerative capacity because the extent of damage exc...

Sugarcane Wax-Based Solid Lipid Nanoparticles as an Atorvastatin Carrier: Characterization and In Vivo Evaluation of Antihyperlipidemic Activity in Rats

Academic Background Cardiovascular diseases, particularly atherosclerosis, are one of the leading causes of death globally. Elevated cholesterol levels are a major risk factor for atherosclerosis. Atorvastatin (ATV) is a widely used cholesterol-lowering drug, but its oral bioavailability is low, primarily due to first-pass metabolism. To improve th...

Effectiveness of Chitosan Nanoparticles as a Radioprotective Agent Against Gamma-Induced Changes in the Histology and Biochemistry of Parotid Glands

Cancer is one of the leading causes of death worldwide. Radiotherapy, as a crucial method for cancer treatment, effectively kills cancer cells but also damages normal tissues, especially sensitive tissues such as salivary glands. The oxidative stress and inflammatory reactions induced by radiotherapy are the primary causes of salivary gland dysfunc...

A Sparse Bayesian Committee Machine Potential for Oxygen-Containing Organic Compounds

Academic Background In the fields of materials science and chemistry, understanding the properties of materials at the atomic level is crucial. However, traditional methods for calculating interatomic potentials, such as Density Functional Theory (DFT), while highly accurate, are computationally expensive and difficult to apply to large-scale syste...
