The implementation of targeted and nontargeted chemical screening analysis in combination with in vitro and organism-level bioassays is a prerequisite for a more holistic monitoring of water quality in the future. For ...

Coupled cluster (CC) methods are among the most accurate methods in quantum chemistry. However, the standard CC linear response formulation is not gauge invariant, resulting in errors when modelling properties like optical ...

An important function of fungal lectins is to protect their host. Marasmius oreades agglutinin (MOA) is toxic to nematodes and exerts its protective effect through protease activity. Its proteolytic function is associated ...

Fungi and plants do not have an adaptive immune system. Innate immunity serves as their sole defense, often based on carbohydrate recognition by lectins. In a twist of nature, as revealed by Sommer et al. (2018) in this ...

A method for calculating stored magnetic energy in a thin superconducting film based on quantitative magneto-optical imaging is developed. Energy and magnetic moment are determined with these calculations for full hysteresis ...

Corynebacterium glutamicum is widely used for the industrial production of amino acids, nucleotides, and vitamins. The shikimate pathway enzymes DAHP synthase (CgDS, Cg2391) and chorismate mutase (CgCM, Cgl0853) play a key ...

Mo/H‐ZSM‐5 has been studied using a combination of operando X‐ray absorption spectroscopy and High Resolution Powder Diffraction in order to study the evolution of Mo species and their location within the zeolite pores. ...

We present a generalization of the divide–expand–consolidate (DEC) framework for local coupled-cluster calculations to periodic systems and test it at the second-order Møller–Plesset (MP2) level of theory. For simple model ...

East Asia is the strongest global source region for anthropogenic black carbon (BC), the mostimportant light-absorbing aerosol contributing to direct radiative climate forcing. To provide extendedobservational constraints ...

The San Joaquin Valley (SJV) of California experiences high concentrations of particulate matterNH4NO3during episodes of meteorological stagnation in winter. A rich data set of observations related toNH4NO3formation was ...
