Ambient air is a core medium for monitoring of persistent organic pollutants (POPs) under the Stockholm Convention and is used in studies of global transports of POPs and their atmospheric sources and source regions. Still, ...

Most environmental monitoring programs on organic contaminants, such as persistent organic pollutants (POPs), have a restricted explicit geographical scope, targeting a specific country or region. Such programs often aim ...

nm-Range forces acting between calcite surfaces in water affect macroscopic properties of carbonate rocks and calcite-based granular materials and are significantly influenced by calcite surface recrystallization. We suggest ...

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 ...

Targeted cancer immunotherapy offers increased efficacy concomitantly with reduced side effects. One antibody with promising clinical potential is 14F7, which specifically recognises the NeuGc GM3 ganglioside. This antigen ...

In order to adopt water electrolyzers as a main hydrogen production system, it is critical to develop inexpensive and earth-abundant catalysts. Currently, both half-reactions in water splitting depend heavily on noble metal ...

We describe the mechanism of self-aggregation of α-tocopherol transfer protein into a spherical nanocage employing Monte Carlo simulations. The protein is modeled by a patchy coarse-grained representation, where the ...

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. ...

The crystal structure of L-valyl-L-leucine aceto­nitrile solvate presented here adds to 24 previously reported structures of dipeptides constructed from the five nonpolar amino acids L-alanine, L-valine, L-isoleucine, ...
