Abstract: Lateral undulation patterns of a flexible spine, including standing waves, traveling waves, and their transitions, enable agile and versatile locomotion in sprawling animals. Inspired by ...

GENTING HIGHLANDS: Every monsoon season brings heavy rainfall to Malaysia and with it a far from new dilemma: heightened risks of landslides all over the country. In Genting Highlands, however, ...

Skoltech researchers have developed a new method to improve the cathode, a key battery component. They proposed doping the cathode material with high-valent tantalum and discovered that adding 0.5 ...

Graphical Abstract: We developed a mechanistic model to simulate purification of a viral-protein complex by cation-exchange chromatography on the “wrong side” of the molecule’s isoelectric point (in a ...

The proposed approach allows precise and independent control of average composition, slope, and curvature of full concentration gradients in high-nickel cathodes, resulting in lithium-ion batteries ...

Hypertonic saline refers to any saline solution with a concentration of sodium chloride (NaCl) higher than physiologic (0.9%). Commonly used preparations include 2%, 3%, 5%, 7%, and 23% NaCl. HTS may ...

Geological disasters like debris flows often profoundly affect land use, causing changes in the surrounding environment and influencing the decisions of local farmers. This study selected 122 debris ...

Ion-exchange chromatography (IEC) is a common method for oligonucleotide purification (1, 2). Separation by IEC often uses strong–anion-exchange (AEX) resins at moderate to strongly basic pH values. A ...

The Denmark Strait cataract is a sloping portion of the seafloor between Iceland and Greenland that funnels cold water from the Nordic Seas into the Irminger Sea, fueling Atlantic Ocean currents. When ...

Hydrophilic interaction chromatography–mass spectrometry (HILIC-MS) offers a flexible and efficient alternative to ion-pairing reversed-phase liquid chromatography (IP-RPLC) for oligonucleotide ...
