Enzyme immobilization has attracted continuous attention in the fields of fine chemistry,
biomedicine, and biosensor. The performance of immobilized enzyme largely depends on the …

Diminishing fossil fuel reserves and growing concerns about global warming indicate that
sustainable sources of energy are needed in the near future. For fuels to be useful in the …

Plant lignans occur in many foods, with flaxseed presently recognized as the richest source.
Some plant lignans can be converted by intestinal microbiota to the mammalian lignans, …

The assembly of semiconductor nanoparticles, such as quantum dots (QDs), on matrices has
been extensively studied for their promising optoelectronic applications.[1–7] To enhance …

This paper involves the study of the throughput capacity of hybrid wireless networks. A
hybrid network is formed by placing a sparse network of base stations in an ad hoc network. …

Programmed death 1 (PD‐1) and its ligand (PD‐L1) play pivotal roles in regulating host
immune responses. However, the inhibitory effects of this pathway on the function of cytotoxic …

A novel cell-targeting, near-infrared light-responsive drug delivery platform based on
mesoporous silica-coated gold nanorods that are surface-functionalized with aptamer DNA is …
