The mineral concentrations in cereals are important for human health, especially for individuals who consume a cereal subsistence diet. A number of elements, such as zinc, are required within the diet, while some elements are toxic to humans, for example arsenic. In this study we carry out genome-wi...

The concentration of arsenic (As) in rice grains has been identified as a risk to human health. The high proportion of inorganic species of As (As(i)) is of particular concern as it is a nonthreshold, class 1 human carcinogen. To be able to breed rice with low grain As, an understanding of genetic v...

• Inorganic arsenic (As(i) ) in rice (Oryza sativa) grains is a possible threat to human health, with risk being strongly linked to total dietary rice consumption and consumed rice As(i) content. This study aimed to identify the range and stability of genetic variation in grain arsenic (As) in rice....

Arsenic (As) accumulation in rice grains is a risk to human health. The mechanism of transfer of As from the shoot into the grain during grain filling is unknown at present. In this study As speciation in the shoot and grains at maturity were examined, and the relationships between phosphorus (P) an...

Lysine succinylation (Ksuc) is a novel protein post-translational modification (PTM) wherein a succinyl group modifies a lysine residue. Ksuc leads to significant chemical and structural changes to the modified protein. Recent studies have shown that Ksuc might play an important role in organism phy...

From murder plots to environmental disasters, arsenic (As) has always been in the headlines. As-contaminated soils, sediments and water supplies are major sources of food chain contamination and thereby endanger human health; this is a global problem, but the situation is nowhere worse than in India...

Abstract The controlled etching of 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (2D‐TMDs) is critical to understanding the growth mechanisms of 2D materials and patterning 2D materials but remains a major comprehensive challenge. Here, a rational strategy to control the terminal atoms of 2D‐TMDs etched holes...

One-pot direct N-formylation of readily available nitroarenes with ammonium formate catalyzed by core-shell structured cobalt nanoparticles has been developed. A broad set of nitroarenes was successfully converted to their corresponding formamides in good to high yields with various functional group...

Tailoring carrier density in atomically thin two-dimensional (2D) semiconductors is challenging because of the inherently limited physical space for incorporating charge dopants. Here, we report that interlayer charge-transfer doping in type III van der Waals heterostructures can be greatly modulate...

Abstract Single crystal metal halide perovskites thin films are considered to be a promising optical, optoelectronic materials with extraordinary performance due to their low defect densities. However, it is still difficult to achieve large‐scale perovskite single‐crystal thin films (SCTFs) with tun...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Aortic dissection is a severe cardiovascular pathology in which an injury of the intimal layer of the aorta allows blood flowing into the aortic wall, forcing the wall layers apart. Such situation presents a high mortality rate and requires an in-depth understanding of the 3...

Tuberculosis (TB), caused by Mycobacterium tuberculosis, remains a formidable threat to global public health. The successful intracellular persistence of M. tuberculosis significantly contributes to the intractability of tuberculosis. Proline-glutamic acid (PE) and proline-proline-glutamic acid (PPE...

Hybrid organic-inorganic molecular ferroelectrics have emerged as promising materials for multifunctional piezoelectric devices. However, they present challenges in practical applications because of their inherent brittleness and poor ductility. Herein, we present a flexible mechano-optical dual-res...
