2D Bismuth oxycarbonate (2D BOC) nanosheets have a unique layered structure with many applications, including capture and reduction of carbon dioxide. Processing powdered elemental bismuth in water under ambient air conditions using a vortex fluidic device (VFD) results in the formation of 2D BOC without the need of surfactants or other excipients. The induced high shear mechanical energy in the form of micron/submicron topological typhoon like spinning top (ST) fluid flow drives the conversion, which we propose initially melts the metal particles which are spontaneously oxidised at the liquid-quartz tube interface to form 2D bismuth oxide (BiO).

Background: Interpretation of motor imagery (MI) in brain-computer interface (BCI) applications is largely driven by the use of electroencephalography (EEG) signals. However, precise classification in stroke patients remains challenging due to variability, non-stationarity, and abnormal EEG patterns.
New Methods: To address these challenges, an integrated architecture is proposed, combining multi-domain feature extraction with evolutionary optimization for enhanced EEG-based MI classification.

Microfluidic hydrodynamic focusing (HF) has emerged as a powerful platform for the controlled synthesis of lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) and liposomes, offering superior precision, reproducibility, and scalability compared to traditional batch methods. However, the impact of HF inlet configuration and channel geometry on nanoparticle formation remains poorly understood. In this study, we present a comprehensive experimental and computational analysis comparing 2-inlet (2-way) and 4-inlet (4-way) HF designs across various sheath inlet angles (45°, 90°, 135°) and cross-sectional geometries (square vs.

At moderate protein concentrations (10, 20 mg/mL) and a high temperature (80 °C), meat protein (MP) self-assembled into weak gels and then intriguingly collapsed into microgels through continuous heating and annealing cooling, resulting in a sol state with exposed hydrophobic groups and disulfide bonds. The different prepared microgel groups were labeled as MP and MP, respectively. Compared with the control group (Con: 7.

Hard carbon has emerged as the most widely studied and commercialized anode material for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). However, improving the charge transfer kinetics within the plateau potential range of the hard carbon anode is crucial for the development of fast-charging SIBs. In this study, we prepared a novel composite material, ZAPA-1300, by uniformly mixing starch, asphalt, and zinc oxide (ZnO), followed by a two-step treatment process.
