Article Abstract

In this work, two knowledge integration strategies based on multivariate curve resolution alternating least squares (MCR-ALS) were used for the simultaneous analysis of data from two metabolomic platforms. The benefits and the suitability of these integration strategies were demonstrated in a comparative study of the metabolite profiles from yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) samples grown in non-fermentable (acetate) and fermentable (glucose) carbon source. Untargeted metabolomics data acquired by capillary electrophoresis-mass spectrometry (CE-MS) and liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS) were jointly analysed. On the one hand, features obtained by independent MCR-ALS analysis of each dataset were joined to obtain a biological interpretation based on the combined metabolic network visualization. On the other hand, taking advantage of the common spectral mode, a low-level data fusion strategy was proposed merging CE-MS and LC-MS data before the MCR-ALS analysis to extract the most relevant features for further biological interpretation. Then, results obtained by the two presented methods were compared. Overall, the study highlights the ability of MCR-ALS to be used in any of both knowledge integration strategies for untargeted metabolomics. Furthermore, enhanced metabolite identification and differential carbon source response detection were achieved when considering a combination of LC-MS and CE-MS based platforms.

A crack-free and residue-free transfer technique for large-area, atomically-thin 2D transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) such as MoS and WS is critical for their integration into next-generation electronic devices, either as channel materials replacing silicon or as back-end-of-line (BEOL) components in 3D-integrated nano-systems on CMOS platforms. However, cracks are frequently observed during the debonding of TMDCs from their growth substrates, and polymer or metal residues are often left behind after the removal of adhesive support layers wet etching. These issues stem from excessive angular strain accumulated during debonding and the incomplete removal of support layers due to their low solubility.

Although improving the charging cutoff voltage is an effective strategy to increase its capacity, LiCoO ("LCO") undergoes rapid capacity decay due to severe structural and interface degradations at high voltages. Herein, we proposed a multifunctional surface modification by coating nano-sized entropy materials (Li-La-Ti-Zr-Co-O, Nano-MEO). Nano-MEO rivets were constructed on the surface of LCO, which stabilized the fragile surface.

Investigating neuroimaging data to identify brain-based markers of mental illnesses has gained significant attention. Nevertheless, these endeavors encounter challenges arising from a reliance on symptoms and self-report assessments in making an initial diagnosis. The absence of biological data to delineate nosological categories hinders the provision of additional neurobiological insights into these disorders.

Introduction: Differentiating acute tubular necrosis (ATN) from rejection in pediatric kidney transplant (KT) recipients remains challenging and necessitates invasive biopsy. Doppler ultrasound-derived resistive index (RI) is a noninvasive modality to assess graft status, but its diagnostic utility in children is unclear. This study evaluates RI's ability to distinguish ATN and rejection in KT.

With the rapid advancement of communication technologies, issues of electromagnetic pollution and electromagnetic compatibility have become increasingly severe, heightening the demand for high-performance electromagnetic wave absorption materials. Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have flourished in this field owing to their chemical tunability, high porosity, tailored topological structures, and functionality. MOF-derived composites exhibit diverse loss mechanisms and heterogeneous structures, achieving lightweight, broadband, and highly efficient absorption.
