Article Abstract

The perception of greater impact via new sinks, as opposed to through avoided emissions, has already led some large investors to focus on sink-related projects. This is a flawed perception when applied universally and carries a risk that effective routes to mitigation through avoiding emissions are side-lined. In reality, both emissions avoidance and emissions removal are needed, and both can be a cost-effective means of delivering mitigation.

Inverting the Rhodamine Paradigm: Closed-Form Fluorescence with 280 nm Stokes Shift Drives Plastic Circularity.

Rhodamine derivatives exhibiting inverted open-closed form fluorescence behavior redefines conventional photochemical paradigms while illuminating new structure-property relationships and fascinating application potentials. Herein, we report a donor-acceptor engineering strategy that activates closed form emission in rhodamines, achieving unprecedented Stokes shifts (>280 nm) while overcoming aggregation-caused quenching. The new class of rhodamines with inverted open-close form emission behavior are created through simultaneous substitution of N,N-diethyl groups with indole (donor) and conversion of spiro-lactam to benzene sulfonamide (acceptor).

Background: Iron (Fe) is an essential micronutrient for plant growth, but the conventional DTPA soil analysis method for detecting available iron has notable limitations, requiring advanced instruments and lengthy preparation time. Developing a more affordable, user-friendly, and efficient method for iron detection in soil could greatly improve crop nutrition management. Here, a facile nanoscopic method was developed to quantify available Fe ions in the soil by forming a luminescence quenching complex in chelation with bathophenanthroline disulphonic acid disodium salt (Fe/BPDS complex).

Environmental degradation is a cross-cutting issue that significantly hampers the productivity of the agriculture sector in Pakistan. The objective of this study is to investigate the impact of environmental degradation on agricultural productivity in Pakistan from 1973 to 2021. The study employed the Novel Dynamic Simulated Autoregressive Distributed Lag (NDS-ARDL) estimator as a data analysis technique to gauge the impact of environmental degradation (measured by CO) and other variables, including agricultural credit, quality seeds, fertilizers, and the availability of irrigation water, on agricultural productivity.

Background: To guarantee high-quality patient scans, thorough quality assurance (QA) of SPECT or gamma cameras, including performance, review, and documentation, is essential.

Purpose: We developed a novel Nuclear Medicine Quality Assurance server (NMQA) with an AI deep learning (AIDL) optical character recognition (OCR) system to automate QA data retrieval and review from SPECT and gamma cameras. The system extracts and compares daily and weekly QA data against specifications.
