Article Abstract

Titanium disulfide (TiS) has drawn considerable attention in materials, physics, and chemistry thanks to its potential applications in batteries, supercapatteries and thermoelectric devices. However, the simplified and controlled synthesis of high-quality TiS remains a great challenge. In this study, a straightforward widely accessible approach to the one-step chemical vapor transport (CVT) process is presented. Meanwhile, combining high-pressure (HP) Raman spectroscopy measurements and first-principles calculations, the pressure-induced phase transition of TiS from 3̄1 phase (phase I) to 2/ phase (phase II) at 16.0 GPa and then to 6̄2 phase (phase III) at 32.4 GPa was disclosed. The discovery of HP being within the Weyl semi-metallic phase represents a significant advancement towards understanding the electronic topological states, discovering new physical phenomena, developing new electronic devices, and gaining insight into the properties of elementary particles.

Refractory cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection is a severe complication following umbilical cord blood transplantation (UCBT). Antiviral agents, the standard first-line therapy, are limited by toxicity and resistance without robust T-cell immunity. We evaluated third-party donor (TPD)-derived CMV-specific T cells (CMVSTs) as a treatment option.

Spirulina is considered a superfood due to its chlorophylls. Two new methods for the determination of chlorophylls and β-carotene were developed here, one based on in-tube solid-phase microextraction (IT-SPME) coupled online to nanoliquid chromatography (nanoLC) with diode array detection (DAD), and the other on ultraviolet-visible diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (UV-vis DRS). A protocol to extract the pigments from spirulina was proposed using ethanol (1.

A rapid and specific liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry method with a wide linear range was developed and validated for the simultaneous quantification of Vitamin K1 (VK1) trans- and cis- isomers in human plasma. Bovine serum albumin solution (15%) served as a surrogate matrix for preparing the calibrators to establish the quantitative curves. After liquid-liquid extraction, VK1 trans- and cis- isomers in plasma samples were separated on a ChromCore C30 column (15 cm × 4.

Phase I dose escalation trials in oncology generally aim to find the maximum tolerated dose. However, with the advent of molecular-targeted therapies and antibody drug conjugates, dose-limiting toxicities are less frequently observed, giving rise to the concept of optimal biological dose (OBD), which considers both efficacy and toxicity. The estimand framework presented in the addendum of the ICH E9(R1) guidelines strengthens the dialogue between different stakeholders by bringing in greater clarity in the clinical trial objectives and by providing alignment between the targeted estimand under consideration and the statistical analysis methods.
