Multiscale Computational Insights into Bergenin Encapsulation by Modified γ-Cyclodextrins: Conformational and Energetic Investigations via QM/MM and Molecular Dynamics

Despite bergenin (BER) having significant therapeutic benefits, its medicinal potential is hindered by its low natural abundance and poor aqueous solubility. Through host-guest complexation with cyclodextrins (CDs), this work offers an economical molecular approach to increase th...

Quantitative Rigidity‐Emission Correlation Enabled by Dynamic Nanocluster‐Protamine Condensates

ABSTRACT Restricting molecular motions within metal nanocluster (NC) assemblies provides the structural rigidity necessary to suppress non‐radiative decay and trigger robust aggregation‐induced emission (AIE). Despite this long‐standing paradigm, the relationship between rigidity...

Skeletal Modification of Tryptophan Using Cyclic Diaryliodonium Salts via Palladium-Catalyzed Cascade π-Extended Annulative Dual C2–H/N–H Arylation

Abstract We have demonstrated an efficient Pd-catalyzed annulative dual C2–H/N–H arylation reaction involving modification of the tryptophan indole skeleton to phenanthridinyl indole. This is an operationally simple and ligand-free strategy that was extended to biologically impor...

Aqueous zinc-ion batteries have attracted tremendous research interest for large-scale energy storage applications due to their resource abundance, high theoretical/volumetric capacity, and environmental friendliness. However, their development is hindered by sluggish Zn 2+ kinet...

Angular Dependence of Magnetoresistance with Twofold and Fourfold Symmetries and a Large Topological Hall Effect in a Ferrimagnetic Mn2SbBe0.1 Single Crystal

Abstract Ferrimagnetic intermetallics with inequivalent magnetic sublattices host rich magneto-transport properties arising from competing interactions and anisotropy. We report on a Mn2SbBe0.1 single crystal, where interstitial Be tunes the anisotropic response under strong in-p...

Green chemo-mechanical extraction of structurally functional mesoporous nanocellulose platform from sugarcane bagasse: a versatile matrix for multifunctional material design

Sugarcane bagasse is an abundant agro-industrial residue with considerable potential for the development of sustainable, bio-based functional materials. In the present study, bagasse-derived nanocellulose is examined not only as a reinforcing phase but also as a fibrillar host ma...

Allium beesianum (Amaryllidaceae): A New Record for the Flora of India

ABSTRACT Allium beesianum W.W.Sm. (Amaryllidaceae), a native of Southern China has been collected from Tawang district of Arunachal, India in 2025 is reported here as an addition to the Flora of India. Morphological description, distribution map and a photo plate were provided he...

Electropolymerization Turns an Inactive Molecular Complex into a Water Oxidation Catalyst

Abstract Understanding how structure gives rise to function lies at the heart of catalysis. Yet one of the most fundamental open questions is whether catalytic activity can emerge purely from connectivity, without altering the composition or coordination of the molecular building...

Environmental enrichment affects growth and behaviour differently in head-started critically endangered freshwater turtles

Abstract Freshwater chelonians face severe extinction risk, and head-starting programs increasingly rely on captive rearing to offset poor recruitment. However, evaluating success by growth and release numbers overlooks welfare and post-release competence. We assessed head-starte...

Orbital Coupling Engineering through P-Block Metal Doping in NiFe Layered Double Hydroxides for Enhanced Anion-Exchange Membrane Water Electrolysis

Abstract The oxygen evolution reaction (OER) remains a major kinetic bottleneck in anodic water splitting because of sluggish adsorption and desorption kinetics of O-containing intermediates. Optimizing the adsorption strength of various O-containing intermediates in accordance w...

CoRSEER: the calculator of rock surface exposure age and erosion rates for luminescence rock surface exposure dating

Luminescence rock surface exposure dating (LRSED) estimates the duration of rock surface exposure and the rate of erosion by analysing changes in luminescence with depth below the surface. The wider use of this method has been slowed by limitations in mathematical analysis, such...

An Innovative Approach for Estimating Coseismic Surface Uplifts Using Ionospheric Observations From Remote GNSS Stations: First Application for the 2025 Myanmar Earthquake

Abstract The M w 7.7 Myanmar earthquake on 28 March 2025 ruptured ∼480 km of the Sagaing Fault. Its fault slip distribution remains poorly constrained by three‐dimensional surface displacement data due to sparse GNSS‐coverage near the fault. Satellite‐based synthetic aperture rad...
