Dual Electrophilic–Nucleophilic Behavior of M(II) Centers (M = Co, Ni, Cu) in M(acac)2 Complexes: Insights into Intermolecular Noncovalent Interactions

Abstract Quantum-chemical calculations were performed to elucidate the electrophilic and nucleophilic properties of first-row transition-metal centers in M(acac)2 (M = Co2+, Ni2+, Cu2+; Hacac = acetylacetone), as well as the nature of the resultant M···N/I interactions with pyraz...

Fast food consumption and its association with mental distress among Tibetan adolescents: a cross-sectional study

Although fast food consumption is linked to poor mental health among adolescents, evidence remains inconsistent overall and scarce among ethnic minorities, especially among Tibetan adolescents, who live in distinct sociocultural and environmental contexts and are experiencing rap...

Reassessing global trade and welfare impacts of EU’s carbon border adjustment mechanism in developing countries: a structural quantitative model

The European Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) has been agreed on since 2023, while the discussions, especially in developing members that have higher carbon intensity, are still underway. Here, we used a structural quantitative trade model to analyze how the EU CBAM affe...

When do consumers trust AI? The moderating roles of service orientation and social class in human-AI service robot collaboration

As artificial intelligence (AI) becomes increasingly autonomous, understanding how human–robot collaboration affects consumer trust has emerged as a critical challenge in human–AI interaction research. Drawing on service orientation theory and social class theory, this research i...

Unveiling the determinants and formation mechanisms of the intention-behavior gap among private enterprises participating in new infrastructure construction

Purpose A disconnect between the intention to participate and the actual engagement among private enterprises is impeding the effective promotion of new infrastructure construction (NIC). To address this critical barrier, this study aims to identify the determinants of this inten...

Enhancing adult lifelong learning through data fusion algorithms and quality assurance

This study presents a Data Fusion + Random Forest (RF) framework to predict adult learners’ educational outcomes, such as dropout risk and course completion. Adult lifelong learning is crucial for personal and professional growth, but challenges like high dropout rates and low en...

Electronic Nose‐Based Methanol Feedback Precision Control Strategy for High‐Yield Alkaline Phosphatase Fermentation by Hansenula polymorpha

ABSTRACT Alkaline phosphatase (ALP), an important industrial enzyme, has a wide range of applications in animal food, biotechnology, and environment. Methanol, as a key inducer in the fermentation process of Hansenula polymorpha , significantly affects ALP expression. This study...
