Extraction of Hexavalent and Trivalent F-Block Elements Using Metal–Organic Framework-303: An Experimental and Theoretical Investigation

Abstract In this study, the adsorption behavior of uranium, U(VI), and neodymium, Nd(III), onto metal–organic framework (MOF)-303, exhibiting a high surface area and tunable functional groups, was systematically investigated. Batch adsorption experiments were performed to evaluat...

Phase II Non-Randomised Trial of Oral Chlorophyllin in Haemorrhagic Cystitis from Radiation Therapy (CLARITY Trial): clinical and quality-of-life outcomes with exploratory proteomics

Abstract Chronic Haemorrhagic Cystitis (cHC) affects 5–15% of patients after pelvic radiotherapy. Sodium-copper-chlorophyllin, a semi-synthetic chlorophyll derivative, has shown promise in preclinical models. The phase II CLARITY trial evaluated oral chlorophyllin for radiation-i...

Sustainable Iron Catalysis for Chemodivergent Oxidation of Lignin‐Based Vanillyl Alcohol: Selective Access to Vanillin and Vanillic Acid

Sustainable development has driven intensive research on the oxidation of lignin‐derived phenolics for fine‐chemical production. Selective catalysis, particularly chemodivergent catalysis, plays a crucial role in synthetic chemistry. In this context, chemoselective oxidation of l...

Tailoring Pluronic® F127-Gelucire® 48/16 mixed micellar nanostructures for efficient solubilization of petroleum-derived hydrocarbon contaminants

Benzene (a representative monocyclic aromatic hydrocarbon, MAH) and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are persistent hydrophobic pollutants frequently present in petroleum-related waste streams, produced waters, and contaminated aquatic environments. The low solubility of a...

Early Survivorship Outcomes in Childhood Cancer Survivors: School Reintegration, Nutritional Status, and Revaccination

BACKGROUND: With improving survival in childhood cancer, the focus is shifting toward early survivorship, a critical period for recovery and transition to long-term care. Data from low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) on outcomes during this phase remain limited. METHODS: We...

Nucleotide Driven Hierarchical Self‐Assembly of Covalent Organic Framework and Gold Nanostar for Molecular Diagnosis of Turner Syndrome

ABSTRACT Turner Syndrome (TS), a rare chromosomal disorder, cause significant phenotypical changes like growth failure and primary ovarian insufficiency. Chromosomal karyotyping, the preferred diagnostic method till date, resulting in delayed diagnosis that precludes early interv...
