Novel high temperature-resistant thermal barrier coatings are urgently required as the stringent operating environment. High temperature property studies of zirconia matrix thermal barrier coatings doped with Cr3+, Mg2+, Si4+, and Mn4+ ions prepared by solid phase reaction method are reported. The results of X-ray diffraction measurements prove the...

Manganese oxide catalysts, including gamma-MnO2, Mn2O3 and Mn3O4, were synthesized by a precipitation method using different precipitants and calcination temperatures. The catalytic oxidations of benzene and 1,2-dichloroethane (1,2-DCE) were then carried out. The effects of the calcination temperature on the catalyst morphology and activity were in...

The concepts underlying hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) pathogenesis have evolved greatly over the last 60 years since the pioneering work of the British pathologist Donald Teare, presenting the autopsy findings of "asymmetric hypertrophy of the heart in young adults". Advances in human genome analysis and cardiac imaging techniques have enriched...
Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) is an attractive membrane material due to its superior chemical resistance, thermal stability and strong hydrophobicity. However, PTFE hollow fiber membranes are challenging to produce by conventional technique due to the high solvent resistance and high melt viscosity of PTFE. In this study, novel PTFE hollow fiber m...
More than 10 million people worldwide are infected with the retrovirus human T-cell lymphotropic virus type 1 (HTLV-1). Infection phenotypes can range from asymptomatic to severe adult T-cell leukemia/lymphoma (ATLL) and HTLV-1-associated myelopathy. HTLV-1, like human immunodeficiency virus type 1 (HIV-1), is a blood-borne pathogen and viral infec...
Resistant tumours are thought to arise from the action of Darwinian selection on genetically heterogenous cancer cell populations. However, simple clonal selection is inadequate to describe the late relapses often characterising luminal breast cancers treated with endocrine therapy (ET), suggesting a more complex interplay between genetic and non-g...
The antimalarial efficacy of the most important vector control interventions—long-lasting insecticidal nets (LLINs) and indoor residual spraying (IRS)—primarily protect against mosquitoes’ biting people when they are in bed and indoors. Mosquito bites taken outside of these times contribute to residual transmission which determines the maximum effe...
