- Abstract:
- ... Housefly larvae (HL) powder was used to cure wounds centuries ago for its good nutritional and pharmacological values. At present, most of the medical studies are about the crude extracts of HL, while the specific pharmacological material basis is still unclear. We ground third-instar Musca domestica larvae into a powder, degreasing and preparing the protein extract. The protein extract was subjec ...

- Abstract:
- ... 2,3-Diaminomaleonitrile (DAMN) has proved to be a valuable organic π-conjugated molecule having many applications in the area of chemosensors for sensing of ionic and neutral species because of its ability to act as a building block for well-defined molecular architectures and scaffolds for preorganised arrays of functionality. In this article, we discussed the utilization of 2,3-diaminomaleonitri ...

- Abstract:
- ... An efficient method for the synthesis of N-thiomethyl benzimidazoles from o-phenylenediamines, thiophenols, and aldehydes via C–N/C–S bond formation under metal-free conditions is described. A broad range of functional groups attached to the substrates were well tolerated in this reaction system. Stable and low-toxicity paraformaldehyde was used as the carbon source. ...

The performance of PSCs is significantly affected by their morphology and crystallinity induced by compositional ratio, solvent/anti-solvent engineering and post thermal annealing. In this study, the compositional ratio effect of two precursors, PbI₂ and CsBr, on the power conversion eff ...
