Development of technology for assembled single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) film with the fine resolution is an essential technique for penetrating practical electronic applications. A promising approach is the assembly method by adding a chemical-functionalizing substrate to enhance affinity between the SWCNTs and the substrate. However, the various introduced approaches for solution-based assembly have suffered from low SWCNT deposition selectivity or low SWCNT deposition density. Herein, we demonstrated a facile method for selectively assembling semiconducting SWCNT network on the substrate. The substrate was prepared via a transfer printing of a poly-l-lysine (PLL)-coated poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS) stamp. The thermal-assisted transfer method enabled an ultrafine PLL pattern (≤4 μm) and a high transfer yield (96.5%) by only one-time stamping without a change of the SWCNT-attracting nature. So, semiconducting SWCNTs were deposited on the patterned regions selectively and precisely. The benefit of the patterned semiconducting SWCNTs was lowering leakage current and turn-on voltage in the transfer characteristics by suppressing attachment of unnecessary SWCNT network. They showed excellent electrical performance, a log10(Ion/Ioff) ratio of 4.76, and an average value of linear field-effect mobility of 7.56 cm2/(V s). This research provides a simple but high-quality assembling technique of semiconducting SWCNTs, thereby improving the feasibility of solution-processed SWCNT-TFTs.The formation of thin and uniform capacitive layers for fully interacting with an electrolyte in a supercapacitor is a key challenge to achieve optimal capacitance. Here, we demonstrate a binder-free and flexible supercapacitor with the electrode made of cobalt oxide nanoparticle (CoO NP)-wrapped graphene hollow nanoballs (GHBs). The growth process of Co(OH)2 NPs, which could subsequently be thermally annealed to CoO NPs, was monitored by in situ electrochemical liquid transmission electron microscopy (TEM). In the dynamic growth of Co(OH)2 NPs on a film of GHBs, the lateral formation of fan-shaped clusters of Co(OH)2 NPs spread over the surface of GHBs was observed by in situ TEM. This CoO-GHBs/CC electrode exhibits high specific capacitance (2238 F g-1 at 1 A g-1) and good rate capability (1170 F g-1 at 15 A g-1). Angiogenesis inhibitor The outstanding capacitive performance and good rate capability of the CoO-GHBs/CC electrode were achieved by the synergistic combination of highly pseudocapacitive CoO and electrically conductive GHBs with large surface areas. A solid-state symmetric supercapacitor (SSC), with CoO-GHBs/CCs used for both positive and negative electrodes, exhibits high power density (6000 W kg-1 at 8.2 Wh kg-1), high energy density (16 Wh kg-1 at 800 W kg-1), cycling stability (∼100% capacitance retention after 5000 cycles), and excellent mechanical flexibility at various bending positions. Finally, a serial connection of four SSC devices can efficiently power a red light-emitting diode after being charged for 20 s, demonstrating the practical application of this CoO-GHBs/CC-based SSC device for efficient energy storage.The toxic conformer of the 40- or 42-mer-amyloid β-proteins (Aβ) (Aβ40, Aβ42) with a turn at positions 22 and 23 plays a role in oligomer formation, leading to neurotoxicity as part of the pathogenesis of Alzheimer's disease (AD). A deletion mutant at Glu22 (E22Δ) of Aβ, known as an Osaka mutation, accelerates oligomerization. Although E22Δ-Aβ has not been found to be toxic to cultured neuronal cells and is instead synaptotoxic in long-term potentiation, there is no information on the toxic conformer of E22Δ-Aβ in AD. The site-directed spin labeling study of E22Δ-Aβ40 by continuous wave-electron spin resonance (CW-ESR) spectroscopy in part showed the spatial proximity between positions 10 and 35, which are characteristic of the toxic conformation of Aβ, indicating the existence of a toxic conformer of Aβ with the E22Δ mutation. To obtain structural insight, E22Δ-Aβ42 substitutes with proline (F20P, A21P, D23P, and V24P), in which proline is known as a turn inducer but is a β-sheet breaker, were synthesized. An enzyme immunoassay using the 24B3 antibody recognizing toxic conformer of Aβ was carried out. 24B3 reacted with these substitutes of E22Δ-Aβ42 as well as E22Δ-Aβ42 in a similar manner to WT-Aβ42. Notably, only A21P-E22Δ-Aβ42 exhibited strong neurotoxicity in rat primary neurons after 8 days of incubation, with potent high-order oligomerization compared with E22Δ-Aβ42. These results suggest that E22Δ-Aβ42 could enhance neurotoxicity by generating a toxic oligomer conformation with a turn near position 21.The presence of SARS-CoV-2 in human wastewater together with poor quality of public drinking water supplies in developing countries is of concern. Additionally, the frequent use of contaminated water for bathing, nasal irrigation, swimming, and ablution can be a risk factor in contracting infectious agents such as the brain-eating amoebae and possibly SARS-CoV-2. The use of appropriate tap water filters should be encouraged to remove pathogenic microbes, together with restrained nasal irrigation (not forcing water inside nostrils vigorously) during ritual ablution or bathing to avoid dangerous consequences for populations residing in developing countries.A balanced diet has always been part of a set of preventive measures with cardiovascular diseases (CVD). The aim of the research is to present relevant international data on the role of nutrients in reducing the risk of CVD. Results. This article discusses current data on the effect of consumption of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids, trans fats, cholesterol, dietary fiber, protein, edible salt potassium, magnesium and vitamins on the state of the cardiovascular system and the prevention of CVD. Recommendations on optimal nutrition are given to reduce cardiovascular risks, including those according to the new 3rd edition of the Guide to Cardiovascular Medicine (The ESC Textbook of Cardiovascular Medicine, 3 edn). Conclusion. When managing patients with cardiovascular diseases, it is necessary not only to take into account international nutritional recommendations, but also to focus the patient's attention on how to comply with them.
