TL;DR: A new enhancer element of hepatitis B virus HBV, ENII, located in the X gene coding region and upstream of the C promoter, has been identified and showed high activity in HepG2 cells but not detectable activity in CV-1 cells.

TL;DR: The tunable fluorescence of perylene diimide (PDI) derivatives was achieved by the incorporation of varied isolation groups linked on the PDI core by the result of the efficient inhibition of π-π stacking by the larger isolation groups.

TL;DR: This work reports Schottky junction solar cells by coating carbon nanotube films on individual CdSe nanobelts with open-circuit voltages of 0.5 to 0.6 V and modest power-conversion efficiencies.

TL;DR: MIONs were conjugated with the anti-cancer drug doxorubicin and its efficacy, as a model drug delivery system, was determined using HepG2 cells and the efficiency of the drug-NP conjugates was found to be significantly higher than that of the free drug (DOX).

TL;DR: In this paper, tetraphenylethylene (TPE) units were utilized to construct a new functional polyfluorene (PF) P1, which exhibited the exciting property of aggregation-induced emission enhancement (AIEE), instead of the aggregation-caused quenching of normal PFs, and could probe the explosive with high sensitivity both in the nanoparticles and solid state.
