Abstract Carbonatite originating from the Lillebukt Alkaline Complex at Stjernøy in Northern Norway possesses favorable lime and potassium (K) fertilizer characteristics. However, enrichments of barium (Ba) and strontium (Sr) in carbonatite may cause an undesired uptake by plants when applied to agroecosystems. A fiel…

Halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) and salicylic acid (SA) are natural substances widely used in different fields. HNTs are very promising as nanocarriers because of their biocompatibility, atoxicity, anti-inflammatory properties and capacity to maintain the biological activity of immobilized enzymes. Because of its bacteric…

The efficient and specific delivery of nanoparticles (NPs) to brain tumors is crucial for successful glioma treatment. Heparin‐based polymers decorated with two peptides self‐assemble into multi‐functional NPs that specifically target glioma cells. These NPs re‐self‐assemble to a smaller size in blood, which is benefi…

Surface patterning provides a powerful tool to the diagnosis of platelet adhesion. However, the current methodologies of constructing platelet-patterned surfaces require laborious and complicated steps. Herein, a novel and simple platelet-repellent surface was reported by metal (Fe 3+ ions)–polyphenol (tannic acid, TA…

Temperature-dependent and ultrafast transient absorption measurements were carried out to probe the optical properties and exciton relaxation dynamics in metal-doped (Pt and Hg) Au 25 clusters. Optical absorption and electrochemistry results have shown that the Pt-doped cluster has a distinctly different HOMO–LUMO gap…
