the reasearch investigates the influences of Cr₂AlC mass fraction and supersonic plasma spraying process on the microstructure and mechanical properties of Cr₂AlC reinforced 410 stainless steel composite coatings This study provides a research basis for the preparation of MAX/metal-based composite coatings by plasma spraying to some extent.

A groundbreaking review article delves into the critical challenges facing electric vehicle (EV) battery technology, offering insights into current research trends and future advancements. The study examines the performance, safety, and environmental impact of various battery types, including lithium-ion and solid-state batteries. It also explores innovative management techniques and highlights the importance of developing cost-effective, sustainable, and safe battery solutions to support the growth of electric mobility.

Researchers from the Single-Cell Center at the Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), together with collaborators, have developed an artificial intelligence-assisted Raman-activated cell sorting (AI-RACS) system. This innovative system has automated the isolation and functional analysis of aluminum-tolerant microorganisms (ATMs) from acidic soil, marking a shift from manual, labor-intensive procedures to high-throughput automated workflows.

In a paper published in MedComm, authors present evidence of convincing biomarkers for detecting colorectal adenomas with a propensity for colorectal cancer development, highlighting the importance of early genetic screening in colorectal cancer prevention. The genetic alterations of colorectal adenomas were compared with CRC patients from the ChangKang Project.

Severe skin injuries can leave patients unable to sweat, posing life-threatening risks like hyperthermia and heatstroke. Now, researchers have pioneered a groundbreaking method using six specific chemicals to reprogram human skin cells into sweat gland cells, or ciSGCs. When transplanted into damaged skin in mice, these cells accelerated healing, improved tissue quality, and restored fully functional sweat glands with neurosensory capabilities. This innovative approach offers a safe, non-genetic solution to regenerate skin's sweating functions, paving the way for personalized treatments and improving life quality for patients with extensive skin injuries.

Recently, a research group led by Prof. HUANG Chaoqun from the Hefei lnstitutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, developed an innovative dual drift tube ion mobility spectrometry (DDT-IMS) technology. This novel approach has successfully facilitated the rapid detection of both positive and negative ions of four toxic metabolites derived from 2,4,6-Trinitrotoluene (TNT), allowing for the detection of residual metabolites in the human body and providing valuable health warnings. 

Recently, a team led by Prof. HUANG Qing from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, successfully used the gas-liquid interface dielectric barrier (DBD) low-temperature plasma (LTP) technology to prepare a series of Cu metal organic framework (MOF) nanozymes.
