It is well established that the drastic ozone loss in the Antarctic stratosphere, commonly known as the ozone hole, is primarily driven by gas-phase and heterogeneous chemical processes. While chemistry transport models generally reproduce observed ozone depletion well, they fail to capture the rapid early-winter decline of hydrogen chloride. [...]

The structural properties of nanoparticles have attracted significant interest due to their potentialapplications in various fields such as catalysis, drug delivery, and optics [1]. Their nanoscaledimensions and large surface area to volume ratio provide unique characteristics, includinghigher reactivity, selectivity, and mechanical strength compared to bulk materials. [...]

Assembled monolayers of colloidal particles are crucial for various applications, including optoelectronics, surface engineering, as well as light harvesting, and catalysis. A common approach for self-assembly is the drying of a colloidal suspension film on a solid substrate using technologies such as printing and coating. [...]

Self-replicating amyloid beta (Aβ) oligomers are considered as one of the major drivers for disrupted synaptic function and plasticity, leading to impaired neuronal viability and progression of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Here, we investigated the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of the anti-oligomeric peptide PRI-002, which was developed to disassemble toxic Aβ oligomers into non-toxic monomers. [...]
