Air inside your home may be more polluted than outside due to everyday chemical products
Purdue UniversityPeer-Reviewed Publication
Bringing aromas indoors with the help of chemical products — yes, air fresheners, wax melts, floor cleaners, deodorants and others — rapidly fills the air with nanoscale particles that are small enough to get deep into your lungs, Purdue engineers have found over a series of studies.

Utilizing a nanomedicine to achieve tumor catalysis-enhanced differentiation therapy
Science China PressPeer-Reviewed Publication
In a paper published in National Science Review, an international team of scientists report a coordination nanomedicine (ZnDHT NM) featuring cascade specific Fe3+ capturing and in situ catalysis for achieving tumor catalysis-enhanced differentiation therapy. This nanomedicine can simultaneously treat cancer stem-like cells (CSCs) and bulk tumor cells by interfering with tumor Fe metabolism and redox homeostasis, thereby effectively inhibiting tumor growth, recurrence and metastasis.

How much can riverine N2O emissions be mitigated? How can they be mitigated more effectively?
Science China PressPeer-Reviewed Publication
In a paper published in National Science Review, an international team of scientists discovered a universal N2O emission baseline that could guide the sustainable management of riverine N2O. The discovery of EF-lines emphasized the importance of targeting hotspots and managing baseline emissions sustainably to balance social and environmental benefits. The priority control of organic and NH4+ pollution could rapidly eliminate global riverine N2O hotspots and reduce emissions by half. However, the further restoration of baseline emissions on nitrate removal is a long-term challenge.
