Researchers demonstrate efficient atmospheric transport of microplastics over Asia and adjacent oceans

Microplastics (MPs) are small plastic particles <5 mm in size. The rapid accumulation of MPs in the environment has become a severe problem, endangering the health of terrestrial and aquatic biotas. Recent observations at remote ecosystems indicated that MPs might be transported by the atmosphere over long distances. However, to date, the transport mechanisms of […]

Researchers make progress in microstructure evolution in additively manufactured alloys

Dislocation is one of the most important defects in crystal materials. Dislocation density, distribution, and characteristic size could significantly influence the mechanical properties of crystal materials. Metal 3D printing is a new advanced digital manufacturing technology. A typical substructure, dislocation cellular pattern, is prevalent in the alloys prepared by 3D printing technology. Although studies have […]

Researchers make significant progress in next generation of COVID-19 recombinant protein vaccine

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants are continually emerging and becoming the circulating strains in the world. Several highly transmissible variants of concern (VOCs) showed altered pathogenicity and transmission, bringing new waves of infection worldwide. The immune escape of the variants to the currently approved vaccines and the breakthrough infections have become the […]
