Accelerating molecular diffusion by constructing hierarchical Murray zeolites for maximized catalytic activity

Introducing interconnected mesopores and macropores into microporous zeolites with the rationalized pore size at each level is an effective strategy to suppress the diffusion limitations, but remains highly challenging due to the lack of rational design principles.

Multifaceted analysis identifies transitional areas of vegetation as biodiversity hotspots

Climate change and biodiversity loss are interrelated environmental challenges facing the world today, and species living in transitional areas often show adaptive responses to climate change, making such areas crucial for long-term biodiversity conservation. Therefore, it is essential to identify both transitional areas and biodiversity hotspots using multifaceted diversity measures to determine areas of overlap that require special conservation attention.

Spraying compound probiotics improves growth performance, modulates gut microbiota of suckling piglets

One factor that shapes the establishment of early neonatal intestinal microbiota is environmental microbial exposure, and probiotic application has been shown to promote health and growth of piglets, but inferences drawn from different studies are largely inconsistent with rather low reproducibility.
