Type 2 diabetes (T2D) accounts for more than 90% of the confirmed cases of diabetes. It has become a common metabolic disease and is expected to affect 380 million worldwide in 2025. At present, clinically used diagnostic tests are mainly based on fasting blood glucose (FPG), oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) and glycosylated hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c). Although these methods have high accuracy, they are all invasive tests based on blood detection.
On the occasion of International Women's Day 2023, we at the Science Island invite you to celebrate women's achievements and contributions.
Bravo! A great news of HFIPS winning the highest prize was heard from the grand final of a National Innovation Competition for Disruptive Technology that was held by Ministry of Science and Technology of the People's Republic of China (MOST) from February 21 to February 24 in Hangzhou, Southeast China.
According to research published in international journal of ACS Nano recently, a team led by Dr. LI Zhaoqian. from Hefei Institutes of Physical Science (HFIPS), Chinese Academy of Science (CAS) found that the addition of 1,4-dioxane (DX) molecules in the electrolyte of aqueous zinc ion battery would lead to the preferred Zn (002) texture growth, which effectively suppressed the Zn dendrite growth and improved the reversibility and cycling stability of batteries.
According to a paper published on Nature Communications recently, an international team observed the superconductivity-insulator transition (SIT) and greatly tuned the AHE in kagome metal CsV3Sb5 flakes by protonic gating.
