Tuberculosis (TB) is a kind of infectious disease transmitted by respiratory tract. It is mainly transmitted by human pathogens Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) through human transmission. It has high incidence rate and high mortality rate. The 2020 Global Tuberculosis Report released by WHO shows that about 1/4 of the world's population is infected with MTB, and 1.41 million people died of TB ...
Recently, Prof. Michael. D. Guiver and Prof. Yan Yin at the State Key Laboratory of Engines, cooperated with Prof. Dario R. Dekel from Technion – Israel Institute of Technology, published their new research, titled Multi-scale study on bifunctional Co/Fe‒N‒C cathode catalyst layers with high active site density for the oxygen reduction reaction, in Applied Catalysis B: Environmental.

With the rapid development of electronic technology, electronic products are widely loved by consumers worldwide. Global consumer electronics sales are showing an explosive growth trend, reaching 103.2 million dollars in 2019. The trend, however, is resulting in the explosive growth of electronic waste that is difficult to recycle and hazardous to the environment and human health. It is reporte...
Prof. Duan Xuexin’s team from Tianjin University designed and developed an intelligent face mask for directly exhaled coronavirus aerosols screening. Relevant studies have been published in an internationally recognized magazine Biosensors and Bioelectronics (Paper link: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.bios.2021.113286).Schematic illustration of the nanoscale sensor designThis intelligent mask int...
Long-persistent luminescence is a unique photophysical phenomenon, which generally exists in inorganic materials. The inorganic long-persistent luminescence materials have been widely applied in the fields of luminescence lighting and biological imaging. Compared with inorganic long-persistent luminescence materials, organic long-persistent luminescence (OLPL) materials pose attractive applicat...
Recently Professor Li Zhen's team from Tianjin University together with Professor Ding Dan's team from Nankai University made a breakthrough in the development and application of high-efficiency and long-life pure organic room-temperature phosphorescent (RTP) materials.The "luminous pearl-like" material they developed can continue to emit light for nearly half an hour after being exposed to lig...
