Transparent conductive films (TCFs) are an important component of touch screens, smart windows, liquid crystal displays, organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs), and organic photovoltaic cells. CHENG Huiming and LIU Chang at CAS Institute of Metal Research have...
China’s new mother vessel for the manned deep-sea research submersible Jiaolong will be named Shenhai Yihao (Deep Sea No. 1). Jiaolong, which is undergoing a major maintenance check at the base, will start a global deep-sea scientific exploration mission in...
A team around SONG Wenjuan from Xinjiang Institute of Ecology and Geography, LIN Hui from Zhejiang Academy of Agricultural Sciences and other researchers investigated the occurrence and distribution antibiotics and antibiotic resistance genes in Chinese and global...
The group around SUN Jibin used a ribosomal 5S rRNA gene as a promoter to mediate the expression of sgRNA in a novel and efficient CRISPR/Cas9 system which enabled Cas9 to cut 100% of the Aspergillus niger genome. This allowed to establish an efficient Aspergillus...
Following an initiative oft he Ministry of Agriculture, China attempts to improve rural milk qualit standards. By now, 15 milk enterprises in China have passed the high-quality milk standard tests which are claimed to be more stringent than current standards of the...
The group around ZHAO Guang has engineered E. coli to produce a range of value-added chemicals starting from D-xylose, a sugar which makes up about 25 % of biomass. The researchers introduced the xylose metabolism pathway of Caulobacter crescentus into E. coli,...
During a visit at Optical Valley in Wuhan, president Xi stressed that core technologies that are important to the country should always be fully mastered by the country itself. When visiting FiberHome Telecommunication Technologies Co, a pioneer in the optical...
The excellent bipolar conjugated polymer material can both conduct electrons and holes and thus is an interesting base material for organic FETs. WAN Xiaobo and colleagues at QIBEBT used a large hindered base to successfully synthesize the thiazole isoindigo...
LI Ning and colleagues have developed a biomimetic route to synthesize pyromellitic acid from lignocellulose. Based on this reagent, a three-component cycloaddition reaction catalyzed by proline using formaldehyde, crotonaldehyde or acrylate/fumarate as raw materials...
China has over 3.5 million new cases of cancer every year, and the anti-tumor drug market has exceeded 100 billion yuan, about half of which is imported. In order to meet urgent needs, in recent years, China has introduced a number of policies to encourage and...
