The impact of neutralizing antibody and ADCC responses on HIV-1 envelope evolution in early infection by Mielke, Dieter

“…In contrast, while the two V2 nnAbs we tested were narrow and weak, the two nnAbs targeting CD4-induced epitopes (A32 and C11) mediated the broadest (78-100%) and most potent (0.06-0.81 μg/mL) ADCC against this panel. …”

Oxidative dehydrogenation of ethane with carbon dioxide over iron-nickel nano-alloys supported on metal oxide overlayers by Raseale, Shaine

“…Promoters such as Fe-based oxides have been studied to enhance the CO2-activation functionality and stability of the oxides [5]. A Density Functional Theory (DFT) study suggested that bimetallic alloys can have superior activity for CO2-activation compared to their monometallic counterparts [16]. …”
