    Abstract Recently, several types of lead halide perovskites have been actively researched for resistive switching (RS) memory or artificial synaptic devices due to their current-voltage hysteresis along with the feasibility of fabrication, low-temperature processability and superior charge mobility. However, the toxicity and environmental pollution potential of lead halide perovskites severely restrict their large-scale commercial prospects. In the present work, the environmentally friendly and uniform CsSnCl

    Abstract Background/aims: Data concerning differences in demographics/disease severity between the first and second waves of COVID-19 are limited. We aimed to examine prognosis in patients presenting to hospital with COVID-19 amongst different ethnic groups between the first and second waves in the UK.
    Methods: In this retrospective cohort study, we included 1763 patients presenting to a regional hospital centre in Leicester (UK) and compared those in the first (
    Results: Thirty-day mortality risk in second wave patients was approximately half that of first wave patients [adjusted hazard ratio (aHR) 0.55, 95% confidence interval (CI) 0.40-0.75]. In the second wave, Black patients were at higher risk of 30-day mortality than White patients (4.73, 1.56-14.3).
    Conclusion: We found that disporportionately higher risks of death in patients from ethnic minority groups were not equivalent across consecutive waves of the pandemic. This suggests that risk factors for death in those from ethnic minority groups are malleable and potentially reversible. Our findings need urgent investigation in larger studies.

    Abstract Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have gained popularity in recent years as an environmentally benign, inexpensive alternative to organic solvents for diverse applications in chemistry and biology. Among them, alcohol-based DESs serve as useful media in various applications due to their significantly low viscosity as compared to other DESs. Despite their importance as media, little is known how their solvation dynamics change as a function of the hydrocarbon chain length of the alcohol constituent. In order to obtain insights into the chain-length dependence of the solvation dynamics, we have performed two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy on three alcohol-based DESs by systematically varying the hydrocarbon chain length. The results reveal that the solvent dynamics slows down monotonically with an increase in the chain length. This increase in the dynamic timescales also shows a strong correlation with the concomitant increase in the viscosity of DESs. In addition, we have performed molecular dynamics simulations to compare with the experimental results, thereby testing the capacity of simulations to determine the amplitudes and timescales of the structural fluctuations on fast timescales under thermal equilibrium conditions.

    Abstract A novel and reproducible isocratic normal phase liquid chromatographic method was developed for the quantitative determination of 10 stereoisomers of Nebivolol in pharmaceutical bulk drugs and dosage forms. The method was developed using an amylose-based chiral stationary phase, Chiralpak AD-3 (250 × 4.6 mm, 3 μm) column with mobile phase containing n-hexane-ethanol-isopropanol-diethanolamine in the ratio 42:45:13:0.1 (v/v/v/v). The eluted compounds were monitored at 280 nm. Ten stereoisomers of Nebivolol were well separated with resolution >2.0 for all pair of components. The developed method was validated as per International Conference on Harmonization (ICH) guidelines with respect to specificity, linearity (R(2) value >0.999), limit of detection, limit of quantification, accuracy (recovery range 95.8-103.2%), precision (relative standard deviation, RSD, <2.5%) and robustness. Nebivolol sample solutions were found to be stable when characterized over a period of 48 h. Forced degradation studies were also performed to demonstrate the stability-indicating power of the developed HPLC method. The method was found to be rugged and robust.

    Abstract Electrostatic interactions in proteins play a crucial role in determining the structure-function relation in biomolecules. In recent years, fluorescent probes have been extensively employed to interrogate the polarity in biological cavities through dielectric constants or semiempirical polarity scales. A choice of multiple spectroscopic methods, not limited by fluorophores, along with a molecular level description of electrostatics involving solute-solvent interactions, would allow more flexibility to pick and choose the experimental technique to determine the local electrostatics within protein interiors. In this work we report that ultraviolet/visible-absorption, infrared-absorption, or (13)C NMR can be used to calibrate the local electric field in both hydrogen bonded and non-hydrogen bonded protein environments. The local electric field at the binding site of a serum protein has been determined using the absorption wavelength as well as the carbonyl stretching frequency of its natural steroid substrate, testosterone. Excellent agreement is observed in the results obtained from two independent spectroscopic techniques.

    Abstract Background: Leicester was the first city in the UK to have 'local lockdown' measures imposed in response to high community rates of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) transmission. As part of this response, a directive was issued by NHS England to offer testing of asymptomatic healthcare workers (HCWs) at University Hospitals of Leicester NHS Trust (UHL) for SARS-CoV-2 infection.
    Methods: Between 20 July and 14 August 2020, we invited all HCWs at UHL to attend for SARS-CoV-2 testing by nucleic acid amplification (NAAT). We combined the result of this assay with demographic information from the electronic staff record.
    Results: A total of 1150 staff (~8% of the workforce) volunteered. The median age was 46 years (IQR 34-55), 972 (84.5%) were female; 234 (20.4%) were of South Asian and 58 (5.0%) of Black ethnicity; 564 (49.0%) were nurses/healthcare assistants. We found no cases of asymptomatic infection. In comparison, average community test positivity rate in Leicester city was 2.6%.
    Conclusions: Within the context of local lockdowns due to high community transmission rates, voluntary testing of asymptomatic staff has low uptake and low yield and thus its premise and cost-effectiveness should be re-considered.
