CryoQSeg: robust particle segmentation for cryo-EM with Qwen-Image-Edit
CryoQSeg, a novel cryo-EM particle segmentation algorithm harnessing the state-of-the-art Qwen-Image-Edit visual large model fine-tuned on the CryoPPP dataset, demonstrates outstanding particle picking and segmentation performance for cryo-EM imaging data.
Quantification in wavelength-resolved neutron imaging: exemplified using polyethylene to mimic hydrogen in stainless steel
We have developed a comprehensive quantitative methodology for analysing wavelength-resolved neutron transmission spectra and here demonstrate its application to metallic alloys. The approach integrates Monte Carlo simulations, which serve as a digital twin of the experiment, with NCrystal-based least-squares fitting. By using open-source software, this method resolves and quantifies trace element contributions, as demonstrated here for detecting hydrogen-equivalent concentrations below 10 wt p.p.m. in stainless steel.
The overlooked ZIF: reviving [Cu(imidazolato)2] from 1960s literature
This study investigates [Cu(im)2], a zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) originally discovered in the 1960s but widely overlooked, by characterizing its B polymorph with a sodalite topology. By measuring its first gas-adsorption isotherms, we demonstrate that the origins of modern ZIFs lie much earlier than previously recognized.
Variable resolution maps (VRMs) in CCTBX and Phenix: accounting for local resolution in cryoEM
New tools implemented in CCTBX and Phenix allow the calculation of variable resolution maps through a sum of finite-resolution atomic images expressed as analytic functions of all atomic parameters, along with their associated local resolution.
