The study explored the chemical, antimicrobial, and antioxidant properties of essential oils from garlic (GEO), parsley (PEO), and thyme (TEO) using GC-MS, ATR-FTIR, and DSC techniques, and examined the synergistic effects of their combination on antioxidant and antimicrobial properties. The oils' antimicrobial effectiveness against pathogens was also tested. GC-MS analysis revealed diverse chemical profiles. The garlic, thyme, and parsley mixture (GTP) showed the highest phenol content (533.05 milligrams of gallic acid equivalent per 100 grams of dry weight sample), flavonoids (284.16 milligrams of quercetin equivalent per 100 grams of dry weight sample), and antioxidant activity (94.14% DPPH scavenging). The oils demonstrated significant antimicrobial effects, particularly against gram-negative bacteria and molds, with the GTP mixture being highly effective against Aspergillus niger . The bioactive compounds and antimicrobial effects were ranked as GTP > GT > GP > TP > GEO > TEO > PEO. These findings suggest that combining these EOs enhances their bioactivity, positioning them as natural preservatives for food safety and shelf-life extension.

Molybdenum nitride, because of the strong metal-support interaction between nitrogen and the metal, exhibits activity superior to that of bare metals, demonstrating its effectiveness as a co-catalyst to address the slow kinetics of the iron reduction in the Fenton process. Here, we introduced Mo 2 N as a co-catalyst to accelerate the cycles of Fe 3+ /Fe 2+ within a Fenton-like system consisting of Fe 3+ and H 2 O 2 , thereby enhancing the activation of hydrogen peroxide to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS). The system demonstrates excellent recyclability and stability. XPS spectroscopic analyses reveal that Mo(III) and Mo(IV) species on the Mo 2 N surface are capable of reducing free Fe(III), while FTIR analyses show nitrogen (N) and nitrogen oxide (NO x ) facilitate the adsorption and coordination of iron. Both homogeneous and heterogeneous reduced iron species are active in the activation of H 2 O 2 . EPR spectroscopy further confirms that the primary ROS generated are hydroxyl radicals (·OH) and superoxide anions (·O 2 − ). This study not only underscores the feasibility of Mo 2 N-based Fenton-like systems but also provides a new strategy for promoting the practical application of Fenton chemistry. Graphical

Mineralization of hydroxyapatite mineralized by acidic metal oxides has attracted substantial research interest in the research and development of orthopedic substitutes. In this study, Polycaprolactone (PCL) nanofibers with nano-tantalum oxide (Ta 2 O 5 ) were successfully fabricated through electrospinning. The scaffold simulates the mineralization process of hydroxyapatite in simulated body fluid. However, in the process of mineralization, there is a chemical reaction between hydrophobic scaffolds and acid oxides, which is believed to have a significant impact on the biological effects of the scaffolds. The results of SEM, EDS, XRD, Mapping, FTIR, GPC, 13 CNMR, and 1 HNMR explain the principle of hydroxyapatite mineralization by Ta 2 O 5 and the reason why the composite scaffold is blurred, that is, the carbonyl carbon of PCL attacked by the surface hydroxyl groups of Ta 2 O 5 to catalyze its ring-opening polymerization to synthesize PCL/Ta 2 O 5 nanocomposites in one step. In order to accurately explore the effect of this reaction on the metabolism of biological macromolecules in the future, we provide a detailed route of Ag Nanoparticles -Dimercaptosuccinic acid@Transcription activator (AgNPs-DMSA@TAT) probe synthesis. The results provide a reference for the sedimentation of hydroxyapatite induced by acid oxides and its effect on traditional electrospun fiber scaffolds.

In this study, we investigated the effects of polymers on the pharmaceutical cocrystal formation process. Ibuprofen (IBU) was selected as the active pharmaceutical ingredient (API), nicotinamide (NIC) and saccharin (SAC) as the cocrystal coformer (CCF), ethanol/water as the solvent, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and poly (ethylene glycol) (PEG) as the representative polymers. We prepared IBU-NIC and IBU-SAC cocrystals in ethanol-water cosolvent in the absence or presence of polymers. Cocrystal screening products were characterized by FTIR, DSC, PXRD, and HPLC. The results showed that the mixture of IBU and IBU-NIC cocrystal can be prepared in ethanol-water cosolvent without polymers. The addition of PVP facilitates the formation of pure IBU-NIC cocrystal; however, no cocrystal was formed in PEG solutions. SAC could not cocrystallize with IBU in the ethanol-water solvent in the absence of polymers. Neither PVP nor PEG could facilitate the formation of the IBU-SAC cocrystal.

In this work, a simple method for the highly selective preparation of valuable dinitronaphthalene from 1-nitronaphthalene employing NO 2 as a nitrating agent has been developed. The results demonstrated that HY zeolite as an eco-friendly and stable catalyst exhibits good catalytic performances. The total selectivity to valuable dinitronaphthalene compounds including 1,5-, 1,4-, and 1,3-dinitronaphthalene can reach 87.6 % in our present nitration reaction. Meanwhile, the physico-chemical properties of catalysts were characterized by XRD, FTIR, TG/DTG, BET, and NH 3 -TPD, and the probable nitration reaction mechanism was also suggested in this paper. The present nitration process seems to be a mild, eco-friendly, and economical route for the preparation of valuable dinitronaphthalene compounds.

Due to its adaptable performance and industrial manufacturing, sulfonated poly ether ether ketone (SPEEK) is suitable for proton exchange membrane (PEM). Organica-inorganic composite membrane was suggested as a way to further enhance its performance. By combining different weights of titanium (IV) oxide acetylacetonate (TiOacac) with polyacrylonitrile (PAN), a PAN/TiOacac solution was created that could then be used to create PAN/TiOacac nanofiber . After the nanofiber has been calcined, TNT-10, TNT-30, and TNT-50 can be produced. Following the incorporation of these three types of TNT into the SPEEK matrix, the solution-casting approach allowed for the simple development of the TNT/SPEEK membrane. The composite membrane of 1%TNT-10/SPEEK and 1%TNT-50/SPEEK was discontinuous and inefficient due to the loose and abundant titanium dioxide in TNT-10 and TNT-50, respectively. While it was compact for TNT-30 with premium performance, so 1%TNT-30/SPEEK would form continuous proton transport channels in PEM and have an interaction between TNT-30 and SPEEK matrix, which was confirmed by FTIR , TEM and XPS. To create a high-performance PEM, it is necessary to develop a continuous proton transport channel.

A designed ligand-accelerated Cu(I)-catalyzed cycloaddition (CuAAC) reaction was monitored for the first time by real time infrared analysis technique based on ATR-FTIR principles. Principal components analysis (PCA) and two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (2Dcos) results showed that the consumption of alkyne and azide took place successively followed by the formation of the product 1,2,3-triazole, and a 1:1 complex of two reactants would be formed in the reaction process. The rate-determining step of the CuAAC reaction was also experimentally confirmed for the first time to be the transition of azide−alkyne 1:1 complex to the preproduct 1,2,3-triazole. Our results are in good conformity with the current catalytic mechanism proposed by Sharpless et al. according to DFT calculation results.

Silk fibroin (SF) derived composites play an important role in regenerative medicine and tissue engineering fields. In this study, through a simple, yet green and sustainable approach, ZIF-8@SF composite was firstly prepared, and its morphological, structural, thermal and mechanical properties were systematically studied. After ZIF-8 feeding, no marked side effect for silkworms was found. The as-prepared composite had 3% of ZIF-8, and a maximum strain of 28%, which was 17% higher than that of the natural SF. Results from SEM, FTIR, XRD and TGA showed that the essential characteristics of SF were well inherited with ZIF-8 addition, suggesting that ZIF-8@SF had a great potential of being used in bio-relevant fields. Noticeably, this study is the first time to develop ZIF-8@SF composite, and the in vivo feeding approach is very promising for commercial production.

Scutellariae Radix (SR) is a common herb in Asia and Europe. In the clinical practice of traditional Chinese medicine, the raw SR is often stir-baked to partly scorch to reduce the side effects (stomach discomfort, diarrhea, etc.) but enhance some desired effects (such as the hemostatic activity). The scorching degree is crucial to assure the safety and efficacy of the scorched SR. Under-scorching is insufficient to adapt the adverse and favorable activities, while over-scorching can destroy all activities. Up to now, the scorching degree of SR is still determined by the manual observation of colors. Since the visual judgement is vulnerable to personal knowledge and experience, it is difficult to control the optimization and consistence of the scorching degree of SR. This research was designed to explore the potential indicators that can exactly reflect the scorching degree of SR and be measured objectively and quantitatively. A total of 15 morphological and chemical properties as well as Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy were included to profile the variations of the SR slices that were stir-baked at different temperatures for different times. According to the principal component analysis and statistical tests, 10 properties showed close relationships with the scorching degree of SR. As the increase of the heating time at the same heating temperature, the yield, L*, a*, b*, sucrose, baicalin and wogonoside decreased continuously and showed the monotone variation patterns. Meanwhile, 5-HMF, baicalein and wogonin showed the inflection variation patterns, which means these properties increased in the earlier stage but decreased in the later stage during the scorching process. FTIR spectra also revealed the variations of flavonoids and carbohydrates. The scorching degree of SR can be determined by the intuitive observation of FTIR spectral peaks at 1738 cm −1 , 1705 cm −1 , 1611 cm −1 , 1586 cm −1 , 1450 cm −1 , 1410 cm −1 and 1023 cm −1 . In summary, FTIR spectroscopy can be used for the rapid assessment of the scorching degree of SR, while the contents of flavonoid glycosides and aglycones may be used as the quality criteria of the scorched SR.

Biochar are widely used as adsorbents/amendments for immobilizing pollutants in contaminated soils. In this study, the effects of dissolved organic matter derived from chicken manure (CMDOM) on the adsorption of ciprofloxacin (CIP) and Cu 2+ onto biochars were investigated. The FTIR spectra indicated that π-π donor-acceptor interactions between the hydroxyl groups on the biochar surface and the fluorine group connected to the benzene ring of CIP molecule was the main adsorption mechanism for CIP. CMDOM molecules interacted with the aromatic components in biochars and thus modified the surface chemical properties of biochar. The effect of CMDOM on the adsorption of CIP onto biochars showed great dependence on the distribution of solid adsorbed CMDOM and CMDOM in aqueous solutions. The solid adsorbed CMDOM facilitated CIP adsorption owing to increase the content of –OH on biochar surface, which could provide more π-electron donors and thus strengthened π-π EDA interactions between CIP and biochars. The EDS spectra showed that the ion exchange with K + was the main adsorption mechanism for Cu 2+ onto biochars, and the presence of CMDOM enhanced complexation of Cu 2+ with adsorbed CMDOM, thus increasing Cu 2+ adsorption onto biochars. These results are useful for the application of biochars to immobilize antibiotic and heavy metals in contaminated farmland soils when animal manure fertilizers is presented in soil environment.

In this study, nanofluid based ethylene glycol (EG) containing Cu nanoparticles decorated on a Gr–MWCNT hybrid material (Gr–MWCNT/Cu) was synthesized successfully for the first time via a chemical reduction method. The SEM, HRTEM, FTIR and XRD studies revealed that Cu nanoparticles with an average diameter of 18 nm were well decorated on the surface of both MWCNTs and graphene sheets. The nanofluids containing Gr–MWCNT/Cu material showed good stability and a maximum thermal conductivity enhancement of 41% at 60 °C for the nanofluid containing 0.035 vol% material compared to EG alone. The enhancement is due to the combination of the high thermal conductivity of graphene, CNT and Cu nanoparticles as well as the higher surface area of the Gr–MWCNT/Cu hybrid structure. Experimental results of thermal conductivity were evaluated using different theoretical models, amongst which the Hamilton–Crosser model was found suitable for predicting the thermal conductivity of the nanofluid.

In the present study, a selenium-chondroitin sulfate (SeCS) was synthesized by the sodium selenite (Na2SeO3) and ascorbic acid (Vc) redox reaction using chondroitin sulfate derived from shark cartilage as a template, and characterized by SEM, SEM-EDS, FTIR and XRD. Meanwhile, its stability was investigated at different conditions of pH and temperatures. Besides, its antioxidant activity was further determined by the DPPH and ABTS assays. The results showed the SeCS with the smallest particle size of 131.3 ± 4.4 nm and selenium content of 33.18% was obtained under the optimal condition (CS concentration of 0.1 mg/mL, mass ratio of Na2SeO3to Vc of 1:8, the reaction time of 3 h, and the reaction temperature of 25 °C). SEM image showed the SeCS was an individual and spherical nanostructure and its structure was evidenced by FTIR and XRD. Meanwhile, SeCS remained stable at an alkaline pH and possessed good storage stability at 4 °C for 28 days. The results on scavenging free radical levels showed that SeCS exhibited significantly higher antioxidant activity than SeNPs and CS, indicating that SeCS had a potential antioxidant effect.Keywords:nanoselenium;chondroitin sulfate derived from shark cartilage;structure characterization;antioxidant activity
