Fried oysters are a traditional dish in coastal regions; however, concerns have been raised regarding the potential nutritional loss drawbacks due to the high temperatures in the frying process, which can lead to oil oxidation. This study investigates the effects of soybean dietary fiber (SDF) and citrus dietary fiber (CDF) at supplemental levels of 0.5 %, 1 %, 2 %, and 4 % on the overall quality of fried oysters. The findings indicate that compared with the control group without dietary fiber, the addition of dietary fibers effectively reduced oil absorption and improved nutritional quality. At a 2 % concentration, SDF and CDF significantly decreased thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARs) by 24.24 % and 15.59 % and peroxide value (POV) by 38.30 % and 31.24 %, respectively, while also inhibiting lipid penetration. Further analysis through molecular docking simulations, viscosity measurements, and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) revealed that dietary fibers bind to the batter, forming a protective mechanical barrier around the oysters. This research endeavor seeks to provide a theoretical basis for improving the quality of fried oysters.

The biodegradable biomass adsorbent (cellulose- g -PSS) was synthesized in LiCl/ N, N -dimethyl acetamide by the free-radical grafting polymerization reaction between sodium styrene sulfonate (SSS) and cellulose. Systematic optimization was conducted on many reaction parameters, including reaction time, monomer dosage, and reaction temperature. The grafting yield of cellulose- g -PSS was 50.16%. The chemical structures, physical, and chemical characteristics of cellulose- g -PSS were characterized by FTIR, SEM, PZC, 1 H NMR, XRD, TGA and XPS. An assessment was conducted to determine the sorption of Ce (III) on cellulose- g -PSS by changing the contact time, adsorbent dosage, pH, initial Ce (III) concentration, and NaCl concentration. The process of adsorption rapidly reached a state of equilibrium within a time frame of 25 min and was well explained using pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm model. The maximum adsorption capacity for Ce (III) obtained from the Langmuir isotherm model was 84.80 mg·g −1 . The impact of NaCl concentration on the sorption of Ce (III) and XPS analysis showed that Ce (III) ions were adsorbed onto cellulose- g -PSS through ion-exchange mechanism. As a whole, cellulose- g -PSS exhibited great potential in rare earth wastewater treatment.

Polygonum multiflorumThunb. (PM) and derived products are broadly utilized in Chinese traditional medicine. According to our previous research, PM mostly contains polysaccharides, which display a wide range of biological activities. Two water-soluble polysaccharides (PMPs-1 and PMPs-2) were obtained from PM by DEAE-Cellulose and Sephadex G-100 column chromatography. Colorimetry, HPGPC-MALLS-RID, HPLC-PDA, methylation, FT-IR, NMR, and SEM were used to characterize these polysaccharides. PMPs-1 and PMPs-2 had average molecular weights of 255.5 and 55.7 kDa, respectively. PMPs-1 consisted of Man, Glc, Gal, and Ara at 0.9:78.6:1.0:1.6 and was a glucan with → 4)-Glcp-(1 → as a backbone. Meanwhile, PMPs-2, an acidic polysaccharide, comprised Rha, GalA, Glc, Gal, and Ara at 3.2:20.3:2.7:1.0:8.3. PMPs-1 and PMPs-2 significantly improved the proliferation of RAW 264.7 cells and induced NO, TNF-α, and IL-6 release. This study reveals that these two polysaccharides can be explored as novel immunomodulators and provide a basis for further development of PM in food and pharmaceutical industries.

Antibiotic resistance has emerged as a grave threat to global public health, leading to an increasing number of treatment failures. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are widely regarded as potential substitutes for traditional antibiotics since they are less likely to induce resistance when used. A novel AMP named Brevinin-1BW (FLPLLAGLAASFLPTIFCKISRKC) was obtained by the Research Center of Molecular Medicine of Yunnan Province from the skin of thePelophylax nigromaculatus. Brevinia-1BW had effective inhibitory effects on Gram-positive bacteria, with a minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of 3.125 μg/mL againstEnterococcus faecalis(ATCC 29212) and 6.25 μg/mL against bothStaphylococcus aureus(ATCC 25923) and multidrug-resistantStaphylococcus aureus(ATCC 29213) but had weaker inhibitory effects on Gram-negative bacteria, with a MIC of ≥100 μg/mL. Studies using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and flow cytometry have revealed that it exerts its antibacterial activity by disrupting bacterial membranes. Additionally, it possesses strong biofilm inhibitory and eradication activities as well as significant lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-binding activity. Furthermore, Brevinin-1BW has shown a significant anti-inflammatory effect in LPS-treated RAW264.7 cells. In conclusion, Brevinin-1BW is anticipated to be a promising clinical agent with potent anti-Gram-positive bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.

In this study, a spent mushroom substrate (SMS) from Lentinus edodes cultivation was used to prepare biochar (BC) and magnetic biochar (MBC) at high temperatures. The magnetic field strength of MBC was proved via VSM analysis. The results of the nitrogen adsorption‒desorption isotherms of BC and MBC showed that MBC exhibited stronger adsorption, and SEM was performed to compare the microstructures of BC and MBC. TEM was performed to compare the distributions of C, O, and Fe. The FT-IR and XRD results revealed changes in the structure and the formation of new substances after magnetization; that is, MBC was more conducive to the adsorption and recovery of pesticides. Moreover, a method for the detection of tetramethrin, beta-cypermethrin, and fenvalerate in water samples (tap water, lake water, and river water) was established, and this method combined the use of MBC as adsorbent and high-performance liquid chromatography. Moreover, great linearity of the method was obtained in the range of 0.5–2.5 μg/mL; the recoveries in real samples were in the range of 70.20–73.32%, and the RSDs were in the range of 0.22–1.09%. The method is simple and effective, is suitable for the detection of pyrethroids in water, and has certain application potential.

A chitosan-based adsorbents (CS-Ninhydrin) was prepared by grafting ninhydrin for Pb(II) ions adsorption. SEM-EDS, XRD and FTIR analysis were used to characterize the synthesized CS-Ninhydrin. The static adsorption experiments showed that CS-Ninhydrin had a good removal rate for Pb(II) ions in a wide range of pH 3 to 7, quickly reached equilibrium (120 min) and had a higher adsorption capacity (196 mg/g). Pseudo second-order and Langmuir models showed that the adsorption process of Pb(II) by CS-Ninhydrin was a single-layer chemical adsorption. Temperature experiments showed that the reaction was a spontaneous exothermic process. In the wastewater experiment, CS-Ninhydrin showed an excellent selectivity to Pb(II) ions. The reusability of CS-Ninhydrin was perfect after five adsorption-desorption cycles. The main adsorption mechanism was the chelating and electrostatic action between N and O groups in CS-Ninhydrin and Pb(II) ions. Therefore, the new adsorbent CS-Ninhydrin was expected to promote the wide application of chitosan in Pb(II) adsorption.

Alginate-PEI beads are functionalized by phosphorylation and applied for the sorption of Nd(III) and Mo(VI). The successful grafting of phosphoryl groups (as tributyl phosphate derivative) is characterized by FTIR and XPS analysis, elemental analysis, titration (pH PZC ), TGA, BET and SEM-EDX analyses. The multi-functional characteristics of the sorbent (i.e., carboxylic, hydroxyl, amine and phosphate groups) contribute in the binding of metal ions having different physicochemical behaviors. The sorption of Nd(III) is strongly increased by phosphorylation, while for Mo(VI) the enhancement is rather limited. Optimum sorption occurs at pH 3–4: maximum sorption capacity reaches up to 1.46 mmol Nd(III) g −1 and 2.09 mmol Mo(VI) g −1 ; sorption isotherms are fitted by the Langmuir equation. The equilibrium is reached within 30–40 min and the kinetic profiles are simulated by the pseudo-first order rate equation. The coefficients of the effective diffusivity are close to the self-diffusivity of Nd(III) and Mo(VI) in water; as a confirmation of the limited impact of resistance to intraparticle diffusion in the kinetic control. The sorbent is selective for Nd(III) over Mo(VI) and other alkali-earth or base metals (at pH close to 2.5–3). Metals can be readily desorbed using 0.2 M HCl/0.5 M CaCl 2 as the eluent. The loss in sorption does not exceed 5% at the fifth cycle, while desorption remains complete. A series of treatments (including acidic leachate, cementation, precipitation, sorption and elution) is successfully applied for the recovery of rare earths from Egyptian ore; with enrichment in the oxalate precipitate of Nd(III), Gd(III), Sm(III) and Eu(III).

Nanoscale plugging agent is essential to wellbore stability of troublesome shale formation in the drilling of oil and gas wells. In this paper, polymeric nanospheres (PNS) with a double cross-linked structure were synthesized using monomers of styrene (ST), acrylamide (AM), 2-Acrylamide- 2-methylpropanesulfonic acid (AMPS), and dimethyl diallyl ammonium chloride (DMDAAC). PNS were characterized by FTIR, SEM and TGA. The plugging performance of PNS was analyzed using nitrogen adsorption experiments and SEM. And compatibility with water based drilling fluid (WBM) was studied. Experimental results showed that PNS had a mean particle size of 133 nm, and could retain about half of the original size after high temperature treatment under 150–200°C. TGA showed that the initial decomposition temperature of PNS is around 315°C. After plugging by PNS, both the specific surface area and pore volume of the shale cuttings decreased substantially compared with those of shale samples treated with water. Thus, PNS was thermal stable in WBM under high temperature and could effectively plug shale pores. Besides, PNS was beneficial to reduce both API and HTHP fluid loss of WBM.

In this work, a new type of self-assembled phytic acid-graphene oxide composite foam (PAGF) was prepared by hydrothermal method. In addition, Au nanoparticles (Au NPs) and Fe 3 O 4 particles were loaded onto PADF to obtain PAGF@Au&Fe 3 O 4 composite by a simple one-step method. The addition of graphene oxide (GO) can effectively prevent the agglomeration of Au NPs and weaken its surface passivation. The results of SEM, XRD, XPS and BET proved the successful preparation of the composite and its large specific surface area. Moreover, the synthesized PAGF@Au&Fe 3 O 4 composite showed good catalytic performance for p-nitrophenol (4-NP) and o-nitroaniline (2-NA) solutions with the rate constant (k) values of 0.0799 min −1 and 0.0546 min −1 , respectively. Due to the addition of Fe 3 O 4 , the composite exhibited good stability and recyclability, and maintained high catalytic efficiency after 8 cycles of catalytic process. The current work provides new ideas for developing novel graphene oxide-based composite materials and their catalytic degradation of organic pollutants.

In this study, a diversified waste recycling system and a green processing technology are proposed. This research not only finds feasible solutions to alleviate environmental problems of plastic pollution and straw burning but also provides new reuse methods for oyster shell waste and hogwash oil. The developed noval biocomposite material is conducive to the green development of express industry. This paper evaluates the performance of materials from many aspects: X-ray computed tomography characterization, fundamental physical properties, mechanical properties, microscopic morphology, SEM morphology, and comprehensive performance of products. Two kinds of products with economic value are found. One is sample 4, which is suitable for making granular products due to its low cost (0.328$/500 g). Another is sample 13, which is suitable for manufacturing green packaging materials due to its excellent mechanical properties (tensile strength 14.15 MPa; elongation at break 12.68%; Young’s modulus 8189.89 MPa). Based on the experimental results, the process of the composite is simulated to study the different strengthening mechanisms of arabic gum and poly(methyl vinyl ether-alt-maleic anhydride). Arabic gum uses chemical reaction and principle of similarity and intermiscibility to fuse with biomass to form homogeneous hybrid in the form of liquid gel. Poly(methyl vinyl ether-alt-maleic anhydride) indirectly adheres filler to the matrix through ring-opening reaction and structural similarity. The new emulsification system caused by arabic gum promotes the arabic gum and nano-fluid coupling cross-linking system to produce a decentralized cross-linked network and inhibit the pernicious molecular chain entanglement.

Most modifications of wool focused on its surface due to the existence of the cuticle scales. For instance, chlorination, oxidation and protease treatments were used to break down or remove the scales. However, these modifications usually severely damaged the internal structure of wool. In this paper, a novel approach based on surface micro-dissolution was employed to modify the surface of wool to minimize the internal damage of wool, and improve the surface-related properties of wool. The micro-dissolution system used NaHSO 3 /urea to dissolve the scale layer of wool. After being micro-dissolved with NaHSO 3 /urea system, scanning electron microscope (SEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), fluorescence microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and the Allwörden reaction were utilized to characterize the treated wool. Furthermore, felting shrinkage, strength loss and wettability of the treated wool were determined. The results showed that NaHSO 3 /urea system could dissolve the scale layer from outside to inside. The fluorescence microscopic images further indicated that low concentration of NaHSO 3 /urea system can dissolve the surface of wool without the serious damage of internal structure. Moreover, the micro-dissolution system can be controlled to dissolve the scale layer on the surface of wool slightly by adjusting the reaction conditions. The presented method is simple, easy to operate, and economical, thereby can open up new directions for the surface modification of wool.

Nowadays, most of mineral-based adsorbents are powder form, which makes them inconvenient to collect and always easy to cause secondary pollution. In this work, an organic rectorite composite nanofiber membrane (SRt-PAN) was designed and prepared by electrospinning technique. The as-received composite nanofiber membranes were characterized by XRD and SEM analysis, proving the homodisperse and existence of SRt in PAN nanofiber membrane. A series of batch experiments for BPA adsorption were carried out to investigate the effect of different adsorption parameters, including initial concentration, pH, and temperature of pollutant solution. The influences of modifier dosage and adsorbent dosage on the adsorption performance were investigated as well. On the basis of the experiment results, the adsorption process could be well described by the pseudo-second-order model and the Langmuir isotherm. In addition, the thermodynamic parameters indicate that this adsorption process is exothermic and spontaneous. Moreover, compared with pure nanofiber membranes and organic rectorite powders, the resultant SRt-PAN adsorbents exhibited higher adsorption capacity, superior reusability, and adsorption stability. It is indicated that the hydrophobicity surface of organic rectorite should be the key factor to not only the intimate interfacial combination between the mineral and PAN, but also the enhancement of BPA adsorption capacity.
