Highly concentrated boron is widespread in salt lake brine and nuclear wastewater. Treatment of these aqueous solutions involves the solubility of extensive boron-containing minerals. Recently, we concentrated on the temperature-dependent solubility of the H3BO3 + salt + water system. Here, we systematically determined the ternary solubility isotherms in the H3BO3 + RbCl + H2O and H3BO3 + NH4Cl + H2O systems at T = (273.15, 298.15, 323.15, 348.15 and 363.15) K, using an isothermal equilibrium method. The results showed that both ternary systems belonged to a simple eutectic case. The solubility isotherms consisted of the solubility branches of H3BO3(cr) and RbCl(cr) or NH4Cl(cr). Using a revised Pitzer–Simonson–Clegg (rPSC) model implemented in the ISLEC software, these ternary solubility data were represented by fitting the interaction parameters between H3BO3 and RbCl and H3BO3 and NH4Cl. With the help of these models, polythermal phase diagrams of the two ternary systems are predicted.

Recent studies suggest that phytochemicals , as part of the food matrix, might alter the toxicity of nanoparticles (NPs); however, relatively few studies have investigated the impact of anthocyanidins on the toxicity of NPs to cells lining the gastrointestinal tract. Therefore, this study used cyanidin chloride (CC) as the model for anthocyanidins and investigated the effects of CC on the toxicity of ZnO or Ag NPs to Caco-2 cells. Exposure to ZnO but not Ag NPs significantly induced cytotoxicity. The presence of CC, but not its analog quercetin (Qu), modestly protected Caco-2 cells from ZnO NP exposure. However, the intracellular superoxide, Zn ions , or release of interleukin-8 after ZnO NP exposure were not significantly affected by the presence of CC. Rather, CC promoted the expression of autophagic genes ATG5 , ATG7 , and BECN1 as well as the ratio of LC3-II/I after exposure to ZnO NPs. Meanwhile, the presence of autophagic inhibitors (chloroquine, NH 4 Cl, bafilomycin A1) significantly promoted the cytotoxicity of ZnO NPs and inhibited the cytoprotective effects of CC. In conclusion, these data suggest that CC could modestly protect Caco-2 cells from ZnO NP exposure, probably through the induction of autophagy.
