Solid acid-catalyzed dehydration of fructose to produce 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF) has been a hotspot in biomass conversion research in recent years. In this study, a novel SAPO-34-based catalyst was prepared by consecutive steps of titanium doping, sulfuric acid impregnation, and sulfonic acid functionalization. Characterization of the catalyst with X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), BrunauerEmmett-Teller (BET), inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES), and acid-base titration revealed different pore structures and more acid content compared to SAPO-34. The catalyst was applied to the preparation of 5-HMF by dehydration of fructose, and the maximum yield (74.0%) of 5-HMF was obtained by reacting in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) at 170 °C for 50 min. In addition, the applicability of the catalytic system to other substrates and the stability of the catalyst after five cycles were investigated, which are valuable for further probing on the concerned aspects.

Water soluble sugars play an important role in the flavors and irritations of the cigarette sensory quality and the low content of water soluble sugars in the discarded tobacco leaves was a huge obstacle for their application. To make better use of the discarded tobacco leaves, a novel roasting method with sugar supplement was developed to enhance the sugar contents and total flavor compounds (TFCs) of tobaccos. Three main factors in the roasting process namely the reaction time, reaction temperature, and glucose supplement were optimized by single factor methodology. A proper condition was established as reaction time of 10 min, reaction temperature of 140 °C, and glucose supplement of 30%, which was further optimized by the response surface method through a three-level-three-variable Box–Behnken design. Moreover, the flavor compounds of the roasted cut tobacco extracts were analyzed and their effects in cigarettes were also determined. All these results suggested that this simple and easy method could be used to make better use of discarded tobacco leaves.

Water hyacinth is a major aquatic plant in ecological restoration which propagates rapidly, whereas its biomass waste lacks value-added utilization routes. To address this problem, we put forth an innovative two-step carbonization strategy to convert water hyacinth to catalyst for isomerization of glucose to fructose. Through combining the hydrothermal carbonization and pyrolysis , catalyst morphology including its carbon substrate and calcium salts was successfully engineered. The prepared hydrochar-based catalyst presented an outstanding catalytic performance, the optimal of which could obtain 31% fructose yield with 89% selectivity at 120 °C for 45 min in water and maintain the reactivity for at least three runs. The catalytic reactivity was derived from the crystallization of endogenous alkaline earth calcium in water hyacinth, which was comparable to catalysts doped with expensive metals. Besides, the equipment and energy requirements for preparation were quite low-demanding (calcined only at 400 °C for 1 h). This study not only pioneers a sustainable way to upcycle aquatic biomass, but also invents a low-cost and efficient catalyst for biorefinery through the production of engineered carbon.

Efficient conversion of biomass-derived carbohydrates to alkyl levulinates is an important goal of biorefinery process, but is still challenging on applicable catalyst. Ce–Si pillared montmorillonite (CeSiM) clay heterostructures , incorporated with Wells-Dawson tungstophosphoric acid (H 6 P 2 W 18 O 64 , DPW), were prepared for the first time and used as the multifunctional catalyst for direct production of ethyl levulinate (EL) from various biomass-derived sugars. The DPW introduced by sol-gel method (DPW-CeSiM) has been effectively incorporated into the framework of porous CeSiM, while part of DPW was just absorbed on the surface of CeSiM by impregnation method (DPW-CeSiM-I). The DPW-CeSiM catalyst has large specific surface area owing to the insertion of Ce–Si pillars, and possesses strong Brønsted acidity and moderate Lewis acidity originated from the incorporated DPW and the Ce-doping, respectively. Due to the well synergistic effect of porous structure and dual acid, the DPW-CeSiM catalyst efficiently catalyzed the conversion of glucose into EL with 56.2% yield and nearly 100% conversion at 170 °C for 4 h. The recyclability studies certified that DPW-CeSiM catalyst showed higher stability than DPW-CeSiM-I over cycles and could be easily recovered from consecutive alcoholysis of biomass-derived sugars. The DPW-CeSiM catalyst also displayed high activity toward the conversion of other biomass-derived carbohydrates (fructose, sucrose, cellobiose and cellulose) into EL. Therefore, this work provides an instructive strategy for the design of efficient and stable DPW-based catalysts with dual acid sites uniformly distributed over the porous structure, which is obviously potential for industrial production of alkyl levulinates from carbohydrates and biomass.

Objective Critical process parameters (CPPs) identification is an important step of the implementation of quality by design (QbD) concept. There are many CPP identification methods, such as risk analysis method, sensitivity analysis method, multiple linear regression method, standard partial regression coefficient (SPRC) method, and so on. The SPRC method can consider multiple process critical quality attributes (CQAs) simultaneously, but the determination of CPP number is subjective. Therefore, new CPP identification method is still required. Methods The manufacturing process of Astragali Radix extract, which contained water reflux extraction, concentration, and ethanol precipitation, was used as an example. First, the multiple process CQAs were determined to be the yield of pigment, dry matter, sugars, and active ingredients. Second, the potential CPPs were determined by a knowledge organization method. Plackett-Burman designed experiments were then performed. A weighted determination coefficient ( R w 2 ) method was presented to identify CPPs. In this method, the importance of different CQAs was considered. Process parameters were removed one-by-one according to their importance index. The decrease in R w 2 was used to characterize the importance of the removed parameter. If the decrease of R w 2 was less than a preset threshold, the removed parameter was not a CPP. Results During the manufacturing process of Astragali Radix extract, the potential CPPs determined by the knowledge organization method were water consumption, reflux extraction time, extraction frequency, ethanol content, ethanol consumption, and concentration endpoint. Reflux extraction time, the first ethanol consumption, the second ethanol consumption, and the second ethanol precipitation refrigeration temperature were found to be CPPs using the weighted determination coefficient method with the threshold of 10%. Conclusion Using the weighted determination coefficient method, CPPs can be determined with all the CQAs considered based on their importance. The determination of CPP number is more objective compared with the SPRC method.

Designing highly active material to fabricate high-performance glucose sensor was great importance for diabetes treatment. In this work, we develop a novel nanocomposite composed of multilevel nanostructure with ultrathin Cu x O nanoflakes anchored on Cu 2 O nanowires, directly on Cu foil and its application as non-enzymatic glucose sensor. Due to more active sites endowed by the ultrathin Cu x O nanoflakes, the as-prepared Cu x O nanoflakes/Cu 2 O nanowires@Cu nanoarray exhibit high sensitivity (3.59 mA mM −1 cm −2 ), low detection limit (0.69 μM), high selectivity, fast amperometric response (~ 2 s) and excellent reliability in human serum. And the sensitivity of ultrathin Cu x O nanoflakes/Cu 2 O nanowires@Cu nanoarray was 1.9-fold than that of Cu 2 O nanowires@Cu nanoarray. Such novel multilevel nanoarray synthesized by convenient method provides a facile way to design metal oxide nanomaterial for promising non-enzymatic glucose sensor.

Poly(1,3,5-triethynylbenzene) (PTEB), a newly developed conjugated arylacetylene polymer, was utilized for photoelectrochemical (PEC) enzymatic bioanalysis in this work. The porous nanofiber framework of PTEB film which produced an apparent cathodic photocurrent under visible light illumination was fabricated on an indium tin oxide (ITO) electrode via copper-surface mediated interface Glaser polycondensation. As the photocurrent density of the metal-free photocathode displayed a characteristic O2 dependency, the consumption of dissolved oxygen caused by the modified glucose oxidase (GOx) in biocatalysis induced a depressed photoresponse in the presence of glucose. The fabricated PEC transducer exhibited favorable glucose sensing performances in the linear range of 5 μM to 8 mM and with the detection limit of 1.7 μM; it could also be employed in glucose monitoring in human serum. Moreover, the acetylenic carbon-rich polymer possessed the superior features of being cost-effective in preparation and machinable in device development, which sheds light on the exploration of an advanced PEC sensing platform based on conjugated organic polymers for the bioanalysis of valuable analytes.

Ethanol precipitation serves an important separation technology used for the manufacturing of more than 200 traditional Chinese medicines (TCM). In the present study, a membrane dispersion micromixer was employed for the ethanol precipitation of Codonopsis Radix concentrates to reduce the coating loss of active components. As membrane pore size decreased, mixing chamber width decreased, or mixing chamber depth decreased, lobetyolin recovery increased and dry matter removal decreased. Higher dry matter contents of concentrates (DM C ) or lower flow rates of two phases could lead to reduced lobetyolin recovery and increased dry matter removal. The mass ratio of ethanol solution to concentrate (ECR, g/g) showed little effect on lobetyolin recovery. Higher dry matter removal was obtained when ECR was higher. Higher continuous phase Reynolds number ( Re c ) or dispersed phase Reynolds number ( Re d ) resulted in higher lobetyolin recovery and lower dry matter removal. Lobetyolin recovery could be higher than 95% when using micromixing technology, which was about 10% higher than that of stirring. Membrane dispersion technology is promising to reduce the coating loss of active compounds in TCM ethanol precipitation.

A universal and ultrasensitive immunochromatographic assay (ICA) was established using antigen as a bifunctional element and antialbumin antibody in a test line. Preincubation was introduced for competitive recognition. After optimization, the linear detection of aflatoxin M1 (AFM1) with quantum dot bead (QB)-based ICA (QB-ICA) sensor ranged from 10 to 52 pg mL–1, with a 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) of 23 pg mL–1, which was nearly 49.6-fold lower than those of ICA on a traditional structure with traditional pretreatment (IC50 = 1.10 ng mL–1) and 10-fold lower than those of ICA on a traditional structure with acid aid pretreatment (IC50 = 0.25 ng mL–1). The limit of detection (LOD) for AFM1 was 16 pg mL–1 in milk, which was approximately 16.3-fold times higher than those of ICA on a traditional structure with traditional pretreatment and 6.3-fold higher than those of ICA on a traditional structure with acid aid pretreatment. The LOD improved by 20-fold by using the proposed structure compared to that of conventional enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for AFM1-spiked milk samples (IC10 = 0.12 ng mL–1). The performance and practicability of the established QB-ICA sensor were validated with a commercial ELISA kit. To evaluate universality, we successfully detected chloramphenicol, with IC50 of 0.42 ng mL–1. Given its high sensitivity and universality, the proposed QB-ICA can be used as an alternative for rapid, sensitive, and universal quantitative detection of all small-molecule analytes.

Smooth, uniform and controllable hydrothermal carbon coatings (HTCCs) had been successfully constructed on the carbon fibers through the efficient hydrothermal transformation approach from renewable carbohydrate. The thickness of HTCC could be effectively tailored from nano-scale to micro-scale by just adjusting the concentration of carbohydrate solution and the oxygen content in the HTCC could be significantly controlled through the high-temperature treatment. As for the growth model of the HTCC, FeCl 3 played a critical role in improving the transformation from glucose to the dehydrated intermediate, mainly composed of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), and promoting the conversion from HMF to carbonaceous structure, subsequently. The efficient and scalable preparation route not only offered promising prospects for radically substituting the traditional methods to prepare the carbon coating, but also provided a novel surface modification strategy of carbon fibers in the fields of carbon fiber reinforced composites and flexible textile electronic devices.

Silicon quantum dots have become one of the most popular nanomaterials in biological applications for their excellent biocompatibility and optical properties . Herein, we synthesized amino-functionalized silicon quantum dots (NH 2 @SiQDs) via a simple microemulsion method, in which silicon tetrachloride and allylamine were used as source of silicon and functional group. NH 2 @SiQDs exhibits good water-solubility, high fluorescence quantum yield and optical stability. A non-enzymatic biosensor of glucose was developed based on the fluorescence quenching of NH 2 @SiQDs in response to glucose. The fluorescence response was linearly proportional to glucose in the concentration range of 1.0 × 10 −6 –9.0 × 10 −5 mol/L and the detection limit was determined to be 3.0 × 10 −7 mol/L. The developed glucose sensor was successfully applied in blood glucose analysis of human serum. Satisfactory result that agreed very well with traditional method was obtained.
