Development of analytical method for determination of 1,3-dimethylamylamine in sports nutrition and bodybuilding supplements using pH-switchable deep eutectic solvents followed by high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector.

In this work, an easy, safe, simple, and efficient pH-switchable deep eutectic solvents (DESs)-based liquid phase microextraction followed by high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detector analysis was developed for the determination of 1,3-dimethylamylamine (DMAA). The switchability of the obtained DESs was investigated by changing the pH. Then the best-selected DES was characterized and the application of the selected DES in the extraction of DMAA from sports nutrition and bodybuilding supplements was investigated.

3D Dense Encapsulated Architecture of 2D Bi Nanosheets Enabling Potassium-Ion Storage with Superior Volumetric and Areal Capacities.

2D alloy-based anodes show promise in potassium-ion batteries (PIBs). Nevertheless, their low tap density and huge volume expansion cause insufficient volumetric capacity and cycling stability. Herein, a 3D highly dense encapsulated architecture of 2D-Bi nanosheets (HD-Bi@G) with conducive elastic networks and 3D compact encapsulation structure of 2D nano-sheets are developed.
