Atom-level interaction design between amines and support for achieving efficient and stable CO capture.

Amine-functionalized adsorbents offer substantial potential for CO capture owing to their selectivity and diverse application scenarios. However, their effectiveness is hindered by low efficiency and unstable cyclic performance. Here we introduce an amine-support system designed to achieve efficient and stable CO capture.

Advancements in silicon carbide-based supercapacitors: materials, performance, and emerging applications.

Silicon carbide (SiC) nanomaterials have emerged as promising candidates for supercapacitor electrodes due to their unique properties, which encompass a broad electrochemical stability range, exceptional mechanical strength, and resistance to extreme conditions. This review offers a comprehensive overview of the latest advancements in SiC nanomaterials for supercapacitors. It encompasses diverse synthesis methods for SiC nanomaterials, including solid-state, gas-phase, and liquid-phase synthesis techniques, while also discussing the advantages and challenges associated with each method.

OCTOPUS regulates BIN2 to control leaf curvature in Chinese cabbage.

Heading is one of the most important agronomic traits for Chinese cabbage crops. During the heading stage, leaf axial growth is an essential process. In the past, most genes predicted to be involved in the heading process have been based on leaf development studies in .

Starch isolated from different hulless barley cultivars differs in their chemical and structural characteristics.

This study aimed to isolate starch and evaluate its chemical and structural characteristics from six Chinese hulless barley (HB) cultivars. Starch isolated from naked barley displays A-type crystalline packing and a regular granular shape. We measured peak viscosity values ranging from 237 to 264 cP, trough viscosity values from 305 to 380 cP, breakdown values from 390 to 535 cP, final viscosities from 357 to 523 cP, setback values from 245 to 354 cP and 383 to 460 cP, peak times from 5.

Effects of montmorillonite on alleviating dietary Cd-induced oxidative damage in carp (Carassius auratus).

The present study was designed to investigate the effects of montmorillonite (MMT) on dietary Cd-induced oxidative damage in liver and kidney of carp (Carassius auratus). One hundred eighty carp were randomly divided into four groups and fed with a basal diet, a basal diet supplemented with 0.5% MMT, Cd-comtaminated basal diet (120 mg Cd/kg dry weight) and Cd-contaminated basal diet supplemented with 0.
