Nitrogen-doped ordered mesoporous carbon supported ruthenium metallic nanoparticles: Opportunity for efficient hydrogenolysis of biomass-derived 5-hydroxymethylfurfural to 2,5-dimethylfuran by catalytic transfer hydrogenation.

One of the most promising solutions to the current energy crisis is an efficient catalytic transformation of abundant low-cost renewable raw biomass into high-quality biofuel. Herein, a highly effective catalyst was constructed systematically for the selective synthesis of 2,5-dimethylfuran (DMF) biofuel from biomass-derived 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) via green catalytic transfer hydrogenolysis (CTH) using a nitrogen-doped ordered mesoporous carbon (N-CMK-1) decorated ruthenium (Ru)-based catalyst in -propanol as hydrogen source. The structures and properties of different catalysts were characterized by different characterization techniques such as FTIR, XRD, N-sorption, CO-sorption, TGA, TEM, ICP-AES, CHNO analysis, and acid-base back titration.

The Mediating Role of Spiritual Intelligence on Well-Being and Life Satisfaction among Nurses in the Context of the COVID-19 Pandemic: A Path Analysis.

Introduction: As they are satisfied with life, nurses who demonstrate spiritual intelligence and well-being at work are tremendous assets to an organisation. This study aimed to determine the mediating effect of spiritual intelligence on the well-being and life satisfaction of nurses in the context of COVID-19. Methods: This research employed a cross-sectional study design.

[A qualitative study on nurses' experiences with social stigma in the context of COVID-19].

Aim: This study aimed to examine the social stigma experienced by healthcare workers caring for people diagnosed with COVID-19.

Methods: This research employed a qualitative-phenomenological approach. It was conducted at the COVID centers of the Hail region, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

Maintaining quality of fresh-cut mangoes using antibrowning agents and modified atmosphere packaging.

Treatments to inhibit browning and decay and prolong shelf life of fresh-cut mangoes were investigated. Combinations of antibrowning agents and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) resulted in a reduction of browning and deterioration of fresh-cut mangoes stored at 10 degrees C. Combinations of several browning inhibitors were more effective than those applied individually.
