Titanium silicon molecular sieve (TS-1) is an oxidation catalyst that possesses a long lifetime of charge transfer excited state, high Ti utilization efficiency, large specific surface area, and good adsorption property; therefore, TS-1 acts as a Ti-based photocatalyst candidate. In this work, TS-1 coupled BiMoO (TS-1/BMO) photocatalysts were fabricated via a facile hydrothermal route. Interestingly, the optimized TS-1/BMO-1.

- Researchers synthesized a new silver nanocluster [AgCl(SPhBu)] and used X-ray single crystal diffraction to determine its atomically precise structure.
- The structure revealed an Ag core with a surface layer of [AgClS] and a chlorine intermediate layer, marking a novel instance of multiple chlorides incorporated into a silver nanocluster.
- This nanocluster exhibits remarkable stability, metallic behavior, and unique electronic characteristics, including continuous charge/discharge capabilities and distinct EPR signals, likely due to the presence of the intercalated chloride layer affecting electron interactions.
A first and stable Ag-P superatom nanocluster [Ag(N-triphos)(Cl)](NO) (1) has been successfully synthesized and characterized. X-ray analysis shows that this Ag cluster has a hexacapped body-centered cubic (bcc) framework which is consolidated by four tripodal N-triphos ligands. The identity of 1 is confirmed by high resolution ESI-MS.

- - The study explores how apple fruit fermentation (AFF) and Bacillus licheniformis affect strawberry tissue culture seedlings, particularly their growth and rhizosphere microorganisms.
- - Analysis revealed that the combination of AFF with Bacillus licheniformis resulted in better growth metrics such as larger leaf area and increased root length compared to other treatments.
- - The research concludes that using both AFF and Bacillus licheniformis together boosts antioxidant enzyme activities and enhances the microbial diversity in the rhizosphere, ultimately promoting plant growth.
