Quantitative NMR Spectrometry of Phenylpropanoids, including Isoeugenol in Herbs, Spices, and Essential Oils.

Isoeugenol (2-methoxy-4-(1-propenyl)phenol) has been recently classified as possibly carcinogenic to humans (Group 2B) by the International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC). This study conducted an analysis of isoeugenol in common herbs and spices, including basil, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg, using H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrometry. Additionally, over 1300 coffee samples were analysed by H-NMR for isoeugenol, but it was not detected in any of the analysed samples.

The Prescription of Drug Ontology 2.0 (PDRO): More Than the Sum of Its Parts.

While drugs and related products have profoundly changed the lives of people around the world, ongoing challenges remain, including inappropriate use of a drug product. Inappropriate uses can be explained in part by ambiguous or incomplete information, for example, missing reasons for treatments, ambiguous information on how to take a medication, or lack of information on medication-related events outside the health care system. In order to fully assess the situation, data from multiple systems (electronic medical records, pharmacy and radiology information systems, laboratory management systems, etc.

Correction: Modulation of the mechanical energy storage performance of the MIL-47(V) metal organic framework by ligand functionalization.

Correction for 'Modulation of the mechanical energy storage performance of the MIL-47(VIV) metal organic framework by ligand functionalization' by Pascal G. Yot et al., Dalton Trans.

Modulation of the mechanical energy storage performance of the MIL-47(V) metal organic framework by ligand functionalization.

The functionalization of the metal-organic framework MIL-47(V) with ligands bearing bulky functional groups (-Br or -CF) has been envisaged as a possible route to enhance the mechanical energy storage performances of this family of hybrid porous materials. This exploratory work was carried out by coupling advanced experimental techniques (mercury intrusion and X-ray powder diffraction) supported by density functional theory calculations. MIL-47(V)-BDC-CF was demonstrated to be one of the most promising porous materials for mechanical energy-related applications with performance in terms of work energy which surpasses that of any porous solids reported so far.
