C-Based Route for Vinyl Chloride Synthesis with Environmental and Economic Benefits.

Selective coupling of C platform molecules to C olefins is a cornerstone for establishing a sustainable chemical industry based on nonpetroleum sources. Vinyl chloride (CHCl), one of the top commodity petrochemicals, is commercially produced from coal- or oil-derived C hydrocarbon (acetylene and ethylene) feedstocks with a high carbon footprint. Here, we report a C-based route for vinyl chloride synthesis via the selective oxidative coupling of methyl chloride.

Post-Marketing Pharmacovigilance of Canakinumab from the FDA Adverse Event Reporting System (FAERS).

Canakinumab, a humanized anti-IL-1β monoclonal antibody, is known for its ability to suppress IL-1β-mediated inflammation. However, continuous monitoring of its safety remains essential. Thus, we comprehensively evaluated the safety signals of canakinumab by data mining from FAERS.

Comparative Analysis of Chemical Composition and Antibacterial Activity of Essential Oils from Five Varieties of Extracted via Supercritical Fluid Extraction.

This study aimed to determine the chemical composition of five essential oils (LEOs) using the gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy technique and to assess their antibacterial activity against four marine species, including , , , and . Sensitivity tests were performed using the disk diffusion and serial dilution methods. The results showed that all five LEOs exhibited antibacterial activity against the four tested marine species.

Effects of Dietary Coated Folic Acid and Folic Acid Addition on Lactation Performance, Rumen Fermentation, and Hepatic Lipid Content in Early Lactation Dairy Cows.

This study evaluated the influences of coated folic acid (CFA) and folic acid (FA) on lactation performance, apparent digestibility, rumen volatile fatty acid (VFA) production, blood metabolism, and hepatic lipid content in cows. A total of 140 Holstein cows were allocated to seven groups in a randomized block design. Cows in the control received no addition, those in the in low CFA (LCFA), medium CFA (MCFA), and high CFA (HCFA) groups received CFA at 135, 270, and 405 mg FA/d, and those in the low FA (LFA), medium FA (MFA), and high FA (HFA) groups received FA at 135, 270, and 405 mg/d.

Silver Microdisc Array Electrode Chip for Urea Detection in Saliva Samples from Patients with Chronic Nephritis.

Urea is an important biomarker for diagnosing various kidney and liver disorders. However, many existing methods rely on invasive blood sampling, which can potentially harm patients. Saliva has been recently recognized as a noninvasive and easily collectible alternative to blood for urea quantification.
