The sorption of anthracene (ANT) in non Brønsted acidic ZSM-5 zeolite through the mere exposure at room temperature of solid ANT and dehydrated zeolite crystals with Li(3.4)(AlO2)n(SiO2)(96-n) chemical formulas per unit cell generates spontaneous ionization of ANT (IP 7.44 eV in the gas phase). In contrast, ANT was found to be sorbed as an intact molecule in M(3.4)ZSM-5 with M = Na+, K+, Rb+, and Cs+. The radical cation (ANT*+) of the long-lived ANT*+@Li(3.4)ZSM-5*- pair was characterized by conventional diffuse reflectance UV-visible and resonance Raman spectrometry. In contrast, the X-band continuous wave (CW) EPR signal was found to be typical of a weakly coupled spin correlated ion pair. The two-dimension hyperfine sublevel correlation (2D-HYSCORE) spectra provide a detailed description of the microenvironment of the trapped electron of the ANT*+@Li(n)ZSM-5*- pair. The trapped electron appears localized in close proximity of occluded ANT*+, Li+, and the Si-O-Al nearest group of the zeolite framework.

Systematic research is still lacking on the content of hydrophilic compounds in Fu Brick Tea (FBT) from major Chinese production regions and their variation patterns during the processing of FBT. This study utilized optimized non-targeted (UHPLC-Q-Exactive Orbitrap-MS) and targeted (UHPLC-QqQ-MS) metabolomics to analyze 73 FBT samples from six regions of China and 30 samples from different stages of FBT processing. 573 and 74 hydrophilic compounds were respectively relatively and absolutely quantified for the first time.

This study assesses the impact of grape juice-based alginate or chitosan edible coatings, followed by UVC treatment, on the preservation of post-harvest quality of Red Globe grapes. Coated grapes were stored at 5 °C for 28 days, and their physical, chemical, microbiological, and sensory properties were assessed during the storage period. Films were prepared with grape juice using alginate and chitosan and exposed to 32.
