Qi and Huai chrysanthemum samples processed in different ways were discriminated by means of Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy. It was shown that different processing methods may result in the variation of relative content of effective components in chrysanthemum. The variation of chemical structure may also occur. And the variations can be reflected differently on the transform infrared spectra. The dry chrysanthemum smoked with sulphur had different characters in the vibration frequency and shape of IR from other samples at 1 600 and 1 060 cm(-1), and showed static characteristic absorptions at 922, 818 and 777 cm(-1), which were stronger than others. The chrysanthemum processed in different ways showed differences in the Fourier transform infrared spectra. The sulphur residue in chrysanthemum can be identified by FTIR without separation and abstraction. This method is not only quick and precise but also convenient and direct. Different sorts of chrysanthemum can be identified in this way.

Unlabelled: Carbapenem-resistant Enterobacterales (CRE) are divided into two distinct groups: carbapenemase-producing (CPE) and non-carbapenemase-producing (non-CPE). The population of non-CPE growing on CPE selective plates during routine screening is usually not reported and is not well defined. This study aimed to characterize non-CPE isolates growing on those plates.

Morphology regulation and element doping are effective means to improving the photocatalytic performance of graphite-phase carbon nitride (g-CN). In this article, using melamine and zinc chloride as raw materials, a novel kind of Zn/Cl-doped hollow microtubular g-CN (Zn-HT-CN) by a hydrothermal method was developed. The structure and morphology of Zn-HT-CN and reference samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction patterns (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), etc.

COVID-19 disease, triggered by SARS-CoV-2 virus infection, has led to more than 7.0 million deaths worldwide, with a significant fraction of recovered infected people reporting postviral symptoms. Smart surfaces functionalized with nanoparticles are a powerful tool to inactivate the virus and prevent the further spreading of the disease.

Zeolite was successfully synthesized using a mixture of kaolinite clay (which served as the alumina source) and rice husk ash (silica source). The aim of this work was to synthesize highly efficient zelolite to remove methyle blue dye from aqueous solution. The synthesized adsorbent was characterised using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, powder x-ray diffraction (PXRD) analysis, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and pH at the point of zero charge (pHpzc).
