The stability constants and thermodynamic functions involved in the formation of Mo(VI) and U(VI) chelates with dl-alpha-aminobutyric acid have been determined potentiometrically. It is observed that in the case of Mo(VI) system three chelates ML, ML(2) and ML(3) are formed stepwise, whereas in the U(VI) system only two chelates ML and ML(2) are formed before precipitation occurs, and both steps occur almost simultaneously. Results show that entropy makes a predominant contribution to the stability of both Mo(VI) and U(VI) chelates.

Unlabelled: Global aquaculture production faces the challenge of biologically cycling nitrogenous waste. Biofloc technology (BFT) systems offer the potential to reduce water consumption and eliminate waste products by using beneficial microorganisms to convert waste into usable nutrients or non-toxic molecules. Unlike flow-through systems (FTS), which depend on continuous water exchange and result in higher operational costs as well as limited microbiome stability, BFT operates without the need for constant water exchange.

A magnetic-biopolymer composite of carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), designated as FeO@CMC, was synthesized featuring remarkable stability and an active surface with a green biosynthetic method. This composite was engineered to serve as a substrate for stabilizing silver nanoparticles (Ag NPs) with enhanced functional properties. The catalytic efficacy of the nanocatalyst, incorporating Ag NPs at concentrations of 3%, 7%, and 10%, was evaluated for the reduction of the toxic compound 4-nitrophenol to the beneficial 4-aminophenol.

Biphasic calcium phosphate (BCP) is a bioceramic widely used in hard tissue engineering for bone replacement. BCP consists of β-tricalcium phosphate (β-TCP) - a highly soluble and resorbable phase - and hydroxyapatite (HA) - a highly stable phase, creating a balance between solubility and resorption, optimally supporting cell interactions and tissue growth. The β-TCP/HA ratio significantly affects the resorption, solubility, and cellular response, with a higher β-TCP ratio increasing resorption due to its solubility.

Carbon dot-based nanozymes have gained significant attention, but their application in dye degradation remains limited due to low activity and challenges in recovery and reuse. To overcome these limitations, high peroxidase-active Co-doped carbon dots (CoCDs) with surface amines were synthesized via hydrothermal method and immobilized onto TEMPO-oxidized cellulose nanofibrils (TOCNF) aerogels using EDC/NHS coupling. For the first time, this study investigates the dye degradation efficiency of CDs nanozyme.

Highly stable calcium ion selective electrodes (Ca-ISEs) were developed by drop-casting a layer of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene): polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT: PSS) as an ion-to-electron transfer layer onto Au electrode. The conductive PEDOT: PSS ink was prepared using a metastable liquid-liquid contact (MLLC) doping method, which induced phase separation, removed excess PSS, and significantly enhanced charge transfer kinetics and conductivity. The resulting Ca-ISEs exhibited excellent electrochemical performance.
