The present study reports the ability of a fungal isolate DY1, obtained from rotten wood, to degrade alkali lignin (AL) and lignocelluloses in an efficient manner. The efficiency of degradation was monitored by measuring the percentage of decolorization and utilizing GC-MS for identifying degradation products at different time intervals (10, 20, 30, and 40 days). The optimal degradation of alkali lignin (AL) was achieved at 0.

The SARS-CoV-2 E protein conducts cations across the cell membrane to cause pathogenicity to infected cells. The high-resolution structures of the E transmembrane domain (ETM) in the closed state at neutral pH and in the open state at acidic pH have been determined. However, the ion conduction mechanism remains elusive.

Polyelectrolyte complex (PEC) hydrogels provide a promising strategy to develop a class of physically cross-linked networks characterized by exceptional toughness and self-healing properties. However, the precise control of the microstructure and the enhancement of mechanical properties still pose challenges in the field of PEC hydrogels. Herein, we propose a strategy to manipulate the structure of PEC with competitively charged surfactant micelles, leveraging the spatially confined surface charge and excluded volume effects to overcome coacervation issues associated with the PEC, thus achieving a simple one-step preparation of macroscopically uniform and tough PEC hydrogels.

High production cost of cellulases limits its commercial application on lignocellulose. Solid-state fermentation (SSF) has special advantages of water and energy conservation, however, the lack of free water and water loss during fermentation limits its application. In this paper, a constructed water-supply SSF was used to improve carboxymethyl cellulose activity and filter paper activity of 1.

The two-dimensional (2D) refocused INADEQUATE NMR experiment, which correlates double-quantum (DQ) and single-quantum (SQ) coherences, is widely used to probe the chemical connectivities in solids. Nevertheless, the multiplets along the F dimension reduce the resolution and sensitivity of this experiment. The Composite-Refocusing (CR) technique with two excitation pulses has been proposed to suppress these multiplets in 2D INADEQUATE spectra of liquids.
