This work describes the behavior of 1,6-diphenyl-1,3,5-hexatriene (DPH) in ethanol/water mixtures. The dependence of DPH photophysical properties (absorption and fluorescence emission) on the water percentage in ethanol indicates that DPH undergoes self-aggregation processes in solvent conditions above a critical water content. Evidence such as an additional absorption band, Beer's law deviation, kinetic behavior, and other experimental results obtained from temperature variation and surfactant addition demonstrated the presence of several types of DPH aggregates. Resonance light scattering measurements proved that the aggregate grew in water-rich media by a self-catalyzed process.

The rapid advancement of the Internet of Things has created a substantial demand for portable gas sensors. Nevertheless, the development of gas sensors that can fulfill the demanding criteria of high sensitivity and rapid response time continues to pose a considerable challenge. Herein, an in-situ anchoring strategy is proposed to construct CNTs@MOF heterostructure to establish strong electronic coupling and charge relocation for enhancing the monitoring capabilities of isopropanol (freshness markers for fruits) at room temperature.

With the popularization of probiotic products, tapping high-quality probiotics is crucial. Therefore, in this study, Lacticaseibacillus rhamnosus (X9C17) was selected from a pool of 54 isolates for its remarkable ability to survive in simulated gastrointestinal fluid (Gastric juice: 81.08 %, intestinal juice: 48 %), after which its probiotic characteristics were evaluated.

Surfactant-laden fluid interfaces of soft colloids, such as bubbles and droplets, are ubiquitously seen in various natural phenomena and industrial settings. In canonical systems where microparticles are driven in hydrodynamic flows, convection of the surfactant changes local surface tension. Subsequently, the interplay of Marangoni and hydrodynamic stresses leads to rich interfacial dynamics that directly impact the particle motions.

Two highly crystalline 2D acceptors, ATIC-C11 and ATIC-BO, with acenaphthene-expanded quinoxaline central cores, have been demonstrated with very different characteristics in ternary organic solar cells (OSCs). The difference in side chains induces their distinctive molecular packing mode and unique crystal structure, in which ATIC-C11 displays a 3D structure with an elliptical framework, and ATIC-BO gives a rectangular framework. Their high crystallinity contributes to organized molecular packing in ternary devices, thus low energetic disorder and suppressed energy loss.

The industrial application of pea protein is limited due to its poor gelation properties. This study aimed to evaluate the effects of psyllium husk powder (PHP) on improving the rheological, textural, and structural properties of heat-induced pea protein isolate (PPI) gel. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), intermolecular forces analysis, the quantification of the surface hydrophobicity and free amino groups, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) were conducted to reveal the inner structures of PPI-PHP composite gels, conformational changes, and molecular interactions during gelation, thereby clarifying the underlying mechanism.
