Benzoic acid, total anthocyanins, soluble solids, titratable acidity, and colour properties in juice of the American cranberry Vaccinium macrocarpon and the European cranberry Vaccinium oxycoccos were investigated. Berry juices of V. macrocarpon cultivars were distinguished by their higher total anthocyanin and benzoic acid amounts. These cultivars accumulated on average 43.11 mg/l of benzoic acid and 92.45 mg/l of total anthocyanins. The levels of benzoic acid and total anthocyanins in V. oxycoccos cultivars were 17.52 mg/l and 42.54 mg/l, respectively. The V. macrocarpon cultivars 'Franklin', 'Le Munyon', 'Searles', and 'Early Richard' were selected as the best according to the enhanced total anthocyanins and benzoic acid amounts. The separation of anthocyanins by HPLC-UV-VIS revealed the presence of six anthocyanins, with peonidin-3-galactoside being the most prevalent. Galactoside together with glucoside conjugates comprised the largest percentage of total anthocyanins in the juices of V. macrocarpon and V. oxycoccos cultivars.

Fluorescent metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are promising sensing materials that have received much attention in recent years, in which the organic ligand conformation changes usually lead to variations of their sensing behavior. Based on this, in the present work, perylene diimide (PDI) derivatives with excellent photochemical properties closely related to their conformation and molecule packing fashion were selected as organic linkers to detect sarin simulant diethyl chlorophosphate (DCP). By the coordination interactions with large lanthanide cations through terminal carboxylate groups from the PDI derivative, a series of one-dimensional coordination polymers, named [Ln(PDICl-2COO)(μ-O)(DMF)] (SNNU-112, Ln = Yb/Tb/Sm/Nd/Pr/Gd/Eu/Er/Ce, PDICl-2COOH = ,'-bis(4-benzoic acid)-1,2,6,7-tetrachlorohydrazone-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic acid diimide) were synthesized.

Non-Volatile Multifunctional Dipole Molecules Enable 19.2% Efficiency for Printable Mesoscopic Perovskite Solar Cells.

Dipole molecules (DMs) show great potential in defect passivation for printable mesoscopic perovskite solar cells (p-MPSCs), although the crystallization process of p-MPSCs is more intricate and challenging than planar perovskite solar cells. In this work, a series of non-volatile multifunctional DMs are employed as additives to enhance the crystallization of perovskites and improve both the power conversion efficiency (PCE) and stability of the devices. This enhancement is achieved by regulating the side groups of benzoic acid molecules with the electron-donating groups such as guanidine (─NH─C(═NH)─NH), amino (─NH) and formamidine (─C(═NH)─NH).

Article Synopsis
  • The study examined how adding nitrogen fertilizers affects the remobilization of cadmium in rice fields, highlighting increased cadmium levels in rice due to ammonia nitrogen (NH-N) compared to nitrogen (NO-N).
  • Organic acids secreted by rice roots, particularly under NH-N treatment, were found to play a significant role in increasing soluble cadmium content and impacting microbial community functions.
  • The research suggests a complex interaction between nutrient application, cadmium levels, and microbial dynamics that could elevate cadmium exposure through rice consumption.

Isoniazid (INH) and rifampicin (RIF) are the two main drugs used for the management of tuberculosis. They are often used as a fixed drug combination, but their delivery is challenged by suboptimal solubility and physical instability. This study explores the potential of active pharmaceutical ingredient-ionic liquids (API-ILs) to improve the physicochemical and pharmaceutical properties of INH and RIF.

Porous graphitized carbon (PGC)-supported CoFeO bimetallic catalysts (CoFeO/PGC) were prepared by a hydrothermal method using Fe(NO)·9HO and Co(NO)·6HO as precursors and were used to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for the degradation of chlorobenzene (CB). Under the conditions of CoFeO/PGC catalysts and PMS concentrations of 0.1 g/L and 5 mM, respectively, in a wide range of pH (5.
