A rapid and simple method was established for the simultaneous determination of ten diterpenes by reversed phase HPLC coupled with evaporative light scattering detection. Chromatographic separation was carried out in gradient mode by using a WondaSil™ C(18) column (250mm×4.6mm, 5μm) with mobile phases of methanol and water at 1mL/min. The drift tube temperature of evaporative light scattering detector was set to 65°C and nitrogen flow-rate was 2.7L/min. The method validated was shown to be specific, precise, accurate and linear. Moreover, it was applied to investigate four samples of E. fischeriana with different extracting methods. Contrast to the dried roots, the fresh roots had much higher content of prostratin which represented much higher inflammatory effects than other diterpenes. The results demonstrated that the dried roots were suitable for the ordinary therapy to avoid intense stimulatory, while the fresh roots could be used in the anticancer treatment. All of the results suggested that comparative analysis of chemical components as biomarker and connecting toxic effects of an herb was helpful for revealing the mechanism of its toxicity, and for guiding safer and better application of the herb in TCM clinic.

This work reports on the preparation process of a double-layer perovskite active layer. The first active layer film, CsKPEAPbIBr, was fabricated using a spin-coating method, while the second active layer, MAPbBr, was deposited using MAPbBr single crystals as the evaporation source. Additionally, doping the PEDOT: PSS hole transport layer with ETA and EDA can enhance the uniformity of the perovskite film and reduce voids, improving charge transport efficiency.

Solar-driven interfacial evaporation is regarded as a green and sustainable strategy to address the global freshwater crisis. Nevertheless, it remains challenging to develop a photothermal structure with highly efficient evaporation under omnidirectional illumination. Herein, a three-dimensional multiscale pyramidal array photothermal structure (PAPS) was developed from the inspiration of durian skin.

: This study aims to broaden the knowledge on co-amorphous phospholipid systems (CAPSs) by exploring the formation of CAPSs with a broader range of poorly water-soluble drugs, celecoxib (CCX), furosemide (FUR), nilotinib (NIL), and ritonavir (RIT), combined with amphiphilic phospholipids (PLs), including soybean phosphatidylcholine (SPC), hydrogenated phosphatidylcholine (HPC), and mono-acyl phosphatidylcholine (MAPC). : The CAPSs were initially prepared at equimolar drug-to-phospholipid (PL) ratios by mechano-chemical activation-based, melt-based, and solvent-based preparation methods, i.e.

Alkaline lakes are thought to have facilitated prebiotic synthesis reactions on the early Earth because their modern analogs accumulate vital chemical feedstocks such as phosphate through the evaporation of dilute groundwaters. Yet, the conditions required for some building block synthesis reactions are distinct from others, and these conditions are generally incompatible with those permissible for nascent cellular function. However, because current scenarios for prebiotic synthesis have not taken account of the physical processes that drive the chemical evolution of alkaline lakes, the potential for the co-occurrence of both prebiotic synthesis and the origins and early evolution of life in prebiotic alkaline lake environments remains poorly constrained.
