The retention behaviour of beta-lactam antibiotics in micellar electrokinetic chromatography (EKC) was investigated. Sodium dodecyl sulphate (SDS) and sodium N-lauroyl-N-methyltaurate were used an anionic surfactants at concentrations of 0.05-0.3 M. It was found that the retention of ionic substances in micellar EKC is determined by the following three factors: the electrophoretic migration of the ionic substances, the interaction between the ionic substances and ionic surfactants and solubilization of the solute by the micellar phase. A difference in the retention behaviours of cationic substances was observed between the two anionic surfactants, which have different groups neighbouring the charge-bearing groups. The effect of an ion-pairing reagent was also investigated to make the effect of the micelle clearer. All test solutes were successfully separated by micellar EKC at SDS concentrations above 0.1 M, with theoretical plate numbers ranging from 70,000 to 260,000.

Chicken thigh is a popular and widely consumed meat product. However, its high moisture content and susceptibility to microbial spoilage limit its shelf life. To address this issue, we investigated the efficacy of an edible coating based on alginate nanoparticles (AlgNPs) containing menthol, essential oil (EO), or their combination for extending the shelf life of chicken thigh.

Under NaHCO stress, exogenous 24-epibrassinolide (EBR) markedly alleviated Na accumulation in cucumber plants, thereby decreasing the Na/K, Na/Mg, and Na/Ca ratios. This mitigation was accompanied by elevated concentrations of K, Ca, and Mg, as well as enhanced expression of the and genes. In addition, the activities of plasma membrane H-ATPase, vesicular membrane H-ATPase, and vesicular membrane H-PPase were significantly increased, contributing to the maintenance of ionic balance in cucumber plants.

Microplastics (MPs) have become pervasive pollutants in terrestrial ecosystems, raising significant ecological risks and human health concerns. Despite growing attention, a comprehensive understanding of their quantification, sources, emissions, transport, degradation, and accumulation in soils remains incomplete. This review synthesizes the current knowledge on the anthropogenic activities contributing to soil MP contamination, both intentional and unintentional behaviors, spanning sectors including agriculture, domestic activities, transportation, construction, and industry.

The complex sorption mechanisms of carbon adsorbents for the diverse group of persistent, mobile, and potentially toxic contaminants (PMs or PMTs) present significant challenges in understanding and predicting adsorption behavior. While the development of quantitative predictive tools for adsorbent design often relies on extensive training data, there is a notable lack of experimental sorption data for PMs accompanied by detailed sorbent characterization. Rather than focusing on predictive tool development, this study aims to elucidate the underlying mechanisms of sorption by applying data analysis methods to a high-quality dataset.
