The relationship between color change and other physical and chemical characteristics of sliced cooked cured beef (SCCB) during chilled storage were investigated using principal components analysis (PCA) to determine the color fading causes. Samples were prepared and stored at 8°C for up to 35 days in a vacuum package to simulate a supermarket storage environment; related indicators were measured periodically every week. The results showed that the first PC explained 59.82% of the total variation, and the second explained 22.28%. PC1 was a concentrated reflection of color changes of SCCB during storage and PC2 was an environment factor causing the change of color. The change in apparent redness is mainly caused by redox reaction of the nitroso hemochromogen (NH) (eigenvectors of a*, C and NH in PC1 were all the maximum value of 0.28); a* was correlated with NH (0.96), free sulfhydryls (0.98), carbonyl derivatives (-0.95) formed during protein oxidation, and malondialdehyde (-0.98) and dienes (-0.92) formed by lipid oxidation. Color fading was significantly correlated with oxidizing and reducing power, existing forms of nitrogen and with the pH of the meat matrix. Changes in the internal environment of the sample initially influenced L* and b* values, and subsequently a*.

Hydroquinone (HQ) is a prevalent pollutant in aquatic environments, posing significant risks to ecosystems and human health. Practical methods for the simultaneous detection and degradation of HQ are essential. To address this requirement, a dual-mode detection and degradation strategy has been developed utilizing designed nanozymes (DM) consisting of a porous SiO core and MnO shell.

Background: Because arsenate (As(V)) is a highly toxic pollutant, timely on-site monitoring of its concentration is crucial for mitigating potential environmental and health hazards. Traditional on-site detection methods for As(V) often face limitations of long response time and low sensitivity. Nanozymes are nanomaterials that exhibit enzyme-like catalytic activity.

Article Synopsis
- A new metal-organic framework (MOF)-encapsulated nanozyme was created to detect L-cysteine (L-Cys) using a simple color change method, enhancing both catalytic activity and stability.
- The system works by oxidizing a colorless reagent to a blue color, which then fades back to colorless upon L-Cys addition, allowing for easy visual detection and quantitative analysis.
- It shows excellent selectivity and resistance to interference with a low detection limit of 23.1 nm, indicating its strong potential for bioanalysis and early L-Cys diagnosis.
Forensic determination of adhesive vinyl microplastics in urban soils.

Center of Science and Technology for the Sustainability, Federal University of São Carlos, Sorocaba, Brazil. Electronic address:
Article Synopsis
- Plastic production is mainly happening in urban areas, leading to soil contamination with plastic fragments, especially from adhesive vinyl used in signage.
- This study is the first to examine how weathered adhesive vinyl can break down into microplastics in urban soils, revealing significant concentrations of microplastics in soil samples taken from around a sign exposed for eight years.
- The findings highlight the need for more sustainable materials in urban signage and suggest this research can aid in developing public policies on plastic pollution and improve controls on polluting companies.
Investigation of photoinduced deterioration in shadow puppet artifacts collected from the National Shadow Pupperty Museum in Chengdu, China.

Article Synopsis
- Shadow puppet artifacts made from animal skin are significant cultural items but suffer from a lack of scientific preservation and research, particularly regarding their vulnerability to light damage.
- This study focuses on the photoinduced deterioration of shadow puppets in the Chengdu collection by simulating aging using a xenon arc lamp, followed by monitoring the samples in controlled conditions for 150 days.
- Various analytical techniques were utilized to assess damage, revealing that prolonged light exposure leads to significant deterioration, including fading colors, moisture loss, and structural issues like shrinkage and cracking.
