A general approach is developed for the analysis of solute transport from a source with a finite initial mass. The approach uses an effective retardation factor to assign the initial mass that can be leached from the source. Demonstration analyses are presented to illustrate the approach with the numerical simulator MT3DMS. For cases that are tractable with analytical solutions, comparisons between the numerical and analytical results confirm that the proposed approach yields correct results. The approach is straightforward to apply and can accommodate conditions ranging from pure advection to pure diffusion, effectively extending the capabilities of models to simulate sources with finite leachable masses for complex flow fields, reactions and distributions of sources.

This study addresses the critical issue of irreversible oxidation in hypochlorite (ClO⁻) sensing by a phenothiazine-based compound, which typically leads to the probe's degradation and loss of functionality. We introduce a novel fluorescence probe, (2-(5-(10 H-phenothiazin-10-yl)thiophen-2-yl)-1 H-benzo[d]imidazol-6-yl)(phenyl)methanone (PTH-BP), specifically designed to enhance ClO⁻ detection efficiency. PTH-BP exhibits strong aggregation-induced emission (AIE), emitting deep orange fluorescence at 620 nm with a large Stokes shift of 195 nm, and achieves an impressive detection limit of 1 nM in ACN/PBS buffer solutions.

Biochars (BCs) derived from waste-branches of apple tree, grape tree, and oak were developed for direct solid-phase extraction (SPE) of five benzodiazepines (BZDs) in crude urine samples prior to liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) determination. Scanning electron microscopy, elemental analyzer, X-ray diffractometry, N adsorption/desorption experiments, and Fourier transform infrared spectrometry characterizations revealed the existence of their mesoporous structure and numerous oxygen-containing functional groups. The obtained BCs not only possessed high affinity towards BZDs via π-π and hydrogen bond interactions, but also afforded the great biocompatibility of excluding interfering components from undiluted urine samples when using SPE adsorbents.

(Eu[PTC])(Eu[TREN-1,2-HOPO]) inorganic-organic hybrid nanoparticles (IOH-NPs) contain Eu, tris[(1-hydroxy-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridine-6-carboxamido)ethyl]amine (TREN-1,2-HOPO) and perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylate (PTC). The IOH-NPs are prepared in water and exhibit a rod-type shape, with a length of 60 nm and a diameter of 5 nm. Particle size and chemical composition are examined by different methods (SEM, DLS, FT-IR, TG, C/H/N analysis).

Innovative double-emission carbon dots (DE-CDs) were synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal method using fennel and m-phenylenediamine (m-PD) as precursors. These DE-CDs exhibited dual emission wavelengths at 432 and 515 nm under different excitations, making them highly versatile for fluorescence-based applications. The fluorescence of the DE-CDs was efficiently quenched by tetracycline (TC) through the inner filter effect (IFE), allowing for the construction of a sensitive dual-response fluorescent sensor.

Mixtures of multiple surfactants that have superior performance to the individual components are highly sought-after commercially. Mixtures with a reduced Krafft point () are particularly useful as they enable applications at lower temperatures. Such an example is the soap maker's eutectic: the mixture of sodium laurate (NaL) and sodium oleate (NaOl).
