A novel and indirect voltammetric procedure for the selective determination of formaldehyde is described. It is based on the oxidation of 3,5-diacetyl-1,4-dihydrolutidine (DDL) on an unmodified glassy-carbon electrode (GCE), generated by the selective reaction between formaldehyde and acetylacetone. A single oxidation peak of DDL at +0.8 V was observed, while formaldehyde is not electroactive under this condition, showing that this reaction can be used to indirect and selective detection of formaldehyde. Under the optimized conditions, a linear response between 0.4 and 40.0 mg L and a detection limit of 0.13 mg L were achieved, with a relative standard deviation of 0.7% (n = 10, 10 mg L). Due to the selectivity of this reaction to formaldehyde, this method is free from interference of other aldehydes. The procedure is a promising alternative for rapid formaldehyde determination in a wide range of samples.

The manufacturing of soy-based adhesives with high bonding strength, excellent water resistance, and exceptional environmental performance still faces difficulties. In this work, using glyoxal-urea (GU) resin, chitosan (CS), and soy protein isolate (SPI) as the primary raw materials in order to effectively mitigate the release of free formaldehyde commonly found in traditional wood-based panels. Obtaining an adhesive with high strength, excellent water resistance, and a stable cross-linking structure of GU/CS/SPI (CS represents different mass fractions of chitosan solution).

This study investigates the effects of incorporating wood dust particles on the mechanical and erosive wear properties of Luffa acutangula fiber (LAF)-reinforced phenol-formaldehyde composites, fabricated using the hand layup method with a constant 20% fiber content and varying wood dust particle contents of 0%, 10%, 20%, and 30%. Using the Taguchi method, the study identifies the optimal combination for minimizing erosive wear - 20% wood dust content, 45 m/s impact velocity, 60° impingement angle, 600 μm erodent size, and 60 mm standoff distance-achieving a minimum erosion rate of 189.

Differences in prognostic outcomes are prevalent in patients with colorectal cancer liver metastases. Comparative analysis of tissue samples, particularly applying single-cell transcriptome sequencing technology, can provide a deeper understanding of potential impacting factors. However, long-term monitoring for prognosis determination necessitates extended preservation of tissue samples using formalin-fixed and paraffin-embedded (FFPE) treatments, which can cause substantial RNA degradation, presenting challenges to single-cell or single-nucleus sequencing.
