Cholinium-glycinate ([Ch][Gly]) and cholinium-alanate ([Ch][Ala]) were investigated on the pretreatment of mulberry stem (MS). It resulted in an increase of glucose from 14% to more than 74% compared to the untreated sample. Pretreatment by reused [Ch][Gly] showed good performance for delignification of >60%, and improved structural polysaccharide digestion. Each fractional component has high potential for lignin purification, and succinic acid fermentation. The extracted lignin with [Ch][Gly] showed >90% purity with good qualities of aromatic unit as confirmed by FT-IR and H NMR spectra. The carbohydrate rich material was employed for succinic acid fermentation with the highest yield of succinic acid more than 0.89 g/g. After purification, poly(butylene) succinate (PBS) was synthesized, and was characterized in comparison to commercial PBS.

The hydro/dicarboxylation of ethylene (CH) feedstock with CO to produce high-value carboxylic acids is an industrially relevant yet challenging reaction due to their extremely low reactivities. Herein, we present an effective strategy to synthesize propionic acid and succinic acid from a mixture of CO and CH catalyzed by high-energy water radiolysis. The process involves the generation of CO radical anions via the barrierless attachment of hydrated electrons to CO, facilitating an ambient, continuous carboxylation of CH with an efficiency of 81.

In this study, covalent octenyl succinic anhydride starch-soy protein- (-)-Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (OSAS-SP-EGCG) complexes were synthesized by HO/ ascorbic acid radical grafting method. Particle size, ζ-potential, Fourier transform infrared, and thermogravimetric results proved the formation of covalent OSAS-SP-EGCG complexes. The results of scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy confirmed that the particles of the covalent complexes (especially 1:4 complexes) were more uniformly distributed.

The effect of beef cattle (Angus vs. Simmental) feeds with various diet formulas on the production performance, blood biochemical indexes, beef quality, and rumen bacterial diversity were investigated. Corn silage, sorghum silage, and the mixture of corn silage and sorghum silage were used as experimental materials to compare the feeding effect of different proportions of feed.

Supramolecular polymers (SPs) based on the stacking of hydrogen-bonded rosettes are attracting increasing attention due to their potential applications as soft materials. However, a detailed description of the interactions that give rise to these one-dimensional architectures is still scarce in the literature. In this work, we use molecular dynamics to analyze in aqueous solution the stability of two SPs based on amino triazines (AT) and amino pyrimidines (AP) modified with a hydrophilic chain of succinic acid (-saH).
