We study the mechanism of alkane reduction of SnO for efficient low-temperature recovery of Sn from SnO. Based on thermodynamic simulation results, we comparatively analyze the reduction behavior and the efficiency of SnO reduction by H and alkanes (CH, 0 ≤ x ≤ 4). We found that alkanes (n·CH) with the higher nx generally complete the reduction of SnO (T) at the lower temperature. Moreover, the T of the SnO reduction by alkanes (n·CH) was decreased from the T of pure hydrogen with the same amount of hydrogen atoms (n·H). We found that the concentration of a gas phase product mixture, the amount of the produced solid carbon, and the T complementary vary as a function of the nx and ny, the total amount of carbon and hydrogen atoms in the reducing gas phase molecules. Our results demonstrate a viability of the low temperature reduction method of SnO by alkanes for efficient recovery of Sn from SnO, which can be applied for Sn recovery from Sn containing industrial wastes or Sn ores with economic value added that is held by the co-produced H.

The electrochemical reduction of CO (CORR) to value-added products has garnered significant interest as a sustainable solution to mitigate CO emissions and harness renewable energy sources. Among CORR products, formic acid/formate (HCOOH/HCOO) is particularly attractive due to its industrial relevance, high energy density, and potential candidate as a liquid hydrogen carrier. This study investigates the influence of the initial oxidation state of tin on CORR performance using nanostructured SnO catalysts.

Context: Designing efficient sensitive materials for the detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as ethanol, acetone, and benzene is stringent owing to the significant environmental and health risks induced by these compounds, in addition to their role as biomarkers for chronic diseases and food quality. This study investigates the adsorption mechanisms of VOC molecules (ethanol, acetone, and benzene) on both non-oxidized and oxidized SnO (110) monolayers and identifies the most suitable surface for gas sensing applications. For this, we examined structural properties, adsorption energies, density of states, gas responses, and recovery times.

Oxidative stress plays a crucial role in organ aging and related diseases, yet the endogenous regulators involved remain largely unknown. This work highlights the importance of metabolic homeostasis in protecting against oxidative stress in the large intestine. By developing a low-input and user-friendly pipeline for the simultaneous profiling of five distinct cysteine (Cys) states, including free SH, total Cys oxidation (Sto), sulfenic acid (SOH), S-nitrosylation (SNO), and S-glutathionylation (SSG), we shed light on Cys redox modification stoichiometries and signaling with regional resolution in the aging gut of monkeys.

Electronic waste (e-waste) has become a significant environmental concern worldwide due to the rapid advancement of technology and short product lifecycles. Waste-printed electronic boards (WPCBs) contain valuable metals and semiconductors; among them, tin can be recycled and repurposed for sustainable material production. This study presents a potential ecofriendly methodology for the recovery of tin from WPCBs in the form of tin oxide nanostructured powders.

Aims: Stroke is a major public health concern leading to high rates of death and disability worldwide, unfortunately with no effective treatment available for stroke recovery during the repair phase.
Methods: Photothrombotic stroke was induced in mice. Adeno-associated viruses (AAV) were microinjected into the peri-infarct cortex immediately after photothrombotic stroke.
