Objectives: The synergistic effects between cellulases and lytic polysaccharide monooxygenases (LPMOs) were investigated systematically in terms of their degree of synergy (DS) on amorphous and crystalline cellulose. Synergy curves were obtained for enzyme pairs containing a cellulase from Trichoderma reesei (Cel6A and Cel7A) and three LPMOs from Thermoascus aurantiacus (TaAA9A), Lentinus similis (LsAA9A) and Thielavia terrestris (TtAA9E).

Results: The synergistic experiments showed that the three LPMOs significantly improved the hydrolytic efficiency of Cel6A, on both cellulosic substrates; a more pronounced effect being seen for TtAA9E on amorphous cellulose at low cellulase:LPMO ratios. In contrast, the highly processive, reducing-end acting Cel7A synergised with the C1-C4 oxidising LPMOs, TaAA9A and LsAA9A, but was inhibited by the presence of C1-oxidizing TtAA9E.

Conclusions: The degree of synergy exhibited by the cellulase-LPMO mixtures was enzyme- and substrate-specific. The observed Cel7A inhibition, rather than synergy, by the C1-oxidizing LPMO, TtAA9E, warrants further investigations.

Infections caused by fungal pathogens are a global health problem, and have created an urgent need for new antimicrobial strategies. This report details the synthesis of lipidated 2-vinyl-4,4-dimethyl-5-oxazolone (VDM) oligomers an optimized Cu(0)-mediated reversible-deactivation radical polymerization (RDRP) approach. Cholesterol-Br was used as an initiator to synthesize a library of oligo-VDM (degree of polymerisation = 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25), with an α-terminal cholesterol group.

Electrocatalytic synergy from Ni-enhanced WS for alkaline overall water splitting with tuning electronic structure and crystal phase transformation.

J Colloid Interface Sci

Henan Key Laboratory of Polyoxometalate Chemistry, School of Energy Science and Technology, Henan University, Zhengzhou 450046, PR China. Electronic address:

Due to the limited active sites and poor conductivity, the application of tungsten disulfide (WS) in alkaline water electrolysis remains a challenge. Herein, Ni-WS nanosheet arrays were in situ grown on the carbon fiber paper (Ni-WS/CFP) as an electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline media, and the introduction degree of Ni can be regulated by adjusting the electrodeposition time. When the electrodeposition time is 3 min, Ni ions are doped into the lattice of WS, and by prolonging the electrodeposition time to 10 min, the nickel disulfide (NiS) crystal phase is generated to form NiS@WS heterojunction.

Trunk-like robots have attracted a lot of attention in the community of researchers interested in the general field of bio-inspired soft robotics, because trunk-like soft arms may offer high dexterity and adaptability very similar to elephants and potentially quite superior to traditional articulated manipulators. In view of the practical applications, the integration of a soft hydrostatic segment with a hard-articulated segment, i.e.

Department of Industrial and Systems Engineering, The Hong Kong Polytechnic University, Kowloon, Hong Kong SAR, China.

This study presents a novel rod-cable hybrid planar cable-driven parallel robot inspired by the biological synergy of bones and muscles. The design integrates rigid rods and flexible cables to enhance structural stability and precision in motion control. The rods emulate bones, providing foundational support, while the cables mimic muscles, driving motion through coordinated tension.

Improper management of biogas residue (BR) can reduce sustainability in the food waste treatment industry. To address this issue, a comprehensive evaluation framework, based on emergy analysis, carbon emissions and economic analysis, is proposed in this study, to explore how different BR disposal practices affect the comprehensive performance of the industry. A food waste treatment plant in Henan Province, China (anaerobic digestion (AD) + BR landfilling: Scenario 1 [S1]), and two alternative scenarios (S2: AD + BR incineration; S3: AD + BR composting) are investigated as a case study.
