Using a mixture of NO + O as the oxidant enabled the direct selective oxidation of methane to dimethyl ether (DME) over Pt/Y O . The reaction was carried out in a fixed bed reactor at 0.1 MPa over a temperature range of 275-375 °C. During the activity tests, the only carbon-containing products were DME and CO . The DME productivity (μmol g  h ) was comparable to oxygenate productivities reported in the literature for strong oxidants (N O, H O , O ). The NO + O mixture formed NO , which acted as the oxygen atom carrier for the ultimate oxidant O . During the methane partial oxidation reaction, NO and NO were not reduced to N . In situ FTIR showed the formation of surface nitrate species, which are considered to be key intermediate species for the selective oxidation.

Phosphine (PH) fumigation is widely used to control insect pests in stored products globally. However, intensive PH use has led to the emergence of significant resistance in target insects. To address this issue, this study investigated PH resistance mechanisms by conducting both qualitative and quantitative proteomic analyses on the whole proteome of a PH-resistant Tribolium castaneum strain (AUS-07) using LC-MS/MS.

Transition metal vacancy and position engineering enables reversible anionic redox reaction for sodium storage.

Chemical Sciences and Engineering Division, Argonne National Laboratory, Lemont, IL, 60439, USA.

Triggering the anionic redox reaction is an effective approach to boost the capacity of layered transition metal (TM) oxides. However, the irreversible oxygen release and structural deterioration at high voltage remain conundrums. Herein, a strategy for Mg ion and vacancy dual doping with partial TM ions pinned in the Na layers is developed to improve both the reversibility of anionic redox reaction and structural stability of layered oxides.

Globally, heavy metal (HM) soil pollution is becoming an increasingly serious concern. Heavy metals in soils pose significant environmental and health risks due to their persistence, toxicity, and potential for bioaccumulation. These metals often originate from anthropogenic activities such as industrial emissions, agricultural practices, and improper waste disposal.

infections of grapes significantly reduce yield and quality and increase phenolic compound oxidation, resulting in color loss, off-flavors, and odors in wine. In this study, metabolites were extracted from grape homogenates comprising healthy or infected grapes from different vintages, cultivars, regions, and maturity stages. Samples were randomly analyzed by direct injection into an ion trap mass spectrometer, with data collected from 50 to 2000 / for 1 min.

Precise Regulation of In Situ Exsolution Components of Nanoparticles for Constructing Active Interfaces toward Carbon Dioxide Reduction.

ACS Nano

January 2025

Metal nanocatalysts supported on oxide scaffolds have been widely used in energy storage and conversion reactions. So far, the main research is still focused on the growth, density, size, and activity enhancement of exsolved nanoparticles (NPs). However, the lack of precise regulation of the type and composition of NPs elements under reduction conditions has restricted the architectural development of in situ exsolution systems.
