Layered zeolites and their delaminated structures are novel materials that enhance the catalytic performance of catalysts by addressing diffusion limitations of the reactant molecules. n-Hexane catalytic cracking was observed over MCM-22 layered zeolite and its derivative structures over the temperature range of 450-650 °C for the production of olefins. MCM-22, H-MCM-22, and ITQ-2 zeolites were prepared by the hydrothermal method. Oxalic acid was used as a dealuminating reagent to obtain H-MCM-22 with various Si/Al ratios ranging from 09-65. The prepared samples were characterized by XRD, SEM, TGA, and BET. The cracking of n-hexane was carried out by Pyro/GC-MS. It was observed that the selectivity for olefins was improved by increasing the Si/Al ratio. H-MCM-22-10% produced the highest relative olefinic concentration of 68% as compared to other dealuminated structures. Moreover, the product distribution showed that higher reaction temperature is favorable to produce more olefins. Furthermore, a comparison between ITQ-2 and MCM-22 derived structures showed that ITQ-2 is more favorable for olefins production at high temperatures. The concentration of relative olefins was increased up to 80% over ITQ-2 at 650 °C.

Article Synopsis
- Berberine hydrochloride (BH) is a beneficial compound with low oral bioavailability, prompting researchers to create a new delivery system called BH-loaded self-microemulsifying drug delivery system (BH-SMEDDS) to improve its effectiveness.
- The optimal BH-SMEDDS formulation consisted of specific percentages of Capmul MCM, Kolliphor RH 40, and 1,2-propanediol, resulting in stable physicochemical properties and rapid self-emulsification.
- In tests, the new delivery system showed a significant increase in BH release and achieved 1.63 times higher oral bioavailability than standard BH tablets, indicating its potential for better clinical use.

γ-valerolactone (GVL), derived from biomass, is a crucial platform compound for biofuel synthesis and various industrial applications. Current methods for synthesizing GVL involve expensive catalysts and high-pressure hydrogen, prompting the search for greener alternatives. This study focuses on a novel zirconium phosphate (ZrP)-pillared zeolite MCM-36 derivative catalyst for converting levulinic acid (LA) to GVL using alcohol as a hydrogen source.

In this work, a stable ratiometric nanofluorescent probe for the detection of 2,6-dipicolinic acid (DPA), a Bacillus anthracis biomarker, was developed based on confinement-induced emission enhancement of cationic styrylpyridine salt derivative L in MCM-22 molecular sieve pores. The cationic L and the lanthanide Tb were loaded into the pores of the molecular sieve by electrostatic interaction with the negatively charged AlO tetrahedron unit, and L exhibited enhanced red fluorescence emission as a stable fluorescence reference mark in the nanoprobe platform due to the restricted molecular torsion of L in the pores of MCM-22. At the same time, the characteristic green fluorescence emission of Tb can be excited by energy transfer due to the "antenna effect" of DPA.
