Seawater, NaOH, NaClO, NaClO, HO, and KMnO were used as scrubbing liquids to react with SO and NO separately in a customized wet scrubber. The absorption of SO in the aqueous phase was influenced by three factors: pH, ionic concentration, and oxidation potential. For NO removal, the effectiveness of various chemical compounds can be ranked from least to most effective as follows: seawater, NaOH, HO < NaClO < KMnO < NaClO. This effectiveness was influenced by the chemical compound's ability to oxidize NO to NO, absorb the NO that was formed, and retaining the nitrogen in the aqueous phase. High oxidation potential promoted the oxidation of NO to NO but hindered the absorption of NO. NaClO was superior compared to NaClO in all three categories of oxidizing, absorption and retention. NaClO could not retain a significant amount of NO which it absorbed in the aqueous phase. The pH around 8 provided a good balance between oxidation versus absorption/retention and reactant utilization for the chlorine-based oxidants. KMnO had the lowest reactant consumption rate; only half a mole was consumed for every mole of NO removed, compared to around 2-3 mol of chlorite or 3-5 mol of hypochlorite.

In-silico discovery of efficient second-generation drug derivatives with enhanced antihistamine potency and selectivity.
Comput Biol Chem
January 2025
Department of Chemistry, University of Agriculture Faisalabad, Faisalabad 38000, Pakistan.
The current study focuses on the potential of second-generation antihistamines, which exhibit fewer side effects compared to first-generation drugs, to block the Histamine H receptor (HR) and mitigate allergic responses. We screened several derivatives of second-generation drugs taking Desloratadine (Deslo) and Acrivastine (Acra) as seed compounds. We performed molecular docking, drug-likeness, quantum chemical calculations, UV-visible and infrared spectroscopy, molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) mapping for understanding drug derivatives potential as efficient drugs and molecular dynamics (MD).

Article Synopsis
- The study proposes that water-in-water (W/W) emulsions can be created by mixing a polymer and a surfactant, leading to phase segregation when the surfactant's cloud temperature is lowered.
- Experiments involved using an ethoxylated triglyceride surfactant (Kolliphor ELP) with gelatin, where the gelatin reduced the surfactant's cloud temperature, allowing for two distinct aqueous phases to form.
- The findings reveal that this is the first documented case of W/W emulsions formed with a polymer-surfactant mixture, achieving stability through chemically crosslinked microgels and the incorporation of mucin particles.
Natural Eutectic Solvent-Based Temperature-Controlled Liquid-Liquid Microextraction and Nano-Liquid Chromatography for the Analysis of Herbal Aqueous Samples.
Foods

Departamento de Química, Área de Química Analítica, Facultad de Ciencias, Universidad de La Laguna (ULL), Avenida Astrofísico Francisco Sánchez s/n, 38206 San Cristóbal de La Laguna, Tenerife, Spain.
In this work, two novel (-)-menthol-based hydrophobic natural eutectic solvents with vanillin and cinnamic acid were prepared and applied as extraction solvents. In this regard, 12 endocrine disruptors, including phenol, 2,4-dimethylphenol, 2,3,6-trimethylphenol, 4--butylphenol, 4--butylphenol, 4--amylphenol, 4--hexylphenol, 4--octylphenol, 4--heptylphenol, 4--octylphenol, and 4--nonylphenol and bisphenol A, were studied in a green tea drink. A temperature-controlled liquid-liquid microextraction was used as the extraction method, and nano-liquid chromatography-ultraviolet detection was used as the separation and determination system.

Article Synopsis
- A magnesium-aluminum layered double hydroxide (LDH) was created using a coprecipitation technique from a nitrate solution and transformed into a layered double oxide (LDO) after being heated to 450 °C.
- During rehydration in a fluoride solution, the LDH's original structure was restored and fluoride ions were absorbed to maintain balance, a finding confirmed by energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS).
- The study demonstrated that using ethanol during the rehydration process significantly increased fluoride incorporation, and the fluoride release pattern from the material revealed a rapid initial release followed by a slower, prolonged release.
Synthesis of Highly Expandable Poly(methacrylimide) (PMI) Precursor Beads Through Optimized Suspension Polymerization of MAA-MAN-tBMA Copolymers.

Bead-foaming technology effectively addresses production cycles, polymerization control, and cellular structure defects in conventional bulk foaming, especially in high-performance PMI foams. In this work, highly expandable PMI beads were synthesized based on the aqueous suspension polymerization of methacrylic acid-methacrylonitrile-tert-butyl methacrylate (MAA-MAN-tBMA) copolymers. The suspension polymerization was stabilized by reducing the solubility of MAA by the salting-out effect and replacing formamide (a common PMI foaming agent) with tBMA.
