Lanthanide tungstates and molybdates are promising materials for hydrogen separation membranes due to their high protonic conductivity. A promising approach to fabricating ceramics based on these materials is radiation thermal sintering. The current work aims at studying the effect of radiation thermal sintering on the structural morphological and transport properties of (Nd,Ln)(W,Mo)O as promising materials for hydrogen separation membranes. The defect fluorite structure was shown to be preserved during radiation thermal sintering at 1100 °C. The presence of protons in hydrated samples was confirmed by TGA. According to four-electrode studies and the isotope exchange of oxygen with CO, the samples demonstrate a high proton conductivity and oxygen mobility. Residual porosity (up to 29%) observed for these samples can be dealt with during membrane preparation by adding sintering aids and/or metal alloys nanoparticles. Hence, sintering by e-beams can be applied to the manufacturing of hydrogen separation membranes based on these materials.

Proton (H) NMR spectroscopy presents a powerful tool for biomass mixture studies by revealing the involved chemical compounds with identified ingredients and molecular structures. However, conventional H NMR generally suffers from spectral congestion when measuring biomass mixtures, particularly biomass carbohydrate samples, that contain various physically and chemically similar compounds. In this study, a targeted detection NMR approach, DREAMTIME, is exploited for studying biomass carbohydrate mixtures by spectroscopically targeting the desired compounds in separate 1D NMR spectra.

One important functional food ingredient today, valued for its health properties and ability to prevent disease, is bee pollen, which comprises a combination of nectar, pollen from plants, and the secretions of bees. In this research, the tyrosinase (TYR) inhibiting abilities of the peptides derived from bee pollen protein hydrolysates are investigated. Various proteases were utilized to generate these peptides, followed by testing at different concentrations.

This study developed antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) from quinoa with high antibacterial activity and stability by mixed-bacteria fermentation. Furthermore, among 9 peptide fractions purified by membrane separation and chromatography, F1 could effectively inhibit the growth and propagation of bacterial microorganisms in apple juice. Subsequently, F1 identified LC-MS/MS as 95 peptides, molecular weights 494.

Pentose oxidation and reduction, processes yielding value-added sugar-derived acids and alcohols, typically involve separate procedures necessitating distinct reaction conditions. In this study, a novel one-pot reaction for the concurrent production of xylonic acid and xylitol from xylose is proposed. This reaction was executed at ambient temperature in the presence of a base, eliminating the need for external gases, by leveraging Pt-supported catalysts.

In a previous study, we developed an integrated reaction system combining NH decomposition and CO methanation within a membrane reactor, significantly enhancing reactor performance through efficient H separation. Ru/Ba/γ-AlO and Ru/ZrO were employed as catalysts for each reaction. To ensure the accuracy and reliability of our results, they were validated through 1D models using FlexPDE Professional Version 7.
