Temporal diffusion spectroscopy (TDS) currently uses the oscillating gradient spin echo (OGSE) experiment to measure the spectral density of translational velocity autocorrelation at single frequencies. Due to timing restrictions imposed by the transverse relaxation, the frequency selectivity and the sampling density of OGSE are limited, especially at low frequencies. We propose to overcome this problem by adopting the principles of Fourier transform spectroscopy. The new method of Fourier transform TDS (FTDS) uses two broadband gradient waveforms with different relative delays to make the spin echo attenuation sensitive to a broad range of diffusion frequencies with different harmonic modulations and calculates the spectrum by discrete Fourier transform. The method was validated by a measurement of diffusion spectra in highly restrictive tissues of a celery stalk and provided results consistent with OGSE, however, on a denser frequency grid.

In this study, water-soluble fraction (WSF), chelator-soluble fraction (CSF), and sodium carbonate-soluble fraction (NSF) were sequentially fractionated from pear pulp, of which physicochemical properties and hypolipidemic activities in vitro were evaluated. They showed distinct monosaccharide composition, surface morphology, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectrums. WSF and NSF were identified as high methyl-esterified pectic polysaccharides with degrees of methyl esterification (DM) of 85.

The electrical conductivity and antibacterial properties are crucial characteristics for bacterial cellulose (BC) based membranes to be broadly applied in the field of wearable electronics. In the study, to achieve these aims, alpha-lipoic acid (LA) was utilized as anchoring groups and reducing agent, hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HP-β-CD) capped magnetic particles (FeO NPs) and the in-situ formed silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) were sequentially incorporated into the BC matrix to fabricate BC based nanocomposite membranes (HP-β-CD/FeO/LA@BC and HP-β-CD/FeO/LA/Ag@BC). Fourier transform attenuated total reflectance infrared spectroscopy (FTIR-ATR) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) analysis proved the dense networks were formed in the modified BC membranes.
