Article Abstract
Tea polysaccharides (TPS) is receiving global concern in past years due to their therapeutic effects in many diseases such as obesity and diabetes. Many publications imply that the unique physicochemical properties and bioactivities of TPS are prerequisites for its use as a biofilm, drug carrier and emulsifier. Despite numerous healthy benefits, studies on the in-deep structure-activity relationship of TPS still not well explored and explained yet. The main reasons for the research limitation are attributed mainly to the unbreakable advanced structural research technology and the formation of TPS conjugates. The present review also summarizes some similar parameters in primary structure of TPS with better bioactivities, discusses the relationships between their physicochemical properties and bioactivities, and suggests that function-specific TPS would be obtained in the future if the links between preparation methods, physicochemical properties and bioactivities of TPS could be well understood and established.

This study offers an unprecedented valuation of the French surface waters WFD chemical monitoring dataset, covering 101 substances (metals, industrial and persistent organic pollutants (POPs), plant protection product (PPP) and biocides active substances, combustion residues) measured monthly on 4000 sites of the 6 main continental river basins, during 12 years (2009-2020). The concentration data were first made comparable through an original process removing the bias induced by the space-and-time heterogeneity of the monitoring labs performance, to gather a reference workable set of monthly contamination indicators. These were then used to display the substances' seasonal and interannual timeseries, revealing, e.

We report the development of a small molecule-based barcoding platform for pooled screening of nanoparticle delivery. Using aryl halide-based tags (halocodes), we achieve high-sensitivity detection via gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry or electron capture. This enables barcoding and tracking of nanoparticles with minimal halocode concentrations and without altering their physicochemical properties.

The development of supercapacitors is pivotal for sustainable energy storage solutions, necessitating the advancement of innovative electrode materials to supplant fossil-fuel-based energy sources. Zinc oxide (ZnO) is widely studied for use in supercapacitor electrodes because of its beneficial physicochemical properties, including excellent chemical and thermal stability, semiconducting characteristics, low cost, and environmentally friendly nature. In this study, ZnO nanorods were synthesized using a simple hydrothermal method and then combined with various Ni-based layered double hydroxides (LDHs) [NiM'-LDHs (M' = Mn, Co, and Fe)] to improve the electrochemical performance of the ZnO nanorods.

Biodiesel offers an alternative to fossil fuels, primarily because it is derived from renewable sources, with the potential to mitigate issues such as pollutant and greenhouse gas emissions, resource scarcity, and the market instability of petroleum derivatives. However, lower durability and stability pose challenges. To address this, researchers worldwide are exploring technologies that employ specific molecules to slow down biodiesel's oxidation process, thereby preserving its key physicochemical properties.

Here, we introduce GSnet, a graph neural network (GNN) trained to predict physicochemical and geometric properties including solvation free energies, diffusion constants, and hydrodynamic radii, based on three-dimensional protein structures. By leveraging transfer learning, pre-trained GSnet embeddings were adapted to predict solvent-accessible surface area (SASA) and residue-specific p values, achieving high accuracy and generalizability.
