This study explores the use of ionic liquid-based ionogels as multifunctional materials for both CO₂ capture and its electrochemical conversion into carbon monoxide. By integrating these processes within a single quasi...

Abstract Muscle-based by-products are often undervalued although commonly reported having a high amount of natural bioactive peptides. In this study, elastin was isolated from the protein of broiler hen skin while its hy...

In this work, we present the preparation of a hybrid material constituted by a Metal-Organic Framework (type MIL-101(Fe)) and a natural clay ceramic monolith (NCCM), the materials were successfully assembled through an i...

Metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) have emerged as promising materials for atmospheric water harvesting (AWH). Large-pore MOFs provide high water capacity, but their significant hysteresis between sorption and desorption ...

Abstract Rapid identification of bacterial species from patient samples is crucial for clinical decision‐making. In severe infections, such as bloodstream infections, the early start of an effective treatment is direct...

Neonatal sepsis has remained a foremost cause of morbidity and mortality globally, specifically in low- and middle-income countries. The neonatal period, which spans the first 28 days of life, has the highest lifetime ri...

Abstract The confinement effect is increasingly recognized as a critical factor influencing guest–framework interactions in molecular sieves, yet its impact on adsorption kinetics remains largely unexplored. Convention...

We describe an outbreak of Klebsiella pneumoniae sequence type 11 (ST11) producing KPC variants resistant to ceftazidime-avibactam. Six patients hospitalized in the intensive care unit (mostly due to critical COVID pneum...

ABSTRACT Tetracycline (TC) is a commonly prescribed broad‐spectrum antibiotic, and its widespread use together with its persistence in biological matrices, particularly urine, has raised serious concerns related to cli...

This paper reports on miniaturized hydrogen sensing platforms, exploring several means of fabricating nano‐ structured films and evaluating their sensing characteris‐ tics. Palladium-sputtered nanoporous organosilica...

A series of well-crystallized praseodymium oxide (Pr6O11) nanoparticles are synthesized via a highly scalable process from praseodymium nitrate. Praseodymium hydroxide is synthesized through a modified polyol process and...

It was aimed to evaluate a variety of conventional and emerging CO2-selective adsorbents, considering their use in a five-step VSA (Vacuum Swing Adsorption) system for flue gas capture. In most works, porous materials sy...

Abstract Background Robinsoniella peoriensis, an anaerobic, Gram-positive bacillus within the phylum Firmicutes and family Lachnospiraceae, is a putative commensal anaerobe of the human gut and an infrequent cause of opp...

A CO2 Direct Air Capture and Conversion (DACC) system has been designed and implemented at laboratory bench scale using up to 100 g of adsorbent material at atmospheric pressure trying to approach industrially relevant...

A crude extract rich in plant cysteine peptidases was obtained from the latex of the fruits of Araujia hortorum, a South American climbing plant. The highly concentrated extract was immobilized onto titanium dioxide to p...

"A flow injection (FI) technique based on an on-line solid phase extraction (SPE) coupled with flame atomic absorption spectroscopy (FAAS) to selectively quantify chromium (VI) in the presence of chromium (III) was devel...

The current technology for lithium extraction from brines is recognized both for its techno-economic disadvantages and its environmental impacts. We have synthesized, characterized, and evaluated particles based on lithi...

The conversion of tea twig biomass into porous activated carbon presents a sustainable pathway for mitigating CO2 emissions. This study systematically compares two thermo-chemical synthesis routes, activation-carbonizati...

Abstract Amine-functionalized solid adsorbents represent promising next-generation materials for efficient CO2 capture. However, their practical deployment is constrained by a fundamental trilemma balancing CO2 adsorptio...

This study prepared a series of NH2-MIL-125(Ti) samples (denoted as NMT-x%) by tuning the methanol fraction (20%, 30%, 40%, and 50%) in a mixed methanol/N,N-dimethylformamide (MeOH/DMF) solvent system, and investigated t...

Abstract Many DNA-based devices need to build stable and controllable DNA films on surfaces. However, the most commonly used method of film characterization, namely, the probe-like microscopes which may destroy the sampl...

Abstract The electrocatalytic CO2 reduction reaction (e-CO2RR) on Cu-based catalysts has been extensively studied; however, achieving high selectivity for C2+ products and long-term durability remains challenging. Here, ...

Abstract Zn(II) contamination in aquatic systems poses significant risks to environmental safety and public health. In this study, BaCO3/BaAl2O4/C nanocomposites, denoted BA600 and BA800, were synthesized by a facile Pec...

Pumice is a porous volcanic rock containing a significant proportion of silica and alumina, and which has a low iron content. This natural, silica-rich material attracts wide attention because of its applications in adso...
