Fully Passive Electrochemical Oxygen Sensor Enabled With Organic Electrochemical Transistor

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
A wireless oxygen sensor that operates with low power without batteries, using organic electrochemical transistors (OECTs) powered by near‐field communication (NFC) is presented. The sensor combines an oxygen‐permeable membrane and a gel electrolyte to detect oxygen in air and complex liquids, making way for sustainable sensor technologies.

Integration of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and vegetables (Amaranthus hybridus and Brassica rapa pekinensis) for improved production, water use efficiency and nutrient recycling

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 2, Issue 6, Page 493-506, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Sustainable agriculture intensification is an urgent challenge in developing countries including Tanzania. One potential solution is to adopt farming systems that increase farm production by optimizing resource use efficiency, and integrated aquaculture system, which involves farming of fish and crops, is an example of such systems.

Carbonized Polymer Dots‐Based Spectrally Adaptable Photonic Microbarcodes

Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.
This study explores spectrally tunable photonics barcodes using carbonized polymer dots (CPDs) based on whispering gallery mode (WGM) photoluminescence. CPDs offer wavelength‐dependent emission from visible to near‐infrared (NIR), thereby enabling variable WGM emissions.

Effective and Practical Stereoselective Synthesis of Nutlins Precursors by Immobilization of Privileged Chiral Mono‐Amidine Catalyst

Advanced Synthesis &Catalysis, EarlyView.
Abstract A strategy for the immobilization of Johnston's Mono(AMidine) catalyst (MAM) onto polystyrene, silica and hybrid silica‐polystyrene nanoparticles is presented. The catalyst activity was evaluated in the stereoselective aza‐Henry reaction leading to the pivotal β‐amino nitroalkane precursors of the anti‐cancer agents Nutlins (with Nutlin‐3a as ...

Utilising feed effectors and automated feeders for semi‐intensive pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) production

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 2, Issue 6, Page 540-551, December 2022., 2022
Abstract Feed effectors have been suggested to improve the efficiency of plant‐based shrimp diets by increasing attractability and palatability. This research trial aimed to expand upon previous Pacific white shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) research involving plant‐based diets, feed effectors and passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) in a laboratory setting ...
