Nanoshell Fabrication Techniques for Probiotic Encapsulation: A Comprehensive Review
ABSTRACT Probiotics, beneficial microorganisms, confer numerous health benefits when administered. However, their efficacy is hindered by harsh gut conditions, including acidity, bile acids, and enzymatic degradation. To overcome these challenges, encapsulation and nanoshell technology have emerged as a pivotal strategy to enhance probiotic stability ...

PFAS properties and destruction methods: A focus on enzymatic degradation
Abstract Per‐ and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are known as ‘forever’ chemicals and have lasting detrimental impact on the environment and living organisms. To understand PFAS molecules better, this review begins with an overview of PFAS definition, classifications and applications, and then provides a comprehensive summary and critical analysis ...

The Effects of Ceric Ammonium Nitrate in the Oxidation of 2-Benzyl-1,4-dimethoxybenzene Derivatives
The one- or two-electron reduction in quinone compounds gives rise to semiquinones and hydroquinones, respectively, which, in turn, can be oxidized back to quinones, generating a cyclic redox system with the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS ...

Elimination of acrolein from cider by addition of sulphur dioxide
Abstract BACKGROUND Acrolein is a toxic substance that sometimes appears in ciders, imparting an unpleasant taste and odour, which spoils the beverage entirely. Based on the reaction between acrolein and sulphur dioxide to form adducts, some oenologists of the Basque Country and Navarre (Northern Spain) use sulphur dioxide to remove acrolein.

Formaldehyde Emissions From 2‐Octyl Cyanoacrylate: Quantified Risk for Allergic Contact Dermatitis
This study found that 2‐octyl cyanoacrylate skin adhesives release formaldehyde at levels up to 8.4× above EPA dermal thresholds and up to 2.41× above NIOSH airborne limits, producing exposures sufficient to provoke allergic and irritant contact dermatitis in patients.

Phenol Neurolysis in Pain and Palliative Medicine
ABSTRACT Background Pain is a common symptom in palliative care and affects patients' quality of life considerably. Standard analgesics are sometimes insufficient and are associated with substantial side effects. Neurolysis, the targeted destruction of nerves using thermal or chemical agents, offers an additional option for managing localized pain in ...

Highly uniform, multi‐porous Au–Pt Matryoshka heterostructures were synthesized via a facile galvanic replacement reaction using Au@Ag coreshells as sacrificial templates. By precisely tuning the Au/Pt composition, the catalysts were optimized for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), exhibiting outstanding efficiency and ultra‐high stability in both ...

Deciphering Small Molecule Diffusion Parameters Across Light Responsive Polymersome Membranes
Light‐responsive polymersomes bearing donor–acceptor Stenhouse adducts (DASAs) enable programmable control over small‐molecule transport across synthetic membranes. By systematically varying DASA density, an optimal functionalization regime is identified that maximizes light‐gated permeability.

A Biochar‐Based Composite Hydrogel Microenvironment for Enhanced Biocatalysis
This work presents the synthesis of a polyacrylamide hydrogel wherein biomass‐derived biochar is co‐encapsulated with the enzyme horseradish peroxidase (HRP). The resulting composite hydrogel possesses balanced electron‐rich and electron‐deficient domains, creating an optimal microenvironment that concentrates both hydrogen peroxide and phenol ...
