Ionic-liquid-Assisted Fabrication of Lignocellulosic Thin Films with Tunable Hydrophobicity

, 2022
Thin films with enhanced water repellency and mechanical strength can be fabricated from renewable lignocellulosic feedstock as a replacement for petrochemical-derived synthetic polymers, such that it minimizes life cycle impact on the environment and ...

Establishing an assay to evaluate d‐amino acid oxidase enzyme kinetics and inhibition using WST‐8 redox dye

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
This study investigated a novel WST‐8‐based assay for evaluating d‐Amino acid oxidase (DAO) inhibitors. We confirmed its effectiveness using known inhibitors and found that uremic toxins possess relatively weak inhibitory activity compared to existing drugs.

A Facilitate Process to Prepare Hydrophilic Ionic Liquid Monomers Free Of Halide Impurity and Their Electrochemical Properties.

International Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2013
A facilitate and halide-free process to prepare ionic liquid monomers with various anions was developed with dialkylsulphate as the alkylating agent. The results imply that the process was efficient to prepare ionic liquid monomers for poly ionic liquids

Ionic Liquids and Catalysis

Journal of the Brazilian Chemical Society, 2014
This paper explores the growing number of publications concerning the use of ionic liquids (ILs) in the period from 1994 to 2013. Catalysis can be identified as the area responsible for the surge of interest in ILs. The same is true for the Brazilian scientific community.

Evolutionarily divergent DUF4465 domains have a common vitamin B12‐binding function

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We show that DUF4465 family proteins, widespread across bacteria from gut microbiomes, hydrothermal vents, and soil, share a common vitamin B12‐binding function. These augmented β‐jellyroll proteins bind vitamin B12 via extended loops. Our findings establish sequence‐diverse DUF4465 proteins as a widespread class of B12‐binding proteins, highlighting ...

Systemic dysregulation of apolipoproteins in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis serum

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) is a fatal disease that damages motor neurons. This study found that people with ALS show significant changes in blood fats and the proteins that carry them. Several apolipoproteins were higher, lipid balances were altered, and normal protein–lipid relationships were disrupted.

Acidic depolymerization vs ionic liquid solubilization in lignin extraction from eucalyptus wood using the protic ionic liquid 1-methylimidazolium chloride

, 2020
Protic ionic liquids have been proposed as effective solvents for the selective extraction of lignin from wood. In this work, the protic ionic liquid 1-methylimidazolium chloride has been used to extract lignin at different biomass loadings, temperatures,
