Photochromic Donor–Acceptor Naphthalenediimides Enabling Near‐Infrared Photothermal Conversion for Seawater Desalination

open access: yesChemistry – A European Journal, EarlyView.
Photoinduced radical formation in donor–acceptor NDI molecules generates strong near‐infrared absorption, enabling efficient photothermal conversion and solar‐driven seawater desalination. ABSTRACT Photochromic donor–acceptor molecules that produce near‐infrared (NIR) absorption upon light activation offer promising platforms for organic photothermal ...

Polymerization of Japanese cedar pollen antigen.

open access: yesNippon Jibiinkoka Gakkai Kaiho, 1987
In order the immunotherapy of Japanese cedar pollinosis to be more improved, investigations were performed to provide polymerized form of antigen. Preliminary studies have already shown that crude extract was not feasible to be polymerized with glutaraldehyde.

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Cedar Façade Flame Spread With Respect to Sidewall

open access: yesFire and Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In response to growing energy conservation and carbon neutrality efforts, façade systems incorporating wooden materials have attracted increasing attention, which in turn raises concerns about their combustibility. This study presents a combined experimental and numerical investigation of flame spread along cedar façades.

Omalizumab is Effective and Safe in the Treatment of Japanese Cedar Pollen-induced Seasonal Allergic Rhinitis

open access: yesAllergology International, 2006
Background: Seasonal allergic rhinitis (SAR) induced by Japanese cedar pollen is a substantial problem in Japan. Omalizumab, a novel humanized monoclonal anti-immunoglobulin E (IgE) antibody, has already been proven to reduce symptoms associated with SAR.

Direct extraction of functional whitened lignocellulose from wood via isocyanate modification in water–ethanol mixture

open access: yesPolymer International, EarlyView.
Direct extraction of lignocellulose from wood derivatives was achieved by introducing a bulky isocyanate substituent to lignin in a water–ethanol mixture. This process exploits the tunable solvent affinity of lignin to achieve its whitening, enabling the isolation of lignocellulose.

Effect of Fe2O3 on steam gasification of subbituminous coal/woody biomass mixture

open access: yesEnergy Science & Engineering, 2018
This study investigated the steam gasification of Indonesian Adaro coal and Japanese cedar mixed in a 1:1 ratio with the physical addition of 10 wt% Fe2O3 in 50 vol% H2O at ambient atmospheric pressure and 800°C for 1 h.

Delignification of softwood by glycerol from biodiesel by-product I: model reaction using glycerol and fatty acid sodium soap mixture for pretreatment on bioethanol production

open access: yesJournal of Wood Science, 2019
This study investigated the use of glycerol–fatty acid sodium soap mixtures to delignify woody biomass as a model for utilization of crude glycerol by-product from biodiesel manufacture. Lignin-bearing glycerol was also produced.

Multifaceted obscurity of Thismia abei (Thismiaceae): A fairy lantern with the protologue long disregarded in practice

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Tiny, leafless fairy lanterns are easily overlooked on the forest floor. Thismia abei, endemic to Japan, persists in small, unstable populations and is listed nationally as Critically Endangered. Our recent work has revealed another, less obvious form of obscurity.

Measurement of Japanese Cedar Pollen-Specific IgE in Nasal Secretions

open access: yesAllergology International, 2014
Background: : Japanese cedar pollen (JCP) is the most common allergen for seasonal allergic rhinitis in Japan. Little is known about local production of immunoglobulin (Ig)E in people with or without Japanese cedar pollinosis. The aims of this study were
