Dietary fibres from cassava residue: Physicochemical and enzymatic improvement, structure and physical properties

AIP Advances, 2018
In this study, an physico-chemical method and enzymatic improvement were used to extract cassava dietary fiber from cassava residue. α-amylase, glucoamylase, lipase, and protease were added to the physically comminuted cassava residue to remove starch ...

Copper Doping Enhances the Activity and Selectivity of Atomically Precise Ag44 Nanoclusters for Photocatalytic CO2 Reduction

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
By a simple anti‐Galvanic reaction, up to six copper atoms could be preferably doped into the Ag2(SR)5 staple motifs and Ag20 dodecahedral shell of an atomically precise Ag44(SR)30 nanocluster. When anatase TiO2 is used as substrate, the (AgCu)44/TiO2 photocatalyst exhibited much improved activity in photocatalytic CO2 reduction compared to Ag44/TiO2 ...
