Toxic Activity and Chemical Composition of Lithuanian Wormwood (Artemisiaabsinthium L.) Essential Oils [PDF]

, 2012
Toxicity tests of wild wormwood essential oils were performed using the brine shrimp (Artemia sp.) test. N auplii lethality (LC 50) ranged 15.7-31.9 µg/mL, depending on oil composition. The most toxic A.

Serine Grafted Silica Coated Nanoscale Zero‐Valent Iron with Enhanced Fenton‐Like Degradation of Mixed Organic Solvents of Tributyl Phosphate and n‐dodecane

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Serine grafted silica coated nanoscale zero‐valent iron is synthesized. Through the SiO2 coating and serine grafting, the aggregation and oxidation of nZVI are reduced, and the slow release of Fe2+ ensured the catalytic cycle. The adsorption capacity for TBP and n‐dodecane is higher, because of the synergistic effect of surface functional groups.

Char quality and tar formation interdependence: First experiments in a new two-stage gasifier [PDF]

, 2005
For small scale gasification for CHP purposes, it is of great importance that tar content in the gas remains below 10-50 mg/Nm3. Such low tar concentrations have been reported with staged gasification processes operated for long periods by TK Energi A/S (

Inhaling Eugenol Inhibits NAFLD by Activating the Hepatic Ectopic Olfactory Receptor Olfr544 and Modulating the Gut Microbiota

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inhalable eugenol (EUG) from clove oil attenuates NAFLD by activating hepatic olfactory receptor Olfr544, triggering cAMP/PKA/CREB signaling to enhance lipolysis/oxidation. EUG concurrently restores gut microbiota, enriching probiotics (L. reuteri XR23/L. johnsonii XR25) and metabolites (IPA/5‐HIAA) that suppress lipogenesis.

Photopolymerized Mixed Matrix Membranes for Liquid Organic Hydrogen Carrier Separation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Photopolymerized membranes with high metal organic framework (MOF)/Pd activated carbon loading enable selective separation of hydrogen‐rich/lean liquid organic hydrogen carriers (LOHCs) under mild operational conditions. The employed fabrication approach yields stratified, multilayer structures with enhanced aromatic/aliphatic (toluene ...

Inspired by Reinforced‐Concrete Structures: High‐Strength, Stable, Sustainable Reed‐Based Plastics

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Inspired by the structure of reinforced concrete, which develops a composite with high‐strength, stability, fire resistance, and nontoxicity, by using the regular and continuous of reed fiber and thermoset tannin‐based resin. This composite demonstrates potential as a sustainable alternative to conventional petroleum‐derived plastics, with promising ...
