Effects of LED treatments on the growth and nutritional content of lettuce (Lactuca sativa) in a hydroponic vertical farming system

Introduction: LED-integrated hydroponic vertical farming system (HVFS) may address food security challenges arising from urbanisation, while antioxidants in vegetables may prevent cardiovascular disease. This study aimed to explore the LED effects on yield, antioxidant properties, and vitamin C content in Butterhead lettuce (BL) and Italian lettuce (IL). Methods: Three LED combinations were used: 77% red, 14% green, and 9% blue lights (77R:14G:9B); 7% red, 41% green, and 52% blue lights (7R:41G:52B); and 25% red, 67% green, and 8% blue lights (25R:67G:8B). The concentration and pH of nutrient solution in HVFS ranged from 0.878-2.061ppm and 6.0-6.6, respectively, with a 12:12 light-dark cycle. Chlorophyll and anthocyanin contents were measured using chlorophyll and anthocyanin meters, respectively. Total phenolic and vitamin C content were measured using Folin-Ciocalteu colorimetric assay. Total flavonoid and antioxidant activity were determined through aluminium chloride colorimetric assay and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) colorimetric assay, respectively. Completely randomised design was adapted with three replications. Results: BL exhibited greater yield, anthocyanin and chlorophyll contents, while IL had higher vitamin C content. Significantly (p<0.001) higher yields were produced under 77R:14G:9B and 25R:67G:8B. Significantly higher phenolic (p<0.001) and flavonoid (p=0.003) contents were produced under 25R:67G:8B. Vitamin C was significantly (p=0.037) higher under 25R:67G:8B than 7R:41G:52B. Conclusion: LED treatment with higher proportion of red light generated greater yield, whereas higher proportion of green light gave higher phenolic, flavonoids, and vitamin C accumulation. This study provided preliminary data on boosting crop yield and phytochemical contents, which may improve food self-production and population health.

Elimination of Trace Tetracycline with Alkyl Modified MIL-101 in Water.

The overuse of antibiotics poses a serious threat to human health and ecosystems. Therefore, the development of high-performance antibiotic removal materials has attracted increasing attention. However, the adsorption and removal of trace amounts of antibiotics in aqueous systems still face significant challenges. Taking tetracycline (TC) as a representative antibiotic and based on its structural characteristics, a series of TC adsorbents are prepared by grafting alkyl groups to the framework of MIL-101(Cr). The adsorptive capacity of the modified materials for tetracycline markedly surpasses that of MIL-101(Cr), with MIL-101-dod achieving the best adsorption performance. MIL-101-dod demonstrated an outstanding ability to adsorb tetracycline at low concentrations, where a 5.0mg sample of MIL-101-dod can reduce the concentration of a 90mL 5ppm tetracycline solution to below 1 ppb, significantly superior to other sorbents. XPS and IR tests indicate that MIL-101-dod has multiple weak interactions with tetracycline molecules, including C─H…O and C─H…π. This work provides theoretical and experimental support for the development of adsorbents for low-concentration antibiotics.

Development of Fly Ash-Based Geopolymer Lightweight Aggregates

This research delves into the utilization of microwave hybrid heating as a curing technique for producing fine aggregates from fly ash. Various concentrations of alkali activator solutions were employed as binders to pelletize the fly ash (ranging from 0% to 10%). The resultant green fly ash-based geopolymer (FAG) aggregates were subjected to a 15-minute microwave kiln treatment. The microwave-sintered FAG fine aggregates, varying in sizes from 0.60 to 2.36 mm, were then utilized to fabricate 50 mm cubic cement mortar samples. Findings indicated that the density of FAG aggregates was approximately 36% lower than that of natural sand, while the water absorption capacity of FAG aggregates exhibited a fivefold increase compared to natural sand. Notably, cement mortar samples made with FAG aggregate of 4% alkali activator exhibited maximum compressive strengths of 31, 37, and 42 MPa at 7, 14, and 28 days of curing, respectively. These compressive strengths were only 12% lower than those of cement mortars made with natural sand across all curing periods. The use of microwave hybrid heating to transform fly ash into aggregates with sufficient strength appears viable, suggesting that these manufactured FAG aggregates could serve as substitutes for natural aggregates in concrete production

Photocatalytic degradation of Alizarin Red contaminant using Ag2CrO4@NiFe-LDH composite under visible light irradiation.

In this study, Ag2CrO4@NiFe-LDH nanoparticles were synthesized by hydrothermal method for photocatalytic degradation of Alizarin Red (AR) dye. Three composites with different molar percentages were prepared, among which 50%Ag2CrO4@50%NiFe-LDH composite was the best sample with a removal rate of 97.1% in AR degradation. Also, the properties, structure, and characteristics of pure Ag2CrO4 and NiFe-LDH and their composites were determined by XRD, FESEM, FTIR, EDX mapping, and UV-visible analyses. It was found that Ag2CrO4@NiFe-LDH composites with the formation of heterogeneous structure of Z-scheme, in addition to increasing the active sites and increasing the specific surface, decrease the recombination rate of pure Ag2CrO4 and NiFe-LDH. Also, the Box-Behnken design technique, which is one of the most common designs used in response surface methodology, was used to optimize the operating conditions and investigate the effect of 4 independent parameters: catalyst amount, solution concentration, pH, and light intensity. The importance of independent parameters and their interactions were determined by ANOVA. By means of numerical optimization, the optimal values of the selected parameters equal to 1.34 g/L of catalyst, concentration of 16.45 mg/L, pH = 10.74, and light intensity of 15.53 W were obtained as optimal conditions with a desirability coefficient of 1.00 and an absorption value of 89.34%. The closeness of adjusted R2 (0.9838) and predicted R2 (0.9507) values show that this model can be successfully used for prediction.

Sensory Profile of Candied Tomatodates Using the Just About Right Method

Candied tomato dates are processed candies made from tomatoes that are dried until they are shaped like dates. Sensory profiles are needed to obtain candied date tomatoes with the most optimal betel lime solution concentration treatment and blanching time based on penalty analysis methods (JAR and hedonic scales). This study used the just about right method combined with the hedonic scale (overall liking) in the treatment of candied date tomatoes with a concentration of betel lime solution (2%, 3% and 4% (b/b)) and blanching time (5 minutes, 10 minutes and 15 minutes). There are 17 sensory attributes that will be tested through the assessment of the JAR scale and the hedonic scale (overall liking). The data obtained was then processed using XLSTAT 2024 software. Based on the results of the penalty analysis, it was shown that the most optimal candied date tomatoes were candied date tomatoes with a concentration treatment of 3% betel lime solution and a blanching time of 15 minutes where there were 14 insignificant test attributes or p-value≥0.05. Meanwhile, there are only 3 sensory attributes that need to be optimized or p-value˂0.05, namely juicy texture (p-value = 0.002), sweet taste (p-value = <0.0001) and fruity taste (p-value = 0.017).

Research on the process of preparing fiber filtration membrane by centrifugal blowing electrospinning technology

AbstractCurrently, the problem of air pollution is getting more and more serious, especially the pollution of tiny solid particles (PM, particulate matter) in the air, which poses a great challenge to the environment and human health. Therefore, it is particularly important to develop air filtration materials with high filtration efficiency and low resistance to meet this challenge. In this study, we propose to prepare air filtration membranes by centrifugal jet electrospinning technology, design multifactorial orthogonal coupling experiments, and investigate the effects of key process parameters of centrifugal jet electrostatic spinning, including solution concentration, airflow rate, rotational speed, and voltage, on the fiber diameter and uniformity by applying the polar analysis of variance and analysis of variance. PAN‐BaTiO3 electret nanofiber filtration membranes with high efficiency and low resistance were prepared by combining the optimized process of centrifugal blowing electrospinning. Various characterization methods (tensile test, water contact angle test, surface charge test, filtration test) were used to evaluate the effect of different BaTiO3 electret contents (0%, 0.1%, 0.5%, 1%) on the comprehensive performance of the filtration membranes, and the electret filtration efficiency of the electret filtration membranes prepared by the present process reached as high as 96.56% with a pressure drop of 29 Pa.

Room-temperature mL-to-μL quantitative liquid concentration device for cyclone flow.

Highly sensitive quantitative analysis of liquids is required in various fields. Analytical instruments and devices such as chromatography, spectroscopic analysis, DNA sequencers, immunoassay, mass spectrometry, and microfluidic devices are utilized for this purpose. Typically, the sample volume is at the milliliter scale, while the analysis volume is at the microliter scale. Consequently, most of the sample is discarded. Therefore, a universal volume interface is required to quantitatively concentrate samples from milliliter to microliter volume. This study introduces a liquid quantitative function to the cyclone concentration method using a millimeter-scale channel, which is highly suitable for controlling liquids at the microliter scale due to its high fluidic resistance against cyclone flow. This method enables the effective control of liquid concentration by cyclone flow. The optimum channel structure is investigated, and a 33-fold concentration of aqueous solutions is demonstrated. Finally, the concentration device is applied to measure molybdenum ions in a river.

De Novo Design and Characterization of Amphiphilic Peptides with Basic Side Chains for Tailored Interfacial Chemistries.

Lysine-leucine (LK) peptides have been used as model systems and platforms for 2D material design for decades. LK peptides are amphiphilic sequences designed to bind and fold at hydrophobic surfaces through hydrophobic leucine side chains and hydrophilic lysine side chains extending into the aqueous subphase. The hydrophobic periodicity of the sequence dictates the secondary structure at the interface. This robust design makes them ideal candidates for controlling interfacial chemistry. This study presents the de novo design and characterization of two novel peptides: LRα14 and LHα14, which substitute lysine with arginine and histidine, respectively, in the helical LKα14 sequence. This modification is intended to expand the LK peptide platform to a new basic interfacial chemistry. We explore the stability of the new LRα14 and LHα14 designs with respect to changes in pH and salt concentration in bulk solution and at the interface using circular dichroism (UV-CD) and vibrational sum-frequency generation spectroscopy, respectively. Notably, the structural stability of the peptides remains unaffected across a wide range of pH and ionic strength values. At the same time, the variation of side-chain chemistry leads to a wide spectrum of interfacial water structures. By extension of the LK platform to include arginine and histidine, this study broadens the toolbox for designing tailored interfacial chemistries with applications in material and biomedical sciences.

Electrospun Polymeric Fiber Systems Inoculated with Cyanoacrylate Tissue Adhesive: A Novel Hemostatic Alternative during Open Surgery

Natural-based and synthetic tissue adhesives have attracted extensive attention in the last two decades for their ability to stabilize uncontrolled bleeding instances. However; these materials present several drawbacks during use that scientists have tried to minimize in order to optimize their usage. This study comprises the development of a novel wound dressing, combining the excellent properties of polylactic acid (PLA) non-woven textile, as substrate, obtained through electrospinning, and a cyanoacrylate-based (CA) tissue adhesive, for rapid hemostatic action. Thus, the fabrication of electrospun PLA membranes at three different PLA concentrations, the design and manufacturing of the support system and the production of surgical patches were carried out. SEM and FT-IR methods were employed for analyzing the morphology as well as the indicative markers for the shelf life evolution of the obtained patches. PLA fibers with well-defined structures and a mean diameter varying between 4.6 and 7.24 μm were obtained with the increase of the concentration of the PLA solutions. In vivo tests on a rat model as well as peeling tests for good patch adhesion on liver fragments harvested from the test animals, with a limit for the strength of the liver tissue of 1.5 N, were carried out. The devices exhibited excellent adhesion to the parenchymal tissue and a long enough shelf life to be used with success in surgical procedures, also facilitating prompt hemostatic action.

Snapshot computational spectroscopy enabled by deep learning

Abstract Spectroscopy is a technique that analyzes the interaction between matter and light as a function of wavelength. It is the most convenient method for obtaining qualitative and quantitative information about an unknown sample with reasonable accuracy. However, traditional spectroscopy is reliant on bulky and expensive spectrometers, while emerging applications of portable, low-cost and lightweight sensing and imaging necessitate the development of miniaturized spectrometers. In this study, we have developed a computational spectroscopy method that can provide single-shot operation, sub-nanometer spectral resolution, and direct materials characterization. This method is enabled by a metasurface integrated computational spectrometer and deep learning algorithms. The identification of critical parameters of optical cavities and chemical solutions is demonstrated through the application of the method, with an average spectral reconstruction accuracy of 0.4 nm and an actual measurement error of 0.32 nm. The mean square errors for the characterization of cavity length and solution concentration are 0.53 % and 1.21 %, respectively. Consequently, computational spectroscopy can achieve the same level of spectral accuracy as traditional spectroscopy while providing convenient, rapid material characterization in a variety of scenarios.

Effects of chemical solution components on the contact angle of typical minerals in soil: quartz, orthoclase and plagioclase.

Different chemical solutions can significantly change the contact angle (CA) of soil, but few studies have studied the change rule and action mechanism of the CA from the mineral composition of soil essence. In unsaturated soil mechanics, the CA is an important parameter to calculate the wet suction between soil particles in unsaturated soil. When the chemical composition of the soil pore liquid changes, the CA will also change, which will affect the wet suction and other parameters, thus changing the macroscopic mechanical properties of the soil. In this study, the CA of air-solution-mineral phases with different solution components (pH, type and concentration of salt solution) of different minerals (quartz, orthoclase and plagioclase) were measured. The results show that the CAs of quartz, orthoclase and plagioclase all rise first and then drop with the rise of pH. The peak CAs are pH = 5, pH = 4 and pH = 3, respectively. Quartz, orthoclase and plagioclase all have valley values in different concentrations of NaCl and KCl solutions. In CaCl2 solution, only quartz has valley value, while orthoclase and plagioclase increase monotonously. Quartz in soil plays a main role in the influence of soil CA, followed by orthoclase and plagioclase. The CA of different minerals in different chemical solutions is mainly controlled by electric double layer interaction and functional groups interaction. In different salt solution environment, in addition to the above two effects, the mineral CA is also affected by the surface tension.

Development of a Stable Lyophilized Cyclophosphamide Monohydrate Formulation Using Non-Aqueous Solvents.

To ensure product stability, it is critical to maintain the monohydrate state of cyclophosphamide following lyophilization, as this is the most stable solid form of the Cyclophosphamide. On the other hand, because of their limited aqueous solubility and stability, non-aqueous solvents are preferred for determining the composition and stability of bulk solutions. Hence, the purpose of this study was to use non-aqueous solvents for determining the composition and stability of bulk solutions, and to shorten the lyophilization process by retaining the cyclophosphamide monohydrate. Furthermore, prior to selecting the solvent for the bulk solution consisting of 90:10 tertiary butyl alcohol (TBA) and acetonitrile (ACN), various factors were taken into account, including the freezing point, vapor pressure of solvents, solubility, and stability of cyclophosphamide monohydrate. The concentration of the bulk solution was adjusted to 200mg/mL in order to optimize the fill volume, enhance sublimation rates at lower temperatures during primary drying, and eliminate the need for secondary drying. The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements of bulk solution were used to improve the lyophilization cycle. The lyophilization cycle opted was freezing at a temperature of -55°C with annealing step at -22°C by which the reconstitution time was significantly reduced. The drying was performed at below - 25°C while maintaining a chamber pressure of 300 mTorr. The complete removal of non-aqueous solvents was achieved by retaining water within the system. The presence of cyclophosphamide monohydrate was confirmed using X-ray diffraction (XRD). The reduction of lyophilization process time was established by conducting mass transfer tests and evaluating the physicochemical properties of the pharmaceutical product. Using non-aqueous solvents for freeze-drying cyclophosphamide is a viable option, and this study provides significant knowledge for the advancement of future generic pharmaceuticals.

Importance of brassinosteroid in soybean yield

The aim of the present study was identify the effects of brassinolide plant regulator in soybean plants yield. The work was carried out at Olhos d’água farm located in Ipameri, Goiás, Brazil. It was used the Pioneer TEC 7022 IPRO with six brassinolide concentrations (0, 0.025, 0.050, 0.075, 0.1 and 0.125 ml L-1) of a pre-prepared solution and pulverized with a 100 L ha-1 flow rate. The applications were executed in R3 and R6 stages. The experiment was carried out following the completely randomized design with five replications. Each experimental plot was set up with 18x222 meters, with 0.5 meters between lines and 11 plants per linear meter. The brassinolide applications in R3 and R6 stages with 0.072 ml L-1 concentration increased the yield in 25.1%. Brassinolide increase the grains sink-source relationship and change the assimilates partition to reproductive development (pods number, grain number, grain weight per plant and yield) instead of vegetative growth, without compromising absorption of soil solution.

Effects of wet carbonation with ethanol solution on the mechanical, durability properties, and microstructure of recycled concrete aggregates and derived block products

The carbonation treatment of recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) can significantly enhance their properties and reusability. To improve carbonation efficiency, a wet cyclic carbonation method using ethanol solution was proposed to treat RCA and a wet carbon curing method was applied to its product, recycled blocks (RB). The results showed that wet carbonation with 30 % ethanol solution for 10 min significantly reduced RCA’s water absorption and crushing index and increased its apparent density. This is attributed to ethanol’s high carbon-solubilizing properties, which allow the RCA to generate more calcium carbonate precipitates to fill the voids and optimize the pore structure. When the concentration of ethanol solution was increased above 50 %, the improvement was inefficient and limited. In addition, the second cycle of wet carbonation can further improve the properties of RCA. Optimally processed RCA was used to make recycled masonry blocks. The 10 min wet carbonation curing proved beneficial to the mechanical properties of RB and also improved its resistance to shrinkage and salt freeze-thaw. This rapid method enhances RCA construction materials' performance and durability, improving industrial use in sustainable construction materials.

Parametric analysis of reverse electrodialysis process for improved power generation: Influence of spacer thickness, feed solution flow rate, membrane, and concentration

Reverse electrodialysis (RED) technology produces electrical energy from a salinity gradient by transporting ions through ion-exchange membranes (IEM). Although research into this technology has recently seen considerable growth, there is still interest in improving its efficiency. As a result, a mathematical model to study the RED process was developed using Aspen Custom Modeler software, focusing on three membranes (Fumasep (FAD/FKD), Fujifilm Type 10, and Selemion (AMV/CMV)). A parametric analysis was conducted, considering spacer thickness, salinity gradient, and feed-solution flow rates. Evaluation of internal resistance, gross power density, and net power density was also performed. Results showed that using a thicker spacer (270 μm) in the high compartment and a thinner spacer (150 μm) with a high Reynolds number in the low compartment led to higher net power densities of 2.17 W·mcp−2 and 6.74 W·mcp−2 for Fumasep (FAD/FKD) membrane with (brackish/seawater) and (brackish/brine), respectively. Among the membranes tested, Fumasep (FAD/FKD) and Fujifilm Type 10 had similar results, with the former slightly exceeding the latter. However, the Selemion membrane (AMV/CMV) performed poorly in all tests.

Chitosan-based bilayer shell phase change nano-capsules with excellent anti-permeability for thermal regulation dressings

Nano-encapsulated phase change materials (NEPCMs) with appropriate phase change temperature range and excellent anti-permeability have significant application value in the field of thermal regulation dressings. In this study, NEPCMs were synthesized using the microemulsion polymerization method, with eutectic fatty acids (LA-SA) as the core material and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) as the shell material. Subsequently, using the electrostatic adsorption method, chitosan (CS) was successfully coated onto the outer surface of NEPCMs, resulting in the preparation of a novel bilayer shell nano-encapsulated phase change materials (BS-NEPCMs) for thermal regulation dressings. The impact of core/shell ratio, CS acid solution concentration and cross-linking agent content on capsule properties was investigated. It was found that BS-NEPCMs exhibited excellent cyclical stability and thermal stability. In particular, the CS shell layer provided excellent interfacial impermeability effects for the capsules, achieving an anti-permeability efficiency of 96.21 %. This not only helps address the problem of high leakage rates in single wall capsules, but also ensures that the capsules maintain high phase change enthalpies of 99.32 J/g and 96.38 J/g, respectively. The dressings based on BS-NEPCMs demonstrated good thermal regulation at 33–42 °C with maximum phase change enthalpies of 39.53 J/g and 34.08 J/g, respectively. Swelling and rheological analysis showed that the dressing exhibits a gel state, with a swelling ratio of 343 %, an elastic modulus of 15 kPa and a viscous modulus of 4 kPa. This study indicated that BS-NEPCMs hold significant promise for various applications in energy storage and body thermal regulation fields.

Numerical investigation on thermal management performance of soft packing Li-ion batteries with oblique multi-channel cold plates

During the driving process of electric vehicles (EVs), the continuous high-rate discharge of the power battery causes significant heat accumulation. An efficient battery thermal management system (BTMS) is critical for the safe and stable operation of EVs. In this study, an oblique channel cold plate (OCCP) is designed based on the traditional straight channel cold plate (SCCP) in order to addresses the problem of excessive and uneven temperatures during the high-rate discharge of soft packing lithium-ion batteries. Effects of glycol solution concentration, coolant mass flow rate, coolant inlet temperature, oblique angle for cooling channel, ambient temperature and discharge rate for the cell on the performance characteristics of BTMS, including the cooling efficiency (φ) and pressure drop (ΔP), are analyzed numerically with Ansys Fluent software. The results show that the OCCP has better cooling performance and lower pressure loss than the SCCP. Based on the analysis with the orthogonal design method, when the glycol solution concentration is 20 %, the mass flow rate is 1.0 g/s, and the inlet temperature is 25 °C, the BTMS with SCCP could obtain the optimal performance, corresponding to that the maximum temperature (Tmax) of the battery is controlled at 32.056 °C, while the φ is 0.581, and the ΔP across the cold plate is 52.652 Pa. Furthermore, the cooling efficiency φ of the cold plate decreases with the increase in the oblique angle. When the ambient temperature is 35 °C, the OCCP with a 20° oblique angle provides the best cooling effect for the battery during a 10C discharge. This work is helpful for the design of liquid cold plates in BTMS under high-rate discharge conditions for power battery of EVs.

Valorization of lignin-rich solid residues from different eucalyptus wood conversion processes as oil structurants via electrospinning

The growing demand for sustainable materials has been driving research towards the use of biopolymers from natural resources. This study explores the valorization of lignin-rich solid residues derived from different eucalyptus wood conversion processes, specifically autohydrolysis (AHL), steam-explosion (SEL), and kraft pulping (EKL), via electrospinning. The potential of these electrospun nanostructures as eco-friendly oil structurant is investigated for lubricant applications. Solutions of AHL, SEL, and EKL fractions in a 3:1 v/v trifluoroacetic acid (TFA)/N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) binary solvent were prepared at concentrations of 0.015, 0.03, and 0.05 g/mL. AHL and SEL samples exhibited superior spinnability due to higher carbohydrate content and molecular weight and lower ash content. Increasing the solution concentration to 0.05 g/mL resulted in the consecution of larger average fiber diameters (up to 0.44 and 0.39 μm, for AHL and SEL, respectively) and reduced bead formation. Stable oleo-dispersions were achieved solely with electrospun homogeneous nanofiber mats, while nanostructures predominantly composed of electrosprayed particles, like those obtained with EKL produced physically unstable dispersions from which the oil readily separates. The rheological response and microstructure of oleo-dispersions were significantly affected by both the conversion process of eucalyptus wood and the spinning solution concentration. The rheological properties of the oleo-dispersions can be tailored by modifying the spinning solution concentration, with G′ values ranging from 5·102 to 5·104 Pa and consistency and flow indices roughly ranging from 90 to 990 Pa sn and from 0.06 to 0.19, respectively, depending on the nature of the lignin-rich fraction and the type of electrospun nanostructure employed. These results highlight the potential of electrospun nanostructures obtained from lignin-rich solid residues in advanced materials applications, promoting the valorization of waste streams derived from different biorefinery processes, as well as the development of novel environmentally friendly lubricants.

Prediction of CO2 solubility in aqueous amine solutions using machine learning method

In this study, a quantitative structure–property relationship (QSPR) model has been designed based on machine learning (ML) to offer a new method to accurately predict carbon dioxide (CO2) solubility in aqueous amine solutions. Molecular descriptors are used to denote representative features of the amine molecular structure supplemented with amine solution concentration, CO2 partial pressure, and temperature as inputs to the model. The coefficient of determination (R2) of the well-trained ML model reaches 0.971, and the average absolute deviation (AAD) of independent experimental validation is 4.785 %, effectively demonstrating the model’s reliability and generalization performance. Finally, SHapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP) is adopted to reveal the contribution of different features to the model predictions, making the model more transparent and interpretable. Overall work provides a novel, low-cost, efficient method to predict equilibrium CO2 solubility in aqueous amine solution and offers a new perspective in developing advanced amine for CO2 capture.
