Effects of lignocellulose structure on single fiber tensile characteristics portrayal: a case of enset fiber

Fiber-leveltensile characteristics are vital for micromechanical analysis and mechanical modellingof materials and their composites. This portrayal depends on diameter estimation accuracy, as the applied load is determined from the testing machine. Inline, natural fibers possess an internal cavity; the diameter found using microscopy denotes the external diameter which is larger than the diameter pertaining to actual load-carrying cross-section. This study presents a new approach that estimates diameter considering lignocellulose structure and hydrophilicity, thereby enabling the portrayal of more accurate tensile strength values. First, the fibers’ diameter is measured using a laser microscope, on various spots axially and the internal cavity was then considered to determine the actual diameter. Thedensity of milled fibers is measured using Pycnometry. The diameter which relates to a solid load-carryingcross-section is identified using the relationship between density, mass and volume. The experiment design was framed and analyzed using Python and JMP Pro 13. The measured density of Enset is 1.38 g/cm3. The average overestimation of microscopy result issignificant; it is 27.7μm which is about 21.8%. This underrates the actual tensile strength of Enset fiber by about 37.5%. That is σext=0.627σact. This, in turn, would affect micromechanical analyses and mechanical modelling. Thus, the need to consider lignocellulose structure for testing the tensile strength of Enset fiber is inevitable and the method utilized in this study can be used forother natural fibers of the same nature customizing the context.

Synthesis and characterization of mesoporous silicate as core and low generation polyamidoamine dendrimer as shell for delivery of 5-fluorouracil from their nano complex

Modern nanomedicine delivers drugs to malfunctioning cells. Several synthetic processes can change the shape, particle size, polydispersity index, surface area, and porosity of mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs). Polyamidoamine (PAMAM) dendrimers are attractive polymers with circular forms, uniform distribution, well-structured branching, internal cavities, and surface terminal groups. The objective of this study is to deliver 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) as passive targeting to carcinogen cells via MSN-PAMAM-G3 nanoparticles. This study involved the direct and adaptable synthesis of MSN as the core vehicle, together with third-generation PAMAM dendrimers as the vehicle shell, with the goal of delivering the 5-FU in a targeted and controllable manner. Tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) are used as templates to make the center nanoparticle. Methyl acrylate (MA) and ethylenediamine (EDA) are monomers that cause the formation of branches in PAMAM. The obtained particles were fully characterized in terms of particle size, polydispersity index, zeta potential, thermal behavior, morphology, pore diameter, pore volume, and specific surface area. The particle size of MSN-PAMAM-G3s showed around 187.71 ± 3.97 nm, with a polydispersity index of 0.17 ± 0.01 and zeta potential of 32.17 ± 1.30 mV. By reducing the ratio of drug to vehicle from 1 to 0.25, a significant increase in the EE% of 5-FU from 21.36 ± 0.70 to 43.12 ± 0.67 was observed. The release of 5-FU from the vehicle (5-FU@MSN and 5-FU@MSN-PAMAM-G3) was shown to be considerably higher in an acidic medium (pH = 5.5) in comparison to a neutral medium (pH = 7.4) (P-value<0.05). Furthermore, in both acidic and neutral conditions, 5-FU release was sustained from the vehicle rather than the 5-FU solution. Our research revealed that the MSN-PAMAM-G3 nanoparticles effectively regulated the encapsulation and release of 5-FU, providing pH-sensitive and sustained medication delivery. It is asserted that this nanocarrier has the potential to effectively deliver 5-FU to cancer cells.

Enhancing thermal efficiency in flat plate solar collectors through internal barrier optimization

This study investigates the impact of introducing horizontal barriers within the internal cavity of flat plate solar collectors on their thermal efficiency. The primary objective is to enhance thermal performance by reducing convective heat loss. An experimental test bench was constructed to evaluate five solar collectors under controlled conditions. One collector was unmodified as a reference, while the other four had 1 to 4 horizontal barriers inserted between the absorber plate and glass cover. Each collector’s efficiency was assessed by measuring inlet and outlet water temperatures, incident solar radiation, ambient temperature, and water flow rate. Efficiency versus heat loss parameter curves were generated, and correction factors were applied to account for material and sensor differences. The collector with four barriers demonstrated the highest overall thermal efficiency, achieving an efficiency improvement of up to 12 % compared to the reference collector. Specifically, the efficiency of the reference collector was around 70 %, while the collector with four barriers reached an efficiency of approximately 82 %. Introducing two barriers resulted in a 9 % increase in efficiency, bringing it to about 79 %. Conversely, the collector with three barriers showed a slight decrease in efficiency to 68 %. The barriers effectively reduced internal convective heat loss, enhancing the collector’s ability to harness incident solar radiation. Inserting horizontal barriers within the internal cavity of flat plate solar collectors significantly improves thermal efficiency by reducing convective heat loss. The optimal configuration, based on this study, involves using four barriers. This method presents a straightforward yet effective approach to enhancing solar collector performance. Future research should focus on refining barrier design and placement for different collector sizes and geometries, potentially supporting broader adoption of solar thermal energy systems and contributing to sustainable energy solutions.

Evaluation of different irrigation activation techniques for the removal of various medicaments from a simulated internal resorption cavity: an in vitro study.

This study aimed to assess the efficacy of different activation techniques in removing calcium hydroxide (Ultracal XS), Ledermix, and Bio-C Temp from simulated internal root resorption (IRR) cavities. 108 single-rooted maxillary incisors were prepared using Reciproc R50 files. Simulated IRR cavities, 2mm in diameter and located 8mm from the apex, were created. Ultracal XS, Ledermix, and Bio-C Temp were applied to the samples, grouped by irrigation activation techniques: Standard Needle Irrigation (SNI), EDDY, Passive Ultrasonic Irrigation (PUI), and XP-endo Finisher (XPF). Medicament removal efficacy was evaluated using a standardized scoring system. Statistical analysis was performed using the Kruskal-Wallis test. XPF and PUI were more effective than SNI in medicament removal across the groups, with no significant difference. EDDY showed no significant difference than other groups. Ledermix was more effectively removed in all activation groups compared to Bio-C Temp. The XPF was superior in removing Ultracal XS compared to Bio-C Temp. However, none of the groups achieved complete medicament removal. XPF and PUI techniques enhance medicament removal efficacy. Bio-C Temp was more difficult to remove from the IRR cavities than other medicaments. Bio-C Temp could be removed from the canals less effectively compared to calcium hydroxide and Ledermix. Among the tested irrigation activation methods, XPF and PUI were found to be more effective at removing the tested medicaments.

A novel “pore-carrier transfer” strategy for preparation of porous liquids toward efficient CO2 capture

Porous liquids (PLs), a novel class of materials combining porosity with fluidity, have garnered significant interests in gas capture and separation. However, current methods for preparing PLs often involve modifying porous materials to introduce new active sites or directly dispersing them into sterically hindered solvents, leading to the potential loss of sorption sites within the porous structure. Here, we propose a novel “pore-carrier transfer” strategy aimed at preserving the sorption sites of the porous host UiO-66-NH2 by incorporating a MXene carrier between UiO-66-NH2 and the sterically hindered solvent [Hmim]Br. Molecular dynamics simulations demonstrate that the introduction of MXene can effectively prevent the diffusion of [Hmim]Br into the internal cavity of UiO-66-NH2, thereby safeguarding the sorption sites. As expected, the resulting PLs exhibit enhanced CO2 sorption performance and demonstrate potential for CO2/N2 separation, which is attributed to the enhanced dissolution and sorption of CO2. Overall, this innovative approach opens up possibilities for leveraging a wide array of existing porous materials and two-dimensional materials in the development and application of new PLs. Moreover, the “pore-carrier transfer” strategy represents a promising advancement in the field of PLs synthesis, offering a pathway to enhance sorption efficiency of PLs in gas capture and separation.

Evaluation of the efficacy of different irrigation activation techniques in removing of calcium hydroxide on teeth with the simulated internal root resorption cavity: a confocal laser scanning microscope analysis.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of different irrigation activation methods on root canal sealer penetration in teeth with simulated internal root resorption (IRR) and calcium hydroxide (CH) applied using a confocal laser scanning microscope (CLSM). 60 incisors with a single root and a single canal were included in the study. IRR cavities were created in the middle third of the root canal, and CH was placed. The samples were randomly divided into 4 groups (n = 15) according to the irrigation activation method to be tested: standard needle irrigation (SNI), sonic activation (EDDY), photon-induced photoacoustic flow (PIPS), and shock wave enhanced emission photoacoustic flow (SWEEPS). After irrigation activation applications, the root canals were obturated. Sections of 1.0 ± 0.1mm were taken from the apical, middle, and coronal regions of each sample. The penetration area (µm2) and maximum penetration depth (µm) of the root canal sealer were examined by CLSM and analyzed using ImageJ software. Statistical analysis was performed with a one-way ANOVA and post-hoc Tukey test at the P < 0.05 significance level. Among all irrigation activation methods tested, both the penetration area and maximum penetration depth of the root canal sealer were greater in the coronal region than in the apical region (p < 0.05). In the IRR region, there was no difference in terms of maximum penetration depth between PIPS and SWEEPS (p > 0.05), it was highest in SWEEPS (p < 0.05). PIPS and SWEEPS were better than other irrigation activation methods in the penetration of root canal sealer in the resorption areas of teeth with IRR.

The Impact of Cyclodextrins on the Physiology of Candida boidinii: Exploring New Opportunities in the Cyclodextrin Application.

Cyclodextrins, commonly used as excipients in antifungal formulations to improve the physicochemical properties and availability of the host molecules, have not been systematically studied for their effects and bioactivity without a complex active substance. This paper evaluates the effects of various cyclodextrins on the physiology of the test organism Candida boidinii. The research examines their impact on yeast growth, viability, biofilm formation and morphological changes. Native ACD, BCD, randomly methylated α- and β-CD and quaternary ammonium α-CD and β-CD were investigated in the 0.5-12.5 mM concentration range in both static and dynamic systems. The study revealed that certain cyclodextrins exhibited notable antifungal effects (up to ~69%) in dynamic systems; however, the biofilm formation was enhanced in static systems. The magnitude of these effects was influenced by several variables, including the size of the internal cavity, the concentration and structure of the cyclodextrins, and the contact time. Furthermore, the study found that CDs exhibited distinct effects in both static and dynamic systems, potentially related to their tendency to form aggregates. The findings suggest that cyclodextrins may have the potential to act as antifungal agents or growth promoters, depending on their structure and surrounding environments.

Micro/Meso-Porous Double-Shell Hollow Carbon Spheres through Spatially Confined Pyrolysis for Supercapacitors and Zinc-Ion Capacitor.

Energy storage in supercapacitors and hybrid zinc ion capacitors (ZIC) using porous carbon materials offers a promising alternative method for clean energy solutions. The unique combination of hierarchical porous structure and nitrogen doping in these materials has demonstrated significant capacity for energy storage. Nevertheless, the full potential of these materials, particularly the relationship between pore structure configuration and performance, remains underexplored. Herein, a confined pyrolysis strategy based on the polymerization characteristics of polydopamine (PDA) was developed to construction of hollow carbon spheres with microporous/mesoporous dual shell structure. The depth of micropores and cavity can be controlled by adjusting the duration of heat treatment and hydrothermal treatment, in accordance with the decomposition and polymerization characteristics of PDA. Due to the elasticity of this structure, the relationship between the micro/mesoporous depth of the prepared carbon spheres and the energy storage performance in supercapacitors and ZIC is established. Through optimizing the ion transport capacity of carbon spheres and considering the influence of its internal cavity structure on energy storage, the resulting carbon spheres exhibit high specific capacitance of 389 F g-1 in supercapacitor and specific capacitance of 260 F g-1 and excellent stability with 99.3 % retention after 30000 chare/discharge cycles in ZIC.

Recent progress of porous cage materials in sample preparation, chromatographic separation, and detection.

Porous cage materials with certain dimensions, sizes, shapes, and functions have been regarded as promising materials for sample preparation, chromatographic separation, and detection process. In contrast to infinite frameworks such as metal-organic frameworks or covalent organic frameworks, porous cage materials are constructed from discrete molecules containing at least one internal cavity. The well-defined cavities in porous cage materials provide opportunities for non-covalent interactions. These interactions can be programmed into the ligand design or supramolecular cage constructing using the cages as building blocks, offering various host-guest recognition with great selectivity. In this review, we desire to elucidate the fundamental principles governing the design and fabrication of porous cage materials with well-defined cavities, good solvent processability, and modifiable groups, the applications of these porous cage materials in sample preparation, chromatographic separation, and detection were discussed. The recent advantages of porous cage materials for the analysis process were summarized. We state the potential of these materials and provide an outlook for further application strategies. We expect that this review can inspire interest in the porous cage materials research area for analysis.

Identification of small-molecule ligand-binding sites on and in the ARNT PAS-B domain

Transcription factors are challenging to target with small molecule inhibitors due to their structural plasticity and lack of catalytic sites. Notable exceptions include naturally ligand-regulated transcription factors, including our prior work with the HIF-2 transcription factor, showing that small molecule binding within an internal pocket of the HIF-2α PAS-B domain can disrupt its interactions with its dimerization partner, ARNT. Here, we explore the feasibility of targeting small molecules to the analogous ARNT PAS-B domain itself, potentially opening a promising route to modulate several ARNT-mediated signaling pathways. Using solution NMR fragment screening, we previously identified several compounds that bind ARNT PAS-B and, in certain cases, antagonize ARNT association with the TACC3 transcriptional coactivator. However, these ligands have only modest binding affinities, complicating characterization of their binding sites. We address this challenge by combining NMR, MD simulations, and ensemble docking to identify ligand-binding 'hotspots' on and within the ARNT PAS-B domain. Our data indicate that the two ARNT/TACC3 inhibitors, KG-548 and KG-655, bind to a β-sheet surface implicated in both HIF-2 dimerization and coactivator recruitment. Furthermore, while KG-548 binds exclusively to the β-sheet surface, KG-655 can additionally bind within a water-accessible internal cavity in ARNT PAS-B. Finally, KG-279, while not a coactivator inhibitor, exemplifies ligands that preferentially bind only to the internal cavity. All three ligands promoted ARNT PAS-B homodimerization, albeit to varying degrees. Taken together, our findings provide a comprehensive overview of ARNT PAS-B ligand-binding sites and may guide the development of more potent coactivator inhibitors for cellular and functional studies.

A dynamic thermal radiation insulation method for directional solidification of polysilicon

To simplify the structure and reduce the high energy consumption of thermal insulation structures for polysilicon directional solidification equipment, an innovative cavity structure with a mirror and diffuse reflector was designed for thermal insulation. This method uses an internal thermal radiation cavity instead of a traditional insulation layer. Compared with the traditional insulation material, its volume was only 16.6 % of the crucible volume, and the energy consumption was reduced by 8.6 %. A mathematical model of the thermal radiation exchange in the cavity was established and solved analytically. Because of the design of mirror and reflector, the self-adjustment of the thermal radiation intensity and angle in the cavity was theoretically verified. It could automatically “trail” the temperature change on the sidewalls of the melt (crucible), and the dynamic thermal compensation was equivalent to an adiabatic construction. Three comparison experiments with a large ingot (0.9 m × 0.9 m × 0.35 m) were performed. When the cavity height to width ratio was greater than 3.33, the thermal compensation was poor and the quality of the ingot is lower than that of the others. The experiments showed that refractory brick and polished brass are a good combination for creating a cavity.

Coherence sidelobe suppression of laser diode by white-noise-current modulation and external cavity feedback.

A coherence sidelobe suppression method for a laser diode (LD) is proposed, based on the white-noise-current modulation and external cavity feedback. The theoretical model of the coherence of the white-noise-current-modulated external cavity laser (WECL) is established, which details the spectrum broadening mechanism and the coherence sidelobe suppression. At the noise current modulation, the coherence sidelobe induced by the internal cavity is lowered by the external cavity feedback, and the position of the coherence sidelobe induced by the external cavity is controlled with the cavity length, which can extend the coherence range without the sidelobes. The experimental results demonstrate that the 98.4% sidelobe suppression ratio (SLSR) of the WECL is achieved in dynamic interferometry, which is about 20% higher than that of the laser diode only with the white-noise-current modulation. This new, to the best of our knowledge, method can avoid the stray fringe cross talk caused by the multiple coherence sidelobes in the surface error measurements of parallel plates.

GSH-responsive bithiophene Aza-BODIPY@HMON nanoplatform for achieving triple-synergistic photoimmunotherapy

Photoimmunotherapy represents an innovative approach to enhancing the efficiency of immunotherapy in cancer treatment. This approach involves the fusion of immunotherapy and phototherapy (encompassing techniques like photodynamic therapy (PDT) and photothermal therapy (PTT)). Boron-dipyrromethene (BODIPY) has the potential to trigger immunotherapy owing to its excellent PD and PT efficiency. However, the improvements in water solubility, bioavailability, PD/PT combined efficiency, and tumor tissue targeting of BODIPY require introduction of suitable carriers for potential practical application. Herein, a disulfide bond-based hollow mesoporous organosilica (HMON) with excellent biocompatibility and GSH-responsive degradation properties was used as a carrier to load a bithiophene Aza-BODIPY dye (B5), constructing a sample chemotherapy reagent-free B5@HMON nanoplatform achieving triple-synergistic photoimmunotherapy. HMON, involving disulfide bond, is utilized to improve water solubility, tumor tissue targeting, and PD efficiency by depleting GSH and enhancing host-guest interaction between B5 and HMO. The study reveals that HMON’s large specific surface area and porous properties significantly enhance the light collection and oxygen adsorption capacity. The HMON’s rich mesoporous structure and internal cavity achieved a loading rate of B5 at 11 %. It was found that the triple-synergistic nanoplatform triggered a stronger anti-tumor immune response, including tumor invasion, cytokine production, calreticulin translocation, and dendritic cell maturation, eliciting specific tumor-specific immunological responses in vivo and in vitro. The BALB/c mouse model with 4T1 tumors was used to assess tumor suppression efficiency in vivo, showing that almost all tumors in the B5@HMON group disappeared after 14 days. Such a simple chemotherapy reagent-free B5@HMON nanoplatform achieved triple-synergistic photoimmunotherapy.

Influences of (Al, Ca, Si, Nb, Mn)-oxy-sulfide inclusions on corrosion degradation for newly designed 17–4 martensitic PH steel in simulated geothermal environments

Influences of (Al, Ca, Si, Nb, Mn)-oxy-sulfide inclusions on hydrogen trapping and stress corrosion cracking in a newly designed 17–4 martensitic PH steel were carried out under simulated geothermal environments based on experiments and calculations. The results indicate that CaS and MnS in inclusions are not only prone to preferential dissolution, but also more likely to become hydrogen trapping sites at the interface with matrix than other components. The number of pits rapidly increase before the sample fracture at 159.25 h, while cracks around external pits and internal gourd-like cavities are probably attributed to the uneven expansion of inclusion-triggered pits.

Mechanism of phosphate release from actin filaments

After ATP-actin monomers assemble filaments, the ATP's [Formula: see text]-phosphate is hydrolyzedwithin seconds and dissociates over minutes. We used all-atom molecular dynamics simulations to sample the release of phosphate from filaments and study residues that gate release. Dissociation of phosphate from Mg2+ is rate limiting and associated with an energy barrier of 20 kcal/mol, consistent with experimental rates of phosphate release. Phosphate then diffuses within an internal cavity toward a gate formed by R177, as suggested in prior computational studies and cryo-EM structures. The gate is closed when R177 hydrogen bonds with N111 and is open when R177 forms a salt bridge with D179. Most of the time, interactions of R177 with other residues occlude the phosphate release pathway. Machine learning analysis reveals that the occluding interactions fluctuate rapidly, underscoring the secondary role of backdoor gate opening in Pi release, in contrast with the previous hypothesis that gate opening is the primary event.

Hollow Co9S8-carbon fiber hierarchical heterojunction with Schottky contacts for tunable microwave absorption

Heterogeneous interface engineering of hollow hierarchical structures with Schottky contacts is an attractive approach for designing light weight and efficient microwave absorption (MA) materials. Herein, hollow Co9S8-carbon fiber (CF) composites were prepared by solvothermal, electrostatic spinning, and pyrolysis methods. CF was used as the main chain and hollow Co9S8 derived from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) was homogeneously embedded in it, which overcame the difficulties of the traditional template method and effectively avoided the particle agglomeration problem. The interface polarization relaxation process is improved by the construction of Co9S8-CF heterojunction with Schottky contacts, which effectively modulates the dielectric loss. The internal hollow macroporous cavity and CF with lightweight properties enhance the reflection attenuation of the internal cavity. In addition, the electromagnetic characteristics can be flexibly adjusted to achieve the tunable MA performance by varying the reaction parameters. As a result, the Co9S8-CF-3–700 exhibits optimum MA performance, with a reflection loss (RL) of −60.83 dB at 10.85 GHz and a thickness of 2.76 mm. The effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) extends to 5.6 GHz at a thickness of 2.19 mm. This research provides a promising approach to creating light weight and efficient MA materials with potential applications in radar and communication systems.

Molecular self-assembled helix peptide nanotubes based on some amino acid molecules and their dipeptides: molecular modeling studies.

The paper considers the features of the structure and dipole moments of several amino acids and their dipeptides which play an important role in the formation of the peptide nanotubes based on them. The influence of the features of their chirality (left L and right D) and the alpha-helix conformations of amino acids are taken into account. In particular, amino acids with aromatic rings, such as phenylalanine (Phe/F), and branched-chain amino acids (BCAAs)-leucine (Leu/L) and isoleucine (Ile/I)-as well as corresponding dipeptides (diphenylalanine (FF), dileucine (LL), and diisoleucine (II)) are considered. The main features and properties of these dipeptide structures and peptide nanotubes (PNTs), based on them, are investigated using computational molecular modeling and quantum-chemical semi-empirical calculations. Their polar, piezoelectric, and photoelectronic properties and features are studied in detail. The results of calculations of dipole moments and polarization, as well as piezoelectric coefficients and band gap width, for different types of helical peptide nanotubes are presented. The calculated values of the chirality indices of various nanotubes are given, depending on the chirality of the initial dipeptides-the results obtained are consistent with the law of changes in the type of chirality as the hierarchy of molecular structures becomes more complex. The influence of water molecules in the internal cavity of nanotubes on their physical properties is estimated. A comparison of the results of these calculations by various computational methods with the available experimental data is presented and discussed. The main tool for molecular modeling of all studied nanostructures in this work was the HyperChem 8.01 software package. The main approach used here is the Hartree-Fock (HF) self-consistent field (SCF) with various quantum-chemical semi-empirical methods (AM1, PM3, RM1) in the restricted Hartree-Fock (RHF) and in the unrestricted Hartree-Fock (UHF) approximations. Optimization of molecular systems and the search for their optimal geometry is carried out in this work using the Polak-Ribeire algorithm (conjugate gradient method), which determines the optimized geometry at the point of their minimum total energy. For such optimized structures, dipole moments D and electronic energy levels (such as EHOMO and ELUMO), as well as the band gap Eg = ELUMO - EHOMO, were then calculated. For each optimized molecular structure, the volume was calculated using the QSAR program implemented also in the HyperChem software package.

A bioinspired switchable adhesive patch with adhesion and suction mechanisms for laparoscopic surgeries

Medical adhesives play an important role in clinical medicine because of their flexibility and convenient operation. However, they are still limited to laparoscopic surgeries, which have demonstrated urgent demand for liver retraction with minimal damage to the human body. Here, inspired by the suction cup structure of octopus, an adhesive patch with excellent mechanical properties, robust and switchable adhesiveness, and biocompatibility is proposed. The adhesive patch is combined by the attachment body mainly made of poly(acrylic acid) grafted with N-hydroxysuccinimide ester, crosslinked biodegradable gelatin methacrylate and biodegradable biopolymer gelatin to mimic the adhesive sucker rim, and the temperature-sensitive telescopic layer of microgel-crosslinked poly(N-isopropylacrylamide-co-2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) to shrink and form internal cavity with reduced pressure. Through mechanical tests, adhesion evaluation, and biocompatibility analysis, the bioinspired adhesive patch has demonstrated its capacity not only in adhesion to tissues but also in potential treatment for medical applications, especially laparoscopic technology. The bioinspired adhesive patch can break through the limitations of traditional retraction methods, and become an ideal candidate for liver retraction in laparoscopic surgery and related clinical medicine.
