AB  - Maple syrup, a popular natural sweetener has a high content of sucrose, whose consumption is linked to different health issues such as obesity and diabetes. Hence, within this paper, the conversion of sucrose to prebiotics (fructo-oligosaccharides, FOS) was proposed as a promising approach to obtaining a healthier, value-added product. Enzymatic conversion was optimized with respect to key experimental factors, and thereafter derived immobilized preparation of fructosyltransferase (FTase) from Pectinex® Ultra SP-L (FTase-epoxy Purolite, 255 IU/g support) was successfully utilized to produce novel functional product in ten consecutive reaction cycles. The product, obtained under optimal conditions (60 ◦C, 7.65 IU/mL, 12 h), resulted in 56.0% FOS, 16.7% sucrose, and 27.3% monosaccharides of total carbohydrates, leading to a 1.6-fold reduction in caloric content. The obtained products` prebiotic potential toward the probiotic strain Lactobacillus plantarum 299v was demonstrated. The changes in physico-chemical and sensorial characteristics were esteemed as negligible.

AB  - Providing structural information on drug-like compounds is a significant step in efforts to develop innovative drugs with balanced solubility, cell permeability and target binding. In this paper, a new cyclohexane-5-spirohydantoin tethered with a 4‑tert-butylbenzoyl group was synthesized and its crystal structure was determined using the single crystal X-ray diffraction. The Hirshfeld surface analysis was used to gain a preliminary insight into the proportion and nature of the intermolecular interactions in the crystal structure, while their quantitative description is further presented in terms of a systematic analysis of dimeric motifs representing different recognition modes. A combination of N–H∙∙∙O and C(sp3)–H∙∙∙O hydrogen bonds, C(sp3)–H∙∙∙π, lone-pair∙∙∙π and π∙∙∙π stacking interactions links the molecules into a bilayer having two carbonyl O atoms exposed to the exterior. Further stacking of the bilayers occurs through C(sp3)–H∙∙∙O hydrogen bonds involving these O atoms as acceptors, C(sp3)–H∙∙∙π and π∙∙∙π stacking interactions between the phenyl groups. The molecular electrostatic potential surface map reveals that the carbonyl O atoms of the hydantoin ring and the phenyl ring are electrophilic centers, while the N1–H1 group is a nucleophilic center. The calculated HOMO and LUMO energies were used to semiquantitatively estimate the global reactivity descriptors suggesting the soft nature of the molecule.

AB  - The implementation of the liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC) technology for efficient energy storage requires the development of a reliable kinetic model for both hydrogenation and dehydrogenation processes. In this research study, the catalytic hydrocarbon saturation for a dibenzyltoluene (DBT) mixture solution, containing dibenzylbenzene (DBB), dibenzylethylbenzene (DBEB) and impurities has been performed in the presence of Ru/Al2O3 particles. The influence of different reaction conditions, such as temperature, pressure, initial reactant concentration, catalyst amount and stirring speed has been examined. A measurement-based system micro-kinetics, based on the Langmuir–Hinshelwood mechanism with dissociative H2 surface adsorption, has been derived. H2 thermodynamic solubility equilibrium was defined through Henry's law. The adsorbing, desorption and reactivity of inert solvent molecules was not considered to be relevant. The mass transfer resistance over 1000 rpm stirring speed was negligible. Relative- and mean squared error of representation were 40.9% and 1.00×10−4, respectively. Expressions gave an excellent data prediction for the profile period trends with a relatively accurate estimation of H2 intermediates' rate selectivity, H2-covered area approximation and pathway rate-determining steps. Due to the lack of commercially available standard chemical compounds for quantitative analysis techniques, a novel experiment-based numerical calibration method was developed. Mean field (micro)kinetics represent an advancement in the mesoscale mechanistic understanding of physical interface phenomena. This also enables catalysis structure–activity relationships, unlocking the methodology for new LOHC reaching beyond traditional, such as ammonia, methanol and formate, which do not release H2 alone. Integrated multiscale simulations could include fluidics later on.

AB  - This study focuses on the development of bioactive materials using environmentally friendly techniques, renewable, biocompatible, and biodegradable polysaccharide, as well as natural bioactive compounds (NBCs) found in plant extracts. First, cornstarch aerogels with a porosity of 86 % and a specific surface area of 225 m2/g were produced via supercritical CO2- assisted drying. Further, thymol, citronellol, carvacrol, and eugenol were incorporated into the aerogels by supercritical CO2- assisted impregnation, which allowed variation in loadings of NBCs (12.8–17.6 %). Interaction between cornstarch aerogels and NBCs determined impregnation rate, pore wall thickness (in the range 18–95 nm), liquid absorption capacity (from 265 to 569 %), dehydration mass loss, and release in phosphate-buffered saline. Controlled release of NBCs was maintained over a 3-day period. Moreover, impregnated aerogels showed a significant antioxidant effect with the highest value for DPPH radical inhibition of 25.5 % determined for the aerogels impregnated with eugenol. Notable antimicrobial activity against tested Gram-negative bacteria, Gram-positive bacteria, and fungi was also observed, being the highest for thymol-loaded aerogel with the diameter of the inhibition zones of up to 37.5 mm. This work shows a promising green approach for the production of bioactive two-component starch-based materials for potential applications in skin infection treatment.

AB  - Pesticides used in coffee cultivation may remain behind and pose a risk to humans even after various processing stages of coffee beans (washing, drying, roasting, and grinding). In addition to pesticides applied to battle pests and diseases, mepiquat formation occurs during roasting. A comprehensive LC-MS/MS and GC-MS/MS multi-residue screening approach to determine pesticides in coffee was used in this study. Residues were extracted using the QuEChERS method and analyzed using multiple reaction monitoring (MRM) mass spectrometry after chromatographic separations. Good linearity (r2˃0.9919), recovery (80.2–118%), and RSD (≤19%) were obtained for the procedure including sample preparation and both instrumental techniques. Nine residues were identified as commonly present in coffee samples collected from supermarkets in Serbia. The human intake risk of pesticides was categorized and prioritized using the matrix ranking scheme. Also, health risk assessment was conducted by calculating acute and chronic hazard indices. Multi-residues were present in 79.2% of samples, whereas mepiquat chloride (88.9%) and permethrin (81.9%) were the most detected residues. Risk ranking classified mepiquat chloride, permethrin, and methiocarb sulfone in a high-risk group. On the other hand, the human health risk assessment indicated no risks in the short- and long-term and no cumulative chronic risk.

AB  - Nowadays, exopolysaccharides (EPS) produced from bacterial cells are manufactured for their use in different industries in the world, mainly in the food, pharmaceutical, and wastewater industries. The characteristics of EPS, such as being biodegradable, safe, high adsorption capacity, and reusable, make them significant and potential applications in the purification of contaminated water of heavy metals. In this study, the possible application in biosorption Ni2+ ions from contaminated water was assessed using this exopolysaccharide as a biosorbent. The new exopolysaccharide from the bacterial strain K. oxytoca J7 was extracted, isolated, and characterized using SEM, FTIR, XRD, TGA/DTG, and MALDI-TOF MS analysis. Likewise, the cytotoxic activity was performed for EPS from K. oxytoca J7 strain. The aim of this study was to investigate the possible application of non-toxic exopolysaccharide in the purification of contaminated water by removing Ni2+ ions. The results obtained from the biosorption study showed that the Langmuir model is well suited to describe the adsorption process of Ni2+ ions by EPS from K. oxytoca J7, with a maximum adsorption capacity of 269.97 mg g–1. The importance of this study is the possible use of natural nontoxic exopolysaccharide extracted from the pathogen microorganism, K. oxytoca J7, for the removal of Ni2+ ions from the contaminated water.

AB  - This paper outlines a novel simple protocol for tuning the structure and properties of jute using sodium periodate (NaIO4) oxidation and coating with alginate. When compared to the raw jute, fabrics oxidized with a 0.2 or 0.4 % NaIO4 solution for 30–120 min exhibited an increased aldehyde group content (0.185 vs. 0.239–0.398 mmol/g), a significantly increased negative zeta potential (from − 8.57 down to − 20.12 mV), a slight disruption of fiber crystallinity, 15.1–37.5 % and 27.9–49.8 % lower fabric maximum force and stiffness, respectively. Owing to the removal of hydrophobic surface barrier, decreased crystallinity index and the presence of micropores on the
fabrics' surfaces, oxidized fabrics have a 22.3–29.6 % improved ability for moisture sorption compared to raw fabric. Oxidized fabrics characterized by very long wetting times and excellent antioxidant activities (> 98 %), can find applications as hydrophobic packaging materials. To further extend the utilization of jute in biocarpet engineering such as water-binding geo-prebiotic supports, oxidized fabrics were coated with alginate resulting in 7.9–24.9 % higher moisture sorption and 352–660 times lower wetting times than their oxidized counterparts. This modification protocol has never been applied to lignocellulosic fibers and sheds new light on obtaining jute fabrics with tuned structure and properties intended for various applications.

AB  - Due to the high wastepaper recyclability and water-loop system closure, packaging paper mills struggle with increased fines, causing runnability issues. Cellulase enzymes are a preferred treatment choice for the improvement of the pulp refining in stock preparation area but are not widely used or easy to introduce in the production process. Different cellulase enzymes were tested, and those with the highest activity were introduced to the white-water (WW) samples with the aim to reduce fines content as potentially new enzyme applications on the paper machine. The first portion of the study involved the development of an experiment model to find and confirm the optimal enzyme process parameters (40 °C, pH 5.7, reaction time 3 h, and 0.18% v/v enzyme addition) for laboratory made white-water. The second portion of the study included turbidity, colloidal charge, flow cytometry (FCM), and chemical oxygen demand (COD) analysis on industrial and laboratory made white-water samples at optimized process parameters. Obtained results corresponded to reduced fines content in white-water samples, which justified commercial usage of cellulase enzymes on recycled paper machine short loop and potentially increased machine runnability without negative influence on wastewater treatment plant.

AB  - This study investigates the structure, electrochemical behavior and hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance of electrodeposited Ru–Co alloy coatings. The alloys were prepared from a 0.75 M Co2+ + 0.025 M Ru3+ solution at various potentials ranging from −0.5 to −1.2 V vs. SCE. Results reveal that the Ru and Co deposition processes are interdependent. The deposition of nobler Ru from the mixed metal solution reaches pure diffusion control already at −0.7 V compared to −1.0 V from a single Ru bath. On the other hand, Co deposition is significantly facilitated in the presence of Ru in the solution. Consequently, as the deposition potential changes from −0.6 to −1.0 V, Ru–Co solid solution coatings characterized by a distinct globular morphology are formed, with their Co content increasing from 22.1/7.4 to 70.2/86.1 wt% for the Cu/Ti2AlC MAX phase substrate applied. The alloy catalysts are found to show much better HER activity and stability in alkaline than in acidic solutions. The best Ru–Co@Ti2AlC sample, electrodeposited at −0.6 V, requires an overpotential of only −95 mV to deliver a current density of −100 mA cm−2 in 1 M KOH, thus outperforming most Ru–Co-based HER electrocatalysts reported to date.

AB  - The aim of this work was to examine the influence of polycaprolactone (PCL) as a soft segment (SS) on the surface properties of polyurethane networks (PUNs). Five PUNs with different SS content (from 10 to 50 wt%) were prepared using Boltorn® aliphatic hyperbranched polyester of the second pseudo generation and isophorone diisocyanate as components of hard segments. The structure, hydrophobicity, wettability, and swelling behavior of these PUNs were investigated. Primarily, the obtained results showed that properties of prepared PUNs strongly depend on the content of SS that is, PCL. It has been established that the increase of SS content reduced the degree of hydrogen bonding in PUNs. Also, the increase of the SS content in PUNs induced appearance of more pronounced microphase separated morphology, better hydrophobicity and non-wetting with diiodomethane. Simultaneously, the increase of the SS content led to the decrease of contact angles with formamide, and surface free energy of the prepared PUNs. These PUNs show good surface properties that are required for their potential application such as coatings.

AB  - Within this investigation, the effect of conventional and sophisticated extraction method was evaluated on the chemical composition of black cumin seeds (Nigella sativa L.) essential oils and their bioactive characteristics. Soxhlet extraction at 60 °C by hexane (SEH) and petroleum ether (SEP) was adopted as traditionally used technique, while the supercritical extraction with CO2 (SFE), under the pressure of 10 MPa and temperature of 40 °C, was performed as a modern method, expected to overcome the drawbacks of the conventional solvent extraction. The results showed that SFE enabled up to ten times higher extraction yields, compared to essential oils derived after Soxhlet extraction, however, the bioactive compounds content, such as polyphenols, flavonoids and carotenoids, were extracted in higher quantities in the oil from Soxhlet extraction performance. Thereby, the strongest antioxidant agent was found to be the essential oil obtained from SEP, followed by the oil from SFE and oil obtained from SEH, respectively. The GC-MS analysis revealed that the content of thymoquinone was the highest in the essential oil from SEP (69.58%), and the obtained values are among the highest reported within the available literature data. Also, this oil sample contained about eleven times higher thymoquinone quantities than the essential oil obtained by SFE, which was mostly constituted of a methyl linoleate, a fatty acid methyl ester of linoleic acid. In addition, the essential oil from SEP exerted a value added antimicrobial properties, where it was found to be particularly effective in suppression of the Gram-positive bacteria growth.

Soxhlet extraction at 60 °C by hexane (SEH) and petroleum ether (SEP) was adopted as traditionally used technique, while the supercritical extraction with CO2 (SFE), under the pressure of 10 MPa and temperature of 40 °C, was performed as a modern method, expected to overcome the drawbacks of the conventional solvent extraction. The results showed that SFE enabled up to ten times higher extraction yields, compared to essential oils derived after Soxhlet extraction, however, the bioactive compounds content, such as polyphenols, flavonoids and carotenoids, were extracted in higher quantities in the oil from Soxhlet extraction performance.

AB  - The incombustible portion of coal that remains after burning is known as bottom or fly ash, and it has a detrimental influence on the environment. One of the possible alternatives for reducing the amount of ash deposited in landfills might be the production of useful glass–ceramic from vitrified fly ash. Glass–ceramic was synthesized using fly ash from the thermal power plant "Nikola Tesla" and fluxing additives. Sinter crystallization of the parent glass resulted in glass ceramics. The glass was created by melting a combination of coal fly ash (CFA), Na2CO3, and CaCO3 at T = 1500 °C and quenching the melt in the air. Glass powders were sintered at temperatures 850 and 900 °C. The resulting glass–ceramics were characterized microstructurally, physically, and mechanically. The cavitation erosion of samples was evaluated. The cavitation rate was 0.015 mg/min for the sample sintered at 850 °C and 0.0053 mg/min for the sample sintered at 900 °C. The leaching of heavy metals in glass–ceramic samples was determined using Toxicity Characteristic Leaching Procedure. A low concentration of heavy metals in the leaching solution showed that heavy metals were successfully incorporated in the glass matrix and that obtained glass–ceramics are ecologically safe for usage. Both samples exhibit good resistance to cavitation erosion, suggesting their potential as possible replacements for structural ceramics commonly employed components of hydraulic machinery.

AB  - The study aimed toward the development of biocompatible and biodegradable polymeric films (starch-chitosan and starch-chitosan-cyclodextrin) with biologically valuable green tea leaf extract using an environmentally friendly integrated process of supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) and supercritical solvent impregnation (SSI). The SFE-SSI process parameters were selected through the initial estimation of the SFE parameters effect (temperatures 35 and 70 °C and the addition of co-solvents ethanol, ethanol/water, and water). The present early-stage work showed that an increase in temperature increased extraction yield (from 0.9 to 4.2%) and caffeine content while it decreased polyphenolic and pigment content as well as antioxidant activity and extract loading onto films (from 7.1 to 0.1%). The addition of co-solvents to sc-CO2 had an adverse effect on extract yield, composition, and loading. The highest recorded total phenolic, flavonoid, chlorophyll A, and caffeine content in extracts were 136.5 mg GE/g, 22.7 mg RE/g, 8.1 mg/g, and 460.0 mg/g, respectively.

AB  - The occurrence of potentially toxic elements (PTEs), including twelve heavy metal(loid)s (Cd, Cr, Cu, Ni, Pb, Zn, Hg, As, Co, V, Fe, Mn), fluoride (F−), and nitrate (NO3−) was evaluated in groundwater in the copper mining and smelter area of Bor city (south Carpathian, eastern Serbia). Groundwater samples were analyzed to determine the extent of pollution, identify natural and anthropogenic input of PTEs, and estimate potential human health risks due to exposure to these substances. The results revealed that the groundwater in the study area was highly contaminated with PTEs, particularly Cu and Zn. Multivariate analysis supported the natural and anthropogenic origin of PTEs, with Fe, Mn, and F− classified as naturally occurring, NO3− resulting from agricultural activities, while other PTEs were linked to smelter/mining processes. Geospatial mapping discovered several hotspots with potential high non-cancer and cancer risks to humans through ingestion pathway. From the studied PTEs, As is the most health risk contributing toxic element. The source-specific probabilistic risk assessment indicated the most significant contribution to the hazard index and total cancer risk from accidental leakage of metallurgical wastewater and wastewater from open mine pits. Monte Carlo analysis identified the human body weight and the ingestion rate as the most sensitive risk parameters. The study underscores the need for stringent environmental management measures, emphasizing the critical role of source-specific risk assessments in mitigating potential hazards associated with metallurgical wastewater and open mine pits.

AB  - Novel polymer network microformulations have been widely used for pharmaceutical applications. Especially challenging is to design and develop an ideal oral drug formulation due to many hostile factors in gastrointestinal (GI) tract microenvironment. Hydrogels attained striking attention for the use in controlled drug delivery systems, and for that purpose temperature- and pH-sensitive hydrogels have been extensively employed. This paper reports synthesis and characterization of innovative polymers-crosslinked hydrogel system consisted of N-isopropylacrylamide-graft-dextran (NiPAAm-g-Dex) and chitosan (Ch). Composition of the system was optimized to demonstrate distinguished encapsulation efficiency (EE) and release properties of diclofenac sodium (DS). The microspheres structure and morphology were confirmed by attenuated total reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (ATR FT-IR) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), respectively. Prepared microparticles have successfully passed through the simulated gastric and small intestine and reached the intestine, where the release of DS was carried out. In vitro release studies showed smooth release profile in a controllable manner with up to 40% release of the model drug after 4 h at pH 7.20 ± 0.01. Based on the results, novel polymer microformulations show excellent potential as controlled release drug delivery system and represent a superb candidate for additional in vivo testing.

AB  - Terpenes usually found in plants have a wide range of applications, especially as additives in various types of fuels, and most recently in the aviation industry, where they can be blended with jet fuels or kerosene. In this work, the densities of pure terpenes (1R)-(+)-α-pinene, (1S)-(−)-β-pinene, and linalool were measured over the temperature range T = (293.15 to 413.15) K and at high pressures p = (0.1 to 60) MPa. The experimental density data were fitted by the modified Tammann-Tait equation where the absolute average percentage deviation between measured and calculated densities was less than 0.02%, the percentage maximum deviation was less than 0.2%, and the average percentage deviation was less than 0.02% for all three measured terpenes. The obtained parameters were used to determine isothermal compressibility (κT), isobaric thermal expansivity (αp), internal pressure (pint), and the difference between specific heat capacity at constant pressure (cp) and constant volume (cv). Furthermore, the PC-SAFT model was applied for liquid density prediction at high pressures. Derived thermodynamic properties such as isothermal compressibility and isobaric thermal expansivity increase as temperature increases and decrease with pressure for all of the studied compounds.

AB  - While dental poly methyl methacrylate(PMMA) possesses distinctive qualities such as ease of fabrication, cost-effectiveness, and favorable physical and mechanical properties, these attributes alone are inadequate to impart the necessary impact strength and hardness. Consequently, pure PMMA is less suitable for dental applications. This research focused on the incorporation of Strontium titanate (SrTiO3-STO) and hybrid filler STO/Manganese oxide (MnO2) to improve impact resistance and hardness. The potential of STO in reinforcing PMMA is poorly investigated, while hybrid filler STO/MnO2 has not been presented yet. Differential scanning calorimetry is conducted in order to investigate the agglomeration influence on the PMMA glass transition temperature (Tg), as well as the leaching of residual monomer and volatile additives that could pose a threat to human health. It has been determined that agglomeration with 1 wt% loading had no influence on Tg, while the first scan revealed differences in evaporation of small molecules, in favor of composite PMMA-STO/MnO2, which showed the trapping potential of volatiles. Investigations of mechanical properties have revealed the significant influence of hybrid STO/MnO2 filler on microhardness and total absorbed impact energy, which were increased by 89.9% and 145.4%, respectively. Results presented in this study revealed the reinforcing potential of hybrid nanoparticles that could find application in other polymers as well.

AB  - This study present estimation of the thermodynamic parameters and the influence of ionic activity coefficient on the thermodynamic equilibrium constant of adsorption of phosphates on fly ash. The adsorption was conducted over a wide range of initial phosphate concentrations at different pH values pH = (3; 7; 10). The adsorption results were treated using the Langmuir, Freundlich and Sips adsorption isotherms, which provide information about the maximum adsorption capacity. The Langmuir and Sips isotherms were a satisfactory fit to the adsorption data, especially at pH = 3, with an acceptable regression coefficient over the entire concentration range, Langmuir (r2 = 0.9737) and Sips (r2 = 0.9969). The estimated maximum phosphate sorption capacity of fly ash was 6.21 ± 0.68 (mmol·g−1) according to Langmuir and 4.19 ± 0.16 (mmol·g−1) according to the Sips model, at pH = 3.0. However, there is no data in the published literature for estimating the thermodynamic parameters of the phosphate adsorption process using thermodynamic models for activity coefficients. Novel approach of this paper was determination of the thermodynamic equilibrium constant and Gibbs free energy, using the Pitzer ion-interaction model to predict the nature of adsorption. The Pitzer-ion interaction model was used for the mixed ionic systems, taking into consideration the effect of other present ions besides phosphates in the equilibrium solution resulting from fly ash desorption. The procedure for comprehensive estimation of the ion activity coefficient at maximum adsorption capacity and the dimensionless thermodynamic equilibrium constant using Langmuir's and Sips's constants was presented. The calculated value of the phosphate activity coefficient in the equilibrium solution was γH = 0.7003 ± 0.0027 and the converted molar activity coefficient was γH = 0.6903 ± 0.0027. The estimated values of Gibbs free energy were: ΔGL = −6.788 ± 0.521 kJ·mol−1 based on Langmuir equilibrium constant and ΔGa = −7.707 ± 0.527 kJ·mol−1 based on activity and thermodynamic equilibrium constant. According to Sips model, the adsorption process is even more spontaneous, with the Gibbs free energy calculated using the phosphate activity coefficient and the thermodynamic equilibrium constant, ΔGa = −9.707 ± 0.617 kJ·mol−1. Consideration of the ionic activity coefficient is particularly important for large, charged adsorbates at higher concentrations, as the absolute difference in free energy for adsorption is app. 12 %. The scientific contribution is reflected in obtaining the necessary and more accurate information for the improvement of adsorption processes and possibly for the upgrading of fly ash in overall wastewater treatment technology.

AB  - The anticholinergic drug, solifenacin, is frequently used for the treatment of the urological tract for urinary incontinence, and urinary frequency. The development of reliable and effective solifenacin electrochemical sensors is of great importance for the pharmaceutical industry and clinical practice. In this work, the electrochemical behavior of solifenacin succinate (SOL) was studied using three different working electrodes: gold (Au), glassy carbon (GCE) and boron-doped diamond electrode (BDDE). The cyclic voltammetric (CV) measurements performed in 0.05 M NaHCO3 indicated that the SOL oxidation process is irreversible and diffusion-controlled at all investigated working electrodes. Afterwards, the testing of SOL electrochemical stability and the possibility of its electrochemical degradation was performed at the Au electrode by the cycling of the potential during 3 h and continuously to 6 h. It was shown that the SOL was electrochemically transformed into another electroactive species and its degradation was excluded. For electroanalytical application, the anodically pretreated BDDE (+2.0 V; 30 s) was selected. Various experimental parameters were optimized, including the pH of the aqueous Britton-Robinson (B-R) buffer as a supporting electrolyte (from pH 2.0 to 11.98) and the most intensive peak of the target analyte was at pH 11.0, so this pH value was chosen as the optimum for further measurements. Based on the correlation of the SOL peak intensity and different concentrations, the developed differential pulse voltammetric (DPV) method was characterized by a linear concentration range from 0.041 to 2.50 µM, with a correlation coefficient of 0.999, and a relative standard deviation of 0.3 %. Taking into account the sensitivity of the developed DPV method towards the electrochemical oxidation of SOL, a very low detection limit of 0.012 µM in the model system was achieved. The BDDE showed adequate selectivity for SOL in the presence of the investigated interferents. The obtained results indicate that the BDDE with an optimized DPV method could be applied for the trace-level electroanalytical determination of SOL in human urine sample with excellent recovery and reproducibility.

AB  - A crucial aspect of tissue self-organization during morphogenesis, wound healing, and cancer invasion is directed migration of cell collectives. The majority of in vivo directed migration has been guided by chemotaxis, whereby cells follow a chemical gradient. In certain situations, migrating cell collectives can also self-generate the stiffness gradient in the surrounding tissue, which can have a feedback effect on the directionality of the migration. The phenomenon has been observed during collective durotaxis in vivo. Along the biointerface between neighbouring tissues, heterotypic cell-cell interactions are the main cause of this self-generated stiffness gradient. The physical processes in charge of tissue self-organization along the biointerface, which are related to the interplay between cell signalling and the formation of heterotypic cell-cell adhesion contacts, are less well-developed than the biological mechanisms of the cellular interactions. This complex phenomenon is discussed here in the model system, such as collective migration of neural crest cells between ectodermal placode and mesoderm subpopulations within Xenopus embryos by pointing to the role of the dynamics along the biointerface between adjacent cell subpopulations on the subpopulation stiffness.

AB  - Molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) as materials with determined levels of selectivity and specificity for designated analytes have recently gained much attention in various application fields. However, with the growing adoption of green analytical chemistry (GAC) principles, it is essential to investigate the greenness of MIP synthesis and its subsequent application in sample preparation, as well as to evaluate the "green"nature of the developed analytical methodologies, such as dispersive solid-phase microextraction (DSPME). Accordingly, the main objective of this research was to evaluate the greenness of MIP-based glycidyl methacrylate synthesis and MIP use as a DSPME sorbent prior to high-performance liquid chromatography with mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS). The green perspective of MIP-DSPME prior to HPLC-MS was investigated using various analytical metric tools such as the Analytical Eco-Scale, the Green Analytical Procedure Index, and Analytical GREEnness (AGREE). Since these analytical tools are not fully implementable for the assessment of the greenness of the MIP synthesis, some alternative approaches were used to optimize the synthesis parameters to make the MIP DSPME sorbent as close as possible to the GAC principles. The calculated AGREE score (0.62) and 91 points in the Analytical Eco-Scale for the proposed DSPME technique using MIP indicated a high level of greenness.

AB  - This study aimed to investigate the adsorption of As(V), phosphate, and textile dye Acid Green 25 (AG-25) on layered double hydroxides Mn-Fe_LDH and corresponding membranes (wCell/Mn-Fe_LDH). The wCell membrane, derived from waste tobacco boxes, was formed by cross-linking of epoxy and amino modified cellulose fibers with epoxy modified Mn-Fe_LDH and lysine as cross-linker. Structural and morphological analyses were conducted for Mn-Fe_LDH and wCell/Mn-Fe_LDH. The batch system explored pH, contact time, temperature, and initial concentration effects on wCell/Mn-Fe_LDH adsorption efficiency. Adsorption capacities of 82.71, 106.9, and 130.3 mg g−1 were achieved for As(V), phosphate, and AG-25, respectively, indicating effective anionic species removal. Kinetic analysis suggested intraparticle diffusion as the rate-limiting step. Thermodynamic parameters and ionic strength effects indicated a physisorption mechanism for AG-25 and surface complexation for As(V) and phosphate. Biodegradation experiments after five adsorption/desorption cycles revealed the membrane’s decomposition, with phosphate’s strong bonding releasing essential elements valuable for soil fertilization. Effluent wastewater treatment demonstrated low environmental impact through the formation of insoluble As(V) salts and photocatalytic dye degradation.

AB  - This paper investigates the feasibility of using diethyl adipate (DEA), a green organic solvent, as a separation agent for extracting various alcohols from aqueous solutions. In order to achieve this, liquid-liquid equilibria (LLE) experiments were carried out for four ternary systems: {water + methanol + DEA}, {water + ethanol + DEA}, {water + 1-propanol + DEA}, and {water + 2-propanol + DEA} at 298.15 K and atmospheric pressure. LLE experiments involve determination of certain thermodynamic data such as binodal curves and cloud-point data. Binodal curve data were determined by the cloud-point method using the titration technique, while the tie-line data were determined by optimizing the parameters based on the experimental measurements of the refractive index. Additionally, the distribution coefficients and the separation factors were calculated within the immiscibility region. Hand and Othmer-Tobias correlations were used to examine the reliability of the tie-line data. Also, the experimental ternary LLE data were correlated using the UNIversal QUAsiChemical (UNIQUAC) activity coefficient models. The results confirm that that DEA is a suitable choice for extracting methanol, ethanol, 1-propanol, and 2-propanol from water. The potential of DEA as a separation agent followed the sequence methanol < ethanol < 2-propanol < 1-propanol. UNIQUAC model proved to be effective in correlating the LLE data.
