A series of boron doped magnetic zirconium catalysts were developed for the selective transfer hydrogenation of biomass-derived furfural (FFR) into furfuryl alcohol (FA) using 2-propanol as hydrogen source and solvent. Full characterizations with XRD, SEM, TG, Py-IR, NH3-TPD, and CO2-TPD techniques were undertaken to uncover structural properties o...

Butyrate has been used extensively as a feed additive to improve gut health and to decrease Salmonella colonization in poultry. Salmonella mainly colonizes the ceca so butyrate concentrations should be increased in this gut segment. Discrepancies on the effects of butyrate on Salmonella colonization, described in the scientific literature, could th...

Exposure to sunlight is the major source of vitamin D and the main environmental cause of non-melanocytic skin cancers. Vitamin D, partly mediated through the vitamin D receptor (VDR), has potential therapeutic applications in skin cancer. The aim of this study was to investigate the association of BsmI and ApaI VDR polymorphisms among patients wit...

Chronic wound infections are difficult to manage because of the biofilm formation in the wound environment. New measures for eliminating infections are necessary to increase the chance of wound healing. Apitherapy may be the new solution. The aim of this study was to assess the prevalence of wound infection factors and to examine the impact of Manu...

Glucarate, a physiologic end-product of the D-glucuronic acid pathway in mammals, is a six-carbon dicarboxylic acid with a wide range of uses. Glucarate-based molecular imaging probes including [99mTc]glucarate and [18F]glucarate have been developed and demonstrated to have infarct/necrosis-avid and/or tumor-seeking properties, showing potential ap...

Light plays an essential role in the outcome of plant-pathogen interactions. In this study, the effect of pre- and post-inoculation light quality on Botrytis cinerea disease development in strawberry leaves was investigated. Circadian variations in leaf susceptibility to Botrytis cinerea were tested by inoculating at 5 h, 12 h, or 16 h after the st...

The application of ionic liquid is attracting more attentions as green replacement for volatile organic solvents. However, the toxic effects and risks of ionic liquid in different biological systems for human health and environ-ment are poorly evaluated. Among all ionic liquids, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium diethylphosphate ([Emim] DEP-type) ionic l...

In this study, NaOH-catalyzed organosolv pretreatment with different loading of NaOH (0-10%) was proposed to disrupt the recalcitrant structure by degrading lignin, reserve the majority of cellulose and hemicellulose, and improve the enzymatic efficiency of sugarcane bagasse. It was found that the higher loading of NaOH during organosolv pretreatme...
