The effects of different soil nutrient management schemes in nitrogen cycling
(2019)
It is imperative for sustainable agriculture to explore practices and inputs creating low N2O emission capacity without reducing the productivity of the agricultural system. To evaluate different nutrient management schemes, ...
Urine and fecal samples targeted metabolomics of carobs treated rats
(2019)
Ceratonia siliqua, known as the carob, is considered to be of high nutritional value and of great economic significance due to its unique composition. The beneficial effects of carob against cancer, metabolic syndrome, ...
GC–MS analysis of D-pinitol in carob: Syrup and fruit (flesh and seed)
(2019)
D-pinitol (3-O-methyl-D-chiro-inositol) is a well-known bioactive compound with anti-diabetic and anti-oxidant biological functions. A gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) method was developed for its quantitation ...
Main and side stream effects of electronic cigarettes
(2019)
Over the last decade there has been a significant boost towards the use of electronic cigarettes (e-cigarettes), especially among youth. Different concentrations of propylene glycol (PG) or vegetable glycerin (VG), flavors ...
Volatolomics: A broad area of experimentation
(2019)
Chemical analysis (detection and monitoring) of compounds associated with the metabolic activities of an organism is at the cutting edge of science. Volatile metabolomics (volatolomics) are applied in a broad range of ...
The Importance of Microstructure in Determining Polaron Generation Yield in Poly(9,9-dioctylfluorene)
(2019)
Understanding the structure–property relationships that govern exciton dissociation into polarons in conjugated polymers is key in developing materials for optoelectronic applications such as light-emitting diodes and solar ...
A Microporous Co(II)-Based 3-D Metal Organic Framework Built from Magnetic Infinite Rod-Shaped Secondary Building Units
(2019)
The synthesis and characterization of {[Co5(INA)3(HCOO)7(DMF)(H2O)]·2DMF·4H2O}∞ (INA? = the anion of isonicotinic acid) denoted as Co5-INA·2DMF·4H2O is reported. The compound was isolated from the reaction of Co(NO3)2·6H2O ...
Abstract - A Microporous Co(II)-Based 3-D Metal Organic Framework Built from Magnetic Infinite Rod-Shaped Secondary Building Units
(2019)
Abstract Invited for the cover of this issue is Anastasios Tasiopoulos from the University of Cyprus. The cover image shows photos from the southwestern Cyclades island group of the Aegean Sea, which contain a wealth of ...
Multiple Network Hydrogels: A Study of Their Nanoindentation Hardness
(2019)
Nanoindentation is employed to investigate at the nanoscale the mechanical properties of multiply-interpenetrated N,N-dimethylacrylamide hydrogels cross-linked using N,N′-methylenebis(acrylamide). The main result from these ...
Promotional effect of Ce doping in Cu4Al1Ox – LDO catalyst for low-T practical NH3-SCR: Steady-state and transient kinetics studies
(2019)
There are very few catalysts reported so far to withstand poisoning by the co-presence of SO2, HCl and H2O in the flue gas stream for the NH3-SCR. The purpose of this work was to report for the first time, to the best of ...
