An efficient method for the simultaneous extraction of cannabinoids and terpenes from the leaves and flowers of Cannabis sativa L. (var. Felina 32) was developed. Extraction parameters, including solvent type, temperature, and pressure, were optimize...

Three Australian populations of Portulaca oleracea—Common Purslane, Omega Gold and Omega Red—were grown under identical conditions, separated into portions—leaf, bud, stem and root—and their extracts tested for total phenolic...

In the search for new materials to open up creative pathways for industry and research, modification is one of the best methods to implement. Developing materials with high sensitivity and selectivity for specific applications, such as ion sensing, r...

Considering the relevance of hydrogen bonds and other intermolecular interactions in regulating the activity of the tyrosine kinase class of enzymes, an in-depth electronic structure study of these forces in the context of the BCR-ABL protein was per...

Organophosphonates have manifold applications in the chemical industry, of which one of the most commonly used is 2-phosphonobutane-1,2,4-tricarboxylic acid (PBTC). It is widely used as a cement additive and may pose a potential risk of complexing ra...

Owing to the inherent safety, environmental friendliness, and high theoretical capacity (820 mAh g−1) of zinc metal, aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs) have emerged as up-and-coming alternatives to organic lithium-ion batteries. However, the in...

This study investigates, for the first time, the relationship between carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen stable isotopic composition of Aspergillus niger mycelium, used as chitin and chitosan sources, and the fungus diet under controlled cultivation co...

The rapid development of the silicon industry has led to the massive production of silica fume (SF), while its improper disposal poses environmental risks and represents a waste of resources. Unlike conventional methods that require dissolution and h...

This study examined the characteristics of essential oils and ethanolic extracts from nine pepper species’ fruits to determine their chemical compositions and assess their biological activity. Ethanolic extracts and essential oils were analyzed...

The possibility of modifying the surface chemistry of materials and synthetizing inorganic particles in natural aqueous extracts of plants (avoiding calcination), opens the doors to undoubtedly interesting scenarios for innovative functionalization s...
