This study presents a novel dual-temperature synthesis strategy for cobalt, zinc, and iron-based metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) integrated with tannic acid (TA) surface modification to enhance oxygen evolution reaction (OER) performance. MOFs...

Xylanases play a crucial role in bio-transforming sustainable agricultural polymers into xylose-based oligosaccharides, which have great potential in various biotechnology applications. Nevertheless, the application of bacterial xylanase is hindered...

This work quantifies how varying the Na/OSDA ratio in the synthesis gel (at fixed total [OH] content) affects the formation of SSZ-39, its growth kinetics, and the composition of the products obtained. It was found that it is possible to make phase-p...

Xylanolytic enzymes of the Fusarium species are closely associated with pathogenesis, where they soften plant cell walls to facilitate infection and nutrient uptake. This study investigated the xylanolytic system of Fusarium proliferatum PSA-3, a str...

Alkali metal-modified M-ZSM-5 zeolites (M: Li+, Na+, K+) were synthesized by cationic exchange and characterized using ICP-MS, XRD, N2 adsorption–desorption, Py-IR and NH3-TPD techniques to evaluate their elemental composition, structure, textu...

In this work, limonene-1,2-epoxide hydrolase (LEH) from Rhodococcus erythropolis was immobilized on Immobead 150P and various Purolite® methacrylate-based carriers, and subsequently applied in the hydrolysis of cis-/trans-(+)-limonene-1,2-epoxide...

This study focuses on enhancing the efficiency of alkaline water electrolysis technology, a key process in green hydrogen production, by leveraging the synergy of magnetic fields and in situ electrode activation. Optimizing AWE efficiency is essentia...

Microplastics (MPs), defined as synthetic polymer particles ranging from 1 μm to 5 mm, originate from various sources, including synthetic textiles, tire wear, degraded plastic waste, etc. Their small size and chemical stability make them challeng...

A series of porous carbons (PPC) derived from pomegranate peel were synthesized as catalyst supports for Pd/PPC catalysts via hydrothermal-carbonization and incipient wetness impregnation in an acetylene hydrochlorination reaction. The optimal Pd/PPC...

Ticks transmit diseases and harm animals worldwide, and their control primarily relies on pesticides. Resistance to these pesticides has developed consistently over centuries. Arginine Kinase (AK, EC 2.7.3.3) is a conserved, ancestral enzyme that pro...
