A new C27N3-type Lycopodium alkaloid consisting of two decahydroquinolines and a piperidine, cryptadine C (1) was isolated from Lycopodium cryptomerinum. The structure and relative configuration of 1, which is related to those of cryptadines A and B, lycoperine A, and hupercumine A, was elucidated on the basis of spectroscopic data. Cryptadine C showed moderate inh...
Continue readingWe report the preparation of graphene oxide (GO)–agar–agar hydrogel and its utilization toward the removal of methyl orange (MO) dye from water. Graphene oxide–agar–agar composite hydrogel has been prepared from a mixture of chemically synthesized GO and agar–agar powder in hot water followed by cooling at room temperature. To study th...
Continue readingPbS thin films are deposited on soda-lime glass substrates using simple and inexpensive chemical bath deposition (CBD) method. We investigated the structural, morphological, and optical properties of PbS thin films as a function of deposition time. XRD and Raman analysis confirm the phase of PbS thin films. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) examined to study t...
Continue readingIn this work, a self-powered and high-performance vertical type photodetector based on solution-processed nitrogen-doped graphene quantum dots and all-inorganic perovskite nanocrystals heterostructure is achieved. The vertical type NGQDs/CsPbBr3 heterojunction photodetector was fabricated using two steps of standard lithography process and drop-casting method. Th...
Continue readingNMR fingerprints provide powerful tools to identify natural products in complex mixtures. Principal component analysis and machine learning using 1H and 13C NMR data, alongside structural information from 180 published formyl phloroglucinols, have generated diagnostic NMR fingerprints to categorize subclasses within this group. This resulted in the reassignment of ...
Continue readingColloidal mixed-halide perovskite nanocrystals (NCs) with a tunable emission color possess great potential for optoelectronic applications. However, their emission color and wavelength often change after purification and thin film deposition steps. In this work, to circumvent the emission shift issue, we report a novel method to directly tune the emission wavelengt...
Continue readingIn situ gelling systems (ISGS) can prolong retention time and bioavailability of ophthalmic solutions. The complexity and cost of ISGS avert their industrial scale-up and clinical implementation. In this study, we demonstrate novel application of hot-melt extrusion (HME) technology for continuous manufacturing of ISGS (MeltDrops Technology). Timolol maleate (TIM) a...
Continue readingGlioblastoma is a refractory malignant tumor that requires novel therapeutic strategies for effective treatment. We have previously reported that JCI-20679 (1), an analog of annonaceous acetogenins, shows potent antitumor activity against glioblastomas. However, the synthesis of 1 requires 23 steps, including 16 steps for the preparation of a tetrahydrofuran (THF) ...
Continue readingSite-dependent photoluminescence (PL) from Pr3+ was investigated in Pr3+-doped alkaline earth lanthanum tantalates with a double-perovskite-type structure (AA’)[BB’]O6. Pr3+ was partly substituted for La3+ in both (CaLa)[CaTa]O6 (CLTO) and (Ba2)[LaTa]O6 (BLTO). The results of X-ray absorption near-edge structure of the Pr L3 absorption edge strongly sup...
Continue readingThe use of solar-driven photocatalysis for the degradation of recalcitrant organic waste from water is a promising and environmentally friendly technology to meet the challenge of mitigating increasing global pollution. This paper presents a new composite of layered H2Ti3O7 hydrothermal nanotubes (TNT) with cadmium telluride quantum dots prepared by the simple mixi...
Continue readingThe main goal of this study was to predict the age-after-harvest of milled rice and classify it for stale or fresh rice during storage by determining the thiobarbituric acid (TBA) value non-destructively via a hyperspectral imaging (HSI). Thai jasmine rice (KDML 105 variety) was stored at 25°C, 35°C, and 50°C and randomly sampled every month for 12 mo...
Continue readingSeeds of a native aromatic plant of India, Abelmoschus moschatus (Ambrette), Malvaceae family, were considered for extraction and techno-economic evaluation in this study considering the commercial importance of unique volatile oil in the seed coat. Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) using CO2 as the extraction fluid was performed at different process parameters....
Continue readingRare sugar syrup (RSS) prepared by alkaline isomerisation of high-fructose corn syrup (HFCS) contains rare sugars as well as D-glucose (Glc) and D-fructose (Fru) and has antiobesity and antidiabetic effects. RSS was used in making bread, and the quality of the final bread product was compared with bread with added sucrose (Suc). 20°Bx RSS- and 20°Bx HFCS-...
Continue readingWhile vaccines have been highly successful in protecting against various infections, there are still many high-priority pathogens for which there are no clinically approved formulations. To overcome this challenge, researchers have explored the use of nanoparticulate strategies for more effective antigen delivery to the immune system. Along these lines, nanotoxoi...
Continue readingHigh-index dielectric nanostructures offer strong magnetic and electric resonances in the visible range and low optical losses, stimulating research interest in their use for light manipulation technologies. Lithographic fabrication of dielectric nanostructures, while providing precise control over the pattern dimensions, limits the scalability of this approach f...
