Article Abstract

Titanium (Ti), aluminum (Al), and boron (B) reactive mixed-metal nanopowders (Ti-Al-B RMNPs) represent attractive additives to hydrocarbon fuels such as -tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene (CH; JP-10) enhancing the limited volumetric energy densities of traditional hydrocarbons, but fundamental mechanisms and combustion stages in the oxidation have been obscure. This understanding is of vital significance in the development of next-generation propulsion systems and energy-generation technologies. Here, we expose distinct oxidation stages of single droplets of JP-10 doped with Ti-Al-B-RMNP exploiting innovative ultrasonic levitator technology coupled with time-resolved spectroscopic (UV-vis) and imaging diagnostics (optical and infrared). Two spatially and temporally distinct stages of combustion define a glow flame stage in which JP-10 and nanoparticles combust via a homogeneous gas phase (Al) and heterogeneous gas-surface oxidation (Ti, B) and a slower diffusion flame stage associated with the oxidation of JP-10. These findings enable the development of next-generation RMNP fuel additives with superior payload delivery capabilities.

Introduction: Preserved ratio impaired spirometry (PRISm) is an important phenotype of pulmonary function in clinical and public health practice. It is possible for some patients to have chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) at an early stage. At present there is little research on the association of PRISm with type 2 (T2) inflammation biomarkers.

Maize (Zea mays L.) is one of the world's most widely cultivated and economically important cereal crop, serving as a staple food and feed source in over 170 countries. However, its global productivity is threatened by late wilt disease (LWD), a disease caused by Magnaporthiopsis maydis, that spreads through soil and seeds and can cause severe yield losses.

Aluminum is a lightweight and corrosion-resistant metal element that is widely used in industries, construction, food, and pharmaceuticals, and it can adversely affect multiple organ systems including the nervous system, skeletal system, reproductive system, blood system, and immune system. In present study, we investigated the effects of aluminum exposure on mammalian embryo development. Our data demonstrate that aluminum exposure induces mouse early embryo development defects, including those at the zygotes and 2-cell stages, causing a decrease in general transcription activity.

The aim of the study was to assess the effect of lyophilized cell-free supernatant (CFS) obtained from Lacticaseibacillus paracasei B1 and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum O24 cultures on the characteristics of cooked pork sausages stored by 21 days at 4 °C. The following parameters were assessed: antioxidant activity (ABTS, Reducing Power, Fe-chelating activity), texture parameters (hardness, springiness, gumminess, chewiness) and color changes (L*,a*,b*), as well as the fatty acid profile and TBARS content as an indicator of lipid oxidation. Microbiological status was also assessed.
