This study evaluates the antioxidant properties and nutritional composition of purslane (Portulaca oleracea) grown in the arid region of Kyzylorda, Republic of Kazakhstan. The antioxidant capacity of purslane was assessed using the Ferric Reducing Antioxidant Power (FRAP) assay, yielding values of 43.5 ± 1.0 mg GAE g-1 dry weight, and DPPH radical scavenging activity, with a value of 83.8% at a concentration of 200 mcg/ml. Total phenolic content (TPC) and total flavonoid content (TFC) were recorded at 16.9 ± 0.4 mg GAE g-1 and 26.3 ± 1.0 mg rutin g-1, respectively. Additionally, purslane showed a high omega-3 fatty acid content, with linolenic acid (C18:3) being 26.7 ± 2.1%. The plant is also abundant in essential vitamins and minerals, including vitamin C (20.1 ± 4.6 mg 100 g-1), calcium (7656.2 ± 2663.7 mg 100 g-1), and iron (5309.7 ± 1056.8 mg 100 g-1). These findings support the potential use of purslane as a natural antioxidant source in the food industry and suggest further research into its applications in functional food development.

Overcoming the persistent challenges of high operating temperatures and poor selectivity in metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) gas sensors, this work enhances defect sites in the sensing material through heterostructure construction and builds mesoporous architectures using MOF-derived carbon skeletons as templates. The synergistic effects of multiple mechanisms significantly improve gas-sensing performance, successfully fabricating a ZnO/PCS flexible room-temperature gas sensor with exceptional room-temperature DMF detection capabilities. The nitrogen-containing porous carbon skeletons (PCSs) template shows a stable mesoporous microstructure with large pore volume.

The aluminum electrolysis industry generates massive greenhouse gas emissions dominated by CO and perfluorocarbons (PFCs, CF/CF), presenting dual challenges of climate impact and resource waste. Here, we report a robust nickel-based metal-organic framework (SIFSIX-3-Ni) featuring confined square channels (3.55 Å) that achieves the molecular-sieving separation of CO from CF/CF mixtures.

High-voltage lithium metal batteries (LMBs) have emerged as ideal candidates for achieving high-energy-density energy storage devices. Notably, high-reactive lithium metal and high-voltage transition metal oxide cathodes require electrolytes with superior electrochemical stability and interfacial compatibility. Herein, a solvent chemistry electrolyte design strategy is proposed that a weakly-solvated fluorinated bis(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl) carbonate (TFEC) was introduced into carbonate electrolyte for enhanced high voltage performance.

Precise control of particle size, pore size distribution, and carbon layer spacing under green and low-energy conditions is critical for developing advanced carbon electrodes for supercapacitors and sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). Herein, we proposed a new strategy to prepare an MgAl bimetallic metal-organic framework (MOF) via a pre-ionization strategy, effectively avoiding harsh conditions and using organic solvents in hydrothermal synthesis. By fine-tuning the Mg/Al ratio and pyrolysis conditions, the particle size, pore size distribution and carbon layer spacing of rod porous carbon (RPC) were precisely adjusted.
