RESUMEN
Carbon dioxide (CO2) absorption and capture is an effective measure to achieve the "dual carbon" goal of carbon peak and carbon neutrality in China. Organic amine compounds are widely used in the industrial separation and recovery of CO2. Thus, the establishment of analytical methods for organic amine compounds is of great significance for the research and development of carbon capture and storage (CCS) technology and carbon capture, utilization and storage (CCUS) technology. In this study, a method was developed for the determination of nine organic amine compounds in CO2 absorption liquid by hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography (HILIC)-electrostatic field orbitrap high resolution mass spectrometry. The sample was diluted with water and filtered through a 0.22 µm nylon membrane before sampling and analysis. An Accucore HILIC column (100 mm×2.1 mm, 2.6 µm) was used for separation at 30 â. Gradient elution was conducted using 90% acetonitrile aqueous solution containing 5 mmol/L ammonium formate and 0.1% formic acid as mobile phase A and 10% acetonitrile aqueous solution containing 5 mmol/L ammonium formate and 0.1% formic acid as mobile phase B. Determination was performed using an electrospray ion source (ESI) in the positive ion mode. The quantitative analysis was carried out by standard addition method. The chromatographic retention performance of different chromatographic columns and the influence of different mobile phases on the separation of the organic amine compounds were compared, and the method was validated. The results showed that the linear ranges of the nine organic amine compounds were 0.04-25000 ng/mL with the linear correlation coefficients (R2) greater than 0.9910. The limits of detection (LODs) of the method were in the range of 0.0004-0.0080 ng/mL, and the limits of quantification (LOQs) of the method were in the range of 0.0035-0.0400 ng/mL. The average recoveries of the method ranged from 85.30% to 104.26% with relative standard deviations (RSDs) of 0.04%-7.95% at the spiked levels of 1, 1.5 and 3 times sample concentration. The established method was applied to detect the absorption waste liquid of a cement plant, and nine organic amine compounds could be effectively detected. The stability of the actual sample was tested, and the RSDs were 0.10%-6.35% in 48 h at 4 â. The method is sensitive, rapid and accurate for the determination of the nine organic amine compounds in industrial waste water. It can provide reference for the detection of organic amine compounds, and provide strong technical support for the research and industrial application of CO2 capture technology.
RESUMEN
Owing to the concept of modern life and health, traditional baked foods are seeking transition. In this study, sweet corn residue (SCR) was used to replace wheat flour in cakes. We conducted sensory evaluation and texture analysis to assess sample quality. Also, we simulated digestion in vitro, and determined the content of total sugar and dietary fiber. The content of vitamin E and carotenoids were determined by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC), and the content of folate was determined by a microbiological method. With the increase of SCR, the content of dietary fiber, folate, vitamin E, and carotenoids significantly increased, and the digestive characteristics improved simultaneously. Based on the above evaluations, SCRC2 (sweet corn residue cake with 60% substitution) had similar sensory quality to the control (pure wheat flour cake) and had the characteristics of slow digestibility and high micronutrients.
RESUMEN
tert-Butyl (S)-6-chloro-5-hydroxy-3-oxohexanoate ((S)-CHOH) is a valuable chiral synthon, which is used for the synthesis of the cholesterol-lowering drugs atorvastatin and rosuvastatin. To date, only the alcohol dehydrogenases from Lactobacillus brevis (LbADH) and Lactobacillus kefir (LkADH) have demonstrated catalytic activity toward the asymmetric reduction of tert-butyl 6-chloro-3,5-dioxohexanoate (CDOH) to (S)-CHOH. Herein, a tetrad mutant of LkADH (LkTADH), A94T/F147L/L199H/A202L, was screened to be more efficient in this bioreduction process, exhibiting a 3.7- and 42-fold improvement in specific activity toward CDOH (1.27 U/mg) over LbADH (0.34 U/mg) and wild-type LkADH (0.03 U/mg), respectively. The molecular basis for the improved catalytic activity of LkTADH toward CDOH was investigated using homology modeling and docking analysis. Two major issues had a significant impact on the biocatalytic efficiency of this process, including (i) the poor aqueous stability of the substrate and (ii) partial substrate inhibition. A fed-batch strategy was successfully developed to address these issues and maintain a suitably low substrate concentration throughout the entire process. Several other parameters were also optimized, including the pH, temperature, NADP(+) concentration and cell loading. A final CDOH concentration of 427 mM (100 g/L) gave (S)-CHOH in 94 % yield and 99.5 % e.e. after a reaction time of 38 h with whole cells expressing LkTADH. The space-time yield and turnover number of NADP(+) in this process were 10.6 mmol/L/h and 16,060 mol/mol, respectively, which were the highest values ever reported. This new approach therefore represents a promising alternative for the efficient synthesis of (S)-CHOH.

OBJECTIVE: To master the dynamic endemic status and influencing factors of schistosomiasis in Yunnan Province, so as to provide the evidence for making the control and prevention measures. METHODS: Four villages of four schistosomiasis heavy endemic counties were selected as survey sites. Then, the serological screening and etiological tests were carried out in the residents, and the basic situations of the survey sites were investigated. The infection status of the livestock and relevant information of Oncomelania hupensis snails were surveyed. All the results were analyzed statistically. RESULTS: Totally 4310 residents were surveyed by the indirect hemagglutination assay with the examination rate of 79.68% and serum positive rate of 8.40%. The positive rate reached upwards 12.53% in Qiandian Village of Eryuan County. The serum positive rate of the female was higher than that of the male, and the positive rates of the 30 years and older age groups were higher than those of the other age groups. The serum positive rates of the peasants, migrant labourers and residents with the junior high school education level were higher. No positive feces were found. A total of 24 advanced cases were reported. No positive livestock and snails were found, and the average density of living snails was 0.023 3-0.056 6/0.1 m2. CONCLUSION: Right now, the schistosomiasis is at a low prevalence status in Yunnan Province, and the endemic situation has been effectively controlled.

Highly efficient controllable oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes or acids by sodium periodate in the presence of water-soluble manganese porphyrins (meso-tetrakis(N-ethylpyridinium-4-yl)manganese porphyrin, MnTEPyP) with different reaction media has been reported. The manganese porphyrin showed excellent activity for the controllable oxidation of various alcohols under mild conditions. Moreover, different factors influencing alcohol oxidation, for example, oxidant, catalyst amount, temperature, and solvent, have been investigated. A plausible mechanism for the controllable oxidation of alcohol has been proposed.
