The purpose of this study was to determine hepatic enzymes and oxidation/antioxidation in rats with acute alcoholism. METHODS: Rats were randomly divided into three groups; control, low-dose alcohol, and high-dose alcohol. Each al- cohol group ( n = 12) was intravenously infused with etha- nol at a dose of 0.3 or 0.7 g/kg body weight respectively. The control group (n =11) was intravenously infused with normal saline at a dose of 0.5 g/kg body weight. Blood was collected for detection of hepatic enzymes and index of oxidation/antioxidation. RESULTS: The ratio of AST to ALT was 2.44±0.46, 2.57± 0.60 and 3.03 ±0.46 in the three groups, and the difference was significant between the control and high-dose alcohol groups (P^0.05). No significant changes were observed in the levels of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspar- tate aminotransferase (AST), total protein (Tp), albumin (Alb), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), cholinesterase (ChE), total bilirubin (TB), C-reactive protein (CRP) and amy- lase. The levels of serum nitric oxide (NO) in the 3 groups were 39.2 ±73.25 mol/L, 42.30 ±4.60 mol/L and 47.86± 4.66 mol/L, and significant difference was seen between the control group and the high-dose alcohol group (P < 0.01). No significant difference was found in the levels of serum superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH), malondiethylaldehyde (MDA), and CRP in the 3 groups. CONCLUSION: The ratio of AST to ALT appears to be a useful index for acute alcohol intoxication. NO is involved in the mechanism of acute alcohol intoxication.展开更多

[Method] Fourteen varieties of balsam pear were chosen to analyze total contents of free or bound phenol and components of free phenol. FRAP (Freeic reducing/antioxidant power), DPPH (1,1diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazy), and ABTS +· (2, 2’-azinobis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid diammonium salt) were used to measure antioxidation and analyze relationship between polyphenol content and antioxidation. [Result] Among the fourteen varieties of balsam pear, free, bound and total phenols were 157.58 -382.92, 6.46 -54 and 175.27 -413.79 mg GAE/100 g DW; coefficients of variance were 23.50% , 61.04% and 21.58%, respectively; free phenol accounted for 91.34% of total phenol and bound phenol accounted for 8.66% ; contents of total flavone for the fourteen varieties were from 8.97 to 18.22 mg CE/100 g DW and the coefficient was at 22.80%; vanillic aldehyde acid, epicatechin and rutin differed in contents among different varieties, which changed in 1.83-9.29, 35.17-114.52 and 0.91-4.53 mg/100 g DW and the coefficients were 43.85%, 26.97% and 33.09%; FRAP antioxidation was at 272.16 -713.32 mg TE/100 g DW and coefficient at 27.67% ; IC 50 of DPPH and ABTS +· clearance were 11.43-34.14 and 21.57-119.71 mg GAE/100 g DW and coefficients were at 35.10% and 63.75% , accordingly; content of total phenol was of extremely positive correlation with FRAP (P0.01) and of extremely negative correlation with IC 50 of DPPH and ABTS + · clearance (P0.01). [Conclusion] Contents of phenolic compounds and antioxidation are of significant genotype differences; and phenolic substance and antioxidation are mainly in free form and phenolic substance is the major basis for antioxidation.展开更多

A T-test, a fast clustering procedure, and a correlation coefficient analysis were used for experimentation. The variation ranges of the total antioxidant capacity (TAC), the total phenolics, and anthocyanin contents in 127 black soybean accessions were 0.44-3.56, 7.05-74.82, and 0.22-1.87 mg g-l, respectively, displaying significant genotype differences. The major differences in TAC, the total phenolics, and the anthocyanin contents existed among various types of accessions from geographical regions. The differences between the accessions from black and yellow soybeans, spring and autumn, summer and autumn, Dongbeichun and Nanfangchun, Dongbeichun and Nanfangxia, Beifangchun and Nanfangchun, and Beifangchun and Nanfangxia were significant at 0.01 or 0.05 levels, respectively. The general tendency was that the TAC, the total phenolics, and the anthocyanin contents of Beifangchun accessions were higher than that of Dongbeichun ones, while that of Nanfangchun accessions were the worst. 127 black soybean accessions could be clustered into 6 clusters, which consisted of 3, 24, 20, 31, 37, and 12 accessions, respectively. The most significant (P 〈 0.01) correlations existed respectively between the TAC and the total showed that the total substances phenolics content, and the TAC and the anthocyanin content of black soybean.

The results indicated that the great differences in total antioxidant capacity (TAC), scavenging free radical capacity (SFRC), total flavones and anthocyanin contents existed among 242 black rice varieties. Comparisons of TAC, SFRC, total flavones and anthocyanin contents of different black rice types showed that the differences between black rice and white rice, indica one and japonica one, and nonglutinous one and glutinous one were significant at 0.01 levels, respectively. This showed that the TAC, SFRC, total flavones and anthocyanin contents of japonica type were higher than those of indica one, and nonglutinous type were higher than glutinous one. According to the fast clustering procedure, 242 black rice varieties could be clustered into 10 clusters, 184 indica rice varieties into 10 clusters, and 58 japonica rice varieties into 6 clusters. Most significant (P〈0.01) correlations existed between TAC and total flavones and anthocyanin contents, and between SFRC and total flavones and anthocyanin contents of black rice, respectively. This showed that the antioxidation of black rice was closely correlated with its active compositions of flavones and anthocyanin.展开更多
文摘BACKGROUND: Around the world more and more people suffer from acute alcoholism. The purpose of this study was to determine hepatic enzymes and oxidation/antioxidation in rats with acute alcoholism. METHODS: Rats were randomly divided into three groups; control, low-dose alcohol, and high-dose alcohol. Each al- cohol group ( n = 12) was intravenously infused with etha- nol at a dose of 0.3 or 0.7 g/kg body weight respectively. The control group (n =11) was intravenously infused with normal saline at a dose of 0.5 g/kg body weight. Blood was collected for detection of hepatic enzymes and index of oxidation/antioxidation. RESULTS: The ratio of AST to ALT was 2.44±0.46, 2.57± 0.60 and 3.03 ±0.46 in the three groups, and the difference was significant between the control and high-dose alcohol groups (P^0.05). No significant changes were observed in the levels of serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT), aspar- tate aminotransferase (AST), total protein (Tp), albumin (Alb), alkaline phosphatase (ALP), cholinesterase (ChE), total bilirubin (TB), C-reactive protein (CRP) and amy- lase. The levels of serum nitric oxide (NO) in the 3 groups were 39.2 ±73.25 mol/L, 42.30 ±4.60 mol/L and 47.86± 4.66 mol/L, and significant difference was seen between the control group and the high-dose alcohol group (P < 0.01). No significant difference was found in the levels of serum superoxide dismutase (SOD), glutathione (GSH), malondiethylaldehyde (MDA), and CRP in the 3 groups. CONCLUSION: The ratio of AST to ALT appears to be a useful index for acute alcohol intoxication. NO is involved in the mechanism of acute alcohol intoxication.

文摘Traumatic brain injury involves complex pathophysiological mechanisms,among which oxidative stress significantly contributes to the occurrence of secondary injury.In this study,we evaluated hypidone hydrochloride(YL-0919),a self-developed antidepressant with selective sigma-1 receptor agonist properties,and its associated mechanisms and targets in traumatic brain injury.Behavioral experiments to assess functional deficits were followed by assessment of neuronal damage through histological analyses and examination of blood-brain barrier permeability and brain edema.Next,we investigated the antioxidative effects of YL-0919 by assessing the levels of traditional markers of oxidative stress in vivo in mice and in vitro in HT22 cells.Finally,the targeted action of YL-0919 was verified by employing a sigma-1 receptor antagonist(BD-1047).Our findings demonstrated that YL-0919 markedly improved deficits in motor function and spatial cognition on day 3 post traumatic brain injury,while also decreasing neuronal mortality and reversing blood-brain barrier disruption and brain edema.Furthermore,YL-0919 effectively combated oxidative stress both in vivo and in vitro.The protective effects of YL-0919 were partially inhibited by BD-1047.These results indicated that YL-0919 relieved impairments in motor and spatial cognition by restraining oxidative stress,a neuroprotective effect that was partially reversed by the sigma-1 receptor antagonist BD-1047.YL-0919 may have potential as a new treatment for traumatic brain injury.

文摘The oxidation behavior of Ti55 alloy and TiBw/Ti55 composites at temperatures ranging from 960 to 1000℃ was investigated by characterizing the surface and cross-section microstructure of specimens.Results showed that TiBw reinforcement accelerated the occurrence of Ti_(6O)/Ti_(3O) by dissolving oxygen in titanium in the starting oxidation stage,and the Ti_(6O)/Ti_(3O) transformed into TiO_(2) with the progression of oxidation.Meanwhile,TiBw reinforcement promoted the formation of(101)crystal planes to be beneficial to the growth of TiO_(2) twins.The cross-sectional characterization showed that the oxide layer of Ti55 alloy and TiBw/Ti55 composites from outside to inside was TiO_(2)+Al_(2)O_(3),TiO_(2),Ti-Sn compounds,Ti_(6O)/Ti_(3O) in sequence,which was confirmed by calculating the standard Gibbs free energy of the oxide nucleation.The TiBw reinforcement accelerated the occurrence of suboxides Ti_(6O)/Ti_(3O) by dissolving oxygen in titanium,and promoted the formation of(101)crystal planes which were beneficial to the growth of TiO_(2) twins.The optimal addition of TiBw induced the TiO_(2) twins,promoted the random orientation of oxides and refined the oxide size of the TiBw/Ti55 composites with 3.5%volume fractions of TiBw,resulting in the best resistance against oxidation.

文摘Consumers are increasingly demanding natural colorants that are safe and offer health benefits.In addition to their ornamental characteristics,Kanzan cherry(KC)blossoms present a promising source of red-hued natural colorants and functional bioactive substances.This research utilized distilled water to extract KC petals(KCP)and their ground powders(KCPP)under varying temperatures(30℃–90℃)and times(30–180 min).The total monomeric anthocyanins(TMAC)and total phenolics(TPC)in the extracts were evaluated via the pH differential and Folin–Ciocalteu methods.Antioxidant capacities were assessed by DPPH free radical scavenging ability and reducing power.Results indicated that the optimal extraction of TMAC and TPC from KCP occurred at 90℃ for 30 min,and the resulting extracts exhibited the highest antioxidant activities among all tested temperatures and durations.Compared to different particle sizes,the finest KCPP generally produced extracts with the highest TMAC,TPC,and antioxidant activity,due to enhanced mass and heat transfer.When compared with the acidified alcohol method,hot water extraction resulted in 68.23%and 71.41%TMAC yields for petals and powders,respectively,while TPC levels were similar or higher.TMAC or TPC showed a significantly positive correlation(p<0.01)with the antioxidant activities.These findings demonstrate that hot water extraction is a viable and environmentally friendly alternative for phytochemical recovery from KC.Additionally,elevated extraction temperature and pH accelerated anthocyanin degradation and shortened its half-life,while higher pH also lowered the activation energy,enthalpy,entropy,and Gibbs free energy.Thus,red–orange KC extracts with rich bioactivity may serve as promising ingredients for functional foods having acidic pH levels.

文摘To mitigate the impact of interdiffusion reactions between the silicide slurry and Ta12W alloy substrate during vacuum sintering process on the oxidation resistance of the silicide coating,a micro-arc oxidation pretreatment was employed to construct a Ta_(2)O_(5)ceramic layer on the Ta12W alloy surface.Subsequently,a slurry spraying-vacuum sintering method was used to prepare a Si-Cr-Ti-Zr coating on the pretreated substrate.Comparative studies were conducted on the microstructure,phase composition,and isothermal oxidation resistance(at 1600℃)of the as-prepared coatings with and without the micro-arc oxidation ceramic layer.The results show that the Ta_(2)O_(5)layer prepared at 400 V is more continuous and has smaller pores than that prepared at 350 V.After microarc oxidation pretreatment,the Si-Cr-Ti-Zr coating on Ta12W alloy consists of three distinct layers:an upper layer dominated by Ti_(5)Si_(3),Ta_(5)Si_(3),and ZrSi;a middle layer dominated by TaSi_(2);a coating/substrate interfacial reaction layer dominated by Ta_(5)Si_(3).Both the Si-Cr-Ti-Zr coatings with and without the Ta_(2)O_(5)ceramic layer do not fail after isothermal oxidation at 1600℃for 5 h.Notably,the addition of the Ta2O5 ceramic layer reduces the high-temperature oxidation rate of the coating.

文摘Plasmonic gold nanoflowers(AuNFs)exhibit considerable potential in wound repair therapy due to their excellent photothermal conversion capability,high surface area,and multi-enzyme activities.However,the intrinsic pro-oxidative properties of AuNFs limit their therapeutic efficacy in diabetic wound treatment.To overcome this limitation,a near-infrared plasmonic Au@CDCe nanohybrid system that can enhance antioxidative performance through the synergistic effects of localized surface plasmon resonance-induced photothermal effect and hot electrons is developed.Specifically,AuNFs serve as near-infrared plasmonic exciters,generating hot electrons that are efficiently transferred to cerium-doped carbon dots(CDCe).Combined with mild photothermal effects,these processes synergistically enhance hydroxyl radical scavenging activity,as well as superoxide dismutase-and catalase-mimicking activities.In vitro experiments demonstrate that Au@CDCe effectively protects cells from oxidative damage,and promotes cell proliferation and migration.In vivo evaluations confirm its ability to modulate the immune microenvironment and accelerate diabetic wound healing.This work establishes a new paradigm for modulating the oxidative stress microenvironment through antioxidant gold-based plasmonic nanozymes and provides novel insights into tuning of prooxidant nanozyme into plasmon-enhanced antioxidant nanozyme.
文摘Passiflora incarnata L.,commonly known as passionflower,is traditionally cultivated as an ornamental plant but has demonstrated diverse therapeutic potential.Its pharmacological effects are attributed to bioactive compounds such as flavonoids and alkaloids,which influence multiple biological pathways.This review aims to summarise and critically analyse recent findings on the pharmacological properties of Passiflora incarnata L.,focusing on its neuropsychiatric,antioxidant,antimicrobial,and anticancer activities.A targeted literature search was conducted in PubMed,Scopus,Web of Science,and Google Scholar for peer-reviewed publications between 2000 to 2025.Relevant articles were screened,and a more appropriate article related to the objective of the review was selected.Some classical papers are also cited as per the requirement of the topic.Passiflora incarnata L.showed multifunctional medicinal properties with various applications in neuropsychiatry,oxidative stress management,antimicrobial agent,and as an anticancer agent.The U.S.Food and Drug Administration categorizes passionflower extracts as“generally recognized as safe”.However,most evidence remains preclinical,with methodological variation limiting generalisation.Standardised formulation,robust clinical trials,and in-depth in vivo studies are essential to establish its therapeutic relevance and safety in modern medicine.

文摘Fine-grained nuclear graphite is a key material in high-temperature gas-cooled reactors(HTGRs).During air ingress accidents,core graphite components undergo severe oxidation,threatening structural integrity.Therefore,understanding the oxidation behavior of nuclear graphite is essential for reactor safety.The influence of oxidation involves multiple factors,including temperature,sample size,oxidant,impurities,filler type and size,etc.The size of the filler particles plays a crucial role in this study.Five ultrafine-and superfine-grained nuclear graphite samples(5.9-34.4μm)are manufactured using identical raw materials and manufacturing processes.Isothermal oxidation tests conducted at 650℃-750℃ are used to study the oxidation behavior.Additionally,comprehensive characterization is performed to analyze the crystal structure,surface morphology,and nanoscale to microscale pore structure of the samples.Results indicate that oxidation behavior cannot be predicted solely based on filler grain size.Reactive site concentration,characterized by active surface area,dominates the chemical reaction kinetics,whereas pore tortuosity,quantified by the structural parameterΨ,plays a key role in regulating oxidant diffusion.These findings clarify the dual role of microstructure in oxidation mechanisms and establish a theoretical and experimental basis for the design of high-performance nuclear graphite capable of long-term service in high-temperature gas-cooled reactors.

文摘Effective control of gas-phase pollutants(volatile organic compounds(VOCs)and CO)is critical to human health and the ecological environment.Catalytic oxidation is one of the most promising technologies for achieving efficient volatile organic compounds and CO emission control.The subnano cluster catalyst can not only provide catalytic sites with multiple metal atoms,but also maintain full utilization efficiency.Almost all metal atoms in highly dispersed clusters can be used for adsorption and conversion of reactants.Recently,various types of sub-nano clusters,including subnano cluster oxides,have been developed and demonstrated excellent performance in low-temperature gas-phase pollutants combustion.In this mini review,we systematically summarize the structure,physicochemical properties,characterization,and applications of sub-nano cluster catalysts in catalytic oxidation of CO,methane,propane,propylene,toluene and its derivatives,formaldehyde and chlorinated volatile organic compounds.Finally,we have analyzed and discussed the problems and challenges faced by sub-nano cluster catalysts in both basic research and practical applications,providing a scientific basis for the design,synthesis,and application of efficient heterogeneous catalysts for CO and VOCs oxidation.

文摘Methanol oxidation reaction(MOR)is a key process in direct methanol fuel cells(DMFCs),determining both energy efficiency and stability.Despite efforts,the impact of dynamic structural changes of Pt-based catalysts on MOR performance remains poorly understood.Here,we report on the impact mechanism of dynamic changes on MOR performance in the Pd-Pt concave nanocubes(CNCs)system.Pt with high-index facets exposed abundant active sites for methanol oxidation,resulting in an exceptional mass activity of 0.89 A·mg_(Pt)^(-1).Pd underwent an oxidationredeposition process during MOR,dynamically restructuring the catalyst and producing a volcano-type activity.Pd^(δ+)species generated during oxidative etching promoted OH*formation,accelerating CO oxidation on Pt sites,thus mitigating poisoning.With continued cycling,redeposited Pd partially blocked Pt sites,counteracting the positive effect of the generated Pd^(δ+).The dynamic balance of Pd oxidation and redeposition governed the activity evolution while sustaining the exceptional durability of Pd-Pt CNCs during prolonged cycling.

文摘In this work,we constructed a three-dimensional electrochemical system(3D-ECO),which included the cathode and anode electrode plates,as well as the screening of three-dimensional particle electrodes and parameter opti-mization,for the degradation of landfill leachate(LL)containing elevated levels of tetracycline(TC),and explored its mechanism of action.Firstly,titanium-based ruthenium-iridium(Ti/RuO_(2)-IrO_(2)),titanium-based ruthenium-iridium-platinum(Ti/Pt-RuO_(2)-IrO_(2)),and titanium-based tin-antimony(Ti/SnO_(2)-Sb_(2)O_(3))were employed as an-odes in the electrocatalytic oxidation system,with titanium and stainless steel plates serving as cathodes,to construct the optimal two-dimensional electrocatalytic oxidation system(2D-ECO)through cross-comparison ex-periments.Subsequently,using granular activated carbon(GAC),coconut shell biochar(CBC),walnut shell carbon(WBC),and bamboo charcoal(BBC)as particle electrodes,a 3D-ECO system was developed.The influence of var-ious operational parameters on treating TC-containing LL was investigated.The optimal operating parameters obtained from the study was:pH=5,current density of 30 mA/cm^(2),particle dosage of 7 g/L,particle size ranging from 1.70 to 2.00 mm,and electrode spacing of 4 cm.Under these conditions,the COD removal rate of 3D-ECO within three hours was 90.25%,the TC removal rate was 72.41%,and the NH_(3)-N removal rate was 39.52%.The removal of TC followed a pseudo-first-order kinetic model.Additionally,degradation mechanisms were elucidated through electron paramagnetic resonance(EPR)spectrometer and Tert-Butanol(TBA)quenching experiments,indicating that the degradation primarily occurred through a non-radical(1O_(2))pathway.This re-search offers a comprehensive analysis of the simultaneous breakdown of intricate LL matrices and TC,enhancing our comprehension of the degradation processes and underlying mechanisms.

文摘Co-based materials usually undergo in-situ surface reconstruction during oxidation reactions,forming high-valent Co_(3)+/Co4+species as the true active sites.However,conventional bulk structures of Co-based materials hinder deep phase transformation,limiting the utilization of internal Co sites and suppressing catalytic efficiency.Here,we report the hollow engineering of cobalt phosphide(CoP)to facilitate exposure of Co sites and promote in-situ transformation to Co_(3+)/Co^(4+)active species for enhanced oxidation activity.Hollow CoP(H-CoP)is derived from ZIF-67 via controlled etching and phosphorization,with electrochemically active surface area 2.1 times that of conventional solid CoP(S-CoP).H-CoP achieves a current density of 10 mA·cm^(-2) at a lower potential(1.26 V vs.reversible hydrogen electrode(RHE))in 5-hydroxymethylfurfural oxidation reaction(HMFOR),with a HMF conversion of 99.5%,2,5-furandicarboxylic acid yield of 98.6%,and Faraday efficiency of 97.5% at 1.45 V(vs.RHE),much superior to S-CoP.When applied as a bifunctional catalyst in the HMFOR coupled with hydrogen evolution reaction(HER)electrolyzer,H-CoP requires an ultralow voltage of 1.64 V to reach 10 mA·cm^(-2),with the cell voltage reduced by 190 mV compared to the conventional oxygen evolution reaction coupled with HER water splitting system.

文摘Constructing catalysts featuring an ordered structure,stable performance,and uniformly dispersed catalytic sites is vital for the epoxidation of small-molecular olefins.Here,we design catalysts by tracing the oxidationprocess origin and synthesize a series of highly dispersed metal porphyrin-based covalent organic frameworks(COFs)materials.The aim is to efficiently oxidize the C-H bonds of cumene by air to in-situ generate organic peroxides at a safe concentration,and integrate the multi-step oxidation method of cumene in industry into a one-step method for olefins’epoxidation.The carbonyl-ruthenium COF(Ru-COF-1)exhibits excellent performance,with 98% epoxide selectivity,1221.77 h^(-1) productivity,and over 95% selectivity after 9 cycles for 1-hexene.Analysis of structure-properties-catalytic relationships of Ru-COF-1 shows that,compared with Ru-porphyrins and metal-free COFs,the enhanced reaction performance mainly results from Ru metal introduction,which promotes benzylic proton transfer in cumene.Besides,Ru-COF-1’s porous,ordered structure aids oxygen enrichment,forming active peroxy radicals with the cumene carboncentered radicals formed on the catalyst surface.Ru-H sites then accelerate active oxygen transfer from peroxy radicals,enabling olefin tandem epoxidation.Density functional theory(DFT)calculations verify the reaction mechanism,and this work offers a reference for the design of catalysts for the green,safe,and efficient oxidation of olefins.

文摘TiB_(2)coatings can significantly enhance the high-temperature oxidation resistance of molybdenum,which would broaden the application range of molybdenum and alloys thereof.However,traditional methods for preparing TiB_(2)coatings have disadvantages such as high equipment costs,complicated processes,and highly toxic gas emissions.This paper proposes an environmentally friendly method,which requires inexpensive equipment and simple processing,for preparing TiB_(2)coating on molybdenum via electrophoretic deposition within Na3AlF6-based molten salts.The produced TiB_(2)layer had an approximate thickness of 60μm and exhibited high density,outstanding hardness(38.2 GPa)and robust adhesion strength(51 N).Additionally,high-temperature oxidation experiments revealed that,at900℃,the TiB_(2)coating provided effective protection to the molybdenum substrate against oxidation for 3 h.This result indicates that the TiB_(2)coating prepared on molybdenum using molten salt electrophoretic deposition possesses good high-temperature oxidation resistance.

文摘Investigating structural and hydroxyl group effects in electrooxidation of alcohols to value-added products by solid-acid electrocatalysts is essential for upgrading biomass alcohols.Herein,we report efficient electrocatalytic oxidations of saturated alcohols(C_(1)-C_(6))to selectively form formate using Ni Co hydroxide(Ni Co-OH)derived Ni Co_(2)O_(4)solid-acid electrocatalysts with balanced Lewis acid(LASs)and Brønsted acid sites(BASs).Thermal treatment transforms BASs-rich(89.6%)Ni Co-OH into Ni Co_(2)O_(4)with nearly equal distribution of LASs(53.1%)and BASs(46.9%)which synergistically promote adsorption and activation of OH-and alcohol molecules for enhanced oxidation activity.In contrast,BASs-enriched Ni Co-OH facilitates formation of higher valence metal sites,beneficial for water oxidation.The combined experimental studies and theoretical calculation imply the oxidation ability of C1-C6alcohols increases as increased number of hydroxyl groups and decreased HOMO-LUMO gaps:methanol(C_(1))<ethylene glycol(C_(2))<glycerol(C3)<meso-erythritol(C4)<xylitol(C5)<sorbitol(C6),while the formate selectivity shows the opposite trend from 100 to 80%.This study unveils synergistic roles of LASs and BASs,as well as hydroxyl group effect in electro-upgrading of alcohols using solid-acid electrocatalysts.

文摘The objective of this study was to investigate the correlations between antioxidations and the contents of the total phenolics and anthocyanin in 127 accessions of black soybean. A T-test, a fast clustering procedure, and a correlation coefficient analysis were used for experimentation. The variation ranges of the total antioxidant capacity (TAC), the total phenolics, and anthocyanin contents in 127 black soybean accessions were 0.44-3.56, 7.05-74.82, and 0.22-1.87 mg g-l, respectively, displaying significant genotype differences. The major differences in TAC, the total phenolics, and the anthocyanin contents existed among various types of accessions from geographical regions.

文摘The antioxidations and their correlations with total flavones and anthocyanin contents in different black rice varieties were studied. The results indicated that the great differences in total antioxidant capacity (TAC), scavenging free radical capacity (SFRC), total flavones and anthocyanin contents existed among 242 black rice varieties. Comparisons of TAC, SFRC, total flavones and anthocyanin contents of different black rice types showed that the differences between black rice and white rice, indica one and japonica one, and nonglutinous one and glutinous one were significant at 0.01 levels, respectively. This showed that the TAC, SFRC, total flavones and anthocyanin contents of japonica type were higher than those of indica one, and nonglutinous type were higher than glutinous one. According to the fast clustering procedure, 242 black rice varieties could be clustered into 10 clusters, 184 indica rice varieties into 10 clusters, and 58 japonica rice varieties into 6 clusters. Most significant (P〈0.01) correlations existed between TAC and total flavones and anthocyanin contents, and between SFRC and total flavones and anthocyanin contents of black rice, respectively. This showed that the antioxidation of black rice was closely correlated with its active compositions of flavones and anthocyanin.
