What causes the low viscosity of ether-functionalized ionic liquids? Its dependence on the increase of free volume by Chen, Zhengjian, Xue, Tong, Lee, Jong-Min

“…In addition to the ability of the alkoxy chains to decrease viscosity (ηO/η, as low as 0.594) and its activation energy (ΔEη, as low as -4.14 kJ mol−1), they were also found to be able to increase the total free volume (ΔFVO, up to 4.93 mL mol−1), by using density and surface tension. …”

Narrowing the gap between machine learning scoring functions and free energy perturbation using augmented data by Valsson, Í, Warren, MT, Deane, CM, Magarkar, A, Morris, GM, Biggin, PC

“…We benchmark our model on this set, CASF-2016, and a test set used for free energy perturbation (FEP) calculations, that not only highlights the competitive performance of AEV-PLIG, but provides a realistic assessment of machine learning models with rigorous physics-based approaches. …”

Changes in microbial and physicochemical properties during free-cell and encapsulated probiotic fermentation of red dragon fruit juice by Ong, Yien Yien

“…The results of probiotic microencapsulation was promising in which lesser viability loss of probiotic (0.5 log cfu/g) was observed in red pitaya juice fermented with encapsulated L. casei after 4 week storage at 4oC when comparing to free cell L. casei fermented juice. The viability loss of encapsulated probiotic in red dragon fruit juice can be further improved with 1% (w/v) calcium alginate beads with 107 to 109 cfu/g of probiotic in the beads. …”

Selective and Chemical-Free Removal of Toxic Heavy Metal Cations from Water Using Shock Ion Extraction by Alkhadra, Mohammad A, Jordan, Matthew L, Tian, Huanhuan, Arges, Christopher G, Bazant, Martin Z

“…In this study, we developed a new process called shock ion extraction (shock IX) for selective and chemical-free removal of toxic heavy metals from water. Shock IX is a hybrid process that combines shock electrodialysis (shock ED) and ion exchange using an ion exchange resin wafer (IERW), and this method can be thought of functionally as an electrochemically assisted variation of traditional ion exchange. …”
