Balanced Crystalloids Versus Normal Saline in Kidney Transplant Patients: An Updated Systematic Review, Meta-analysis, and Trial Sequential Analysis
CONCLUSIONS: Balanced lower-chloride solutions significantly reduce the occurrence of DGF and provide an improved acid-base and electrolyte control in patients undergoing kidney transplantation.PMID:38578867 | DOI:10.1213/ANE.0000000000006932 (Source: Anesthesia and Analgesia)

Zinc oxide nanoparticles influence on plant tolerance to salinity stress: insights into physiological, biochemical, and molecular responses
AbstractA slight variation in ecological milieu of plants, like drought, heavy metal toxicity, abrupt changes in temperature, flood, and salt stress disturbs the usual homeostasis or metabolism in plants. Among these stresses, salinity stress is particularly detrimental to the plants, leading to toxic effects and reduce crop productivity. In a saline environment, the accumulation of sodium and chloride ions up to toxic levels significantly correlates with intracellular osmotic pressure, and can result in morphological, physiological, and molecular alterations in plants. Increased soil salinity triggers salt stress signals ...

Membrane-based inverse-transition purification facilitates a rapid isolation of various spider-silk elastin-like polypeptide fusion proteins from extracts of transgenic tobacco
Transgenic Res. 2024 Apr 4. doi: 10.1007/s11248-024-00375-z. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTPlants can produce complex pharmaceutical and technical proteins. Spider silk proteins are one example of the latter and can be used, for example, as compounds for high-performance textiles or wound dressings. If genetically fused to elastin-like polypeptides (ELPs), the silk proteins can be reversibly precipitated from clarified plant extracts at moderate temperatures of ~ 30 °C together with salt concentrations > 1.5 M, which simplifies purification and thus reduces costs. However, the technologies developed around this mechani...

Dissolution of cellulose in imidazolium-based double salt ionic liquids
Int J Biol Macromol. 2024 Apr 2:131331. doi: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.131331. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe dissolution of cellulose in double salt ionic liquids (DSILs) was studied in detail and compared with the dissolution in individual constituent ionic liquids (ILs). The DSILs, [C4mim](CH3CO2)xCl1-x (x is the mole fraction of the single component ILs), were synthesized using acetate and chloride salts of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium. These DSILs were then used for the investigation of the solubility of cellulose in the whole mole fraction range. Commercial cellulose (CC) powder, kraft pulp (KP), and prehydrolysis kr...

Chloride ions in health and disease
Biosci Rep. 2024 Apr 4:BSR20240029. doi: 10.1042/BSR20240029. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTChloride is a key anion involved in cellular physiology by regulating its homeostasis and rheostatic processes. Changes in cellular Cl- concentration result in differential regulation of cellular functions such as transcription and translation, post-translation modifications, cell cycle and proliferation, cell volume, and pH levels. In intracellular compartments, Cl- modulates the function of lysosomes, mitochondria, endosomes, phagosomes, the nucleus, and the endoplasmic reticulum. In extracellular fluid (ECF), Cl- is present in bl...

Optimizing invasive plant biomass valorization: Deep eutectic solvents pre-treatment coupled with ZSM-5 catalyzed fast pyrolysis for superior bio-oil quality
Bioresour Technol. 2024 Apr 2:130652. doi: 10.1016/j.biortech.2024.130652. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTThe primary objective of this study is to explore the application of a deep eutectic solvent, synthesized from lactic acid and choline chloride, in combination with a pre-treatment involving ZSM-5 catalytic fast pyrolysis, aimed at upgrading the quality of bio-oil. Characterization results demonstrate a reduction in lignin content post-treatment, alongside a significant decrease in carboxyls and carbonyls, leading to an increase in the C/O ratio and noticeable enhancement in crystallinity. During catalytic fast pyrolysi...

Formation mechanism of a novel core-shell with tetradecyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium-modified montmorillonite interlayer nanofibrous membrane and its antimicrobial properties
Colloids Surf B Biointerfaces. 2024 Mar 31;238:113889. doi: 10.1016/j.colsurfb.2024.113889. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA novel core-shell with a tetradecyl dimethyl benzyl ammonium chloride-modified montmorillonite (TDMBA/MMT) interlayer silk fibroin (SF)/poly(lactic acid) (PLLA) nanofibrous membrane was fabricated using a simple conventional electrospinning method. Scanning electron microscopy and pore size analyses revealed that this core-shell with TDMBA/MMT interlayer maintained its nanofibrous morphology and larger pore structure more successfully than SF/PLLA nanofibrous membranes after treatment with 75% ethanol ...
