Biotemplated Synthesis of Titanium Oxide Nanoparticles in the Presence of Root Extract of Kniphofia schemperi and Its Application for Dye Sensitized Solar Cells by Eneyew Tilahun Bekele, Enyew Amare Zereffa, Noto Susanto Gultom, Dong-Hau Kuo, Bedasa Abdisa Gonfa, Fedlu Kedir Sabir

“…TiO2 NPs were synthesized using 0.25 M titanium tetra butoxide in the presence of root extract of Kniphofia schemperi with the volume ratios. The analysis result revealed that the synthesized TiO2 NPs were thermally stable above 500°C and have spherical morphology, with the average crystalline size of 11.7, 8.3, and 8.6 nm, and band gap energy of 3.35 eV, 3.33 eV, and 3.36 eV, respectively, for the TiO2 NPs prepared at the volume ratios of 2 : 3, 1 : 1, and 3 : 2. …”

Water phase distribution and its dependence on internal structure in soaking maize kernels: a study using low-field nuclear magnetic resonance and X-ray micro-computed tomography by Baiyan Wang, Baiyan Wang, Shenghao Gu, Juan Wang, Guangtao Wang, Xinyu Guo, Chunjiang Zhao, Chunjiang Zhao

“…Although temporal dynamics of grain moisture and its functional and environmental determinants have been broadly demonstrated, we still do not have a comprehensive understanding of the distribution of water phase within a kernel.MethodsWe investigated the relationship between tissue structural traits, including embryo volume (EMBV), endosperm volume (ENDV), vitreous endosperm volume (VEV), floury endosperm volume (FEV), and water content in different phases, such as bound water, semi-bound water, and free water, in maize kernels under different cultivars, nitrogen application rates, and soaking durations by combining low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR) and X-ray microcomputed tomography (μ-CT) for kernels.ResultsThe results demonstrate that bound water is the major phase (57-82%) in maize kernels, and this proportion decreases with prolonged soaking duration. …”
