The bioactive chemical contents of Neem stem bark were isolated, separated, and studied to determine the presence of vitamins, vital minerals, and trace metals. A fresh Neem sample was collected and the sample was ground into powdered form and prepared via extraction using various solvents (n-hexane, ethyl acetate, and ethanol), and the chemical constituents were separated using the GC/MS technique. The Neem stem sample was later digested with nitric acid and hydrogen peroxide in the ratio 4:1 (acid ratio). The trace metals and important minerals in digested Neem samples were determined using an atomic absorption spectrophotometer (AAS), while Na+ and K+ were determined using a flame photometer. The results revealed that calcium is the most prevalent mineral in Neem stem bark, followed by potassium and sodium, but copper, magnesium, iron, zinc, and other minerals are present in trace amounts, while cadmium and lead are virtually missing. Furthermore, according to the results of the vitamin studies, the most abundant vitamins in Neem stem bark are vitamin B3 and vitamin C, but vitamins A, B1, B6, and B12 are present in trace amounts.","PeriodicalId":11449,"journal":{"name":"Earthline Journal of Chemical Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-05-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140990073","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Agro-industrial wastes are increasingly used as substrates for laccase production from white rot fungi through solid-state fermentation (SSF). Peanut shell (PS) is an attractive substrate for laccase production, and SSF is an adequate strategy for that purpose. It has been employed as a novel support-substrate for laccase production by Polyporus ciliatus under solid-state fermentation. The highest laccase yield of 1260 U/ml was attained using PS after 13 days of incubation at 30°C. The purified laccase (55 kDa) showed maximum activity at pH 3 and 60°C. The extracellular laccase enzyme was purified 67.6-fold to a specific activity of 1466 U/mg by a Mono-Q anion-exchange column. The purified enzyme Km value was found to be 24 µM, while the Vmax value was observed to be 0.96 µM s-1 with ABTS as a substrate. It had high thermotolerance and pH stability and was resistant to several metal ions including copper, cadmium, and iron. P. ciliatus pure laccase showed high potential for the decolorization and detoxification of the reactive sulfonated azoic dye Direct Blue 71, which suggested that this enzyme could be used for textile effluent treatment.","PeriodicalId":11449,"journal":{"name":"Earthline Journal of Chemical Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-04-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140705667","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The triazolone considered is the precursor of NTO in various methods. It may exhibit 1,3-proton tautomerism. Various energies, QASR, quantum chemical and spectral properties have been harvested and discussed. All the considered species have exothermic heat of formation and favorable Gibbs free energy of formation values at the standard states and they are stable electronically. Although most of the composites considered exhibit a directed interaction between their partners, one of them possesses perpendicular (T-type) orientation. Certain hydrogen bondings between the tautomers and NTO occur at different extents, depending on the particular tautomer involved in the composite. Both of the components have hydrogen bond donor and acceptor properties except composite NTO+T2, in which the tautomer is the hydrogen bond donor and NTO is the acceptor. The tautomers absorb in the UV region of the spectrum like NTO, whereas in all the composites appreciable changes in the appearance of the spectra happen and certain degree of bathochromic effect occurs as compared to the respective spectra of the partners.","PeriodicalId":11449,"journal":{"name":"Earthline Journal of Chemical Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138982563","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Renewable energy from biomass is one such opportunity. The aim of this study is to model the production of biogas from the anaerobic digestion of plantain and yam peelings and cattle dung. A characterisation of these residues showed their good suitability for methanisation with good moisture contents (˃70%), high volatile solids contents (˃75%) and C/N ratios of between 20 and 30. In addition, methanisation trials under mesophilic conditions following a mixing plan generated quantities of biogas ranging from 128 to 565 mL with CH4 contents of between 54.03 and 72.98%. The digester made up of 1/6 plantain peels + 2/3 yam peels + 1/6 cattle dung gave the best biogas yield with 565 mL for 67.52% CH4. The model established from these results is highly significant with an F value (1268.01) having a probability significantly lower than 0.05. In addition to the coefficients R2 (0.9994) and R2 (0.9986) which adjust are very close to unity, there is a good correlation between the experimental results and those predicted. This prediction model is therefore reliable for explaining biogas production. However, further study of the kinetics of anaerobic digestion and biogas treatment remains important.","PeriodicalId":11449,"journal":{"name":"Earthline Journal of Chemical Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"138589898","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Compound 1 crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21/c with a = 23.4137(12) Å, b = 11.2525(6) Å, c = 20.2719(11) Å, β = 100.461(2)°, V = 5252.1(5) Å3, Z = 4 and Z’ = 1. The XRD discloses that the polymorph reported in this work is the full molecule which does not crystallize about any inversion center. Complex 1 exhibits a tetranuclear organotin(IV) ladder-like structure containing two external chlorides. The tetranuclear structure is comprised of a three-rung-staircase Sn4O4 cluster which consists of a ladder of four Sn2O2 units. The central Sn2O2 core forms dihedral angles of 4.00(7)° and 1.62(8)° with its two fused four-membered rings, describing a slightly bent ladder. This folding is further noticed with the dihedral angle between the two external Sn2O2 cores of 4.65(8)°. In the structure, two types of distorted trigonal bipyramid geometry at tin centers like-arrangement are disclosed. The most Sn–O bridges bond lengths describe a static trans effect affording dissymmetrical bonds. The dimethylformamide solvate molecules form a dihedral angle of 74.5(2)° and are interlinked to the tetranuclear organotin(IV) ladder via O–H···O hydrogen bond patterns. Additional inner C–H···Cl and C–H···O hydrogen bonds as well the C–H···O interactions are present. Moreover, the intermolecular C–H···O hydrogen bonds do not contribute to direct the crystal structure framework; they do not play an important function in forming a supramolecular architecture.","PeriodicalId":11449,"journal":{"name":"Earthline Journal of Chemical Sciences","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"139253570","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
