A conceptually novel nanoparticle-supported and magnetically recoverable organocatalyst has been developed, which is readily prepared from inexpensive starting materials in a truly sustainable manner; which catalyzes the Paal-Knorr reaction with high yield in pure aqueous medium that avoids the use of toxic organic solvents, even in the workup step.

A new binaphthylbisbipyridine-based ligand underwent diastereoselective self-assembly with silver(I) ions to form nanotubular homochiral helical coordination polymers, which further hierarchically self-assemble into nanofibers, capable of immobilizing organic solvents.

Suitable conditions for protein crystallization are commonly identified by screening combinations of independent factors that affect crystal formation. Because precipitating agents are prime determinants of crystallization, we investigated whether a systematic exploration of combinations of mechanistically distinct precipitants would enhance crystallization. A crystallization screen containing ...

This paper reviews some illustrative examples of studies of human neurobehavioral effects from experimental as well as long-term occupational organic-solvent exposure. My objective is to present a selection of neurobehavioral solvent studies with the educational aim that we may hopefully learn from the early experiences of others. Some of the methodological problems encountered in these studies...

introduction: food consumption patterns are changing as a result of health and environmental issues. subsequently, farmers are under increasing pressure to develop and utilize less toxic production methods and pest control. organic agriculture is a production system that sustains the health of soils, ecosystems, and people. it relies on ecological processes, biodiversity, and cycles adapted to ...

Recently, the quality and safety of organic products is the topic of prime concern. While this demand increases since consumer considers organic products are healthier and harmless than conventional products. In the country like India, organic agricultural is not novel and are effectively performs in varied climates such as tribal mountains, mountainous areas and rain-fed zones of the country. ...

regard to increasing demand for organic agricultural products, awareness of costs and profitability of organic products can help to decision planners of agricultural sector, and particularly farmers. this study has tried to calculate cost and profitability of cotton product in two different conventional and organic ways (procedure) of production using 253 cross-sectional data from khorasan raza...

A strategic approach for the design of two-phase partitioning bioscrubbers (TPPBs) has been formulated using, as a basis, a re-evaluation of extensive literature data available for the degradation of benzene by Achromobacter xylosoxidans Y234 in TPPBs with n-hexadecane as the partitioning phase. Using a previously determined maintenance coefficient for benzene, we determined that an inlet benze...
