Fabrication of Nano-Silver Composite Using Amomum longiligulare Fruit Polysaccharides and Their Biological Activities by Lian Y, Ma N, Cheng Q, Luo M, Xu Z, He F, Zhou X, Zhang Y, Jin D, Kong Y, Wang Y, Wei N

“…Finally, the in vitro antioxidant activity, antibacterial activity and anticancer activity of the nano-silver composite were evaluated.Results: Single-factor experiments identified the optimal synthesis conditions for ALP(D)-AgNPs as a reaction time of 180 min, a temperature of 100 °C, and a 10:1 volume ratio of silver nitrate to ALP-D. The free radical scavenging activity of ALP(D)-AgNPs against DPPH and ABTS was significantly enhanced compared with that of ALP-D. …”

Comparison of different drying processes of Morchella sextelata: Changes in volatile and non-volatile components, color and texture by Yaxuan Liao, Mengdi Xin, Hao Dong, Yuxing Liu, Lingling Li, Xinyong Guo, Shaobo Cheng, Guogang Chen

“…In addition, the equivalent umami concentration (1293.20 g MSG/100 g) and total aroma compound content (2,533,403 μg/kg) for HAD-MVD were significantly higher than that for VFD, and the content of non-volatile substances such as soluble sugars, 5′-nucleotides, and total free amino acids were also high. Therefore, HAD-MVD represents an economic and more environmentally benign solution for the commercial processing of M. sextelata.…”

Strain rebound and inhomogeneity in glass-to-metal seals: Radial vs axial strain evolution by Keqian Gong, Zheng Liu, Zifeng Song, Chao Zhou, Zhangjing Shi, Siyue Nie, Weisong Zhou, He Yan, Zhichun Fan, Yong Zhang

“…Notably, axial strain froze earlier than radial strain (590 °C vs 575 °C): a counterintuitive finding attributed to free volume (FV) dynamics within the glass. Both directions exhibited pronounced strain rebound at lower temperatures, driven by the accumulation of smaller rebound events, effectively explained by FV theory. …”
