Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are a relatively new topic in science. Their usage is not yet clearly defined, and the areas in which DESs may be applied are constantly growing. A simple and clean fractionation of the main components of biomass represents a very important step in creating a clean, renewable carbon economy. A major challenge is the use of DESs for fractionation of biomass components at lower temperatures, without the use of expensive raw materials. In this work, wheat straw was pretreated with six different DES systems composed of choline chloride with urea (1:2), malonic acid (1:1), lactic (1:9; 1:10), malic (1:1), and oxalic acid (1:1). The pretreated biomass was characterized in terms of lignin content, ash, and holocellulose. A deep eutectic solvent, composed of choline chloride and oxalic acid, was found to produce the best delignification results. The solvents are not selective in the process of delignification.

The pH Behavior of Seventeen Deep Eutectic SolventsMichal Jablonsky
Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) are a unique category of green solvents that have gained attention in biomass processing due to their distinctive properties not offered by traditional solvents. The pH behavior of 17 selected DESs along with their temperature dependence on pH were evaluated in this study. For all investigated DESs, a temperature increase caused a decrease in pH value.
Batch adsorption experiments were carried out for
the adsorption of cationic dye from aqueous solution onto
composite activated carbon. The composite activated carbon was
prepared from brewer’s spent grain and sea bean shell at a ratio
of 1:1. The equilibrium studies were done at different
concentrations and temperatures. The equilibrium data were
fitted to Langmuir, Freundlich, Dubinin-Radushkevich, and
Temkin isotherm models. The results showed that both Lagmuir
and Freundlich isotherm model fitted the data reasonably well
but Freundlich isotherm fitted better in the temperature range
studied. This confirmed that the adsorption is heterogeneous,
non-specific and non-uniform in nature. Kinetic studies were also
undertaken in terms of first order, second order, pseudo first
order, pseudo second order, Elovich, Boyd, and intra-particle
diffusion models. The results indicated that the data followed
pseudo second order model with surface adsorption and intraparticle
diffusion concurrently operating during the adsorbateadsorbent
interaction. The values of the thermodynamic
parameters computed from Van’t Hoff plot confirmed the
process to be endothermic and spontaneous in nature.
Natural Deep Eutectic Solvents as Agents for Improving Solubility, Stability ...Maciej Przybyłek
Purpose
Study on curcumin dissolved in natural deep eutectic solvents (NADES) was aimed at exploiting their beneficial properties as drug carriers.
Methods
The concentration of dissolved curcumin in NADES was measured. Simulated gastrointestinal fluids were used to determine the concentration of curcumin and quantum chemistry computations were performed for clarifying the origin of curcumin solubility enhancement in NADES.
Results
NADES comprising choline chloride and glycerol had the highest potential for curcumin dissolution. This system was also successfully applied as an extraction medium for obtaining curcuminoids from natural sources, as well as an effective stabilizer preventing curcumin degradation from sunlight. The solubility of curcumin in simulated gastrointestinal fluids revealed that the significant increase of bioavailability takes place in the small intestinal fluid.
Conclusions
Suspension of curcumin in NADES offers beneficial properties of this new liquid drug formulation starting from excreting from natural sources, through safe storage and ending on the final administration route. Therefore, there is a possibility of using a one-step process with this medium. The performed quantum chemistry computations clearly indicated the origin of the enhanced solubility of curcumin in NADES in the presence of intestinal fluids. Direct intermolecular contacts leading to hetero-molecular pairs with choline chloride and glycerol are responsible for elevating the bulk concentration of curcumin. Choline chloride plays a dominant role in the system and the complexes formed with curcumin are the most stable among all possible homo- and hetero-molecular pairs that can be found in NADES-curcumin systems.
Effect of concentration on structural and optical properties of cu s thin filmseSAT Journals
Abstract Thin films of Copper sulphide were deposited on glass substrates using chemical bath deposition technique at room temperature from the aqueous solution containing different concentration of copper sulphate between 0.05M and 0.15M. The effects of the copper concentration of the chemical bath on structural and optical properties of the amorphous thin film were investigated and discussed. The optical absorption and transmission of the thin films were observed between of 330-1100nm taken at room temperature. The optical band gaps of the as-synthesized copper sulphide thin film for various concentrations were measured. The surface morphology has been observed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). The results obtained from AFM demonstrated that the reflectivity was closely related to the surface roughness of the film. High surface roughness has a strong scattering effect on light and lowers the reflectivity. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns show that crystallinities of the films are dependent on the copper concentration in the solution. Keywords: Copper sulphide, CBD; XRD; AFM; SEM; Thin films

The current research aimed at fabricating plant extract mediated biosynthesized silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) utilizing thorn extract of Bombax ceiba (TEBC). The synthesized AgNPs was characterized by UV spectroscopy where the surface plasmonic resonance peak (SPR) was located at 222 nm. The scanning electron microscopy (SEM) studies demonstrated that the morphology of fabricated nanomaterials was primarily cylindrical of average size of 20-30 nm with some spindles of size >50 nm. The anti-microbial evaluation against Staphylococcus aureus revealed that AgNPs exhibited notable activity with ZOI of 27.2 mm at MIC of 25 μg/mL. The outcome of this research evidently signified that the biofabricated AgNPs using TEBC may be a new greener approach or technology to formulate anti-bacterial nanodrugs in future.

Abstract
A rapid advance of nanotechnology has the potential approach for significant improvements in disease prevention, diagnosis and treatment. In this article, we report a simple and eco-friendly biosynthesis of silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs) using silver nitrate as metal precursor in Curcuma longa. These Ag-NPs were characterized by UV–vis spectroscopy, and Transmission electron microscopy (TEM). These nanoparticles exhibited maximum absorbance in specific nano meter range in UV–vis spectroscopy. TEM micrographs revealed the formation of well-dispersed Ag-NPs with its size and morphology. Microbiology assay founds that Ag-NPs are effective against V.cholera bacteria. These developments raise exciting opportunities to diagnose and treat pathogenic mode of infection based on the various profiles to target diseases.

Abstract Single crystals of glycine sodium sulfate (GSS), a new semi-organic nonlinear optical (NLO) material, have been grown by the free evaporation method and characterized chemically, structurally, thermally, optically and mechanically. Effect of Ni2+ addition as an impurity on the properties of GSS has also been investigated. X-ray diffraction analysis indicates the crystal system as monoclinic. The functional groups have been identified using Fourier transform infrared spectral analysis. The crystals are found to be thermally stable up to 250˚C. The UV-Vis-NIR spectral analysis shows that these crystals have their cut off wavelengths around 250nm. Second harmonic generation (SHG) measurement shows the NLO property. Micro hardness measurement indicates that GSS comes under soft material category. The Ni2+ addition is found to increase the optical transparency and micro hardness whereas it decreases the second harmonic generation efficiency. Keywords: Crystal growth, Thermal properties, Mechanical properties, Optical properties, X-ray diffraction
Role of salt precursor in the synthesis of zinc oxide nanoparticleseSAT Journals
Abstract In this paper, Zinc oxide nanoparticles having wurtzite crystalline structure are synthesized. The temperature, base concentration and the salt precursor used for the synthesis affects the morphology and particle size. The synthesized nanoparticles are characterized by X-ray diffraction, Scanning electron microscopy and Diffused reflectance UV-visible spectroscopy. As the temperature is increased from 800 C to 1000C, keeping the concentration of the base viz sodium hydroxide at 5M, the particle size increases from 30nm to 500nm. With change in base concentration from 2M to 10M, at constant reaction temperature of 800C, the particle size increases from 30 nm to 500 nm. Herein the precursor used is zinc chloride. The effect of salt precursor is studied for three different salt precursors, viz. zinc chloride, zinc nitrate and zinc acetate. This paper is an attempt to give the information about salt precursor to be used, optimum values of temperature and base concentration for synthesis of the ZnO nanoparticles with enhanced antibacterial property for suitable biomedical application. Keywords: Zinc Oxide nanoparticles, metal oxide nanoparticles, nanotechnology.

Synthesis of 2-aminocyclopent-1-ene-1-carbodithioic acid (ACA) Capped Silver ...IJERA Editor
The present work deals with the formation, morphology and photophysical activity of the 2-aminocyclopent-1-ene-1-carbodithioic acid (ACA) Capped Silver nanoparticles via chemical reduction method. The method utilizes a simple chemical reaction of silver idodide and sodium borohydride. The advantages of this method are ease of preparation, convenience in use and especially, that the obtained silver nano particles are uniform in their shapes and sizes. This is important for fluorescence & bio-evolution measurements. Furthermore, UV-visible (UV-vis) spectroscopy is employed to monitor the formation process of the nano particles and to determine the optimum conditions for the preparation of stable and highly fluorescence-active silver colloids. Specifically, we observed changes in the shapes of the silver nano particles during the formation. This may be helpful in understanding the growth of the nano particles and creates a new dimension in controlling the shapes of the nano particles.SEM, TEM and XRD studies are carried out. The suitability of ACA capped Ag-NPs as Biomarkers is also Tested by Fluorescence study.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric

1. INTRODUCTION:
Gold nanoparticles (GNPs) play an imperative role in
chemistry and biology by virtue of a large surface-to-volume
ratio, quantum confinement, and other unique properties. Gold
nanoparticles consist of several kinds of interesting properties
[1, 2]. GNPs, with the diameter of 1-100 nm, have high
surface energy and high surface-to-volume ratio to endow
with a steady control of a large amount of biomolecules
retaining their bioactivity. Moreover, GNPs have a capability
to consent fast and direct electron transfer between a wide
range of electro active species and electrode materials. Gold
nanoparticles may potentially be another useful material for
removing contaminants, such as toxic chlorinated organic
compounds, pesticides and inorganic mercury, from water.
Gold Nanoparticles and Silver Nanoparticles or silver-silica
hybrid nanostructures have been used as biosensor substrates
are reported by numerous authors [3-5]. Recent review on
Gold Nanoparticles and their biomedical applications shows
vast growth in the field of biomedicine [6-9]. Gold
Nanoparticle possesses many excellent properties, such as
effortless reductive preparation, water solubility, high
chemical stability, and significant biocompatibility and
affinity [10].
The concentration of Chloropyrifos, cadusafos, diazinon,
prothiphos and malathion pesticides in fish samples from
different tributaries of the Nile River in Egypt was monitored
[11]. Sixteen microbial isolates capable of growing on
Dursban as a secondary substrate were isolated from three soil
and sewage water samples collected from different localities
polluted with pesticides. Biodegradation of organophosphate
pesticide chloropyrifos by Egyptian bacterial isolates [12].
Occurrence of 67 pesticides in the Lebanese waters. Chemical
analysis was performed by a solid-phase extraction followed
by a gas chromatography-mass spectrometry using
programmed temperature vaporization injection [13].
In this paper the author developed a novel method using Gold
Nanoparticles for the detection of Chlorpyrifos pesticides up
to ppb level present in various environmental water samples.
