Abstract
The synthesis of optimized thin film nanocomposite (TFN) membrane with no or few defects is an efficacious method which can improve nanofiltration performance. However, poor dispersion of fillers in the organic phase and wrong compatibility between fillers and polymerizate are still a serious problem. In this study, the particle size of metal organic framework (MOF), aluminum-based metal-organic frameworks (CAU-1) was modulated and for the first time, dodecyl aldehyde was used to modify the surface hydrophobicity of CAU-1, which improved the dispersibility and inhibited the aggregation in the trimesoyl chloride (TMC)/n-hexane solution; later CAU-1 and modified CAU-1 were incorporated into the polyamide (PA) selective layer to synthesize TFN membrane by interfacial polymerization (IP). The particle size modulation and modification of the CAU-1 were demonstrated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) characterization. The characterization showed that PA selective layer was synthesized on the top layer of polysulfone (PSF) substrate. The pure water flux of the TFN membrane was increased to 79.89 ± 1.24 L·m−2·h−1·bar−1 compared to the original thin film composite (TFC) membrane, which was due to the polymerization of 100 nm modified CAU-1 on the PA layer to form a new water molecular channel, thus increasing the water flux by about 70%.

Published: November 2022

Abstract:
A chymotrypsin inhibitor 2 variant, CI2(G83D), was expressed as a fusion with fd minor coat protein, pili, via a flexible linker (Gly-Ala 3) and displayed on the surface of bacteriophage. Biopanning with immobilised subtilisin BPN' demonstrated that the inhibitor-displaying phage could be selectively enriched 13-fold over control phage in one round of affinity purification. The inhibitor (incorporating the linker sequence) was also expressed as soluble protein in E. coli and purified to homogeneity. Kinetic analysis revealed the displayed inhibitor possesses inhibition characteristics that approximate those of this soluble inhibitor. The results demonstrate that functionally active inhibitor can be displayed on the phage surface. Further use of this technology should facilitate the selection of remodelled inhibitor variants exhibiting novel protease binding specificities.

Published: November 2022

Background:
Social distancing as a preventive measure to contain the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in many people working from home, using online digital resources. Staying at home has led to the adaptation of many work activities to allow continuity of people´s jobs. It can also affect home routines and ways of working, thereby leading to changes in behavior, as the main interest of this study.

Objective:
The study aimed to assess the impact on human behavior of working conditions in home office format due to social distancing.

Methods:
Data collection was done online, using a specific computational tool (Google Forms) for this type of research, using the Home Office Work Scale (HOWS) validated and published in Mental Health and Addiction Research in 2021, with a total sample of 1,056 valid questionnaires. After the data collection, a database was created for statistical analysis of the results.

Results:
More women than men volunteered to answer the questionnaire, although the results were similar between women and men. Home office work has impacts on human behavior and results in changes in routines and adaptations in people´s personal and professional lives.

Conclusion:
Proportionally, more women participated, and there was low participation by young and elderly people. In general, people accepted home office work and the possibility of continuing to work in this format. Changes to routines and restrictive adaptations were necessary. The limitations reported for applying the scale did not compromise the results.

Published: November 2022

Introduction:
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), an endocrine glands disorder, caused by hormonal imbalance, is featured by diverse potential effects for women; while individuals perpend to those that are affecting appearance and menstruation disorder. Our aim was to assess PCOS risk factors in working women.

Materials and Methods:
The study was carried out as a literature review work through searching databases including Scopus, PubMed, and ScienceDirect for papers published before December 2019. The databases were searched for the terms such as PCO, job stress, and risk factors of PCO. Risk factors for polycystic ovarian syndrome and occupational risk factors for working women were investigated.

Results and Discussion:
There are several reasons known for PCOS like obesity and insulin resistance along with the stressors that increase its risk. Working women tend to be exposed to several stressors and being in charge of home affairs creates a higher workload and intensified stresses. The risk of PCOS is higher in women with higher stressors at work.

Conclusions:
Working women experience many stressors and taking into account that stress is a precursor or intensifier of PCOS risk factors, working women are at a higher risk of PCOS compared with housewives.
New high performance starch based emulsifiers using amylose inclusion complexes

Published: November 2022

High value amylose inclusion complexes can be formed when corn starch (having 70% amylose) is gelatinized in the presence of hydrophobic ligands. As the components cool, the amylose wraps around the ligand to form an amylose inclusion complex (AIC). The properties of the AIC will be dependent on the selection of the ligand and the amount of amylose. AIC formed from fatty sodium/amine salts were found to be effective non-foaming emulsifiers. These AIC fatty acid/amine salts were produced using either steam jet cooking or microwave techniques. Various fatty acid/amine salts (C10-22) were produced and evaluated. Colloidal suspensions were produced using the AIC at concentrations of 0.1-3% solids, and their surface and rheological properties were then characterized. The AICs successfully formed stable emulsions with corn and other oils. The emulsification properties of the AIC is dependent on pH. Superior emulsifying activity at neutral and alkaline pH were obtained for fatty acid salt AICs when compared with commercial octenyl succinic anhydride (OSA) starch. The fatty amine salt AICs were superior at neutral and acidic pH with compared to OSA starch. Emulsions formed with the AIC were stable during long-term storage as the oil droplets were resistant to coalescence. Emulsion stability increased with ligand chain length due to viscosity differences (higher molecular weight ligand AICs have greater viscosity). The AIC are effective emulsifiers produced from readily available inexpensive ingredients (some food grade) formed via association rather than chemical bonds using current inexpensive industrial techniques.
Biosurfactants and biopolymers: Between interactions, orthogonality and mutual responsivity

Published: November 2022

Polymer-surfactant systems have many applications in everyday life, but their petrochemical origin is not only controversial but soon submitted to regulatory restrictions. In a more environmentally friendly approach, but also to forecast regulations in both EU and USA, biopolymer-biosurfactant systems are an interesting alternative. There exists a large family of both biobased surfactants and polymers, which possess a huge potential, however currently limited, because both the solution behaviour of the former and their interactions are not established, yet. [1] This presentation shows the first set of work where biosurfactants (sophorolipids, glucolipids) are studied together with biopolymers (chitosan, alginate, gelatin, collagen, silk fibroin) (Figure 1). The results are astonishing, as they depend on the biosurfactant's self-assembled state, but also its charge and the charge of the biopolymer. Complex coacervates are often formed at basic pH when biosurfactants are within their micellar state and charges are opposite. [2] At acidic pH, orthogonality seems to prevail when the biosurfactant reorganizes into crystalline fibers, [3] but new phases, derived from mutual electrostatic interactions, can also appear, when the biosurfactants forms a vesicular phase. [4] These data are important to design biosurfactant-biopolymer-based nanocarriers or stimuli-responsive hydrogels. [1] Baccile N, Seyrig C, et al.

Research shows that people are increasingly valuing quality of life, for which reducing housework is key. In laundry, one challenge is stubborn stains like permanent marker and collar/cuff darkening/yellowing. While a common solution is to apply detergent directly to such stains, this takes time, effort (scrubbing), and often does not remove satisfactorily. Although more surfactant in detergent generally produces higher detergency, Alcohol Ethoxylate changes to hexagonal phase when its concentration reaches 30%, limiting surfactant concentration. Alternatively, Methyl Ester Ethoxylate (MEE) has a bent molecular geometry, keeping it in lamellar phase when 30-70% concentrated, so we examined its potential to increase surfactant concentration.We first tested MEE's effectiveness on permanent marker stains. After applying a 30% MEE solution and leaving it for 30 minutes, detergency was 30% and the fabric did not appear clean. Yellowing or permanent marker stains are caused by polymerized sebum and resin components, so we theorized that surfactant alone could not fully emulsify them. Hence, we switched focus to the solubility parameter (SP value). When we applied an agent with a similar SP value as the permanent marker stain together with the detergent and left it for 30 minutes, detergency increased to around 40%. Furthermore, after extending application time to 6-12 hours, the detergency of applying surfactant alone increased to 70%, but the combination of agent and extended application time increased it to 85%, achieving an overwhelmingly clean appearance. This suggests that detergency factors include effectiveness of application time and polarity transformation due to water volatilization. Therefore, we believe that extended application of MEE is a simple method to achieve thorough cleanliness, which can reduce housework. In this report, we discuss stain dissolution after detergent application and the corresponding change of detergent state during extended application. We also report on application examples incorporating washing machine programs.

Published: November 2022

BackgroundThe physical and cognitive loads borne during exergaming may differ from more conventional cognitive-motor dual-task trainings.ObjectiveThe aim of this pilot transversal study was to compare objectively measured and perceived exercise intensity during exergame, cognitive-motor dual-task, and single-task training sessions.MethodsWe recruited apparently healthy young adults who carried out one session of each type of training: exergaming, cognitive-motor dual-tasking, and single-tasking. We used a custom-made exergame as support. The sessions lasted 30 minutes, were spaced at least 24 hours apart, and took place in random order for each group of 4 participants. We used heart rates to assess exercise intensity and the modified Borg scale to assess perception of intensity. In all, 16 apparently healthy young participants carried out all sessions.ResultsThere was no difference between the different types of training in mean heart rates (P=.27), peak heart rates (P=.50), or Borg scale scores (P=.40). Our custom-made exergame’s objectively measured and perceived physical load did not differ between cognitive-motor dual-task and single-task training.ConclusionsAs a result, our exergame can be considered to be as challenging as more traditional physical training. Future studies should be conducted in older adults with or without cognitive impairments and incorporate an assessment of cognitive performance.
