Hybrid organic–inorganic anatase (hybrid-TiO2) is prepared by a facile hydrothermal synthesis method employing citric acid. The synthetic approach results in a high surface-area nanocrystalline anatase polymorph of TiO2. The uncalcin

In this work, we found that inulin is soluble in ionic liquids (ILs) choline chloride (ChoCl)/oxalic acid and ChoCl/citric acid, which are prepared entirely from cheap and renewable materials. On the basis of this discovery, we conducted the one pot react

Cellulose and inulin, two important biomasses, can be transformed to polyols using bifunctional catalysts combining acid sites for hydrolysis and metal nanoparticles for hydrogenation. Here, we report that Ru nanoparticles loaded on a Keggin-type polyoxometalate, i.e., Cs3PW12O40, without intrinsic Bronsted acidity exhibit superior catalytic performances for the transformation of inulin and cellulose into hexitols in water in the presence of H2. We demonstrated that new Bronsted acid sites were generated from H2 on the Ru/Cs3PW12O40 catalyst. The H2-originated reversible Bronsted acid sites were robust during the transformation of biomass under hydrothermal conditions. We further found that the mean size of Ru nanoparticles determined the product selectivity in the conversion of inulin under H2. The catalyst with larger Ru nanoparticles favoured the formation of fructose, the hydrolysis product, while the major products were hexitols over the catalyst with a smaller Ru particle size. We clarified that, as compared to that of inulin hydrolysis, the rate of fructose hydrogenation increased more rapidly upon decreasing the Ru particle size.

The CO2-water system has the potential to serve as a substitute for mineral acids for some reactions in acidic media. In this work, two reactions under hydrothermal conditions with and without CO2 were studied - the conversion of inulin to 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (5-HMF), and the hydrolysis of propylene oxide to 1,2-propanediol (1,2-PDO). The effects of CO2 pressure, reaction temperature and reactant concentration on the yield of 5-HMF and 1,2-PDO were examined. It was demonstrated that CO 2 could increase the yields of 5-HMF and 1,2-PDO considerably under optimized conditions. The methods to prepare 5-HMF and 1,2-PDO are greener, in that conventional acids are not required and the solution is neutralized automatically after depressurization.

NMR for direct determination of Km and Vmax of enzyme reactions based on the Lambert W function-analysis of progress curves

1H NMR spectroscopy was used to follow the cleavage of sucrose by invertase. The parameters of the enzyme's kinetics, Km and V max, were directly determined from progress curves at only one concentration of the substrate. For comparison with the classical Michaelis-Menten analysis, the reaction progress was also monitored at various initial concentrations of 3.5 to 41.8 mM. Using the Lambert W function the parameters Km and Vmax were fitted to obtain the experimental progress curve and resulted in Km = 28 mM and V max = 13 μM/s. The result is almost identical to an initial rate analysis that, however, costs much more time and experimental effort. The effect of product inhibition was also investigated. Furthermore, we analyzed a much more complex reaction, the conversion of farnesyl diphosphate into (+)-germacrene D by the enzyme germacrene D synthase, yielding Km = 379 μM and kcat = 0.04 s- 1. The reaction involves an amphiphilic substrate forming micelles and a water insoluble product; using proper controls, the conversion can well be analyzed by the progress curve approach using the Lambert W function.
Two-step biosynthesis of D-allulose via a multienzyme cascade for the bioconversion of fruit juices

D-Allulose, a low-calorie rare sugar with potential as sucrose substitute for diabetics, can be produced using D-allulose 3-epimerase (DAE). Here, we characterized a putative thermostable DAE from Pirellula sp. SH-Sr6A (PsDAE), with a half-life of 6 h at 60 °C. Bioconversion of 500 g/L D-fructose using immobilized PsDAE on epoxy support yielded 152.7 g/L D-allulose, which maintained 80% of the initial activity after 11 reuse cycles. A multienzyme cascade system was developed to convert sucrose to D-allulose comprising sucrose invertase, D-glucose isomerase and PsDAE. Fruit juices were treated using this system to convert the high-calorie sugars, such as sucrose, D-glucose, and D-fructose, into D-allulose. The content of D-allulose among total monosaccharides in the treated fruit juice remained between 16 and 19% during 15 reaction cycles. This study provides an efficient strategy for the development of functional fruit juices containing D-allulose for diabetics and other special consumer categories.

The "concentration of functional groups, c,"was defined incorrectly on page S18 of the Supporting Information. The (Table Presented) correct definition is as follows: c is the concentration of functional groups of one of the two network components, assuming that both components are present in equal amounts. Therefore, in a network formed from tetrafunctional macromers (f = 4) and where the total molar concentration of macromers is [PEG], c = f [PEG]/2 = 4[PEG]/2 = 2[PEG]. In the original Supporting Information, we took c as the total concentration of functional groups in the network, resulting in c = 4[PEG]. This formula was incorrect and resulted in erroneous values for select Keq or Gp data reported in Table 1 (page 15374) and Figure 8 (page 15381). The corrected Table 1 and Figure 8 are shown below, and the SI has been corrected accordingly. In addition, some of these data that are quoted in the article should be changed as follows (with the corrected values highlighted in bold). On page 15374: "Keq,c = 37.5 when c = 0.02 M,""Keq was determined to be 540 ± 65. [?] corresponding to Gp = 10.9 ± 2.0 kPa,"and "Keq was quantified as 277 ± 37 from NMR and 323 from DFT, corresponding to Gp = 8.0 ± 0.8 and 9.0 kPa, respectively."On page 15381: "The rheometric data exhibited a similar increase in Keq from 75 at pH 6 to 10750 at pH 9 (Figure 8c)"and "At pH 9, Keq = 1126 ± 108 and 565 (from spectroscopy and rheology, respectively) and then decreased sharply at pH 10 to Keq = 112 and 120 (Figure 8e,f)."On page 15373 (in the Figure 2 caption): "Keq = 540 ± 65."'Table Presented' These corrections do not affect any of the conclusions of the article but only the exact value of select parameters.
