Abstract

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and carbon dioxide (CO2) adsorption on a series of the aliphatic amino acid ionic liquids (AAILs) composed of N7,N9- dimethyladeninium cation with amino acid anions (AA = Gly, Ala, Val, Leu, and Ile) as the functionalized ILs with dual groups of amine have been investigated. On the basis of the obtained data, the possible sites of H2S adsorption are twice those of CO2 on the ionic liquids, and also the average adsorption energy of H2S (ΔE = -51.5 kJ mol-1) in the most stable region of adsorption is twice greater than that of CO2 (ΔE = -25.5 kJ mol-1). An increase in the length of the side chain of the amino acids increases the interaction energy of the H2S and CO2 capture (on the amine group of the [AA]- anions). Quantum theory of atoms in molecules analysis confirmed the noncovalent nature of the N···C bond formed between CO2 and N atom in both of the amine groups and S-H···O and S-H···N bond critical points of H2S on [dMA][AA]. Natural bond orbital analysis indicates that charge transfer in H2S adsorption is more important than CO2 capture. Finally, a correlation between the adsorption energy and the sum of stability energies (∑E(2)) in the most stable region has been obtained and discussed.

COVID-19

Coronaviruses encompass a large family of viruses that cause the common cold as well as more serious diseases, such as the ongoing outbreak of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19; formally known as 2019-nCoV). Coronaviruses can spread from animals to humans; symptoms include fever, cough, shortness of breath, and breathing difficulties; in more severe cases, infection can lead to death. This feed covers recent research on COVID-19.

Blastomycosis

Blastomycosis fungal infections spread through inhaling Blastomyces dermatitidis spores. Discover the latest research on blastomycosis fungal infections here.

Nuclear Pore Complex in ALS/FTD

Alterations in nucleocytoplasmic transport, controlled by the nuclear pore complex, may be involved in the pathomechanism underlying multiple neurodegenerative diseases including Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Frontotemporal Dementia. Here is the latest research on the nuclear pore complex in ALS and FTD.

Applications of Molecular Barcoding

The concept of molecular barcoding is that each original DNA or RNA molecule is attached to a unique sequence barcode. Sequence reads having different barcodes represent different original molecules, while sequence reads having the same barcode are results of PCR duplication from one original molecule. Discover the latest research on molecular barcoding here.

Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

Chronic fatigue syndrome is a disease characterized by unexplained disabling fatigue; the pathology of which is incompletely understood. Discover the latest research on chronic fatigue syndrome here.

Evolution of Pluripotency

Pluripotency refers to the ability of a cell to develop into three primary germ cell layers of the embryo. This feed focuses on the mechanisms that underlie the evolution of pluripotency. Here is the latest research.

Position Effect Variegation

Position Effect Variagation occurs when a gene is inactivated due to its positioning near heterochromatic regions within a chromosome. Discover the latest research on Position Effect Variagation here.

STING Receptor Agonists

Stimulator of IFN genes (STING) are a group of transmembrane proteins that are involved in the induction of type I interferon that is important in the innate immune response. The stimulation of STING has been an active area of research in the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases. Here is the latest research on STING receptor agonists.

Microbicide

Microbicides are products that can be applied to vaginal or rectal mucosal surfaces with the goal of preventing, or at least significantly reducing, the transmission of sexually transmitted infections. Here is the latest research on microbicides.
