This study presents the properties of a new group ionic liquids (ILs) based on various cations and pelargonic acid, natural nonselective herbicide. The obtained bio-ILs were with high yield (>92%) using metathesis reaction or neutralization quaternary ammonium hydroxides characterized in terms physicochemical properties. Tests under greenhouse conditions confirmed superior herbicidal activity ILs compared to pure especially against white mustard (5–10-fold higher efficacy ILs). Further...
Novel weed control agents in the form of herbicidal ionic liquids comprising two different herbicides as a cation and an anion.
Abstract Travertines, which precipitate from high temperature water saturated with calcium carbonate, are generally considered to be dominated by physico-chemical and microbial precipitates. Here, as an additional influence on organomineral formation, metagenomic data microscopic analyses clearly demonstrate that highly diverse viral, bacterial archaeal communities occur in the biofilms associated several modern classic travertine sites Europe Asia, along virus-like particles. Metagenomic...

In this study, we demonstrated a significant adsorption of Pseudomonas putida bacteria onto aggregates nanofibers (NFSiC) and nanorods (NRSiC) silicon carbide (SiC) in aqueous suspensions. Langmuir Freundlich isotherms were used to quantify affinities. It was found that the strongly depended on structure pH solution, which affected isoelectric point both bacterial cells. The strongest affinity noted case NRSiC aggregates. Affinity inversely proportional pH. Similarly, surface increased with...
Limited mobility and restrictions in social life caused by the COVID-19 pandemic changed people's recreational behavior made them seek more contact with nature. As a result, provision of new spaces vicinity cities gained importance. In conditions distancing, rural suburban areas can be an attractive alternative to individual short-term tourism, satisfying need for recreation mental physical health restoration urban residents. study methodology assessing tourist potential area (METPRET)...
Abstract New inorganic and organic geochemical data from thucholite in the Upper Permian (Wuchiapingian) Kupferschiefer (T1) shale collected at Polkowice-Sieroszowice Cu-Ag mine Poland are presented. Thucholite, which forms spherical or granular clusters, appears scattered T1 dolomitic oxic-anoxic boundary occurring within same member. The composition of concretions differs by a higher content U- REE-enriched mineral phases compared to shale, suggesting different mineralising history....

Magnetic nanoparticles can be modified with bacteriophages and quaternary ammonium salt (QAS), reveal different antibacterial properties.
We describe the synthesis of nanocomposites, based on nanofibers silicon carbide, silver nanoparticles, and cellulose. Silver nanoparticle was achieved with chemical reduction using hydrazine by adding two different surfactants to obtain a nanocomposite nanoparticles diameters. Determination antibacterial activity respiration tests. Enzymatic analysis indicates oxidative stress, viability testing conducted an epifluorescence microscope. Strong bactericidal nanocomposites found against...
Crude oil and formation waters surrounding deposits constitute two environments that harbor various groups of microorganisms, such as sulphate-reducing bacteria, iron-reducing fermenting bacteria methanogenic archaea. Microorganisms occurring in crude waters, which are usually mineral or brines, can modify the chemical composition both aqueous solution, affect dissolution/precipitation reactions phases, consequently may influence hydraulic properties reservoir rocks conditions for...
Abstract This study presents a new group of herbicidal ionic liquids (HILs) based on cation occurs commonly in nature−acetylcholine. The HILs were obtained with high yield through ion exchange between acetylcholine chloride and potassium or sodium salts selected acids activity. results the activity measurement against common oilseed rape ( Brassica napus L .) exceeded those commercial products. Spray solutions synthesized revealed surface wetting properties which further manifested as higher...
The paper presents the data on an Eemian–Late Glacial sedimentary sequence from Zwierzyniec site, central Poland. A number of boreholes document one or two organic layers that occur beneath horizons clayey and silty deposits ice-dammed lakes. This study demonstrates to which extent site can contribute a better understanding palaeoenvironmental changes during Eemian–Vistulian time-frame in To it, multi-proxy approach was applied, involving: palynological plant macrofossil analysis, rounding...
