Nowadays, in situ analysis attracts the interests and becomes one of the main purposes in analytical
chemistry. Design of portable analysis devices facilitates reaching this goal. An ideal analysis system
contains different parts enabling extraction, detection and quantification of target analytes.
Preparation of a portable quantification approach is a bottle neck in such system creation. Common
lab analysis instruments do not have the transportation ability and using these facilities limits the
complete in situ analysis. Smartphones are the modern life phenomena and their usage becomes
more widespread, every day. Their abilities and features are also swiftly developed. There are
several strategies making the smartphone a suitable quantifier. This paper provides an overview of
the currently applications of smartphones in analytical chemistry. Different applications of
smartphones including optical detection (colorimetric, fluorescence, chemiluminescence,
bioluminescence, and photoluminescence detections, pixelation as well as label-free detection),
electrochemical detection, barcode reading, chemometric applications and smartphone imaging
with fluorescence microscopy were classified and advantages and disadvantages of each approach
were investigated. This modern common item could be a new part of analytical chemistry.

Chemistry of Biomaterials: Future Prospects
Abstrack
The development of suitable biomaterials with the ability to improve repair and
regeneration of human tissues is continuously in progress, and chemistry of biomaterials play a
critical role in their success in the clinical setting. Advances in chemistry provide new possibilities for
the scientists to investigate and manipulate individual molecules and small ensembles of molecules
with respect to create potent materials in terms of tissue reconstruction. Protein adsorption and
subsequent cell and tissue interactions with biomaterials directly depend on their surface chemistry
determining the final fate of bio-implants. Today, achieving cheaper and safer processes for
producing different types of biomaterials is now available by applying green chemistry methods.
Therefore, chemistry plays a critical role in developing, designing, and final products of metal-,
bioceramic-, polymer- and biocomposite-based structures, which are currently used in clinical
practice. In this review study, we highlight all physico-chemical and biological aspects of biometerials
dictated by chemistries, and some solutions will be offered to open new the current limitations in
the field of tissue engineering and regenerative medicine. (Kargozar, Ramakrishna, & Mozafari,

Combustion and Flame

abstract
Biomass derived chemicals may offer sustainable alternatives to petroleum derived hydrocarbons,
while also enhancing engine combustion performance with co-optimization of fuels and engines.
This paper presents a numerical study on the oxidation and combustion of a novel biofuel
compound, cyclopen- tanol. Its reaction kinetics and thermochemistry are first explored using ab
initio quantum chemistry methods. Thermochemical properties are calculated for cyclopentanol and
a set of its key oxidation in- termediates. C-H bond dissociation energies of cyclopentanol are
computed for different carbon sites. For the fuel radicals, the energy barriers of their ring-opening
reactions and the potential energy surfaces of their oxidation reactions are determined. Based on
the theoretical results, a chemical kinetic mecha- nism is proposed to describe the oxidation of
cyclopentanol at low and high temperatures. The model is compared against data obtained from
shock tube, rapid compression machine, combustion vessel, and counterflow burner experiments
over a range of initial conditions. Furthermore, reaction pathway anal- ysis is performed using the
present mechanism to give insights into the underlying oxidation chemistry of cyclopentanol. It is
found that the α-radical of cyclopentanol undergoes preferably an alcohol-specific HO 2 elimination
reaction to form stable cyclopentanone and this reaction can strongly retard reactivity. The major
reaction pathways of β- and γ-radicals are similar to those of cyclopentyl radicals that are the
sequential and formally direct reactions of fuel radicals with O 2 to form cyclopentenols and HO 2
radicals. The existence of the hydroxy moiety affects the bond dissociation energies and reaction
barriers, slightly favoring the chain-branching channel for γ-radicals at low temperatures. (Cai et al.,
