An LC-MS/MS method was developed and validated for simultaneously quantifying 25-hydroxyvitamin D2, D3, and 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3 in human serum. Protein in 200 μL serum was precipitated with acetonitrile. After centrifugation, the metabolites were derivatized using (diacetoxyiodo)benzene (PIA) and 4-(4-dimethylaminophenyl)-1,2,4-triazolidine-3,5-dione (DMAT) and then quantified by the LC-MS/MS system. The limits of detection (LODs) for the three substances were 10, 10, and 5 pg/mL, and the limits of quantification (LOQs) were 20, 20, and 10 pg/mL. The standard curves for these compounds showed linear regression coefficients (R2)>0.998 over specific concentration ranges. Recoveries were 94.36 %–102.34 % for 25(OH)D2, 92.43 %–103.41 % for 25(OH)D3, and 88.98 %–94.36 % for 1α,25(OH)2D3. The mean serum levels in 109 subjects (consisting of 61 healthy adult males and 59 healthy adult females) were 2.0 ± 1.5 ng/ml (25(OH)D2), 16.4 ± 6.1 ng/ml (25(OH)D3) and 36.6 ± 15.1 pg/ml (1α, 25(OH)2D3).Derivatization of vitamin D metabolites using PIA and DMAT is useful for rapidly determining the serum 25(OH) D2, 25(OH) D3 and 1α,25(OH)2D3 concentrations simultaneously in human serum.

Improving the hydration resistance of CaO aggregates is the key to successful application of lime-based refractories in metallurgical industry. Additive Zr(OH) 4 and Al(OH) 3 were introduced in the preparation of CaO granules using granulation equipment and calcination method in this study. The results showed that the hydration resistance of CaO granules was improved significantly, especially for granules with 0.6 wt.% Zr(OH) 4 and 0.9 wt.% Al(OH) 3 , respectively. The shell of CaO granules was relatively dense after calcination and the volume of open pores of CaO granules decreased from 3.56 × 10 −2 to 1.80 × 10 −2 cm 3 /g when additive was introduced. Zr(OH) 4 and Al(OH) 3 have the opposite effect on the closed porosity of CaO granules, the closed porosity of CaO granules was decreased with Zr(OH) 4 addition, but increased with Al(OH) 3 addition.

A simple one-step method was successfully developed to prepare stable nanosized Ni(OH) 2 @Cr(OH) 3 hybrid particles by just adding NaOH to a mix solution containing Ni(NO 3 ) 2 and Cr(NO 3 ) 3 at room temperature. In contrast, under the exact same conditions, flocculent Ni(OH) 2 or Cr(OH) 3 precipitate was obtained after the addition of equivalent NaOH in a solution containing same amount of Ni(NO 3 ) 2 or Cr(NO 3 ) 3 as in the mix solution. The interaction between Ni(II) and Cr(III) ions was believed to make major contribution to the formation of stable Ni(OH) 2 @Cr(OH) 3 nanohybrid without aggregation to large-size particles. The prepared Ni(OH) 2 @Cr(OH) 3 hybrid nanoparticles were well characterized by the scanning electron microscopy (SEM), the transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and electrochemical measurements with results showing uniform size, smooth surface, good monodispersibility, fast electron transfer rate as well as promising electrocatalytic properties toward glucose (Glu) and cysteine (Cys) oxidation. The presence of a small amount of Cr(OH) 3 in the composite not only improved the stability and monodispersibility of the Ni(OH) 2 @Cr(OH) 3 hybrid particles, decreased their size to nanoscale, but also exerted positive effect to the electrochemical properties of the obtained Ni(OH) 2 based nanomaterials like the electron transfer rate and the electrocatalytic activity. Satisfactory electrocatalytic performances of the Ni(OH) 2 @Cr(OH) 3 nanohybrid toward Glu and Cys oxidations were achieved, respectively, in certain concentration ranges with acceptable detection limits and correlation coefficients, suggesting the potential facilitation of electrocatalysis toward other small molecules by the newly prepared Ni(OH) 2 @Cr(OH) 3 nanohybrid.

Using the atomic precisely structurally characterized clusters as electrocatalysts can provide some possible structure information about the active intermediate during the electrocatalytic N 2 reduction reaction (NRR) process. A Cu4 cluster, named [(bpy) 4 Cu 4 (C 10 H 8 SO 3 ) 4 (OH) 4 ]•4H 2 O ( 1 ), has been synthesized and fully characterized by IR, SXRD, XPS, EPR, et al. Single crystal structural analysis reveals that the core structure of the cluster has a step-scheme conformation with two μ 2 -OH and two μ 3 -OH groups. Electro-catalysis studies of this cluster show that it can achieve a highest NH 3 yield of 2.18 μg h −1 mg −1 and a FE of 0.97 % at −0.6 V. The excellent NRR performance may be attributable to the additional μ 3 -OH groups, based on the contrastively study of the other electrocatalysts of the Cu powder and the Cu 2 complex, named [(μ 2 -OH)(μ 2 -Cl)(bpy) 2 Cu 2 Cl 2 ] ( 2 ), with one μ 2 -OH group in its structure. This work provides some structure information about the possible active sites during the NRR process and inspires us to develop new cluster as efficient electrocatalysts for advancing sustainable NH 3 production.

Two-dimensional (2D) layered nanocomposite provides a surface-to-surface heterojunction, which is an effective way to improve the photocatalytic performance because larger contact areas can promote the separation rate of interfacial charge carriers. In this study, Co(OH)2/g-C3N4/Ni(OH)2 2D layered photocatalysts have been successfully synthesized through a simple precipitation–hydrothermal method. The composite achieves a high H2-production rate of 899 μmol·h–1·g–1, which exceeds the rate of samples only coupled with Co(OH)2 and Ni(OH)2 by 4.0 and 1.9 times, respectively. In addition, the activity is even higher than that of the optimized Pt-g-C3N4 sample (1 wt. % Pt–C). The characterization results reveal the close contact of g-C3N4 and Ni/Co hydroxides, and such a face-to-face contact can greatly improve the interfacial charge-transfer rate, resulting in a high photocatalytic performance. This work demonstrates a simple way to enhance the photocatalytic H2 production of g-C3N4 under the cooperative effect of Co(OH)2 and Ni(OH)2 and provides novel insights into constructing other 2D ternary heterostructure nanocomposites.

The γ-cyclodextrin (γ-CD) metal–organic frameworks (CD-MOF-1) consist of γ-CD and potassium (K+) ions through coordinating an eight-coordinated K+ ion with two C5-linked oxygen and C6-linked hydroxyl (C5–O/C6–OH) groups in the primary faces of adjacent γ-CD units and two C2- and C3-linked hydroxyl (C2–OH/C3–OH) groups in the secondary faces. Herein, we found polysaccharide gels with only C2–OH/C3–OH or C5–O/C6–OH groups in pyranoid rings can form four-coordinated K+ ions and then coordinate γ-CD in a KOH solution for CD-MOF-1 growth. Exposure of C2–OH/C3–OH or C5–O/C6–OH groups in polysaccharide gels is important to form active four-coordinated K+ ions. Mechanism supporting this work is that four-coordinated K+ ion sites are first formed after coordinating C2–OH/C3–OH groups in pectin and then coordinating C5–O/C6–OH groups in the primary faces of γ-CD units. Alternatively, four-coordinated K+ ions with C5–O/C6–OH groups in chitosan can coordinate the C2–OH/C3–OH groups in the secondary faces of γ-CD units. Mechanism of CD-MOF-1 growing on pectin and chitosan gels through the proposed four-coordinated K+ ions is also universally applicable to other polysaccharide gels with similar C2–OH/C3–OH or C5–O/C6–OH groups such as alginate gel. Based on this mechanism, we developed pectin and chitosan gel-based CD-MOF-1 composites and exemplified applications of them in antibacterial and organic dye removal. To help future research and applications of this mechanism, we share our theoretical assumption for further investigations that any matrices with an ortho-hydroxyl carbon chain or ortho-hydroxyl ether structures may form four-coordinated K+ ions for CD-MOF-1 growth. The proposed mechanism will broaden the development of novel CD-MOF-1 composites in various fields.

Ni(OH) 2 /CNTs/Ni(OH) 2 lamellar-crossing-nanostructure with a single lamellar spacing of ∼5 nm was effectively constructed through two-phase-interface reaction process followed by the CNTs crossed among the lamellar-nanostructured Ni(OH) 2 . The resultant nanocomposite can offer large active surface areas and short diffusion paths for electrons and ions, and is investigated as a potential pseudocapacitor electrode material for electrochemical energy storage applications. Electrochemical data demonstrate that the as-prepared nanocomposite exhibits a high specific capacitance of ∼1600 F g −1 at the scan rate of 1 mV s −1 in 6 M KOH solution at normal pressure and temperature, which is great higher than Ni(OH) 2 (∼1200 F g −1 ). Furthermore, Ni(OH) 2 /CNTs/Ni(OH) 2 nanocomposite shows a higher energy density (∼125 Wh kg −1 , 2 A g −1 ) and has a slightly decrease of 5% in specific capacitance after 1000 continuous charge/discharge cycles.

Copper salt metal compounds are widely used in the field of supercapacitor electrode material due to their rich ionic groups. In this paper, NiCo(OH) 4 /Cu 2 (OH) 3 NO 3 electrode material is prepared by the solvothermal method by doping NiCo-based hydroxide with copper salt metal compounds (Cu 2 (OH) 3 NO 3 ). NiCo(OH) 4 /Cu 2 (OH) 3 NO 3 electrode material with different morphologies and sizes is prepared by adjusting the concentration of metal salts. When the metal salt concentration is 2 M, the prepared circular sheet NiCo(OH) 4 /Cu 2 (OH) 3 NO 3 electrode material with a diameter of 3 μm and a thickness of 150 nm exhibits excellent specific capacitance (1335 C g −1 at 1 A g −1 ) and capacitance retention (after 5000 cycles, the capacitance retention rate is 71.7 %). Furthermore, the NiCo(OH) 4 /Cu 2 (OH) 3 NO 3 //AC asymmetric supercapacitor is prepared, which exhibited an energy density is 83.78 Wh kg −1 at a power density of 800 W kg −1 . The capacitance retention rate of the asymmetric supercapacitor is 65.2 % (after 5000 cycles at 10 A g −1 ). We used copper salt metal compounds (Cu 2 (OH) 3 NO 3 ) to improve the electrochemical performance of NiCo-based hydroxide electrode material. This idea has certain reference significance for improving the performance of NiCo-based hydroxide electrode material.

In this paper, an amorphous composite electrocatalyst of Co(OH) 2 -Ni(OH) x S y was prepared by a simple and rapid electrochemical deposition method on nickel foam (NF). The electrochemical performance for oxygen evolution reaction (OER) was tested in 1 M KOH solution. The overpotential of Co(OH) 2 -Ni(OH) x S y (Co:Ni = 9:1) electrode was 423 mV at 50 mA cm −2 . The potential of the Co(OH) 2 -Ni(OH) x S y (Co:Ni = 9:1) sample remained essentially unchanged from the initial potential of 1.651 V after 12 h of stability test. In this catalyst, the strong synergistic effect between cobalt and nickel ions, the greatly increased amorphous defect sites and oxygen vacancies, and the abundant electrochemical specific surface area together lead to the increased electrocatalytic activity and high electrocatalyst stability. This amorphous CoNi-based composite electrocatalyst prepared by simple electrodeposition has certain significance for the preparation of hydrogen energy.

Co(OH)2 nanosheets/Cu(OH)2 nanorods composite electrodes for non-enzymatic glucose detection were fabricated by electrodepositing Co(OH)2 nanosheets on Cu(OH)2 nanorods substrate grown directly on the copper sheet via a simple one-step reaction. The Co(OH)2 nanosheets/Cu(OH)2 nanorods composite electrode was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive x-ray spectroscopy, x-ray diffraction and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The glucose sensing performance of the composite electrode was investigated by cyclic voltammetry and chronoamperometry. The composite electrode shows high sensitivity of 2366 µA mM−1 cm−2 up to 2 mM with a lower detection limit of 0.17 mM (S/N = 3). The composite electrode is highly selective to glucose in the presence of various substances that always co-exist with glucose in real blood samples. The response of the composite towards human blood serum was in good agreement with that of commercially available glucose sensors, suggesting that a promising electrode material for highly sensitive and selective non enzymatic detection of glucose can be envisioned.

β-Ni(OH) 2 with good crystallinity is grown on the surface of the flower-like α-Ni(OH) 2 to form a 3D α@β-Ni(OH) 2 material by a two-step hydrothermal method . The synthesized β-Ni(OH) 2 is nanometer size and strong alkali stability, while the α-Ni(OH) 2 has a large specific surface, high specific capacity and good electrical conductivity , so there are multiple synergistic effects between the β-Ni(OH) 2 coating and the α-Ni(OH) 2 core. Coupled with a 3D flower-like structure, the obtained α@β-Ni(OH) 2 electrode shows a high capacity of 431 mAh g −1 at a current density of 1 A g −1 . Furthermore, we use the α@β-Ni(OH) 2 electrode and the activated carbon (AC) electrode to assemble an asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) device. This ASC shows the excellent energy density of 53 Wh kg −1 at a power density of 875 W kg −1 and capacity retention rate of 78% after 5000 cycles. Finally, metal hydride (MH) is used to replace the AC negative electrode, and a cell with a high energy density of 100.17 Wh kg −1 at a power density of 424.75 W kg −1 is obtained. The results show that α@β-Ni(OH) 2 electrode has better electrochemical performance than commercial electrodes and has application prospects in energy storage.
