Hyperuricemia, a prevalent metabolic disorder, necessitates novel therapeutic strategies. This study reports the isolation and characterization of Pichia kudriavzevii YS711, a novel strain isolated from the traditional Chinese fermented food “Jiangshui”, exhibiting exceptional uric acid (UA) degradation capabilities. In vitro studies demonstrated that YS711 degraded 31.2% of UA within 24 hours, converting it to ammonium. This end-product is significantly safer than urea, mitigating potential adverse effects associated with urea accumulation. Whole-genome sequencing revealed a complete UA metabolic pathway in YS711, the first such pathway elucidated in the phylum Ascomycota. This pathway encompasses key enzymes, including urate oxidase, allantoinase, allantoicase, ureidoglycolate lyase, and urea amidolyase. The identification of these genes provides a valuable resource for future metabolic engineering efforts to enhance UA degradation. This research underscores the potential of P. kudriavzevii YS711 as a promising probiotic-based therapeutic agent for hyperuricemia prevention and treatment, offering a safer and potentially more effective alternative to existing approaches.

A novel tailored multilayer probe for monitoring potential pyrethroids in the Yangtze River was proposed. The room-temperature phosphorescence method was applied to realize a detection strategy that is superior to the fluorescence method. Efficient Mn-doped ZnS quantum dots with uniform size of 4.6 nm were firstly coated with a mesoporous silica to obtain a suitable intermediate transition layer, then an imprinted layer containing bifenthrin specific recognition sites was anchored. Characterizations verified the multilayer structure convincingly and the detection process relied on the electron transfer-induced fluorescence quenching mechanism. Optional detection time and standard detection curve were obtained within a concentration range from 5.0 to 50 μmol L−1. The stability was verified to be good after 12 replicates. Feasibility of the probe was proved by monitoring water samples from the Zhenjiang reach of the Yangtze River. The probe offers promise for direct bifenthrin detection in unknown environmental water with an accurate and stable phosphorescence analysis strategy.

In this paper, Zinc oxide (ZnO) hybridized with graphite-like C 3 N 4 (ZnO/g-C 3 N 4 ) nanoflowers based solid phase microextraction (SPME) coating was prepared on fiber using in situ hydrothermal growth method for gas chromatographic -mass spectrum (GC- MS) separation and analysis target analytes in complex matrixes for the first time. The proposed hybrid ZnO/g-C 3 N 4 fiber exhibited wide linearity for the pesticide residues in range of 0.003–5.0 ng mL −1 . The limits of detection (LOD) were 0.001–0.0025 ng mL −1 . The relative standard deviation (RSD) for three replicate extractions using one fiber was ranged from 2.3% to 7.6%. The fiber to fiber RSD was 5.3–11.3% (n = 3). This method was successfully used for simultaneous determination of nine pesticide residues in cucumber, pear, Green tea and Minjiang water with satisfactory recoveries of 79.1–103.5%. These results indicated that the ZnO/g-C 3 N 4 composite provided a promising alternative in sample pretreatment and analysis.

β-Cyclodextrin modified magnetic microspheres were synthesized and used as an effective adsorbent for the solid-phase extraction of three phenols from water samples. Scanning electron microscopy and Fourier transform infrared spectrometry were used to characterize the adsorbents. The major parameters affecting the extraction and desorption efficiencies, such as adsorbent dosage, extraction time, pH, ionic strength, and eluent type were systematically optimized. Under these conditions, three phenols in water samples were extracted and determined by high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with diode array detection (DAD). Limits of detection (LODs) of 0.04–0.34 ng mL−1 and limits of quantification (LOQs) from 0.13 to 1.14 ng mL−1 were achieved with good repeatability (relative standard deviation <7.5%). The developed method was applied for the determination of 2,4-dichlorophenol, 2,4-dinitrophenol and bisphenol A in spiked Yangtze River water, and the recoveries were from 81.0% to 94.9%. The results demonstrated that the combination of magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) with HPLC-DAD is suitable for the determination of trace phenolics in environmental water.

Hydrogen sulfide is typical metabolic marker and environmental pollutant which is worthwhile to determine. Herein, a low background and high sensitivity fluorescent strategy based on double modifications of metal organic framework material CAU-10-NH 2 is proposed for the determination of hydrogen sulfide. Firstly, a functional monomer 3,5-diaminobenzoic acid is employed to modify on the CAU-10-NH 2 , the product CAU-10-NH-dAba has strong fluorescent performance at 412 nm under an excitation wavelength of 320 nm. Subsequently, it is further modified by the azide group to form CAU-10-NH-dAba-N 3 . This azidation inhibits the fluorescent signal. However, in the presence of hydrogen sulfide, the azide group is specifically reduced to amidogen, and results in the recovery of the fluorescence. The CAU-10-NH-DABA-N 3 was characterized by solid state NMR , XPS, fluorescence, IR, XRD, SEM and specific surface area. After the optimization of pH value, temperature and interaction time, the detection results of hydrogen sulfide demonstrate the linear range of this strategy is from 20 to 140 nM with a detection limit of 1.51 nM, which is significantly better than that of the CAU-10-NH 2 merely modified by 3,5-dinitrobenzoic acid. Meanwhile, the satisfactory assay results of hydrogen sulfide in serum sample and Pearl river water suggest a potential application prospect of this strategy in clinical diagnosis and environment monitoring.
