Three new iodates SrTi(IO3)6·2H2O, (H3O)2Ti(IO3)6, and SrSn(IO3)6 have been synthesized via a facile hydrothermal method. The three compounds have zero-dimensional crystal structures composed of one [MO6]8− (M = Ti, Sn) octahedron connected with six [IO3]− trigonal pyramids. However, the particular coordination of Sr2+ cations results in distinct arrangements of lone pair electrons in an [IO3]− trigonal pyramid, which leads to large birefringences. More importantly, this work enriches the species crystal chemistry for [M(IO3)6]2− (M = Ti, Sn) clusters-containing iodates.

In order to find a facile and practical method to synthesize amino cellulose in bulk with high regional selectivity and high degree of substitution, the reaction conditions to brominate cellulose and to reduce azido group were carefully studied and some interesting phenomena were observed. With the optimized method, 6-amino-6-deoxy cellulose could be easily prepared with very simple separation techniques. The degree of substitution of the amino group amounted to 0.97 which was determined by 1 H NMR spectrum of 6-benzamido-6-deoxy cellulose. Moreover, the amino group was evidenced to be at the C 6 of glucose unit by 1 H- 1 H COSY NMR and 1 H- 13 C HSQC NMR spectra. In addition, three cellulose 6-acetamido-6-deoxy-2,3-bis(phenylcarbamate)s were prepared from the 6-amino-6-deoxy cellulose prepared with the techniques optimized in the present study. The developed cellulose derivatives were used as chiral selectors with which chiral stationary phases (CSPs) were prepared. The CSPs exhibited enantioseparation power to some chiral compounds.

The corrosion of carbon steel causes dramatic economic losses each year. Since conventional corrosion prevention approaches may cause pollution problems to the environment, ecofriendly and effective corrosion approaches are desired. Microbiologically influenced corrosion inhibition (MICI) has been reported as a sustainable corrosion prevention method. This work aims to evaluate the corrosion inhibition effect of two bacterial strains,Tenacibaculum mesophilumD-6 andBacillussp. Y-6 by choosing Q235 carbon steel as a model system. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), confocal laser scanning microscopy (CLSM) and a series of electrochemical techniques were applied to study the corrosion prevention effect. The electrochemical and pitting results indicated thatT. mesophilumD-6 displayed a better corrosion protection effect.T. mesophilumD-6 formed a denser and thicker biofilm on the Q235 surface thanBacillussp. Y-6. The maximum thickness of theT. mesophilumD-6 biofilms was 11.6 ± 0.7 μm, which is about twice as thick than that ofBacillussp. Y-6. The corrosion prevention mechanism was ascribed to the formation of biofilms as a barrier to block corrosive agents such as O2. This study provides a theoretical foundation for the application of biofilms as green and effective corrosion inhibitors for carbon steel.Keywords:Q235 carbon steel;Tenacibaculum mesophilumD-6;Bacillussp.

The surface of carbon fiber (CF) was modified by the electrophoretic deposition of cationic chitosan (CS), which is expected to enhance the hygrothermal and mechanical properties of carbon fiber/polyamide 6 (CF/PA 6) composites. Carbon fiber in various treatment stages was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy, and X-ray diffraction. The studies demonstrate that the chitosan-modified carbon fiber (CS-CF) increases the surface chemical activity and roughness of carbon fiber, which enhances the chemical bonding and mechanical interlocking of carbon fiber with PA 6. Compared with desized carbon fiber (D-CF), the O/C composition ratio of CS-CF increased from 20.34 % to 50.86 %, and the tensile strength and flexural strength of the CS-CF/PA 6 composites were enhanced by 50.31 % and 43.88 %, respectively. In addition, the hygrothermal properties of CS-CF/PA 6 were also improved. Fracture observation of the composite cross-sections further elucidates the mechanism of interfacial strengthening.

6-Phosphogluconate dehydrogenases (6PGDHs) are widely existing as reduced cofactor (NADH/NADPH) regeneration biocatalysts. Herein, a thermostable 6PGDH from Hydrogenobacter thermophilus (Ht6PGDH) was overexpressed in Escherichia coli and enzymologically characterized. Ht6PGDH exhibited exceptional stability and catalytic activity under high-temperature conditions, with an optimum temperature of 85 °C and the ability to maintain high activity for prolonged periods at 70 °C, which could be purified through a one-step heat treatment. Moreover, Ht6PGDH exhibited a preference for NAD + with a K m value of 0.4 mM and a k cat value of 28.6 s⁻ 1 , demonstrating a significant preference over NADP + . These properties render Ht6PGDH a potentially valuable enzyme for high-temperature bioconversion and in vitro synthetic biosystems. Additional research showed that Ht6PGDH excelled in the regeneration of NADH, achieving efficient lactate production when integrated into an in vitro synthetic biosystem containing lactate dehydrogenase (LDH). Furthermore, the cascade reaction of Ht6PGDH with glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH) was explored for NADH regeneration using starch as the substrate, further validating its potential application in complex biosynthetic systems.

A sensitive and robust fluorescent assay of 6-MP is described which relies on the facile assembly of a fluorescence nanoprobe by design of silica nanosphere encapsulated CdTe quantum dots (CdTe QDs) as scaffold, coupling with chemically tethered folic acid (FA)–protected silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) that function as responsive element. In this way a stable ternary core-shell-satellite nanostructure with dual-emission signals can be established. On binding to the target molecules, 6-MP, FA molecules initially occupied by AgNPs are liberated to give dose-dependent fluorescence emission, which can further form a self-calibration ratiometric fluorescence assay using CdTe QDs as an internal reference. The nanoprobe color vividly changes from red to blue, enabling the direct visual detection. The linear concentration range is 0.15~50 μM with the detection limit of 67 nM. By virtue of the favorable selectivity and robust assays, the nanoprobe was applied to 6-MP detection in urine samples, with recoveries from 97.3 to 106% and relative standard deviations (RSD) less than 5%.

The phytohormone 6-benzylaminopurine (6-BAP) significantly improves lipid synthesis of oleaginous microorganisms with the great potential applied in lipid production. In the current study, the lipid and DHA productions in oleaginous Aurantiochytrium sp. were found to be improved by 48.7% and 55.3%, respectively, induced by 6-BAP treatments. Then, using high-throughput RNA-seq technology, the overall de novo assembly of the cDNA sequence data generated 53871 unigenes, and 15902 of these were annotated in at least one database. The comparative transcriptomic profiles of cells with and without 6-BAP treatments revealed that a total of 717 were differently expressed genes (DE), with 472 upregulated and 245 downregulated. Further annotation and categorization indicated that some DE genes were involved in pathways crucial to lipid and DHA productions, such as fatty acid synthesis, central carbon metabolism, transcriptional factor, signal transduction, and mevalonate pathway. A regulation mode of 6-BAP, in turn, perception and transduction of 6-BAP signal, transcription factor, expression regulations of the downstream genes, and metabolic changes, respectively, was put forward for the first time in the present study. This research illuminates the transcriptomic mechanism of phytohormone stimulation of lipid and DHA production in an oleaginous microorganism and provides the potential targets modified using genetic engineering for improving lipid and DHA productivity.

Bastnaesite has always been faced significant challenges in its flotation separation from its associated gangue minerals like fluorite. Despite being a commonly employed collector for oxide mineral flotations, octyl hydroxamic acid (OHA) still exhibits insufficient selectivity. Consequently, a novel hydroxamic acid, N -[6-(hydroxyamino)-6-oxohexyl]octanamide (NHOO), is synthesized and employed as a collector in bastnaesite flotation, building upon the structure of OHA. Flotation experiments under neutral conditions demonstrate the effective ability of NHOO to achieve a difference of nearly 60% in the recoveries between bastnaesite and fluorite during their separation. Concordant outcomes from zeta potential characterizations, adsorption tests, and X-ray photoemission spectroscopy validate heightened adsorption quantities of NHOO on bastnaesite surface relative to fluorite under identical dosage conditions. Ab initio calculations unveil the capability of NHOO to establish a pentacoordinate chelate ring on bastnaesite surface, whereas on fluorite, it can only form a singular chemical bond. Consequently, NHOO shows a considerably lower energy associated with its adsorption on bastnaesite surface in comparison to its energy on fluorite surface.

The extensive use of synthetic antioxidants, notably N-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N′-phenyl- p -phenylenediamine (6-PPD), in rubber-related products, particularly in tire manufacturing, has induced concerns regarding their environmental impact and potential health hazards. Despite the identification of 6-PPD and its derivative, 6-PPD quinone (6-PPDQ), in various water samples and their lethal effects on certain aquatic species ( e.g. , coho salmon, rainbow trout and brook trout), the levels of airborne 6-PPD/6-PPDQ and their respiratory toxicity remain relatively unexplored. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the respiratory toxicity potential of 6-PPD and its derivatives, with a specific focus on detecting these compounds in airborne particulates and assessing their toxic effects on lung cells. Characterization of four airborne fine particulate (FP) samples revealed spherical morphologies with diameters ranging from 17.7 to 225.7 nm, displaying slight agglomeration and negative surface charge. methanol/acetonitrile extraction followed by liquid chromatography coupled with tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS) analysis confirmed the presence of both 6-PPD and 6-PPDQ on the surfaces of FPs, with significant variations (0.26–1.05 μg g −1 ) in loading capacity observed among the samples. Subsequent exposure of lung cells (THP-1, BEAS-2B, and A549) to 6-PPD and 6-PPDQ revealed dose-dependent declines in mitochondrial metabolic activity induced by 6-PPD, along with severe membrane damage, ATP depletion, and pro-inflammatory cytokine release. Conversely, 6-PPDQ exhibited negligible toxicity in all tested parameters. These findings underscore the potential health risks associated with airborne 6-PPD exposure and emphasize the importance of further research into the respiratory toxicity of 6-PPD derivatives.

Arbutin, salidroside, polydatin, and phlorizin are typically natural bioactive phenolic glycosides. To improve the liposolubility and bioavailability, highly liposoluble derivatives including 6′-O-lauryl arbutin, 6′-O-lauryl salidroside, 6″-O-lauryl polydatin, and 6″-O-lauryl phlorizin were efficiently synthesized by enzymatic acylation in a green solvent 2-MeTHF. Their reaction conversions reached 84.4, 99.5, 99.8, and 89.1%, respectively, when catalyzed by Lipozyme 435 at 20 mg/mL at 50 °C. As expected, the derivatives had high log P (1.66–2.37) and retained good antioxidant activity, making them potential alternatives to butylated hydroxytoluene (BHT) and tert-butyl-hydroquinone (TBHQ) in lipid systems. Then, the intestinal permeability characteristics and metabolism of phenolic glycosides and their derivatives were investigated based on Caco-2 monolayers. The permeability of polydatin and phlorizin was mainly through active transport, but that of arbutin and salidroside involved both passive diffusion and active uptake. The acylated derivatives suffered from severe CES-mediated hydrolysis but exhibited a larger transported amount than phenolic glycosides.

In this research, the inhibition mechanism of a pairs of homoisoflavonoid analogues (6-aldehydo-isoophiopogonanone A (AIO-A) and 6-aldehydo-isoophiopogonanone B (AIO-B)) on tyrosinase (Tyr) was investigated by multi-spectroscopic techniques combined with molecular docking. The results demonstrated that AIO-A suppressed the activity of Tyr in a reversible competitive-inhibition with a half inhibitory concentration (IC50) of (12.67 ± 2.52) × 10 –5 molˑL −1 , while AIO-B was a reversible mixed-inhibition with IC50 of (4.81 ± 0.74) × 10 –5 molˑL −1 . AIO-A/AIO-B bound to Tyr driven by the intermolecular interactions, including van der Waals interaction, hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interaction, thereby resulted in a secondary structure change of Tyr and its intrinsic fluorescence quenching. The molecular docking revealed that an aldehyde oxygen atom in AIO-A and methoxyphenyl in AIO-B formed coordination with two Cu ions in the active center of Tyr protein. It can be deduced that the coordination with two Cu ions may prevent the entrance of substrate and then inhibit the catalytic activity of Tyr. The research might provide new perspectives on the inhibition mechanism of AIO-A and AIO-B on Tyr and functional research for the prevention and treatment of pigmented skin diseases and anti-browning of homoisoflavonoids as a food supplement.

Two-dimensional aluminophosphate is an important precursor of phosphate-based zeolites; a new Sun Yat-sen University No. 6 (SYSU-6) with |Hada|2[Al2(HPO4)(PO4)2] has been synthesized in the hydrothermal synthesis with organic structure-directing agent (OSDA) ofN,N,3,5-tetramethyladamantan-1-amine. In this paper, SYSU-6 is characterized by single-crystal/powder X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray analysis, transmission electron microscopy, infrared and UV Raman spectroscopy, solid-state27Al,31P and13C magic angle spinning (MAS) NMR spectra, and elemental analysis. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction structure indicates that SYSU-6 crystallized in the space groupP21/n, with a = 8.4119(3), b = 36.9876(12), c = 12.5674(3), α = 90°, β = 108.6770(10)°, γ = 90°, V = 3704.3(2) Å3, Z = 4, R = 5.12%, for 8515 observed data (I > 2σ(I)). The structure has a new 4,12-ring layer framework topology linked by alternating AlO4and PO4tetrahedra. The organic molecules reside between the layers and are hydrogen-bonded to the inorganic framework. The new type of layer provides a greater opportunity to construct zeolite with novel topology.Keywords:aluminophosphate;2-D zeolite;SYSU-6
