In this study, catechin-functionalized Fe3O4-Ag nanocomposites were synthesized by a hydrothermal method. The motivation for this study was to develop a novel antibacterial agent with enhanced stability and biocompatibility. The objective was to create a nanocomposite combining the antimicrobial properties of silver with the antioxidant and bioactive characteristics of catechin. We hypothesized that the synergistic effect of catechin and Fe3O4-Ag would yield a highly effective antibacterial material against common pathogens. The obtained nanocomposites were characterized by TEM, SEM, AFM, XPS, XRD, FTIR and physical property measurement system (PPMS). TEM images indicated that catechin-functionalized Fe3O4-Ag nanocomposites have a spherical morphology with an average size of 25.7 nm. The SEM and AFM imaging revealed that the nanocomposites appear as a number of large particles with average diameter of 581 nm. XPS and XRD and FTIR measurement confirmed the presence of catechin components, Fe3O4 and Ag in the nanocomposites. Taken together, we conclude that the catechin-Fe3O4-Ag nanocomposites in this study have a jujube cake structure in which the Fe3O4-Ag alloy nanoparticles serve as the jujube and the condensed catechin form into the cake substrate. The antimicrobial test indicated the catechin-functionalized Fe3O4-Ag nanocomposites have obvious inhibitory effects on E.coli, S.aureus, and C.albicans.

Fast and accurate detection of S. aureus and effectively kill S. aureus in the bloodstream in low doses acted as key roles in medicine and microbiology studies. In this work, sufonated-hyaluronic acid (S-HA) terminated magnetic mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MMSNs) loaded with vancomycin was successfully prepared, and S. aureus antibody was further modified on the surface of MMSNs ( [email protected] @MMSNs) by amidation reaction. The result showed that [email protected] @MMSNs were 240 nm-sized spheres with worm-like mesoporous channels. With the aid of magnetic interaction, [email protected] @MMSNs were modified on the surface of magnetic glassy carbon electrode (MGCE). This prepared immunosensor exhibited an excellent detection limit and linear range, and possessed good selectivity , stability and reproducibility. Besides, since the S-HA terminated MMSNs have anticoagulant property, the [email protected] @MMSNs/MGCE showed antiadhesion property, which ensure that it can be directly applied to detect the amount of S. aureus in whole blood. What's more, with an increasing amount of S. aureus arriving at MGCE, the capping [email protected] @MMSNs were degraded by Hyal which was secreted by S. aureus , and the packaged vancomycin was subsequently released. Ultimately, S. aureus can be effectively killed. Therefore, this integrated platform would be a promising multifunctional platform for achieving accurate diagnosis and efficient treatment of S. aureus bloodstream infection.

Although polyurethane pressure-sensitive adhesives (PSAs) have been widely used, there are still some deficiencies in adhesion and heat resistance . To make up for these shortcomings, rosin is introduced into polyurethane/polysiloxane copolymer to improve its heat resistance and adhesion, while its hydrophobicity is also improved. The vinyl-terminated polyurethane/polysiloxane copolymer is synthesized by a one-pot polymerization method, and finally PSA with different content of rosin is obtained by UV radiation . The effects of rosin on heat resistance, hydrophobicity, viscoelasticity , adhesion and antibacterial of PSA have been studied. The results show that the heat resistance index, the contact angle and the peel strength of PSA are increased by 4%, 31 % and 88 % respectively when rosin content is 6 wt%. In addition, the storage modulus and loss modulus of PSAs enhance with the increase of frequency, and the storage modulus of PSAs is always higher than the loss modulus. All PSAs have good antibacterial properties, with an antibacterial rate above 99.2 %. This will help expand the application of polyurethane/polysiloxane PSA such as food packaging materials.

Heavy metals and foodborne pathogens have become key pollutants that harm aquatic products, seriously endangering food safety and human health. Therefore, in this study, a ratiometric electrochemical aptamer sensor with a novel signal amplification strategy was constructed using ZrO 2 as the substrate and Ni/Co-MOFs@AuNPs cubic nanomaterials to increase the specific surface area to simultaneously detect Cd 2+ and S.aureus. The shared hairpin complementary chains modified with ferropene (Fc) could simultaneously bind to the Cd 2+ and S.aureus aptamers modified with methylene blue (MB) and anthrquinone-2-carboxylic acid (AQ). The ratios of MB and AQ to Fc were used to realize the qualitative and quantitative detection of Cd 2+ and S.aureus. Under the optimal conditions, the electrochemical aptamer sensor for Cd 2+ and S.aureus was in the range of 1.00 × 10 −2 -1.00 × 10 4 ng/L and 1.00 × 10 1 -1.00 × 10 7 CFU/mL, and the lowest detection limit was 1.91 × 10 −4 ng/L and 1.37 CFU/mL, respectively. The aptasensor constructed in this paper can realize the simultaneous detection of Cd 2+ and S.aureus in scallop and fish, providing a new detection method for the simultaneous detection of a variety of aquatic products pollutants.
