Due to its abundant resources and advantages in transportation and storage, methane fueled solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) are highly needed. In this work, an exceptional internal reforming catalyst comprising in-situ exsolved NiRu bimetallic nanoparticles and oxygen-deficient layered double perovskite LaBaMn 1.6 Ni 0.3 Ru 0.1 O 5+δ (r-LBMNR) was prepared. Compared to the cell with LaBaMn 1.6 Ni 0.4 O 5+δ (r-LBMN) catalyst, the cell with a Ru-doping r-LBMNR catalyst layer, exhibits superior peak power output of 336 mW cm −2 and better durability with a less decay rate of 0.014% per hour in CH 4 fuel. The enhanced electrochemical performance can be attributed to the high oxygen ion and electron conductivities of the catalyst and the coupling of Ni and Ru sites with the oxygen-deficient r-LBMNR matrix This coupling activates CH 4 and H 2 O, promotes the oxidation of C atoms in CH 4 molecules, and enables reversible hydrogen spillover, ultimately leading to the production syngas of CO(g) and H 2 (g).

Metal nanoparticles catalysts are widely used in hydrogenation of carboxylic acids and their derivatives, which are significant reactions to produce high-value compounds such as alcohols and lactones. These reactions were usually carried out in liquid phase at harsh conditions with high temperature and pressure, however, catalysts deactivation frequently occurred since small metal NPs were inclined to migrate and aggregate as well as dissolve and leach in such acid systems. Thus, it’s a great challenge to prepare catalysts with highly dispersed small metal NPs with good stability and durability. Herein we propose a novel one-pot co-synthesis method to prepare highly dispersed and stabilized nanometal catalysts that small Ru NPs embedded in carbon species coated on silica nanospheres. Ru precursors were doped directly in the synthesis of RF coated silica spheres along with the polymerization of resorcinol–formaldehyde, and following the process of carbothermal reduction. Aqueous hydrogenation of itaconic acid was used as a probe reaction, which could produce high-value products such as methylsuccinic acid and methyl butyrolactone. The as-prepared catalysts had uniform dispersion of small Ru NPs with core-shell structure of resin coated silica nanospheres, exhibited good hydrogenation activity and stability with no obvious loss of yield for methyl butyrolactone and less sintering in recycling tests.

Electrochemiluminescence (ECL) by virtue of its controllability and versatility has emerged as a significant tool in bioassay, but how to integrate it with other (nano)materials and further break the limit of sensitivity for ultrasensitive detection still possess tremendous potential. Herein, a close-packed Ru@SiO2 NP nanomembrane that serves as an enhanced substrate and luminophore enricher simultaneously was constructed by the liquid–liquid interface self-assembly method and applied for ECL-enhanced bioassay. The developed ECL electrode obtained ∼600-fold enhancement on ECL intensity compared with the bare ITO electrode and ∼21-fold enhancement compared with the SiO2 NP nanomembrane electrode due to the dramatic light scattering of the 2D SiO2 NPs and the enrichment of Ru(bpy)32+ molecules on the surface of the Ru@SiO2 NP nanomembrane electrode. Based on the fascinating Ru@SiO2 NP nanomembrane platform, we further constructed a label-free immunosensor for the detection of prostate-specific antigen (PSA). The as-fabricated Ru@SiO2-nanomembrane ECL immunosensor exhibited good stability and performed ultrasensitive detection with an utmost low detection limit of 0.169 fg·mL–1 (signal/noise = 3). Our work puts forward an effective solution benefiting for further improving ECL performance for ultrasensitive bioassays.

Developing highly specific, rapid, and cost-effective electrochemiluminescence (ECL) methods capable of detecting multiple analytes remains a compelling research goal but it is still a substantial challenge due to narrow choice of ECL systems. In this study, efficient ECL detections were achieved by using anodic Ru(bpy) 3 2+ -acridine orange (AO) ECL system. In present system, dimethylamino substituent on acridine ring acts as active sites for strong ECL generation, while heterocyclic nitrogen atom (–N–) contributes to specific complex formation with metal ion. Accordingly, this anodic ECL method was exploited for highly sensitive detection of both mercury (II) (Hg 2+ ) and dopamine (DA), with detection limits as low as 0.36 nM (linear range 0.01–50 μM) and 1.0 nM (linear range 0.01–10 μM), respectively. The mechanism of Hg 2+ detection was supported by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. Notably, the ECL method exhibit superior selectivity over numerous competing interfering agents. Moreover, the method achieved the detection of both targets in practical media with excellent recoveries (96.0–103.8%). Importantly, the method demonstrates potential advantages in terms of selectivity, sensitivity, rapidity, simplicity, and low cost. This work realizes a successful attempt to further expand the analytical applications of ECL systems and may initiate new thoughts in utilizing acridines in diverse ECL-based sensing and imaging applications.

An enhanced ratiometric fluorescence sensor Ru@HFeO@NH 2 -MIL-101 (Fe) for the determination of arsenate was constructed by using HFeO-modified NH 2 -MIL-101 (Fe) as the response signal and Ru(bpy) 3 2+ as the reference signal, which can be used for sensitive and visual detection of As(V). Because the HFeO nanoparticles were cleverly in-situ generated within the NH 2 -MIL-101(Fe) framework, the adsorption capacity of As(V) was enhanced 32% and further increased fluorescence ratio. The sensor exhibited a good linear relationship within As(V) concentration range 0.05-1 and 3–30 µM, with a detection limit (LOD) of 0.039 µM. The sensor also exhibited good selectivity and practical application performance, and can be utilized by a smartphone for visual detection of As(V). This provides an effective method for the sensitive detection of As(V) in complex environmental conditions. Graphical

Early cancer diagnosis is crucial due to a significant increase in cancer incidence over the last three decades. A highly sensitive electrochemiluminescence technique was developed for carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) detection. This method uses Ru(bpy)32+ as the luminescent substance, and the silica and polyacrylamide gel composite as the carrier. Ru(bpy)32+ is loaded into it to prevent its leakage. At the same time, biological molecules such as antibodies or antigens are immobilized, thereby improving the stability and reaction activity of the system. Additionally, Au-Fc-MOF was synthesized to act as a quencher and secondary antibody label, absorbing the emitted energy from the ECL emitter to improve detection accuracy across various CEA concentrations. Potassium persulfate was employed as a co-reactant to generate SO4•- radicals, intensifying the luminescence output of the system. The findings revealed that the developed immunosensor exhibited strong linearity within the concentration range of 10-5 ng/mL to 10 ng/mL, with a remarkably low detection limit of 5.03 fg/mL. This electrochemical luminescence immunosensor, characterized by its simple preparation, cost-effectiveness, and superior performance, demonstrates significant potential in advancing early CEA detection methodologies.

To sensitively monitor trace-level of toxic patulin (PAT), an ultrasensitive PAT ratiometric aptasensor based on the dual-potential electrochemiluminescence (ECL) of Ru(bpy) 3 2+ was first proposed. Noteworthily, Ru(bpy) 3 2+ -doped trimetallic nanocube ( [email protected] ) innovatively integrated the luminophore and cathode coreaction accelerator (CCA), which could generate strong cathodic ECL in the existence of low concentration of K 2 S 2 O 8 . Simultaneously, anthocyanin-derived carbon quantum dots (anth-CQDs) prepared from purple potato skins was first served as a green anodic coreactant. And SiO 2 -coated anth-CQDs ( [email protected] 2 ) exhibited excellent performance for enhancing anodic ECL of [email protected] Based on this, a novel ternary ECL system was established. In the presence of PAT, the ECL intensity ratio of anode to cathode ( I ECL-A / I ECL-C ) was significantly increased, and a low detection limit of 0.05 pg mL −1 was obtained. Moreover, when proposed method and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) were simultaneously applied to series of fruit products, the obtained results were completely consistent, reflecting its practicability.

Background The residues of kanamycin can accumulate in the human body for a long time and pose serious health risks, including hearing loss , kidney poisoning, and drug allergic reactions. Therefore, it is crucial to develop a rapid, highly sensitive, and low-cost method for detecting kanamycin residues in foods. However, the current methods have limitations such as low sensitivity, expensive instruments, and multiple steps, which make them impractical for use in resource-limited environments and emergencies. In this study, the creation of a multiple-signal amplification photoelectrochemical biosensor to address these aforementioned issues is discussed. Results Herein, we proposed a multiple signal amplification photoelectrochemical (PEC) biosensor based on carboxylated g-C 3 N 4 and avidin functionalized Ru@SiO 2 for the ultrasensitive detection of kanamycin. The carboxylated g-C 3 N 4 was a highly efficient photoactive substance for amplifying photoelectric signals and a substrate for aptamer immobilization. The DOS and PDOS of g-C 3 N 4 were studied by simulation, and the sensing mechanism of the probe at the molecular level was revealed. Meanwhile, using Ru@SiO 2 as a signal amplifying unit, through the cooperative work between Ru@SiO 2 and g-C 3 N 4 , the photoelectric signal could be double amplified to produce an excellent photocurrent response. Under optimized conditions, the photocurrent response of the PEC biosensor to kanamycin was obtained at concentrations from 0.1 nM to 1000 nM with a lower detection limit of 4.1052 × 10 −11 mol L −1 . This protocol demonstrates high sensitivity, brilliant specific recognition ability, excellent reproducibility, and acceptable stability. Significance The first combination of g-C 3 N 4 and avidin-Ru@SiO 2 as photocurrent materials greatly enhanced the sensitivity of the PEC biosensors. Moreover, the specificity and sensitivity of the PEC biosensor were further improved through the specific interaction between kanamycin and aptamer. The photoelectric conversion mechanism based on g-C 3 N 4 and two pathways for enhancing the photocurrent by Ru(byp) 3 2+ were proposed. Through simulations of the DOS and PDOS of g-C 3 N 4 , the sensing mechanism of the probe at the molecular level was revealed. Under the optimum conditions, the PEC biosensor exhibited a wide linear concentration range and a low detection limit.

Herein, a label-free electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor for sensitive determination of carcinoembryonic antigen (CEA) was fabricated based on CdS quantum dots loaded onto metal organic framework (CdS QDs@MOF) and triethanolamine modified on gold nanoparticles (TEOA@AuNPs) as bi-coreactants of Ru(bpy) 3 2+ ECL system. The TEOA@AuNPs served as not only coreactant of Ru(bpy) 3 2+ but also nanocarrier for CEA aptamer which was bonded to the TEOA@AuNPs through Au–S bond. After incubated in CEA solution, the ECL signals decreased due to the poor conductivity of CEA and there was a linear correlation between the ECL intensity and log(C CEA ). Based on this result, a label-free ECL biosensor has been developed successfully and used to detect CEA with a detection limit of 8.5 × 10 −5 ng/mL. The proposed ECL aptasensor had good analytical performance in the detection of CEA in human serum samples.

A molecular photosensitizer [Ru(dcbpy)(bpy)2]2+ (dcbpy = 2,2′-bipyridyl-5,5′-dicarboxylic acid) and a proton reduction catalyst Pt(dcbpy)Cl2 were successfully incorporated into a highly robust metal–organic framework (MOF) of Zr(IV)6O4(OH)4(bpdc)6 (bpdc = 4,4′-biphenyldicarboxylic acid) by making use of a mix-and-match approach. The molecular integrity of the Ru and Pt complexes within the MOFs was demonstrated by a variety of techniques, including XRD, BET, TGA, SEM, TEM, HAADF-STEM, EDX, DRUS and XPS. This di-component Ru–Pt@UIO-67 MOF assembly allows a facile arrangement of the photosensitizer and the reduction catalyst with close spatial proximity, promotes the electron transfer between them, and thus leads to a significantly improved hydrogen evolution activity in aqueous solution at pH 5.0 upon visible light irradiation. This Ru–Pt@UIO-67 system represents the first example of MOFs functionalized with two different transition metal complexes, which can be used as a photosensitizer and catalyst, respectively, for hydrogen generation from water.

A new ruthenium methylimidazole complex [Ru(MeIm) 4 ( p -cpip)] 2 + ( Ru1 , p -cpip = 2-(4-chlorophenyl)-1 H-imidazo[4,5-f][1,10]phenanthroline, MeIm = 1-methylimidazole) has been synthesized and characterized. The cellular uptake, in vitro cytotoxicities, cell cycle arrest and apoptosis-inducing mechanism of this Ru(II) complex have been extensively explored by Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry (ICP-MS), 3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyltetrazolium bromide (MTT) assay, flow cytometry , Comet assay , inverted fluorescence microscope as well as Western blotting experimental techniques. Notably, Ru1 displayed relatively high cytotoxic activity against lung cancer A549 cells and had high selectivity between tumor and normal cells in comparison with cisplatin . Further studies showed that Ru1 caused cell cycle arrest at G0/G1 phase and induced apoptosis via the mitochondrial pathway, which involved reactive oxygen species (ROS) accumulation, mitochondrial dysfunction and Bcl-2 and caspase correlative family member activation. For providing more information about the possible antitumor mechanism, the in vitro DNA binding studies have been also investigated by different spectrophotometric methods, thermal denaturation and viscosity measurements.

In the present work, strong anodic electrogenerated chemiluminescence (ECL) of Ru(bpy)32+ was observed at a graphene oxide modified glassy carbon electrode (GO/GCE) in the absence of coreactants. The electrocatalytical effect of GO on the oxidation of Ru(bpy)32+ suggested that GO itself can act as the coreactant of Ru(bpy)32+ ECL, which can be used to fabricate the ECL biosensor. Thiol group terminated adenosine triphosphate (ATP) aptamer was immobilized on the GO film via DNA hybridization. When gold nanoparticles/graphene oxide (AuNPs/GO) nanocomposites were modified on the aptamer through the S–Au bond to form a sandwich-like structure, the ECL resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET) could occur between Ru(bpy)32+ and AuNPs/GO nanocomposites, resulting in an apparent decrease of ECL signal. After the ECL sensor was incubated in ATP solution, the AuNPs/GO nanocomposites were released from the electrode due to the specific interaction between aptamer and ATP, leading to the increased ECL signal. On the basis of these results, an ECL aptasensor was fabricated and could be used in the sensitive and selective detection of ATP in the range of 0.02–200 pM with a detection limit of 6.7 fM (S/N = 3). The proposed ECL aptasensor can be applied in the detection of ATP in real samples with satisfactory results.
