A ruthenium catalytic ortho-C–H diborylation of 2-arylpyridine derivatives, including challenging 2-phenoxypyridine functions, using a remarkably low catalyst loading and a low-cost and bench-stable boron source, has been developed. The novel strategy shows high activity with excellent selectivity and may offer a versatile and green alternative to currently employed high loadings of noble metals or extra additives for the selective borylations.

1-Oleoyl-2-palmitoyl-3-linoleoylglycerol (OPL) is a critical structured lipid in human milk fat and it plays an important role in infants' health. The development of an efficient method for such compound preparation is necessary. In this study, one- and two-step methods for OPL production by enzymatic acidolysis of fractionated palm stearin with mixed acids were compared in solvent-free and solvent systems. The results demonstrated that in the solvent system, the OPL contents by the one- and two-step methods were 45.8% and 56.7%, respectively. In the solvent-free system, the one- and two-step methods resulted in the formation of 43.7% and 54.8% OPL, respectively. Subsequently, acidolysis conditions of the two-step method were optimized. Under the optimum conditions, the content of OPL was 57.7%, and 83.2% of palmitic acid was at the sn-2 position . The prepared OPL has potential to be applied in infant formulas.

T-2 is a trichthecenes mycotoxin responsible for severe food poisoning and toxic influences in humans and animals. Therefore, a rapid and sensitive detection of T-2 is an urgent need to protect the public health mainly caused by the consumption of contaminated agricultural products. Herein, we have prepared one pot synthesis of aptamer functionalized silver nanoclusters (apt-AgNCs) for fluorescent detection of T-2 that relies on novel fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET). Apt-AgNCs, act as energy donor, were applied as fluorescent sensing probe whose fluorescence was quenched by MoS 2 employed as fluorescent acceptor. Introduction of target in proposed bioassay leads to desorption of Apt-AgNCs from MoS 2 , and recovery of fluorescence in a toxin concentration dependent-manner. A dynamic quantification range was 0.005–500 ng mL −1 while the LOD was 0.93 pg mL −1 . Spiking analysis reveals the efficiency and robustness of the developed assembly, with recovery percentages ranged from 89.46% to 102.08% and 90.41% to 107.75% in maize and wheat samples, respectively. The results were cross-verified using standard commercial T-2 EISA kit. In conclusion, developed bioassay may find good utility in testing for risk assessment of T-2 toxin.

In this study, the temperature dependence of dielectric behaviours and the polarisation and electrostrain responses of 0.4Bi(Ni 1/2 Zr 1/2 )O 3 –0.6PbTiO 3 (0.4BNZ–0.6PT) were studied to better understand their electrical performance. A Rietveld refinement analysis of the XRD pattern, supported by bright-field TEM images, suggests the coexistence of tetragonal and pseudocubic phases. Above 398 K, the normalised piezoelectric coefficient ( d 33 ∗ ) increases due to heating, reaching 941 pm/V at 453 K. Most importantly, 0.4BNZ–0.6PT displays obvious frequency dispersion in the ferroelectric state. A low-temperature dielectric anomaly occurred at approximately 175 K that was related to the origin of the frequency dispersion. The planar electromechanical coupling constant ( k p ) also changed considerably after heating, increasing from 0.14 at 90 K to 0.43 at 300 K. This indicates an intrinsic relationship between the dielectric and piezoelectric behaviours. Our study demonstrates that there is a significant difference between typical ferroelectrics and the ferroelectric state of 0.4BNZ–0.6PT relaxor ferroelectrics.

A series of Er3+/Yb3+ co-doped Cs3BiSr(P2O7)2 (CBSPO) phosphors with significant thermal enhancement were successfully prepared using the solid-state method and the thermal-enhancing effect was studied in detail. When the temperature increased from 303 to 723 K, the upconversion luminescence (UCL) emission intensities of 2H11/2 → 4I15/2 and 2H11/2 + 4S3/2 → 4I15/2 of Er3+ in CBSPO:0.1Er3+/0.2Yb3+ were enhanced 22.81 and 10.06 times under 980 nm laser excitation, respectively. Meanwhile, the UCL color of the sample obviously changed from orange to green with the increase in temperature. Furthermore, the UCL thermal enhancement mechanism was demonstrated, which originates from phonon-assisted transitions. In addition, the maximum absolute temperature sensitivity for CBSPO:0.1Er3+/0.2Yb3+ was calculated to be 0.01026 K−1 at 563 K via luminescence intensity ratio (LIR) technology. All the results show that the CBSPO:Er3+/Yb3+ phosphors can be used for safety warning and temperature measurement at high temperatures.

For many years, the dogma has been that insulin resistance precedes the development of hyperinsulinemia. However, recent data suggest a reverse order and place hyperinsulinemia mechanistically upstream of insulin resistance. Genetic background, consumption of the “modern” Western diet and over-nutrition may increase insulin secretion, decrease insulin pulses and/or reduce hepatic insulin clearance, thereby causing hyperinsulinemia. Hyperinsulinemia disturbs the balance of the insulin–GH–IGF axis and shifts the insulin : GH ratio towards insulin and away from GH. This insulin–GH shift promotes energy storage and lipid synthesis and hinders lipid breakdown, resulting in obesity due to higher fat accumulation and lower energy expenditure. Hyperinsulinemia is an important etiological factor in the development of metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, cancer and premature mortality. It has been further hypothesized that nutritionally driven insulin exposure controls the rate of mammalian aging. Interventions that normalize/reduce plasma insulin concentrations might play a key role in the prevention and treatment of age-related decline, obesity, type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease and cancer. Caloric restriction, increasing hepatic insulin clearance and maximizing insulin sensitivity are at present the three main strategies available for managing hyperinsulinemia. This may slow down age-related physiological decline and prevent age-related diseases. Drugs that reduce insulin (hyper) secretion, normalize pulsatile insulin secretion and/or increase hepatic insulin clearance may also have the potential to prevent or delay the progression of hyperinsulinemia-mediated diseases. Future research should focus on new strategies to minimize hyperinsulinemia at an early stage, aiming at successfully preventing and treating hyperinsulinemia-mediated diseases.

Cu 2 O is an ideal template material for the preparation of transition metal hydroxide/oxyhydroxides with oxygen evolution reaction (OER) enhanced catalytic performance. Here, inspired by Pearson's principle, Cu 2 O wires were prepared and used as a sacrificial template to prepare Ni(OH) 2 ·0.75H 2 O hollow tubes (Ni(OH) 2 HTs) with highly improved surface roughness. Benefiting from unique structural advantages, the Ni(OH) 2 HTs showed excellent catalytic activity, rapid kinetics and a long-term stability as the OER catalyst, where an overpotential of only 207 mV was required to drive a current density of 10 mA cm −2 , an ideal kinetics with a Tafel slope as 79.8 mV dec −1 was calculated, and no obvious attenuation in chronoamperometry was discovered after operation for 24 h. This paper provides a novel template-assisted strategy to prepare high-performance transition metal-based OER catalysts possessing hollow and tubular structures.

A Ni(OH) 2 /TiO 2 photoanode possessing high photoelectrocatalytic activity toward glucose oxidation driven by visible light was fabricated. The results indicated that deposition of Ni(OH) 2 on TiO 2 film electrode could remarkably promote the catalytic oxidation of glucose under visible light illumination. By applying a low voltage, the Ni(OH) 2 /TiO 2 electrode showed a linear photoelectrochemical response to glucose in the concentration range from 0.5 μM to 20 μM. Furthermore, the high photoelectrocatalytic activity of Ni(OH) 2 /TiO 2 electrode toward glucose oxidation was utilized to construct a glucose-air photofuel cell, which generated electrical signal responding to glucose concentration from 5 μM to 100 μM, without using external electrical power supply. Thus, dual non-enzymatic glucose sensors based on photocatalytic oxidation of glucose on the Ni(OH) 2 /TiO 2 electrode under visible light illumination were demonstrated.

The fast detection of 5-hydroxymethyl-2-furfural (HMF) in food industry is vital because of its toxicity and mutagenicity. A glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with black phosphorene (BP) nanosheets was prepared and coated with Nafion to improve stability. The electrode has excellent electrochemical stability and current response for HMF electroreduction. The good linear relationship is in the concentration range of 0.1–10 μg/mL with the detection limit of 0.012 μg/mL. HMF electroreduction is a diffusion-controlled process involving two electrons and two protons. The sensor was successfully applied to the measurement of HMF in milk with the recovery values of 92.92 %–96.33 %.

The synthesis of ultra-thin, uniform and continuous polyamide (PA) membranes is a crucial prerequisite for enhancing their desalination performance. Research has indicated that effectively slowing down the interfacial polymerization (IP) reaction and promoting the interface stability are key strategies for achieving ultra-thin, uniformly nano-structured membranes with excellent performance. Herein, we have demonstrated the successful design of a continuous and uniform PA membrane, ranging from 10 to 20 nm, by utilizing the UiO-66-(OH) 2 n-hexane dispersion as a transition layer to regulate IP reaction and enable efficient water-salt separation. The results showed that the presence of the transition layer facilitated a bidirectional diffusion-contact reaction between the two monomers, resulting in improved interface stability and alleviating the occurrence of severe IP that may lead to heterogeneous membrane structures. As a result, the PA active layers formed through this approach exhibited superior thinness and uniformity compared to those produced via traditional IP methods. Moreover, the transition layer enabled uniform pre-polymerization of UiO-66-(OH) 2 at the reaction interface by pre-exposing it to down-diffusing acyl chloride monomers. This ensured the continuity of membrane structure while creating additional free volume within the membrane. This work presented a scalable method for manufacturing ultra-thin, defect-free, homogeneous, and high-performance nanofiltration membranes.

The orthogonal polarized dual-wavelength laser has attracted increasing attention due to its unique applications in spectral analysis, differential radar, terahertz, etc. In this paper, the Nd-doped LiY(MoO4)2 (LYMO) crystal with a disordered structure is selected as a laser gain medium to obtain the dual-wavelength laser. The fluorescence spectra of the Nd:LYMO crystal show obvious polarization anisotropy, which is caused by the anisotropic lattice field. The π- and σ-polarized stimulated emission cross-sections at 1061 and 1068 nm are calculated to be 17.5 × 10–20, 8.7 × 10–20, 9.1 × 10–20, and 20.6 × 10–20 cm2, respectively. The lasers operating at 1061 and 1068 nm are obtained using c- and a-cut Nd:LYMO crystals, respectively. More importantly, a 1061 and 1068 nm orthogonally polarized dual-wavelength laser is also successfully designed and achieved using a 45°-cut Nd:LYMO crystal; the corresponding optical-to-optical conversion efficiency and slope efficiency are 27.9 and 31.7%, respectively. Our research confirms that the Nd:LYMO crystal can achieve efficient orthogonally polarized dual-wavelength laser output, which would have potential applications in differential frequency and terahertz fields.

A new Schiff-base ligand ( 1 ) with good fluorescence response to Al 3+ , derived from 2-oxo-quinoline-3-carbaldehyde and nicotinic hydrazide, had been synthesized and investigated in this paper. Spectroscopic investigation revealed that the compound 1 exhibited a high selectivity and sensitivity toward Al(III) ions over other commonly coexisting metal ions in ethanol, and the detection limit of Al 3+ ions is at the parts per billion level. The mass spectra and Job’s plot confirmed the 1:1 stoichiometry between 1 and Al 3+ . Potential utilization of 1 as intracellular sensors of Al 3+ ions in human cancer (HeLa) cells was also examined by confocal fluorescence microscopy.
