The misuse of the antibiotic ampicillin (AMP) has led to the presence of antibiotic residues in related products, which enter the human body through the ecological or food chain to produce a variety of toxic side effects. There is an urgent need to develop enzyme-based assays with higher specificity to determine antibiotic residues in food. Hereby, bismuth tungstate (Bi 2 WO 6 ) was synthesized using a simple hydrothermal and calcination process. Carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs-COOH) were mixed with Bi 2 WO 6 by ultrasonication to form composite as modifier on glassy carbon electrode (GCE) surface. Meanwhile, metal β-lactamases (MBLs) were mixed with chitosan to be immobilized on it to obtain the MBLs/CS/Bi 2 WO 6 /MWCNTs-COOH/GCE. Under the optimal conditions, differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) was used for the quantitative detection of AMP. The experimental results showed that the peak currents were linearly correlated with the concentrations of AMP (0.0007–0.05 μM) and (0.1–10 µM) (R 2 = 0.9965 and 0.9956), and the detection limit was 0.17 nM (S/N = 3). The method has good repeatability, reproducibility, stability and immunity to interference, and can be applied to the highly sensitive detection of AMP in real samples with recoveries of 92.4–96.8 % and 94.3–103.0 %.

Contrast-enhanced computed tomography perfusion (CTP) imaging is a critical clinical tool for evaluating cerebral blood flow after acute ischemic stroke (AIS), enabling accurate diagnosis and treatment planning. However, conventional iodine-based contrast agents may lead to allergic reactions and are contraindicated in patients with thyroid disorders. This study introduces Bi-DTPA dimeglumine, a renal-clearable and iodine-free bismuth chelate, for AIS perfusion assessment via CTP imaging. Bi-DTPA dimeglumine is synthesized through a simple and scalable process with nearly 100% yield (laboratory synthesis >100 g) and demonstrates excellent biocompatibility and efficient renal clearance. In a middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) rat model, Bi-DTPA dimeglumine-enhanced CTP imaging accurately visualized vascular perfusion deficits, showing reduced cerebral blood volume (CBV) and cerebral blood flow (CBF), alongside prolonged time-to-maximum (Tmax) and mean transit time (MTT). Compared to iohexol, Bi-DTPA dimeglumine provided superior vascular contrast in computed tomography angiography (CTA), with contrast-to-noise ratio (CNR) improvements of 129.8 and 93.5% in normal and MCAO rats, respectively. Notably, CTP imaging revealed distinct reperfusion dynamics in ischemic regions postrecanalization. This iodine-free imaging agent marks a significant advancement in precise AIS diagnosis and post-treatment evaluation, addressing key limitations of existing contrast agents while enhancing diagnostic accuracy and safety.

A magnetic MOF composite was successfully prepared by a novel and green strategy through reasonable design. The nano Fe3O4@SiO2 core was first coated by a shell of Cu(OH)2 as the self-template, followed by a conversion of Cu(OH)2 into HKUST-1 at room temperature in a water–ethanol mixture solvent, and Fe3O4@SiO2@HKUST-1 core–shell nanostructures were obtained successfully. Based on this, a Bi-I-functionalized-magnetic HKUST-1 composite was prepared through a flexible coordination-based post-synthetic strategy. Powder X-ray diffraction spectrometry, N2 sorption–desorption isotherms and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were used for the characterization of the magnetic MOF composites. The core–shell morphology was confirmed by transmission electron microscope images and the result of thermogravimetric analysis showed that the magnetic composites had excellent thermal stability. Besides, the adsorption of Hg2+ on Fe3O4@SiO2, Fe3O4@SiO2@HKUST-1 and Bi-I-functionalized magnetic MOF composites was investigated, and a good adsorption selectivity of Bi-I-functionalized magnetic MOF composites towards Hg2+ was demonstrated, with high adsorption capacity (264 mg g−1) and fast adsorption dynamics. The Bi-I-functionalized magnetic HKUST-1 composite was then successfully employed for the selective removal of Hg2+ from water, demonstrating great potential application of the prepared magnetic MOF composite as a fascinating adsorbent in environmental monitoring.

The chemical composition, size and shape, and surface engineering play key roles in the performance of electronic, optoelectronic, and energy devices. V2VI3 (V = Sb, Bi; VI = S, Se) group materials are actively studied in these fields. In this paper, we introduce a colloidal method to synthesize uniform ternary (BixSb1–x)2S3 (0 < x < 1) nanorods. These nanorods show composition-dependent aspect ratios, enabling their composition, size, and shape control by varying Bi/Sb precursor ratios. It is found that the surface passivation by various thiols (L–SH) efficiently enhances the photoconductivity and optical responsive capability of (BixSb1–x)2S3 nanorods when used as active materials in indium tin oxide (ITO)/(BixSb1–x)2S3/ITO optoelectronic devices. Meanwhile, the increase of Sb content causes a gradual deterioration of photoconductivity of thiol-passivated nanorods. We propose that the thiol passivation is able to reduce the number of S vacancies, which act as the recombination centers (trapped states) for photogenerated electrons and holes, and thus boosts the carrier transport in (BixSb1–x)2S3 nanorods, and in particular that the composition-related conductivity deterioration is attributed to the increase of unpassivated S vacancies and surface oxidation due to the rise of Sb content.

The increasing prevalence and incidence urge efficient treatment of osteoarthritis (OA). In contrast, a single modality is hard to combat OA's complicated pathogenesis and achieve comprehensive chondroprotective function. Through RNA sequencing, we identified bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cell-derived exosomes (BMSC-Exo) and cartilage progenitor cell-derived exosomes (CPC-Exo) have distinct enrichment of miRNA contents, emphasizing macrophage and chondrocyte modulation, respectively. Thus, inspiring us to develop a bi-exosome combination strategy, which combines anti-inflammatory BMSC-Exo and anti-catabolic CPC-Exo, to alleviate osteoarthritis progression via simultaneous regulation of macrophage polarization and chondrocyte phenotype. Once delivered into the rat knee joint cavity by hyaluronic acid methacryloyl microspheres, the bi-exosome combination remarkably postponed OA progression via combating the joint inflammatory and catabolic environment, in which the dominant interventive pathways ( i.e. , miR-708–5p/NRP-1, miR-431/BRCA-1/PLK-1, and miR-7a-5p/NOTCH-3) were further revealed. This work presents the tailoring of exosome compositions to modulate multitargeting, thereby creating a potential for OA treatment.

A high-shielding, low secondary radiation, lightweight, flexible, and wearable X-ray protection material was prepared by coimpregnating La2O3 and Bi2O3 nanoparticles in natural leather (NL) with an additional Bi2O3 coating at the bottom surface of the leather. The prepared Bi28.2@Bi3.48La3.48–NL (28.2 and 3.48 mmol·cm–3 are the loading contents of elements) showed excellent X-ray shielding ability (65–100%) in a wide energy range of 20–120 keV with reduced scattered secondary radiation (30%). The bottom surface coating played a critical role in enhancing the X-ray attenuation and reducing the scattered secondary radiation by reflecting and deflecting incident X-ray photons. Excellent mechanical property with superb bending resistance of the NL matrix was properly maintained, and its tensile strength and tearing load were 15.39 MPa and 25.81 N·mm–1, respectively. This lightweight and wearable high-performance protection material can facilitate safety and comfortability during intensive activities of practitioners in the health care industry.

In this study, the NaAg 1-x Bi x/3 MoO 4 (x = 0.06, 0.12, 0.18, and 0.24) ceramics were successfully synthesized via solid-state reaction at 400–535 °C. Notably, the NaAg 0.82 Bi 0.06 MoO 4 ceramic exhibited exceptional dielectric properties at 450 °C (ε r = 7.39 ± 0.05, Q × f = 18,867 ± 1480 GHz, τ f = −84.8 ± 1.3 ppm/°C). The Rietveld refinement confirmed its spinel-like structure belonging to the Fd-3m (227) space group, along with the formation of a Na 0.5 Bi 0.5 MoO 4 secondary phase, as supported by SEM and EDS analyses. Further investigation revealed that the Na 0.5 Bi 0.5 MoO 4 phase adversely impacted the Q × f value, while the relative density positively correlated with Q × f. Based on the Shannon additivity rule, the contribution of Bi 3+ ions to ε r was elucidated. The P–V-L theory provided a theoretical foundation for understanding the dielectric behavior of NaAg 1-x Bi x/3 MoO 4 ceramics. Additionally, Raman spectroscopy directly confirmed the enhancement of molecular polarizability by Bi 3+ ions and disclosed a negative correlation between the A 1g vibration mode and Q × f, further elucidating the intimate link between internal lattice vibrations and microwave dielectric properties.

The development of advanced electrode materials with high specific capacitance and long-term stability is crucial for next-generation supercapacitors. In this work, a novel Bi₂O₂Se/polyaniline (PANI) composite electrode was synthesized via an optimised synthesis protocol. The developed composite exhibited remarkable electrochemical performance, achieving a specific capacity of 630.5 mAh g⁻¹ at 1 A g⁻¹ – surpassing the performance of pristine Bi₂O₂Se (266.7 mAh g⁻¹) by a factor of 2.3. Notably, it achieved 60 % capacity retention at an ultra-high current density of 20 A g⁻¹ and maintains 73 % capacity retention after 5000 cycles, demonstrating outstanding cycling stability. These breakthroughs stem from the synergistic interplay between Bi₂O₂Se's interlayer architecture and PANI's pseudocapacitive properties. This work establishes the Bi₂O₂Se/PANI composite as a promising electrode material for next-generation supercapacitors and offers a versatile design framework for flexible electronics and grid-scale renewable energy storage systems.

Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) is currently regarded as a refractory pollutant. The development efficient degradation technologies remains a critical challenge owing to the strong stability of C-F bond. However, current photocatalytic approaches for PFOA degradation suffer from slow reaction kinetics. Herein, a series of ultrathin BiOCl@g-C 3 N 4 (BiCN) was prepared using a hydrothermal method, and their PFOA degradation performance was evaluated. The most effective photocatalyst (BiCN-2) achieved a 92.3% PFOA removal rate within 30 min (rate constant k = 0.1059 min −1 ), with a corresponding defluorination efficiency of 24.8%. Specifically, the exposed (101) facets of BiOCl accelerate electron movement, whereas the BiOCl@g-C 3 N 4 heterojunction interface enhances the separation of photogenerated charges. Additionally, the metallic Bi nanoparticles acted as both electron bridges and sources of hot electrons via the surface plasmon resonance effect, further boosting the reaction. Superoxide radicals, photogenerated electrons, and photogenerated holes were identified as the main reactive species in the degradation reaction. Density functional theory was employed to determine the interaction mechanism between PFOA and the photocatalyst. This study provides insights into an efficient alternative for the photocatalytic degradation of PFOA.

This paper presents for the first time a novel method of depositing plasmonic Bi nanoparticles on BiOCl nanosheets (Bi/BiOCl) via insitu photoelectroreduction, and Bi/BiOCl as the photocathode enabled solar water splitting in a TiO2–Bi/BiOCl photoelectrochemical (PEC) system. It is one of the challenges to understand the relationship between the PEC performance and the composite ratio of Bi/BiOCl, and the density functional theory calculation results show that charges obviously transfer from the Bi cluster to the BiOCl (001) surface. The structure of Bi/BiOCl photocathode has been successfully optimized, according to the current–potential curves and charge injection efficiency. The highly enhanced PEC activity could be attributed to the dual roles of Bi nanoparticles in enhancing the charge transfer and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) effect. More importantly, the optimal Bi/BiOCl photocathode achieved a solar hydrogen evolution rate of 2.4 µmol h−1 under full spectrum illumination (100 mW cm−2).

The development of nanohybrid with high electrocatalytic activity is of great significance for electrochemical sensing applications. In this work, we develop a novel and facile method to prepare a high-performance flexible nanohybrid paper electrode, based on nitrogen-doped carbon (NC) wrapped Bi nanoparticles (Bi-NPs) assembly derived from Bi-MOF, which are decorated on a flexible and freestanding graphene paper (GP) electrode. The as-obtained Bi-NPs encapsulated by an NC layer are uniform, and the active sites are increased by introducing a nitrogen source while preparing Bi-MOF. Owing to the synergistic effect between the high conductivity of GP electrode and the highly efficient electrocatalytic activity of Bi-NPs, the NC wrapped Bi-NPs (Bi-NPs@NC) modified GP (Bi-NPs@NC/GP) electrode possesses high electrochemically active area, rapid electron-transfer capability, and good electrochemical stability. To demonstrate its outstanding functionality, the Bi-NPs@NC/GP electrode has been integrated into a handheld electrochemical sensor for detecting heavy metal ions. The result shows that Zn2+, Cd2+, and Pb2+can be detected with extremely low detection limits, wide linear range, high sensitivity, as well as good selectivity. Furthermore, it demonstrates outstanding electrochemical sensing performance in the simultaneous detection of Zn2+, Cd2+, and Pb2+. Finally, the proposed electrochemical sensor has achieved excellent repeatability, reproducibility, stability, and reliability in measuring real water samples, which will have great potential in advanced applications in environmental systems.Keywords:Bi nanoparticles;nitrogen-doped carbon;flexible and freestanding graphene paper electrode;electrochemical catalysis and sensing;heavy metal ions detection

Photoelectrochemical (PEC) seawater splitting can relive the shortage of purified water feedstocks . However, the corrosion from seawater on the photoelectrode becomes an uncertain influence factor for PEC performance. Developing an efficient and stable photoelectrode is a challenge. Herein, we present a Bi–BiOI shell-core microspheres modified TiO 2 nanotube arrays (TNA) photoanode prepared via solvothermal method , affording superior PEC hydrogen evolution activity in simulated seawater under AM1.5G light, which is 3.8 and 7.6 times than those of BiOI/TNA and TNA, respectively. Solar-to-hydrogen conversion efficiency of Bi–BiOI/TNA reaches to 2.21% with Faradaic efficiency up to 85.7%. Based on the optical and PEC measurements, it is verified that surface plasmon resonance effect of metallic Bi promotes transfer and separation of photogenerated charge and enhances visible-light absorption, thus benefiting higher PEC performance. Especially, Bi shell efficiently hinders the corrosion of BiOI by seawater. Our work provides a novel paradigm of photoanode for efficient and stable PEC seawater splitting.
