Floral–fruity aroma Pu-erh tea (FFAPET) is highly valued by consumers for its distinctive and appealing fragrance. This study conducted a comprehensive investigation into the volatile components of FFAPET using advanced analytical techniques, including GC-O-MS, GC-MS/MS, aroma recombination, and omission tests. Compared with traditional stale aroma Pu-erh tea, FFAPET exhibited higher levels of alcohols and alkenes. Through GC-O-MS combined with OAV analysis, 10 key active-aroma compounds were identified in representative FFAPET samples. These compounds included (E, E)-2,4-heptadienal, phenylethyl alcohol, geraniol, (E,Z)-2,6-nonadienal, (Z)-4-heptenal, 2-phenethyl acetate, 2,2,6-trimethylcyclohexanone,D-limonene,β-ionone, and linalool, all of which made significant contributions to the development of the characteristic floral–fruity aroma profile. Tests involving aroma recombination and omission further confirmed that seven of these odorants played essential roles in defining the overall aroma of FFAPET. These findings offer valuable theoretical insights for the enhancement and regulation of Pu-erh tea flavor, particularly for the optimization of the floral–fruity aroma characteristics.

To clarify the characteristic aroma compounds and flavor discrepancies of five Chinese typical pig species, headspace-solid phase microextraction gas chromatography–olfactometry-mass spectrometry (HS-SPME/GC-O-MS), electronic nose (E-nose), aroma recombination and omission experiments were used to analyze the characteristic aroma and boundary of five boiled pork. A total of 38 volatile compounds were identified, of which 14 were identified as important odorants with odor-activity values (OAVs) greater than 1. Aroma recombination and omission experiments revealed 8 key characteristic aroma compounds, which significantly contributed to the overall aroma. Sensory evaluation of the recombination model with the 8 aroma compounds scored 3.0 to 4.0 out of 5 points. 12 potential markers were identified to distinguish by principal component analysis (PCA) and partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA), including (E)-2-octenal, 3-ethyl-2-methyl-1,3-hexadiene, (E)-2-heptenal, 2-pentylfuran, cyclooctanol, 1-heptanol, sec -butylamine, D-limonene, N-vinylformamide, 2,3-octanedione, 2-ethylfuran and 3-pentanamine. Alongside benzaldehyde and pentanal, the combinations and fluctuations of these 14 aroma markers were proposed to constitute the aroma boundaries of different pork breeds. The aroma-active substances were able to effectively differentiate different breeds.

This study compared and elucidated the performance and mechanisms of aerobic and anoxic flocs in anoxic/aerobic-membrane bioreactor (A/O–MBR) for the printing and dyeing wastewater (PDW) treatment. The batch experiments were conducted with aerobic and anoxic flocs from our continuous laboratory-scale A/O–MBR for the PDW remediation. A distinct discrepancy between aerobic and anoxic activated sludge flocs for chemical oxygen demand (COD) and adsorbable organic halogens (AOX) removal was demonstrated. Specifically, the aerobic flocs exhibited considerable higher COD removal efficiencies (O1 59.0 %, O2 76.4 %) than the anoxic flocs (A1 56.5 %, A2 61.0 %) owing to the stronger organic biodegradability of aerobic respiration, while anoxic flocs exhibited greater performance on the AOX removal (A1 87.8 %) than aerobic flocs (O1 76.8 %) after 12 h biodegradation due to the greater abundance of AOX degradation relevant gene in anoxic flocs. Meanwhile, the study also revealed that the biodegradation was the principal mechanism for COD removal in PDW, whereas, both biodegradation and biosorption contributed to the AOX removal. This study provides valuable insights into the upgrading and reconstruction of A/O process in PDW treatment plants.

Oxygen and nitrogen-rich functional groups which are generally present in carbon materials may significantly affect their catalytic properties . The development of O, N-rich functional carbon materials with a simplified and low-budget strategy is of great importance for practical application. Herein, we describe a facile and straightforward method to prepare high contents of nitrogen and oxygen-rich carbon derived from ethylenediamine tetra-acetic acid tetra-sodium salt (Na 4 EDTA) by one-step carbonization in muffle furnace without inert gas protection. Compared with the carbon (EC-N700) synthesized in an argon atmosphere , the carbon (EC-A700) synthesized in an air-rich condition was more conducive to the formation of edge defects and topological defects and possessed higher contents of N and O elements. Consequently, the O, N-rich carbon EC-A700 was used as an efficient support of palladium nanoparticles toward catalytic formic acid dehydrogenation and nitroarene reduction. The catalyst Pd/EC-A700 achieved outstanding activity for formic acid dehydrogenation with a turnover frequency (TOF) up to 7039 h −1 at 60 °C. At the same time, the obtained catalyst Pd/EC-A700 also demonstrated exceptional catalytic performance in the 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) reduction with corresponding rate constant k of 0.72 min −1 under mild reaction conditions, which proved that the prepared catalyst Pd/EC-A700 has potentially applied in catalytic hydrogenation. This low-cost and simple approach breaks the tradition in mind that pyrolysis should always operate under inert conditions and provides a straightforward route to construct O, N-rich carbon as appealing materials for a wide variety of applications.

Four silver chalcogen compounds, Ag 2 O, Ag 2 S, Ag 2 Se and Ag 2 Te, can be utilized as visible-light-driven photocatalysts. In this research, the electronic structures of these compounds were analyzed by simulation and experiments to systematically reveal the relationship between photocatalytic performance and energetic structure. All four chalcogenides exhibited interesting photocatalytic activities under ultraviolet, visible and near-infrared light. However, their photocatalytic performances and stability significantly depended on the band gap width, and the valence band and conduct band position, which was determined by their composition. Increasing the X atomic number from O to Te resulted in the upward movement of the valence band top and the conduct band bottom, which resulted in narrower band gaps, a wider absorption spectrum, a weaker photo-oxidization capacity, a higher recombination probability of hole and electron pairs, lower quantum efficiency, and worse stability. Among them, Ag 2 O has the highest photocatalytic performance and stability due to its widest band gap and lowest position of VB and CB. The combined action of photogenerated holes and different radicals, depending on the different electronic structures, including anion ozone radical, hydroxide radical, and superoxide radical, was observed and understood. The results of experimental observations and simulations of the four silver chalcogen compounds suggested that a proper electronic structure is necessary to obtain a balance between photocatalytic performance and absorbable light region in the development of new photocatalysts.

Reduction of inflammation and thrombosis caused by implanted devices is critical for clinical success. To this end, the strategy based on programmable release of anti-inflammatory and anti-thrombotic agents from the widely-used polycaprolactone (PCL)/gelatin nanofiber scaffold is developed. The release of 2-O- d -Glucopyranosyl- l -ascorbic Acid (AA-2G) and heparin are controlled by reactive oxygen species (ROS)-responsive poly(ethylene glycol)-based β-thioether ester copolymer (PEGDA-EDT) and mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN) in the nanofiber, respectively. The in vitro assay demonstrate that the scaffolds are hemocompatible with the resistance of platelet adhesion; the control release of AA-2G prevents initial inflammation and oxidation of the blood cells, and the subsequent release of heparin entitles nanofibers with long-term anti-thrombotic capability. In addition, rapid endothelialization is obtained on the surface of nanofiber scaffolds for the further enhancement of the hemocompatibility. In vivo implant evaluation convinces that the nanofiber scaffolds possess high biocompatibility with the substantial resistance for inflammation and thrombosis. Hence, our work paves a new way to develop the anti-inflammatory and anti-thrombotic tissue-engineering substrates through programmable delivery of two or multiple drugs.

To recycle wastes and develop renewable energy, much effort has been focused on converting biowastes into porous carbon for supercapacitors. Porous nanocage-like carbons have excellent capacitive properties, but generally their preparation methods are costly or complex. Herein, a “one-step” strategy of synchronous activation and support through the thermal decomposition of a multifunctional template (magnesium acetate, Mg(Ac)2) is designed to prepare N-, O-, and S-codoped mesoporous hollow biochar nanocages (BNC-700). The BNC-700 prepared displays an interconnected porous structure and a two-dimensional (2D) multilayer wall/three-dimensional (3D) hollow nanocage structure with abundant active heteroatoms and edge defects. Due to their specific structures, high surface areas (1369 m2 g–1), and large pore volumes (1.81 cm3 g–1), the assembled supercapacitor delivers a considerable energy density of 37.4 Wh kg–1 at 212 W kg–1 and cycling stability of 99.5% after 15,000 cycles. The unique structure and N, O, and S codoping characteristics ensure a potential application for BNC-700 in supercapacitors. In summary, a strategy is designed for the green, simple, and cost-effective preparation of high-performance biochar for advanced energy storage devices.

Transition metals with 3d unoccupied orbitals have superior catalytic activity, but inherent high spin suppresses their adsorption capability, leading to sluggish polysulfide conversion kinetics for Li–S batteries. Herein, we provide Fe–O–Si bridge bonds to manipulate eg filling and induce a high-to-medium spin transition of Fe3+ sites, which enhances polysulfide adsorption and facilitates sulfur redox reaction kinetics. The resultant cathodes exhibit outstanding performances under high sulfur loading, which can deliver a high battery specific energy of 1061 mA h·g–1 even after 100 cycles in Li–S pouch batteries. This work provides new insights into the kinetic and multi-step conversion mechanism of the sulfur redox reaction process, helping in the understanding and design of spin-dependent catalysts.

Microplastics derived from plastic waste have emerged as a pervasive environmental pollutant with potential transfer and accumulation through the food chain, thus posing risks to both ecosystems and human health. The gut microbiota, tightly intertwined with metabolic processes, exert substantial influences on host physiology by utilizing dietary compounds and generating bacterial metabolites such as tryptophan and bile acid. Our previous studies have demonstrated that exposure to microplastic polystyrene (PS) disrupts the gut microbiota and induces colonic inflammation. Meanwhile, intervention with cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (C3G), a natural anthocyanin derived from red bayberry, could mitigate colonic inflammation by reshaping the gut bacterial composition. Despite these findings, the specific influence of gut bacteria and their metabolites on alleviating colonic inflammation through C3G intervention remains incompletely elucidated. Therefore, employing a C57BL/6 mouse model, this study aims to investigate the mechanisms underlying how C3G modulates gut bacteria and their metabolites to alleviate colonic inflammation. Notably, our findings demonstrated the efficacy of C3G in reversing the elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-α) and the upregulation of mRNA expression (Il-6, Il-1β, and Tnf-α) induced by PS exposure. Meanwhile, C3G effectively inhibited the reduction in levels (IL-22, IL-10, and IL-4) and the downregulation of mRNA expression (Il-22, Il-10, and Il-4) of anti-inflammatory cytokines induced by PS exposure. Moreover, PS-induced phosphorylation of the transcription factor NF-κB in the nucleus, as well as the increased level of protein expression of iNOS and COX-2 in the colon, were inhibited by C3G. Metabolisms of gut bacterial tryptophan and bile acids have been extensively implicated in the regulation of inflammatory processes. The 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing disclosed that PS treatment significantly increased the abundance of pro-inflammatory bacteria (Desulfovibrio, norank_f_Oscillospiraceae, Helicobacter, and Lachnoclostridium) while decreasing the abundance of anti-inflammatory bacteria (Dubosiella, Akkermansia, and Alistipes). Intriguingly, C3G intervention reversed these pro-inflammatory changes in bacterial abundances and augmented the enrichment of bacterial genes involved in tryptophan and bile acid metabolism pathways. Furthermore, untargeted metabolomic analysis revealed the notable upregulation of metabolites associated with tryptophan metabolism (shikimate, l-tryptophan, indole-3-lactic acid, and N-acetylserotonin) and bile acid metabolism (3b-hydroxy-5-cholenoic acid, chenodeoxycholate, taurine, and lithocholic acid) following C3G administration. Collectively, these findings shed new light on the protective effects of dietary C3G against PS exposure and underscore the involvement of specific gut bacterial metabolites in the amelioration of colonic inflammation.

The structure-activity relationship (SAR) between toxicity and the types of linking ketones of C7 bridged monocarbonyl curcumin analogs (MCAs) was not clear yet. In the pursuit of effective and less cytotoxic chemotherapeutics, we conducted a SAR analysis using various diketene skeletons of C7-bridged MCAs, synthesized cyclic C7-bridged MCAs containing the identified low-toxicity cyclopentanone scaffold and an o-methoxy phenyl group, and assessed their anti-gastric cancer activity and safety profile. Most compounds exhibited potent cytotoxic activities against gastric cancer cells. We developed a quantitative structure-activity relationship model (R2 > 0.82) by random Forest method, providing important information for optimizing structure. An optimized compound 2 exhibited in vitro and in vivo anti-gastric cancer activity partly through inhibiting the AKT and STAT3 pathways, and displayed a favorable in vivo safety profile. In summary, this paper provided a promising class of MCAs and a potential compound for the development of chemotherapeutic drugs.

Fabricating inorganic ceramics with stable high-temperature electromagnetic (EM) attenuation properties via the construction of three-dimensional (3D) nanofiber networks continues to pose significant challenges. In this work, the dielectric properties and microwave attenuation performance were significantly enhanced through the precise morphological and architectural control of a 3D TiO₂ nanowire (TiO₂ nws) network within Sc₂Si₂O₇, which was achieved by modulating the sintering temperature during coprecipitation and sintering. The TiO 2 nws/Sc₂Si₂O₇ (ST-800, sintered at 800 ℃) exhibited excellent microwave absorption properties, with a minimum reflection loss (RL min ) of –21.45 dB at 2.25 mm and an effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) reaching 3.7 GHz at a matching thickness of 2.55 mm. The radar cross-section significantly decreased by 17.28 dB·m² at 0°. Moreover, ST-800 has a broad temperature range from 100 600 °C, with an RL below –20 dB, an EAB exceeding 3.8 GHz, and a matching thickness of less than 2.75 mm. This stable and excellent microwave absorption performance at elevated temperatures can be attributed to the well-maintained impedance matching behavior, along with the synergistic compensation between the polarization loss and conduction loss across a broad temperature range. These findings provide valuable guidance for the development of high-temperature stable EM wave absorbing materials.
