The utilization of titanium dioxide (TiO2) as a photocatalyst for the treatment of wastewater has attracted significant attention in the environmental field. Herein, we prepared an NH2-MIL-125-derived N-doped TiO2@C Visible Light Catalyst through an in situ calcination method. The nitrogen element in the organic connector was released through calcination, simultaneously doping into the sample, thereby enhancing its spectral response to cover the visible region. The as-prepared N-doped TiO2@C catalyst exhibited a preserved cage structure even after calcination, thereby alleviating the optical shielding effect and further augmenting its photocatalytic performance by increasing the reaction sites between the catalyst and pollutants. The calcination time of the N-doped TiO2@C-450 °C catalyst was optimized to achieve a balance between the TiO2content and nitrogen doping level, ensuring efficient degradation rates for basic fuchsin (99.7%), Rhodamine B (89.9%) and tetracycline hydrochloride (93%) within 90 min. Thus, this study presents a feasible strategy for the efficient degradation of pollutants under visible light.Keywords:titanium dioxide;NH2-MIL-125;N-doped TiO2@C;visible light photocatalysis;wastewater pollutants

β- N -acetylhexosaminidases (HEXs) are key chitin-degrading enzymes in insects. Here, we identified TuHex1 and TuHex2 using insect orthologous genes by searching Tetranychus urticae genome and transcriptome database to investigate their roles in mite molting. TuHex1 and TuHex2 expression was induced by 20-hydroxyecdysone (20E), and inhibition of TuHex1 and TuHex2 expression by RNAi resulted in wrinkled cuticle or an inability to shed the old cuticle in nymphs, which may be due to a reduction in particle deposition in the exocuticle and lamellar structure in the endocuticle as revealed by scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy. The results suggest that the TuHex1 and TuHex2 genes play an essential role in the molting and developmental process of the mite. TuHex2 , with a mortality rate of 67.41 % in the leaf disc assay, was a potential RNAi target by oral feeding. Spraying of nanocarrier-delivered bacteria expressing ds TuHex2 at 500 ng/μL kept spider mites at a consistently low level throughout the 14 days and showed good mite control comparable to that of matrine. In addition, nanocarrier-delivered ds TuHex2 is safe for Neoseiulus californicus in our experiments, providing its potential for green mite management.

Prominent thermal management, electromagnetic interference(EMI) shielding, and anti-ionizing radiation capabilities are essential trends in developing flexible materials. In this study, we developed a novel flexible MXene/polyvinyl alcohol/ microencapsulated phase change material (MPM) phase change composite film with a sandwich structure using an alternating vacuum filtration method. This film demonstrates good toughness, strength, stability, and durability. Incorporating microencapsulated phase change material(MEPCMs) enhances the enthalpy of the films (110.2J/g). Additionally, due to the incorporation of phase change microcapsules with a unique barium sulfate-based (BaSO 4 ) as the wall material, the films not only possess EMI shielding performance(39.7 dB), but also exhibits resistance to ionizing radiation(4.62 cm 2 g −1 ). Notably, the film can convert light and electrical energy into heat and store this heat as latent heat within the MEPCMs, enabling multi-source thermal management capability. The ease of preparation and exceptional performance of MPM make it highly suitable for a wide range of industrial and wearable applications.

Though RNAi and RNA-splicing machineries are involved in regulating severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) replication, their precise roles in coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pathogenesis remain unclear. Herein, we show that decreased RNAi component (Dicer and XPO5) and splicing factor (SRSF3 and hnRNPA3) expression correlate with increased COVID-19 severity. SARS-CoV-2 N protein induces the autophagic degradation of Dicer, XPO5, SRSF3, and hnRNPA3, inhibiting miRNA biogenesis and RNA splicing and triggering DNA damage, proteotoxic stress, and pneumonia. Dicer, XPO5, SRSF3, and hnRNPA3 knockdown increases, while their overexpression decreases, N protein-induced pneumonia’s severity. Older mice show lower expression of Dicer, XPO5, SRSF3, and hnRNPA3 in their lung tissues and exhibit more severe N protein-induced pneumonia than younger mice. PJ34, a poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor, or anastrozole, an aromatase inhibitor, ameliorates N protein- or SARS-CoV-2-induced pneumonia by restoring Dicer, XPO5, SRSF3, and hnRNPA3 expression. These findings will aid in developing improved treatments for SARS-CoV-2-associated pneumonia.

Hard carbon (HC) with larger interlayer spacing, lower operation potential and stable skeleton is a promising kind of anode materials for sodium-ion batteries (SIBs), where heteroatom doping and structural design have been proved to be effective strategies to improve its Na + storage performance. Herein, biomass agar-derived N-doped porous carbon (NPC-Ts, T = 750, 900 and 1050 °C) were successfully fabricated by modulating carbonization temperature, where interlayer spacing, specifical surface area (SSA), micro/mesopore amount and N-doping levels and configurations (pyridinic N (N-6), pyrrolic N (N-5) and graphite N (N-Q)) were explored in detail. Among the NPC-900 shows the largest interlayer spacing (0.412 nm), SSA (3991 m 2 /g) and sum percentage of N-6 and N-5 (76.7 %). When applied as anode material for SIBs, NPC-900 exhibits the highly reversible capacity (430.9 mAh/g at 100 mA/g after 100 cycles) and excellent rate capability (162 mAh/g at 5000 mA/g) and outstanding cycle life (242.6 mAh/g at 1000 mA/g after 5000 cycles). More importantly, when coupled with Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (NVP) cathode, the Na + full cell displays the highest practical energy density of 267 Wh/kg to date, to the best our knowledge, revealing its potential practical sodium storage applications.

Graphical Increase of graphitic-N doping and graphitization degree of outside shells encapsulating Ni nanoparticles was developed to efficiently promote cathodic reduction of CO 2 to CO. Despite of high conductivity and reducing ability, transition metal nanoparticles tend to aggregate and unavoidably impact the selectivity during the proton-coupled reduction process of CO 2 RR. New strategy to regulate and utilize the electronic property of transition-metal particles allows for effective tuning of eCO 2 RR activity. Through simple creation of N-doped carbon shells surrounding Ni nanoparticles and controlling the amount and arrangement of the N atoms, successful and long-lasting electrochemical reduction of CO 2 was accomplished. The inherent HER activity was almost completely suppressed. It exhibited FE CO above 90 % in a 500 mV potential window, with the optimal up to 96.5 % at −0.78 V vs RHE. In flow cell electrolysis, a current density of 289.4 mA/cm 2 was achieved with Faradic efficiency of 96.4 % towards CO. The results of control experiments using different catalysts imply that electron transfer between Ni core and shells was significantly influenced by the property of N atoms. High content of graphitic nitrogen is crucial for the catalytic performance.

Prussian blue (PB) as a type of metal-organic framework has attracted widespread attention in the field of electromagnetic wave (EMW) absorption due to its adjustable composition and structure. N-doped porous carbon/rGO/Fe 4 N composite is prepared by carbonizing and nitriding PB precursor. Fe 4 N/rGO/NPC exhibits the minimum reflection loss (RL min ) is −53.09 dB at 16.16 GHz of 2.2 mm, with an effective absorption bandwidth (EAB) value of 7.84 GHz (10.16–18 GHz) at 2.6 mm. The EMW absorption mechanisms analysis displayed that excellent impedance matching and various attenuation pathways including magnetic loss, conduction loss, interfacial and dipole polarization synergistically contributed to the high EMW absorption performances. The results indicate that the Fe 4 N/rGO/NPC composite derived from PB precursor presents great potential in the field of EMW absorption.

Efficient electrocatalytic co-reduction of CO 2 and NO 3 − to urea involves simultaneous generation and stabilization of C- and N-coupling intermediates. Herein, we report positive feedback at the interfaces of an AuPd/SnO x catalyst that enables generation and stable co-adsorption of *CO and *NH 2 OH at low-potential, fostering efficient C-N coupling for urea formation. A combination of in-situ spectroscopic analyses and theoretical calculations show that *CO 2 captures electrons by bonding to the AuPd/SnO x interface, leading to positively charged Pd sites, which promote the NO 3 RR to give the key N-intermediate *NH 2 OH. The adsorbed *NH 2 OH provides electron feedback to the catalyst surface , which not only enhances the adsorption of CO 2 and promotes the conversion of *CO 2 to *CO to accelerate the CO 2 RR, but also enhances the adsorption strength of the catalyst for *CO. Owing to this positive feedback, the Faraday efficiency and yield of urea reached 21.3 % and 1280.5 μg∙h −1 ∙mg −1 at −0.2 V (versus the relative hydrogen electrode), surpassing the performance of most previously reported catalysts. This finding provides new insights into catalyst design for advancing C-N coupling systems.

In this research, we introduce a novel and efficient approach for enhancing both the antibacterial efficacy and resistance to protein fouling of nanofiltration (NF) membranes, marking the first report of a method capable of concurrently addressing these critical membrane performance parameters. After traditional interface polymerization (IP), NF membranes were post-treated by the antibacterial N-(3-Aminopropyl)-imidazole (ANPI) which can be grafted on the membrane by its amino group reacting with rest acyl chloride in IP on the surface. After parameter optimization of the ANPI concentration, the modified membrane NF-12 demonstrated up to 99% antibacterial activity against two representative pathogens, Escherichia coli and Staphylococcus aureus . Except for this, due to the zwitterionic effect, the modified membrane achieved a remarkable 68.7% enhancement in water flux and the recovery rate of BSA cyclic pollution reached 97.5%. From mechanism analysis, it can be proposed that the post-grafted ANPI brought antibacterial properties to the NF membrane, which was able to kill bacteria attached to the membrane surfaces. Also, the imidazole protonation introduced positive charges to the NF membrane surface, mixing with negative charges produced by acyl chloride hydration, which produced the zwitterionic effect and facilitated the formation of a robust hydrophilic hydration layer, thereby significantly diminishing the adhesion of contaminants.

Van der Waals (vdWs) p–n junctions assembled from 2D materials offer enhanced flexibility for creating versatile electronic and optoelectronic devices, attracting significant interest. However, the lack of reliable methods to produce high-quality p-type 2D semiconductors, especially patterned p-type channels, remains a major challenge for progress in the field. Here, a precise substitutional doping strategy for 2D semiconductors is presented, enabling the production of millimeter-scale WS 2 single-crystal thin films with tailored p-type and n-type properties. This advancement supports the fabrication of high-performance WS 2 -based p-type and n-type field-effect transistor (FET) miniaturized arrays with near-ohmic contact. Building on this progress, a WS 2 van der Waals homojunction p-n array demonstrating distinct anti-ambipolar behavior and excellent rectification characteristics is developed. In self-powered photodetection mode, leveraging the strong coupling of the vdWs homojunction interface, the device achieves an exceptional photovoltaic effect with a high specific detectivity of 3.4 × 10 10 Jones and a fast response time of 400 µs. The development of WS 2 p-n homojunction arrays presents immense potential for advancing next-generation logic electronics and optoelectronic devices, opening new avenues for large-scale industrial applications.

Extracellular vesicles, such as Escherichia coli outer membrane vesicles (OMVs), have been widely explored as carriers for contrast agents, yet their application in ultrasound imaging remains limited. In this study, heat-responsive nB-OMVs are developed by loading n-butanol into OMVs (nB-OMVs). Upon heating, the decreased solubility of n-butanol triggered phase separation within the vesicles, resulting in enhanced ultrasound signals, including fundamental, harmonic, and subharmonic components. Experimental results demonstrated that nB-OMVs retained the native morphology of OMVs, along with their tumor-targeting accumulation and tumor growth inhibition capabilities. nB-OMVs injection induces red blood cell extravasation into tumors, under near-infrared (NIR) irradiation, these extravasated RBCs acted as photothermal mediators, generating a localized thermal environment that activated intratumoral nB-OMVs and further amplified the ultrasound signal. In B-mode and contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) imaging, tumor grayscale intensities increased by 4.6- and 8.5-fold, respectively. This work provides a promising strategy for ultrasound-based tumor imaging using extracellular vesicles.

In this study, a N-functionalized porous carbon derived from ZIF-8 (NFPC) was prepared and applied for the gaseous acetone and toluene adsorption removal. The NFPC perfectly inherited the morphology of parent ZIF-8, posed a high specific surface area (S BET = 1228 m 2 ·g −1 ), be rich in surface nitrogen functional groups, and resulting in a good dynamic adsorption of the VOCs. The NFPC-1000 exhibited the best adsorption performance of low concentration acetone and toluene, with equilibrium adsorption capacity of 203.4 and 297.1 mg·g −1 at 25 °C respectively. The acetone and toluene adsorption were spontaneously and exothermic, given the negative values of free energy (ΔG) and enthalpy (ΔH). The difference of acetone and toluene adsorption on NFPC attributed to the affinity difference (boiling point, polarity and molecular diameter), the nitrogen-containing functional groups (pyridinic-N) and the cation-π bonding. Therefore, the NFPC was found to be more favorable for aromatic compounds adsorption, the toluene adsorption of NFPC-1000 only decreased 5.3% after 6 cycles reuse, while its adsorption capacity of acetone lost more than 60%.
