Electronic structure tuning is an effective strategy to activate transition metals. In this study, silica-promoted γ-Al 2 O 3 -supported Fe-based hydrodesulfurization catalysts of Fe species with electron loss were successfully prepared by transferring electrons from Fe to Si. The characterization results showed that the Fe-based hydrodesulfurization catalyst with the addition of silica modulated the structure and properties of the active metal, which not only improved the degree of sulfidation of the active metal but also promoted the generation of Fe(III)-S. The hydrodesulfurization rate of dibenzothiophene showed a remarkable rise from 38.4 to 83.2% at 673 K. Importantly, the formation of Fe(III)-S greatly stretched the bond length of Fe-S bonds, exhibiting an increase of approximately 21%, this facilitating the generation of coordinatively unsaturated active site. Finally, the HDS reaction performance of the Fe-based hydrodesulfurization catalysts was mainly influenced by the Fe(III)-S/Fe(II)-S ratio, with the most significant enhancement in the direct desulfurization reaction path. The results of this study provide a promising approach for the design and development of environmentally friendly and economical Fe-based catalysts in the field of clean fuels.

Modification of graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) with semiconductor nanomaterials has been widely investigated as an effective method to enhance its photocatalytic activity. However, the construction of efficient g-C3N4-based heterojunction photocatalysts via an environmentally benign method remains critical. Herein, a two-dimensional (2D) few-layered MoS2/S-doped g-C3N4 hierarchical heterojunction was successfully synthesized by a simple strategy via combining small molecule-assisted liquid exfoliation, calcination and hydrothermal strategy, which was subsequently utilized for photocatalytic formaldehyde removal. The evaluation of the photocatalytic degradation reaction showed that the as-prepared 2D/2D MoS2/S-doped g-C3N4 photocatalysts exhibited superior photocatalytic activity compared to pristine g-C3N4 and S-doped g-C3N4 alone, which was attributed to the intimate interface and rapid charge transfer pathways. This heterojunction structure suppresses the excited electron–hole pair recombination within g-C3N4, which optimally enhances the photodegradation activity owing to high electron–hole pair separation efficiency. The few-layer MoS2 nanosheets play an irreplaceable role due to their unique molybdenum–sulfur atomic arrangement, thereby displaying the superior electronic properties of few-layer or even monolayer nanosheets, which make them an important transfer medium for photoexcited electrons. Meanwhile, S doping effectively modulates the band gap of g-C3N4 and introduces sufficient structural defects to inhibit electron–hole recombination. Moreover, the synthesis employs efficient and non-hazardous reagents, and the resulting catalysts exhibit outstanding stability and recyclability for pollutant degradation.

Rational electrode design unlocks the kinetic limitations of vanadium redox flow battery (VRFB). Herein, we present a one-step electrochemical oxidation strategy under mild acidic conditions to fabricate N-S co-doped graphite felt (GF@N-S) electrodes. This innovative approach achieves simultaneous in situ sulfonation and amination on carbon surface, constructing a hierarchical porous architecture with dual-active sites—a previously unreported configuration for VRFBs. Distinguished by its simplicity, scalability, and metal-free, our method circumvents cost limitations while suppressing hydrogen evolution side reactions. The GF@N-S electrode exhibits a remarkable triple synergy: (1) N-S co-doping significantly reduces charge-transfer resistance, (2) an optimized pore architecture enhances mass transport, and (3) a tailored electronic structure dramatically accelerates reaction kinetics. As a result, the electrode achieves remarkable energy efficiency of 85.8 % at 300 mA cm −2 and 75.0 % at 500 mA cm −2 , outperforming even state-of-the-art metal/carbon-nanomaterial hybrids. Notably, it exhibits exceptional stability with negligible active-site degradation over 1000 cycles. This work establishes a transformative paradigm for non-metal electrode engineering, seamlessly integrating atomic-scale doping control with industrial-scale manufacturability, and propelling the development of sustainable, high-performance energy storage systems.

Due to the known adverse effects of bisphenol A (BPA), bisphenol F (BPF) and bisphenol S (BPS) have been widely adopted as substitutes. However, they are now detected at significant levels globally, often at levels rivaling or exceeding those of BPA, raises concerns regarding their potential ecological and health risks. Our previous work indicated that BPS exhibits lower toxicity than BPF in Chinese medaka (Oryzias sinensis). To validate this, we compared their toxicity in Japanese medaka (Oryzias latipes) using both acute and developmental exposure tests. In the 96-hr acute test, embryos exposed to concentration gradient showed a BPF median lethal concentration of 128 mg/L, while BPS exposure resulted in high survival even at the highest concentrations. Based on the observed acute toxicity, we investigated the underlying mechanism of BPF and evaluated vitamin C rescue. Vitamin C treatment effectively improved embryos survival rates. Subsequently, in the 15-day developmental exposure, 2 μg/L BPF significantly increased yolk sac edema and malformation rates. Bisphenol exposure did not show concentration-dependent malformation increases. Transcriptomic analysis revealed BPF induced more differentially expressed genes (DEGs) than BPS at the tested concentrations (0.02, 0.2, 2 μg/L): 177, 14 and 24 DEGs were identified in BPF-treated groups, respectively. In contrast, only 4, 2, and 12 DEGs were detected in the corresponding BPS-treated groups. Further analysis of the Gene Ontology and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes pathways enrichments provided further insights into the potential toxicological mechanisms of BPF. This study provides a comparative toxicity assessment of BPF and BPS, elucidates BPF's acute and developmental toxicity pathways, and offers toxicological data for risk assessment and regulation, which also provides a direction for in-depth research on toxicity mechanisms.

The presence of residual azo dyes, such as Orange II, and organic antibiotic pollutants, such as tetracycline hydrochloride, in water and soil environments is a growing global concern. Conventional water treatment technologies often show limited effectiveness in removing these contaminants. To overcome these challenges, this study proposes a method to modify triazole using ammonium chloride and presents the successful construction of a carbon nitride/indium sulphide (C 3 N 5 /In 2 S 3 ) photocatalyst with nitrogen–sulphur dual vacancies using an in situ growth approach. Systematic characterisation and evaluations of the structure and performance of the material revealed that the modified C 3 N 5 exhibited significantly enhanced crystallinity and formed an intimate 2D/2D interfacial structure with In 2 S 3 . Coupled with an S-scheme heterojunction, the nitrogen–sulphur dual vacancies jointly enhanced the capacity for light absorption, improved the separation efficiency of charge carriers, and optimised the redox potential. When exposed to a 300 W xenon lamp, the degradation rate constants of the C 3 N 5 /In 2 S 3 catalyst for Orange II and tetracycline hydrochloride were 11.51 and 16.62 times that of the singly modified C 3 N 5 and 3.91 and 1.92 times that of pure In 2 S 3 , respectively, demonstrating significant photocatalytic synergy. The C 3 N 5 /In 2 S 3 catalyst maintained good stability, with its degradation efficiency decreasing by only 7.6 % after four consecutive cycles. Moreover, it adapted to a wide pH range, ionic environments, and sunlight exposure, indicating its potential for applications in real water bodies. Provides innovative design principles and experimental evidence for developing highly efficient S-type heterojunction photocatalysts with dual vacancy regulation mechanisms, paving the way for expanded environmental remediation applications.

Nitric oxide (NO) is a crucial signaling molecule involved in various developmental processes and stress responses through post-translational protein modification and modulation of gene expression. Despite significant advances in understanding the mechanism of NO-mediated protein modifications, how NO regulates gene expression remains largely unclear. Here, we show that the energy sensor KIN10, a catalytic α-subunit of sucrose non-fermenting 1-related kinase 1 (SnRK1), plays a vital role in NO-mediated regulation of gene expression in Arabidopsis . NO-mediated S -nitrosylation at Cys-177 of KIN10 inhibits its degradation, leading to protein stabilization. A non-nitrosylatable mutation of Cys-177 to serine results in NO insensitivity and functional deficiencies. Quantitative phosphoproteomic analysis reveals that S -nitrosylation at Cys-177 of KIN10 modulates the phosphorylation of splicing factors within the spliceosome. We propose that NO regulates RNA splicing through the enhancement of KIN10 activity via S -nitrosylation, thereby establishing a molecular link between NO signaling and gene expression.

Photocatalysis is regarded as a promising strategy to address global energy and environmental challenges. Therein, S-scheme heterojunctions composed of complementary semiconductors can significantly enhance the utilization efficiency of photogenerated charge carriers while preserving the inherent strong redox capabilities of the semiconductors. However, the inadequate interfacial contact between the host and guest semiconductors hinders the enhancement of carrier separation efficiency. Herein, we developed a facile route to obtain uniform dispersion of WO 3 quantum dots (QDs) on g-C 3 N 4 . Specifically, the interfacial W-N bonding tightened the connection between WO 3 and g-C 3 N 4 , which serves as an efficient pathway for electron transfer, and significantly accelerates the directional migration of charge carriers following S-scheme. The optimized WO 3 QDs/g-C 3 N 4 S-scheme heterojunction exhibits a remarkable hydrogen evolution rate of 11,097.3 μmol·g⁻¹·h⁻¹ under simulate solar irradiation. Notably, the catalyst enables prominently overall water splitting without adding sacrificial agent, achieving simultaneous evolution of stoichiometric hydrogen and oxygen, 254.5 and 125.8 μmol·g⁻¹·h⁻¹, respectively, which are 5.2 times higher than those of WO 3 NPs/g-C 3 N 4 . Even without deposition of Pt as the co-catalyst, WO 3 QDs/g-C 3 N 4 displays noticeable gas production from water. This work will provide an idea for design and preparation of efficient photocatalyst.

Carrier recombination in polymer photocatalysts involves both undissociated exciton decay and charge recombination, which are the main obstacles limiting their photocatalytic activity. Achieving efficient charge generation and separation in a polymer system is a fundamental strategy for the potential success of solar energy conversion to hydrogen, but it remains a huge challenge. In this study, we propose an innovative intermolecular π–π stacking strategy to construct a π-delocalized all-polymer S-scheme heterojunction for photocatalytic hydrogen evolution. Two conjugated porous polymers (CPPs)—PyB, composed of benzo[1,2-b:4,5-b′]dithiophene (BDT) and pyrene units, and PhB, composed of BDT and benzene—were synthesized and integrated with CN nanosheets. The highly planar and π-extended structure of PyB facilitated strong interfacial π–π stacking with CN, forming an extended π-delocalized network that enhanced the internal electric field (IEF), improved charge separation, and boosted visible-light absorption. As a result, the optimized PyB/CN-20 composite achieved a remarkable hydrogen evolution rate (HER) of 23.84 mmol⋅h −1 ⋅g −1 under visible light, approximately 287 times higher than that of pristine CN. This work underscores the critical role of polymer planarity and π-conjugation in heterojunction efficiency, and provides new insights into the rational design of π-delocalized S-scheme systems and establishes a general strategy for developing highly efficient, metal-free photocatalysts by leveraging molecular-level structural control.

Evidence is accumulating that insect epsilon class glutathione S-transferases (GSTs) play an important role in the resistance to xenobiotics such as insecticides. A Tribolium castaneum (Herbst) (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) epsilon class GST gene, TcGSTe17 , was previously found to be significantly induced following exposure to the plant derivative eucalyptol. However, whether TcGSTe17 is involved in resistance to eucalyptol remains unclear. In this study, TcGSTe17 was cloned from the T. castaneum . Development stage expression profiling revealed that TcGSTe17 was expressed at all development stages of T. castaneum but was highly expressed in late-stage larvae. Subsequent expression profiling of tissues showed that TcGSTe17 was highly expressed in the gut of larvae and the fat body of adults, and also revealed gender-specific expression patterns. In addition, the transcripts of TcGSTe17 were significantly increased following exposure to eucalyptol, and RNAi increased the susceptibility of the beetles to eucalyptol. Collectively, these results suggest that TcGSTe17 contributes to the susceptibility of T. castaneum to eucalyptol. These findings provide new data for the prevention of pest resistance.

Passive direct liquid fuel cells are promising power generation devices with the advantages of convenient transportation, storage for liquid fuel and high power density. This paper focuses on improving the intrinsic electrocatalytic performance and durability of nitrogen-doped carbon (N-C) cathodic electrocatalysts. Then, lamellar structured Ce-S-NC heterogeneous electrocatalyst was synthesized and used as a highly durable cathode for two types of passive direct liquid fuel cells, i.e. , direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs) and direct borohydride fuel cells (DBFCs). In this work, the effect of the S/C molar ratio on the microstructure and electrocatalytic performance of the Ce-S-NC electrocatalysts was investigated, and excellent intrinsic oxygen reduction reaction activity was obtained at an S/C molar ratio of 0.15. The peak power densities of Ce-S-NC based DMFCs reached up to 12.5, 23.6 and 41.9 mW·cm −2 at 20, 40 and 60 °C, respectively. The peak power densities of 59.3, 84.6 and 132.6 mW·cm −2 were obtained in Ce-S-NC based DBFCs at 20, 40 and 60 °C, respectively. In the durability tests, both the Ce-S-NC based air-breathing DBFCs and passive DBFCs showed the stable operation than that of N-C and Ce-NC. When the current density increased from 50 to 150 mA·cm −2 , the Ce-S-NC based DBFC can be operated for 882 h, and only 34 and 91 h for that of N-C and Ce-NC. The electrochemical impedance spectroscopy tests proved Ce-S-NC based DBFC showed the faster mass transfer efficiency. The outstanding durability of Ce-S-NC is mainly attributed to the improved defect density and mass transfer.

A chemoenzymatic process combing nitrilase-catalyzed hydrolysis and continuous flow racemization was developed for highly efficient manufacturing of (S)-pregabalin. Nitrilase was immobilized on epoxy resin and employed for the biosynthesis of (S)-3-cyano-5-methylhexanoic acid ((S)-CMHA), the precursor of (S)-pregabalin. Isobutylsuccinonitrile (IBSN) (700 mM) was converted to (S)-CMHA with a conversion of 45.3% and ee of 99.5%. Meanwhile, the unreacted (R)-IBSN was continuously racemized by the γ-alumina-based solid base catalysts (ASBCs) in a packed bed reactor, and an outstanding space-time yield of 6.76 mol L–1 day–1 was achieved. Moreover, the ASBCs exhibited excellent operational stability in the racemization system and retained 85.9% catalytic activity after 20 days of continuous racemization operation. (S)-CMHA was subsequently separated and purified by a membrane separation system in 95% yield and was hydrogenated in one step to (S)-pregabalin in a yield of 88%. These obtained results exhibited the efficiency of the chemoenzymatic process and the great potential for industrialization of (S)-pregabalin.

Excellent crystallinity and uniform composition distribution of the Cu 2 ZnSn(S,Se) 4 (CZTSSe) absorber are indispensable factors for the fabrication of photovoltaic device with excellent performance. Here, a facile and effective method is developed to improve the composition uniformity of CZTSSe absorber. It is inspiring that by replacing the acetates with chlorides as the solutes in the precursor solution , the issue of the composition non-uniformity especially for the distribution of Cu and Sn, which is ascribed to the rich-carbon in the acetate-based CZTSSe absorber, is able to be avoided. Due to less organic residues and composition uniformity, the grain size and the crystallinity of absorber could be significantly enhanced, and the photovoltaic performance of chloride-based CZTSSe solar cell is improved remarkably. Furthermore, substituting CuCl 2 with CuCl as the copper source in the precursor solution is able to obtain a stable solution, and the quality of CZTSSe absorber is further improved. As a consequence, 8.48% efficient CZTSSe solar cell has been yield.
