The stability of black phosphorene (BP) and its preparation and modification for developing and applying devices have become a hot topic in the interdisciplinary field. We propose ultrasound-electrochemistry co-assisted liquid-phase exfoliation as an eco-friendly one-step method to prepare gold–silver bimetallic nanoparticles (Au−AgNPs)-decorated BP nanozyme for smartphone-based portable sensing of 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) in different water sources. The structure, morphology, composition, and properties of Au−AgNPs−BP nanozyme are characterized by multiple instrumental analyses. Bimetallic salts are induced to efficiently occupy oxidative sites of BP to form highly stable Au−AgNPs−BP nanozyme and guarantee the integrity of the lamellar BP. The electrochemistry shortens the exfoliation time of the BP nanosheet and contributes to the loading efficiency of bimetallic nanoparticles on the BP nanosheet. Au−AgNPs−BP-modified screen-printed carbon electrode coupled with palm-sized smartphone-controlled wireless electrochemical analyzer as a portable wireless intelligent sensing platform was applied to the determination of 4-NP in a linear range of 0.6−10 μM with a limit of detection of 63 nM. It enables on-site determination of 4-NP content in lake water, river water, and irrigation ditch water. This work will provide a reference for an eco-friendly one-step preparation of bimetallic nanoparticle-decorated graphene-like materials as nanozymes and their smartphone-based portable sensing application outdoors.

Batch production of single-crystal two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides is one prerequisite for the fabrication of next-generation integrated circuits. Contemporary strategies for the wafer-scale high-quality crystallinity of 2D materials centre on merging unidirectionally aligned, differently sized domains. However, an imperfectly merged area with a translational lattice brings about a high defect density and low device uniformity, which restricts the application of the 2D materials. Here we establish a liquid-to-solid crystallization in 2D space that can rapidly grow a centimetre-scale single-crystal MoS 2 domain with no grain boundaries. The large MoS 2 single crystal obtained shows superb uniformity and high quality with an ultra-low defect density. A statistical analysis of field effect transistors fabricated from the MoS 2 reveals a high device yield and minimal variation in mobility, positioning this FET as an advanced standard monolayer MoS 2 device. This 2D Czochralski method has implications for fabricating high-quality and scalable 2D semiconductor materials and devices.

Constructing S-scheme heterojunctions proves proficient in achieving the spatial separation of potent photogenerated charge carriers for their participation in photoreactions. Nonetheless, the restricted contact areas between two phases within S-scheme heterostructures lead to inefficient interfacial charge transport, resulting in low photocatalytic efficiency from a kinetic perspective. Here, In 2 O 3 /Nb 2 O 5 S-scheme heterojunctions are fabricated through a straightforward one-step electrospinning technique, enabling intimate contact between the two phases and thereby fostering ultrafast interfacial electron transfer (<10 ps), as analyzed via femtosecond transient absorption spectroscopy. As a result, powerful photo-electrons and holes accumulate in the Nb 2 O 5 conduction band and In 2 O 3 valence band, respectively, exhibiting extended long lifetimes and facilitating their involvement in subsequent photoreactions. Combined with the efficient chemisorption and activation of stable CO 2 on the Nb 2 O 5 , the resulting In 2 O 3 /Nb 2 O 5 hybrid nanofibers demonstrate improved photocatalytic performance for CO 2 conversion.

Recently, colloidal quantum dots (QDs) with high luminescent efficiency and tunable colors have become ideal materials for next-generation display devices. Direct photolithography is a powerful tool for patterning QD devices, but it faces the serious issue of degradation in the photophysical properties of the patterned QDs. Here, we use relatively rigid cyclopentane as a bridging group to design the crosslinker CPTA, achieving high-resolution direct photolithography of QDs with nearly nondestructive under ambient conditions. The key to the crosslinker design is the introduction of a rigid bridging group that elevates the LUMO level, providing a stronger energy barrier to prevent QD electrons from being trapped or undergoing non-radiative recombination, thus preserving their PL and EL properties. The efficient and high-resolution RGB line and dot arrays were fabricated with pixel sizes down to 1 μm and a resolution of up to 6350 PPI. The patterned RGB QD films, especially red QDs, maintained their optical and optoelectronic properties, with patterned red QLEDs achieving peak external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 21% and a maximum luminance ( L max ) of ~180,000 cd m⁻², matching pristine devices. These results highlight the importance of photo-crosslinker design for nondestructive QDs patterning, paving the way for advanced display applications in patterned QLED technology.

Given the significance of dynamic taste perception, this study focused on sucrose and citric acid as research subjects to investigate quantitative principles governing the dynamic interactive responses between sweet and sour taste perception. Time-intensity experiments (30 assessors) revealed a logarithmic correlation between I max , AUC, and concentration, indicating that the sweetness of 2-10% sucrose and sourness of 0.006-0.024% citric acid exhibited mutual inhibition. Temporal dominance of sensations study (30 assessors) reveals that during the initial stage, the predominant attributes are sweetness and sourness, while in the later stage, salivation emerged as the dominant attribute across varying ratios of sweet-dominant, sour-dominant, and balanced sweet-sour sensations. At various sweet-to-sour ratios, dynamic liking (30 assessors) evaluation determined the optimal acceptance ratio of sweet-to-sour and elucidated the influential attributes of perceived preference along with their operational principles. The aforementioned research findings on the dynamic sweet-sour taste interaction patterns hold substantial implications for informing practical applications in the food industry.

Background Discovering new biomarkers for Alzheimer’s disease (AD) are significant for early diagnosis and monitoring disease’s progression. Blood-based lipid biomarkers, particularly from red cell membranes, offer a non-invasive alternative, providing insights into AD progression and potential therapeutic targets.Methods This study innovatively incorporates red cell membrane (RCM) lipids, which reflect chronic physiological alterations and are linked to AD pathogenesis. A comprehensive lipid detection platform was employed to analyze lipid profiles from 156 individuals, including normal subjects, those with amnestic mild cognitive impairment, and AD patients. Differential lipids were identified and validated to be AD-associated by correlation analysis and big data analysis. Multi-dimensional criteria were applied to select potential lipid biomarkers.Results PLS-DA revealed distinct lipidomic profiles between groups, with RCM samples showing superior separation. 138 differentially expressed lipids were identified and enriched in AD-related pathways, many uniquely associated with the RCM. Six lipids were selected as a potential biomarker panel for AD based on multi-dimensional criteria.Conclusion sRCM shows broader lipidomic relevance and stronger biomarker potential compared to plasma. Integrating RCM lipids with plasma analysis enhances AD diagnostics and highlights the potential of RCM as an underexplored biomarker resource.

A visual aptasensor based on the combination of graphitic carbon nitride loaded with platinum nanoparticles (PtNPs/g-C 3 N 4 ) and deoxyribonuclease I (DNase I) was developed for detecting acetamiprid. The prepared PtNPs/g-C 3 N 4 exhibited excellent peroxidase (POD)-like activity, demonstrating the capacity to oxidize the colourless o-phenylenediamine (OPD) to produce the coloured product diaminophenazine (DAP) in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ). The DNA aptamer of acetamiprid can adsorb onto the surface of PtNPs/g-C 3 N 4 , thereby inhibiting its POD activity. The binding of acetamiprid to its aptamer results in the aptamer desorbing from the surface of PtNPs/g-C 3 N 4 and subsequent digestion by DNase I. Ascribed to the synergistic effect of these factors, the aptasensor can achieve the rapid on-site detection of acetamiprid based on the acetamiprid-induced the colour change of the solution just with the smartphone. Furthermore, due to the remarkable fluorescence signal of DAP at 570 nm, the aptasensor under fluorescence mode enables highly sensitive and quantitative detection of acetamiprid with a linear range of 1 ng/mL to 4 µg/mL and a detection limit as low as 0.31 ng/mL. The aptasensor has successfully realized the detection of acetamiprid in river water and cucumber samples, offering a novel perspective for the rapid assessment of environmental pollution and food safety risks associated with acetamiprid residues.

Organic room temperature phosphorescence (RTP) has significant potential in various applications of information storage, anti-counterfeiting, and bio-imaging. However, achieving robust organic RTP emission of the single-component system is challenging to overcome the restriction of the crystalline state or other rigid environments with cautious treatment. Herein, we report a single-component system with robust persistent RTP emission in various aggregated forms, such as crystal, fine powder, and even amorphous states. Our experimental data reveal that the vigorous RTP emissions rely on their tight dimers based on strong and large-overlap π - π interactions between polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) groups. The dimer structure can offer not only excitons in low energy levels for visible-light excited red long-lived RTP but also suppression of the nonradiative decays even in an amorphous state for good resistance of RTP to heat (up to 70 °C) or water. Furthermore, we demonstrate the water-dispersible nanoparticle with persistent RTP over 600 nm and a lifetime of 0.22 s for visible-light excited cellular and in-vivo imaging, prepared through the common microemulsion approach without overcaution for nanocrystal formation.

Nanothermite has gained significant attention for its exceptional energy release rate and reactivity, making it a promising material for energetic applications. However, nanoparticle agglomeration significantly hinders its energy release efficiency. To overcome this challenge, we developed an innovative bottom-up strategy and a straightforward preparation method to construct a hierarchical Al/CuO/V 2 C nanocomposite. This is achieved through the ordered self-assembly of Al and CuO nanoparticles in an ethanol suspension, using V 2 C MXene as a template. Our findings show that the Al/CuO/V 2 C nanocomposite exhibits distinct morphologies based on V 2 C concentration: nanosheets at lower concentrations and microspheres at higher concentrations. CuO and Al nanoparticles form the first and second layers outside the V 2 C, respectively, due to the interplay between electrostatic forces and covalent Cu-O-V bonds. This unique structure, along with high reactivity of V 2 C, enables complete Al oxidation, achieving a heat release of 3156.2 J g -1 with a 10 wt% V 2 C addition—seven times greater than the Al/CuO control group. The concentration-dependent structure allows for tunable energetic performance, from a rapid 3-ms deflagration to a prolonged 16-ms combustion. Reduced gas release enhances safety, paving the way for applications in microinitiators and advancing nanothermite technology.

This study introduced a novel vectorized Biopharmaceutics Classification System (BCS) model designed to evaluate the biopharmaceutical properties of active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs) and their variations under different influencing factors. The model was validated using water-soluble supramolecular p -Sulfonatocalix[n]arenes (SCnA, n = 6, 8), promising pharmaceutical adjuvants, to enhance the solubility and bioavailability of a series of APIs in vitro . The binding interactions of SCnA with 22 alkaloids were assessed for their impact on solubility and permeability using the classical shake-flask method and the parallel artificial membrane permeability assay (PAMPA). To quantify the effects, the change in directional cosine (θ) for each API was calculated by measuring the ratio of the differences in x- and y-coordinates before and after binding. The linear distance and modulus length (r) changes for each API were determined using the Pythagorean theorem, enabling a quantitative assessment of the modifications in solubility and permeability. The potential changes in oral bioavailability pre- and post-binding were visualized using heat maps based on θ and r, highlighting significant improvements in the solubility of compounds such as allicin, tetrandrine, lycorisine, and others. These changes corresponded with shifts in BCS classification, indicating a positive relationship between SCnA concentration, cavity size, and enhanced solubility. The study also evaluated the influence of pH, and concentrations of host and guest, to assess the tolerance of SCnA for further pharmaceutical applications. Based on prior safety assessments, SCnA ( n = 6, 8) demonstrated significant potential as solubilizing excipients. The vectorized BCS model enabled precise, quantitative analysis of biopharmaceutical property variations without added experimental complexity, offering a tool for high-throughput screening of excipients in pharmaceutical formulation and processing.

G2/M checkpoint and P53 pathway are essential in regulating the cell cycle and proliferation of cells, which is related to the progress of tumors. Here, we carried out an integrative analysis of the prognostic genes of these pathways in gastric cancer (GC) and thus developed a molecular subtype. We identified prognostic differential expression genes (PDEGs) of G2/M checkpoint and P53 pathways between normal and tumor tissue in TCGA-STAD and developed a molecular subtype based on PDEGs. Meanwhile, the clinical significance of the molecular subtype was further explored. In addition, a comprehensive model and nomogram based on PDEGs score were constructed and validated by GSE26901 and GSE13861. Gastric cancer cell lines and patients’ specimens were used to validate the expression of selected genes.19 PDEGs were identified from these pathways in TCGA-STAD. Ulteriorly, a PDEGs score model consisting of 4 genes (PVT1, F2R, INCENP, IRAK1) was generated to classify patients into high- and low- PDEGs score subgroups. Patients in low PDEGs score groups had a better prognosis and a higher tumor mutational burden and may be more sensitive to chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Notably, the combination of PDEGs score and clinical features showed a pleasing survival prediction ability. In the GSE13861 cohort, the PDEGs score and its derivative model were confirmed with significant predictive effects in overall survival. Furthermore, these genes were significantly upregulated in both GC cell lines and tumor tissues and F2R was the hub gene resulting in poor survival. This paper has provided a distinct insight for tumor classification predicting prognosis more accurately and having the potential to instruct the use of chemotherapy and immunotherapy for patients with GC.

Extracting uranium from water is of great significance for environmental protection and nuclear energy development. Herein, the Amidoximation Polyethylenimine—Monomer (PEI-MO-AO) with a porous block was synthesized. The adsorbent was formed by crosslinking polyethyleneimine and the polymers of terephthalaldehyde and diaminomaleonitrile and the following amidoximation enhanced the adsorption performance. Accordingly, the porous structure endows the PEI-MO-AO a good hydrophilicity. The adsorption results exhibited that the maximum capacity reached 218 mg·g −1 at a pH of 6 and can adsorb uranium over a larger pH range. Besides, it maintained a distribution coefficient of 8760 mL·g −1 for uranium despite the high-intensity interference of other ions. After six consecutive adsorption cycles, the removal rate of uranium ions sustained at 81.6%, and the uranium adsorption capacity maintained a relatively elevated value of 189.31 mg·g −1 . The PEI-MO-AO porous network polymeric material exhibited significant potential as an adsorbent, offering novel insights into the domain of uranium extraction and removal.
