In the present work, a fluorescent H2O2biosensor was constructed by encapsulating fluorescent probe Rhodamine B (RhmB) in the hydrophobic cavity of the cyclodextrin (β-CD) and immobilizing catalase (CAT) on the 2-NH2of chitosan (CTS) in a chitosan 6-OH immobilized β-cyclodextrin derivative (CTS-6-CD). The inclusion complex of CTS-6-CD to RhmB (CTS-6-CD-RhmB) was prepared by a solution method. Its structure and inclusion efficiency were determined by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and fluorescence spectroscopy (FL). CAT was immobilized on CTS-6-CD-RhmB to eventually form the functional membrane, CTS-6-CD-RhmB-CAT, via glutaraldehyde crosslinking, which was further characterized by FTIR and FL, and used as a H2O2biosensor. The functional membrane was used to simultaneously oxidize and detect H2O2. The detection condition was optimized as pH 8, a reaction temperature of 25 °C, and an immobilized enzyme concentration of 2 × 10−4mol/L. The fluorescence response of the biosensor exhibited a good linear relationship with the concentration of H2O2in the range of 20 mΜ–300 μM and the detection limit of 10−8mol/L.Keywords:chitosan;catalase;β-cyclodextrin;Rhodamine B;fluorescent biosensor

For large-scale hydrogen production from electrocatalysis of water, the Ni- and/or Fe-based catalysts were commonly used but limited by the ultrahigh overpotential and poor stability at high current density (>500 mA cm−2). Here, the reconstruction of M(OH)x/Fe3O4 (M = Ni, Fe) arrays has been fabricated for boosting the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). The prepared M(OH)x/Fe3O4 grewon iron foam (M(OH)x/Fe3O4/IF) catalysts exhibited low overpotentials of 214 and 311 mV for OER at the current densities of 50 and 500 mA cm−2, respectively, besides the excellent stability up to 70 h of operation at a current density of 10 mA cm−2 in 1 M KOH. The in situ Raman spectra revealed that, the reconstruction of M(OH)x/Fe3O4/IF boosted the OER activity. Theoretical calculation revealed favorable absorption of O2 at Ni site of M(OH)x/Fe3O4/IF during OER. This work highlights the reconstruction structurally definite catalysts for promoting the catalytic activity toward OER and the large-scale electrocatalysis of water.

It is crucial for energy storage devices to construct electrode materials with excellent performance. However, enhancing energy density and cycling stability for supercapacitors is a significant challenge. We successfully synthesized CoNi2S4@Ni(OH)2nanosheets on the surface of Ni foam substrate by a two-step hydrothermal approach. The obtained products exhibit a remarkable areal capacitance of 1534 F g−1at a current density of 1 A g−1. Moreover, even after 10,000 cycles, the specific capacitance remains 90% of its initial value, highlighting the exceptional long-term stability and durability. Furthermore, an asymmetric supercapacitor (ASC) device incorporating the CoNi2S4@Ni(OH)2material shows remarkable electrochemical performance. It delivers an energy density of 58.5 mW h g−1at a power density of 2700 W kg−1. The outstanding performance mainly arises from the selection of materials, the design of the structure, and the synergistic interaction between the materials. The result suggests that this material holds great potential as an energy storage material.

As a natural flavonoid inAmpelopsis grossedentata, dihydromyricetin (DHM,2R,3R-3,5,7,3′,4′,5′-hexahydroxy-2,3-dihydroflavonol) was observed to increase the viability of •OH-treated mesenchymal stem cells using a MTT [3-(4,5-dimethylthiazol-2-yl)-2,5-diphenyl] assay and flow cytometry analysis. This protective effect indicates DHM may be a beneficial agent for cell transplantation therapy. Mechanistic chemistry studies indicated that compared with myricetin, DHM was less effective at ABTS+• (2,2′-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid radical) scavenging and reducing Cu2+, and had higher •O2−and DPPH• (1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl radical) scavenging activities. Additionally, DHM could also chelate Fe2+to give an absorption maximum at 589 nm. Hence, such protective effect of DHM may arise from its antioxidant activities which are thought to occur via direct radical-scavenging and Fe2+-chelation. Direct radical-scavenging involves an electron transfer (ET) pathway. The hydrogenation of the 2,3-double bond is hypothesized to reduce the ET process by blocking the formation of a larger π-π conjugative system. The glycosidation of the 3–OH in myricitrin is assumed to sterically hinder atom transfer in the •O2−and DPPH• radical-scavenging processes. In DHM, the Fe2+-chelating effect can actually be attributed to the 5,3′,4′,5′–OH and 4–C=O groups, and the 3–OH group itself can neither scavenge radicals nor chelate metal.Keywords:dihydromyricetin;mesenchymal stem cells;antioxidant mechanisms;hydroxyl radical-induced;Fe2+-chelation;3–OH group;2,3-double bond;electron transfer (ET) pathway

Rice-like Gd(OH) 3 nanorods were successfully prepared through a facile and rapid microwave-hydrothermal synthesis method without using any surfactants or templates. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED) and energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) were used to characterize the samples. Results show that the nanorods have an average length of 400 nm and an average diameter of 50 nm. The effects of reaction parameters such as reaction temperature and time on the preparation were briefly investigated. It is found that the crucial factor for the formation of rice-like Gd(OH) 3 nanorods is reaction time. When the rice-like Gd(OH) 3 nanorods was codoped with Yb 3+ and Er 3+ , strong upconversion emissions could be observed under the excitation of 980-nm-laser, and the calculated CIE color coordinates falls within the yellow region, which may be potential candidate for optical materials.

Faster OH − transfer for efficient adsorption on catalysis is key to accelerating the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). The diffusion of OH − in electrolyte mainly involves two mechanism which is dependent on the water coordination number (CN): Grotthuss diffusion (4 CN) and vehicular diffusion (5 CN). The Grotthuss diffusion is much faster but the vehicular diffusion of OH − is predominant in the electrolyte. Herein, negatively charged kaolin, which are simply dispersed in the electrolyte, are utilized to provide surface electrostatic attraction to H 2 O and repulsion to OH − to reduce the OH − CN from 5 to 4 for rapid Grotthuss diffusion. This contributes to the accelerated OH − adsorption which facilitates the charge transfer, the formation and the deprotonation of *OOH leading to enhanced OER performance. The OH − CN recovery from 4 to 5 is proved quite slow after leaving the kaolin surface, breaking the limitation that kaolin must be on the catalyst surface. This strategy exhibits universality for various electrocatalysts with reduced overpotential by 10–246 mV at 10 mA cm −2 . We provide a clean, simple and low-cost way to promote the industrial development of alkaline water electrolysis.

A surface functional group modulation method was used to regulate the NO 2 sensing performance of the Ti 3 C 2 T x sensor. The monolayer Ti 3 C 2 T x MXene was synthesized from Ti 3 AlC 2 (MAX phase) by hydrofluoric acid (HF) etching. Ar/O 2 hybrid plasma treatment was used to regulate the ratio of hydroxyl and fluorine functional groups (OH/ F) in the Ti 3 C 2 T x surface structure. Room-temperature (RH) NO 2 sensor based on modified Ti 3 C 2 T x was fabricated by the dip coating method. The modified Ti 3 C 2 T x sensor has a higher gas response (45.31 %) to 50 ppm NO 2 compared with the untreated Ti 3 C 2 T x sensor which shows more excellent sensitivity and linearity with the NO 2 concentration of 5–50 ppm. It is due to that the presence of the hydroxyl potential on the Ti 3 C 2 T x surface well amplifies the electronic surface activity of Ti 3 C 2 T x . Concurrently, the modified electronic structure augments the adsorption propensity of Ti 3 C 2 T x for O 2 (2.26 |eV|) and NO 2 (3.24 |eV|), thereby improving the NO 2 sensing capability of the Ti 3 C 2 T x sensor. These results demonstrate that Ti 3 C 2 T x with a high ratio of OH/ F functional groups has great potential in developing high-performance room temperature NO 2 sensors.

Thermochemical energy storage technology based on the Ca(OH)₂/CaO dehydration-hydration reaction is considered as a promising strategy for addressing the transient storage of renewable energy due to high thermal storage density, long cycle characteristics, and safety. However, this technology suffers from drawbacks like agglomeration and sintering at high temperatures, along with poor cycling stability. In this study, the "dynamic" doping of Ca(OH)₂ with C₃N₄ was introduced to optimize the microstructure of particles, which enhanced the thermal performance, elevated conversion rate, and improved cycling stability, without reducing thermal storage density. In-depth characterizations revealed that C₃N₄ transformed Ca(OH)₂ from a flake-like structure to uniform spherical particles, approximately 10 μm in size. In particular, when the doping amount reached 30 wt%, the thermal storage density increased by 11.10% in contrast to Pure Ca(OH)₂, the peak reaction temperature decreased by 13.98°C, and the conversion rate improved to 91.22%. Simultaneously, the material exhibited excellent anti-caking properties, maintaining a thermal storage density of 776.46 J/g after 20 cycles, representing a 27% augmentation compared to the unmodified sample. The microscale effect of the material was retained. In summary, this outcome showcases outstanding comprehensive properties, taking thermochemical energy storage materials further into practical scenarios.

Designing catalysts that simultaneously optimize both hydrogen and oxygen evolution reaction (HER and OER) emerges as a critical materials challenge. Co(OH)₂ is recognized as an effective OER electrocatalyst, but the low HER activity limits its application in overall water splitting. In this work, we synthesized sulfur (S) and selenium (Se) doped Co(OH) 2 catalysts with significantly enhanced HER activity using an electrochemical deposition method. The S-Co(OH) 2 and Se-Co(OH) 2 catalysts own low HER overpotentials of 48 mV and 59 mV at 10 mA cm −2 . And they require 1.56 V and 1.64 V at the same current density for water splitting, the sustain stable performance for > 100 h at current densities (100 mA cm −2 ) show their practical durability. Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations and experimental results reveal that non-metal doping induces electronic reconfiguration of Co and optimizes the ΔG H* value for intermediate formation, thus accelerating hydrogen generation and enhancing the intrinsic HER activity. This work presents an effective strategy for incorporating non-metal elements into transition metal-based catalysts, and provides insight to boost HER intrinsic activity and achieve bifunctional catalytic performance for water splitting.

The electrochemical nitrate reduction reaction (eNO 3 RR) is widely recognized as a promising strategy for sustainable ammonia production and supporting the nitrogen cycle. However, its advancement is impeded by complex behavior of reaction intermediates and the inevitable reconstruction of precatalysts. To address these challenges, the generation and utilization of active hydrogen (*H) are strategically managed by tailoring the RuO 2 /Co 3 O 4 precatalyst and optimizing the electrolyte composition (OH − and NO 3 − concentration), thereby selectively enhancing ammonia formation. Consequently, the in situ reconstructed RuO 2 /Co(OH) 2 catalyst achieves an impressive ammonia yield of 35.9 ± 0.9 mg h −1 cm −2 and a Faradaic efficiency (FE) of 98.1 ± 2.6% at −0.3 V versus RHE. Furthermore, the catalyst shows significant potential for applications in nitrate-rich wastewater treatment and rechargeable Zn-NO 3 − batteries, maintaining stable operation for over 260 hours at 1 mA cm −2 with only a 6 mV increase in the potential window. Mechanistic studies reveal that electron-rich RuO 2 facilitates *H generation through water dissociation, which subsequently migrates to Co(OH) 2 to hydrogenate nitrogenous intermediates, selectively producing ammonia. This study highlights the importance of designing efficient catalytic systems that address both precatalyst reconstruction and the complexities of reactant and intermediate conversion in electrolytes, which are essential for managing the intricate electron and proton transfer processes involved in eNO 3 RR.

Electrochemical water splitting is a very prospective technique to obtain the green hydrogen fuel . The oxygen evolution reaction becomes a limitation owing to the multiple electron transfer process. Thereby, a lot of attention is paid on the development of noble-metal free electrocatalysts for boosting the water oxidation process . The heterostructure of Mn 3 O 4 nanoparticles on Cu(OH) 2 nanowire arrays is fabricated, which exhibits an electrocatalytic activity close to RuO 2 . Compared with the single (hydro)oxides, the largely improved performance of the heterostructure towards water oxidation can be attributed to the enhanced charge transfer by the electronic interaction across the interface and the increased active sites for the rational combination of different active species .
