A new type of SiCf/TiC-Ti3SiC2composite was prepared by the Spark Plasma Sintering (SPS) method in this work. The phase transformation and interface cracking of this composite under ion irradiation (single Xe, Xe + He, and Xe + He + H ions) and subsequent annealing were analyzed using transmission electron microscopy (TEM), mainly focusing on the interface regions. Xe ion irradiation resulted in the formation of high-density stacking faults in the TiC coatings and the complete amorphization of SiC fibers. The implanted H ions exacerbated interface coarsening. After annealing at 900 °C for 2 h, the interface in the Xe + He + H ion-irradiated samples was seriously damaged, resulting in the formation of large bubbles and cracks. This damage occurred because the H atoms reduced the surface free energy, thereby promoting the nucleation and growth of bubbles. Due to the absorption effect of the SiCf/TiC interface on defects, the SiC fiber areas near the interface recovered back to the initial nano-polycrystalline structure after annealing.

A series of nitrogen-rich heterocyclic 1H,1′H-5,5′-bistetrazole-1,1′-diolate salts, namely, 1,2,4-triazolium (2), 3-amino-1,2,4-triazolium (3), 4-amino-1,2,4-triazolium (4), 3,5-diamino-1,2,4-triazolium (5), 2-methylimidazolium (6), imidazolium (7), pyrazolium (8), 3-amino-5-hydroxypyrazolium (9), dicyandiamidine (10), and 2,4-diamino-6-methyl-1,3,5-triazin (11), was synthesized with cations. These energetic salts were fully characterized through FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, and elemental analysis. The structures of 2, 3·7H2O, 6·2H2O, 8, and 10·4H2O were further confirmed through single crystal X-ray diffraction. Their thermal stabilities were investigated through differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results indicated that all of the salts possess excellent thermal stabilities with decomposition temperatures ranging from 225.7 °C to 314.0 °C. On the basis of the Kamlet–Jacobs formula, we carefully calculated their detonation velocities and detonation pressures. All of the salts, except 11, exhibit promising detonation performances with a detonation pressure of 20.23–28.69 GPa and a detonation velocity of 7050–8218 m s−1. These values are much higher than those of TNT. The impact sensitivities of the compounds were determined via a Fall hammer test. All of the compounds show excellent impact sensitivities of >50 J, and this finding is higher than that of TATB (50 J). Therefore, these ionic salts with excellent energetic properties could be applied as new energetic materials.

A kind of magnetic N-containing carbon material was synthesized by a simple method using sustainable N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (NAG) and iron nitrate as the raw materials. In C–H oxidation reactions such as the epoxidation of stilbene and styrene, and the oxidation of ethylbenzene, the carbon catalyst exhibited excellent catalytic activity and selectivity for the target products. The superparamagnetic properties at room temperature facilitated catalyst recycling and reusability when it was used as a catalyst. The relationship between the catalytic results and the N 1s XPS analysis indicated that the graphitic N species located in the carbon skeleton was the key accelerating factor which promoted the catalytic C–H oxidation. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations further indicated that the iron species were not an essential factor but they acted as promoters for the catalytic performance of the catalyst. This study will expand the application of biomass-based heteroatom-containing compounds.

CH 3 SH is a potential hazard to both chemical production and human health, so controlling its emissions is an urgent priority. In this work, a series of transition metal-loaded H-ZSM-5 adsorbents (Si/Al = 25) (Cu, Fe, Co, Ni, Mn, and Zn) were synthesized through the wet impregnation method and tested for CH 3 SH physicochemical adsorption at 60 °C. It was shown that the Cu-modified H-ZSM-5 adsorbent was much more active for CH 3 SH removal due to its abundant strong acid sites than other transition metal-modified H-ZSM-5 adsorbents. The detailed physicochemical properties of various modified H-ZSM-5 adsorbents were characterized by SEM, XRD, N 2 physisorption, XPS, H 2 -TPR, and NH 3 -TPD. The effects of metal loading mass ratio, calcination temperature, and acid or alkali modification on the performance of the adsorbent were also investigated, and finally 20% Cu/ZSM-5 was found to have the best adsorption capacity after calcined at 350 °C. Additionally, the Cu/ZSM-5 adsorbent modified by sodium bicarbonate could expose more active components, which improved the adsorbent’s stability. However, the consumption and reduction of the active component Cu 2+ and the accumulation of sulfate during the adsorption process are the main reasons for the deactivation of the adsorbent. In addition, the simultaneous purging of N 2 + O 2 can effectively restore the adsorption capacity of the deactivated adsorbent and can be used as a potential strategy to regenerate the adsorbent.

Photocatalytic selective oxidation of aromatic hydrocarbons plays an important role in the production of value-added chemicals. A key step in this process is the activation of C(sp 3 )-H bond by photogenerated holes. However, the inadequate hole generation and lack of surface adsorption-activation sites severely hinders the improvement in photocatalytic C-H bond oxidation. In particular, the random charge migration to the surface impedes the effective capture of holes by surface active sites to dissociate the C(sp 3 )-H bond. Here, we design and fabricate a Co 3 O 4 /Cs 3 Sb 2 Br 9 p-n heterojunction that effectively addresses these challenges. The p-n heterojunction forms strong built-in electric fields (BEF) facilitating spatial charge separation. Holes are accumulated on Co 3 O 4 , while electrons are accumulated on Cs 3 Sb 2 Br 9 , thereby offering abundant active holes and electrons. Moreover, Co 3 O 4 shows stronger adsorption and activation capacity for the C(sp³)-H bond, enabling the C(sp 3 )-H bond dissociation with low reaction energy barrier. Consequently, the holes are directionally extracted from photoactive Cs 3 Sb 2 Br 9 to catalytically active Co 3 O 4 under visible light irradiation, thereby accelerating the toluene oxidation. The optimized 5 % Co 3 O 4 /Cs 3 Sb 2 Br 9 exhibits a benzyl aldehyde (BAD) evolution rate of 5044 μmol g −1 h −1 and a benzyl alcohol (BA) production rate of 1820 μmol g −1 h −1 , which are 12 and 17 times higher than that of blank Cs 3 Sb 2 Br 9 , respectively.

Golgi protein 73 (GP73) is a novel biomarker for the detection of hepatocellular carcinoma. We prepare a colorimetric aptasensor for GP73 detection based on the catalytic performance of the H-rGO-Mn3O4 nanozyme. The H-rGO-Mn3O4 nanozyme serves
as a peroxidase mimetic which can enhance the reaction with the substrate (3, 3,’ 5, 5′-tetramethylbenzidine, TMB) and H2O2. The peroxidase-like activity of H-rGO-Mn3O4 features a 1.78-fold higher binding affinity value (Km
)
for TMB compared with that of horseradish peroxidase. The H-rGO-Mn3O4 nanozyme not only exhibits admirable peroxidase-like activities due to the synergistic effect of Mn3O4 NPs, rGO and hemin, but also has a large specific surface area to endow the
GP73 aptamer with specific recognition capabilities. A sandwich colorimetric aptasensor is formed to realize the visual detection of GP73 through catalyzing the H2O2-mediated oxidation peroxidase substrate TMB to oxidized TMB accompanied by a color change from colorless
to blue. Under optimal conditions, the logarithm of the GP73 concentration (0.05–50.0 ng/mL) shows a good linear relationship with the absorbance. The calibration equation is Y =−0.0383 lgC+0.4835, with R2 of 0.9964, and the lowest limit of detection is 36.94
pg/mL. Additionally, the content of GP73 in human serum samples is directly detected, and the relative standard deviation is 0.49–4.91%. Compared with the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay method, the relative error is 0.23–3.61%. All in all, colorimetric aptasensor is demonstrated
to exhibit excellent specificity, stability, and reproducibility.

The poor pozzolanic activity and high alkalinity of municipal solid waste incineration fly ashes (MSWI-FA) would deteriorate the stability of the MgO-SiO 2 -H 2 O (M−S−H) binder system, further inhibiting the treatment capacity of cement to wastes. In this study, sulfhydryl-functionalized graphene oxide nanoparticles (SFG) were synthesized and incorporated into the MSWI-FA-blended M−S−H (MSH-MSWI-FA) system to strengthen the solidification/stabilization (S/S) of both heavy metals (HMs) and chloride salts in the matrix and mechanical stability of cement. The linear increases in nanomaterials (from 0.5 % to 2.5 %) and MSH (from 40 % to 80 %) both decreased the concentrations of HMs and Cl anions leached from the solidified cubes in the MSH-MSWI-FA cementation. The least leaching concentration of Zn, Cu, Pb, Cd, Cr, and Cl were 0.0046 mg/L, 0.0032 mg/L, 0.014 mg/L, 0.00068 mg/L, 0.030 mg/L, and 0.36 g/L from the SFG-MSH-MSWI-FA cemented samples, respectively. The incorporation of graphene oxide nanoparticles (NGO) and SFG elevated the residual moieties of HMs, enhanced the mechanical strength and acid resistance, and improved the microstructural properties of MSH-MSWI-FA cementation. SFG played a more dominant role in the enhancement than NGO. Sulfhydryl-functionalization for nanomaterials intensifies the improvement process. The minerals including M−S−H, CaO-SiO 2 -H 2 O (C-S-H), and Phase-5 were formed in the MSH-MSWI-FA cement. Silica fume (SF), lightly burnt magnesia (CC-MgO), and MSWI-FA reacted with each other in a ternary system, which induced the self-alkali-activated cementation of C-S-H, M−S−H, and magnesium oxychloride (MOC) cement.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is an extremely complex disease, characterized by several pathological features including oxidative stress and amyloid-β (Aβ) aggregation. Blockage of Aβ-induced injury has emerged as a potential therapeutic approach for AD. Our previous efforts resulted in the discovery of Monascus pigment rubropunctatin derivative FZU-H with potential neuroprotective effects. This novel lead compound significantly diminishes toxicity induced by Aβ(1-42) in Neuro-2A cells. Our further mechanism investigation revealed that FZU-H inhibited Aβ(1-42)-induced caspase-3 protein activation and the loss of mitochondrial membrane potential. In addition, treatment of FZU-H was proven to attenuate Aβ(1-42)-induced cell redox imbalance and Tau hyperphosphorylation which caused by okadaic acid in Neuro-2A cells. These results indicated that FZU-H shows promising neuroprotective effects for AD.

Gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs) have emerged as a highly promising alternative to conventional liquid electrolytes for stable lithium-metal batteries (LIBs). However, their inherent poor mechanical properties and limited interfacial compatibility with lithium metal usually lead to unexpected growth of lithium dendrites , hindering commercial viability. Herein, an asymmetric polymer electrolyte with h-BN (HGPE) as protective layer was fabricated via a facile one-step coating strategy. Compared to pure GPE, the asymmetric polymer electrolytes exhibit significantly enhanced mechanical strength from 4.4 MPa to 7.4 MPa, effectively suppressing lithium dendrite growth. Furthermore, the HGPE improves interfacial compatibility with the anodes by preventing direct contact between GPE and lithium metals. The addition of h-BN also enhances the lithium-ion transfer number (t Li+ ), reaching 0.87 compared to 0.53 for pure GPE, attributed to the hindrance of anion movement by the protective layer. Consequently, the Li symmetric battery assembled with HGPE demonstrate exceptional long-term stability, maintaining performance over 1600 h at 0.1 mA cm −2 . Furthermore, the assembled Li|LiFePO 4 battery can deliver a high-capacity retention rate of 93.8 % after 500 cycles at room temperature, showcasing the promising potential of asymmetric polymer electrolytes for high-performance LMBs.

Low selenium levels are closely associated with reduced cognitive performance and lipid dysregulation, yet the mechanism of action remains unclear. The physiological function of selenium is primarily mediated by selenoproteins. Selenoprotein H (SELENOH), as one of the selenium-containing proteins, has an unelucidated role in regulating cognitive status and lipid metabolism. In this study, we established a Selenoh gene knockout (HKO) mouse model to investigate whether Selenoh mediates the impact of selenium on cognitive function. We found that HKO mice showed a significant decline in cognition compared with the wild-type (HWT) littermates, and were not affected by deficient or excessive selenium, while no differences in anxiety and depression behavior were observed. HKO mice showed reduced myelin basic protein expression in hippocampal oligodendrocytes, with decreased glycolipid levels and increased phospholipid and sphingolipid levels in the hippocampus. Furthermore, the high-fat diet (HFD) exerted no effect on cognition and limited impact on the gene profile in the hippocampus of HKO mice. Compared with those of HWT mice, the myelination pathways in the hippocampus of HKO mice were downregulated as revealed by RNA-seq, which was further confirmed by the reduced expression levels of myelin-related proteins. Finally, HKO increased the expression of hippocampal fatty acid transporter (FATP) 4, and HFD increased the FATP4 expression in HWT mice but not in HKO mice. In summary, our study demonstrated that HKO induced cognitive decline by impairing myelination in oligodendrocytes with disrupted hippocampal lipid metabolism, which provided a novel viewpoint on the selenoprotein-mediated neurodegenerative diseases of selenium.

A halogen-free flame retardant of 9,10-dihydro-9-oxa-10-phosphaphenanthrene-10-oxide-containing H-benzimidazole (DHBI) was synthesized and subsequently used as co-curing agent of 4,4′-diamino-diphenylmethane for diglycidyl ether of bisphenol-A. The structure of DHBI was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, proton, carbon 13 and phosphorus-31 nuclear magnetic resonance, and mass spectroscopy. A series of cured epoxy resins (EPs) were prepared and their flame retardancy, thermal stability, flexibility, and dielectric properties were investigated. The resulting cured EP (EP-10) with 7.45 wt% of DHBI successfully achieved UL 94 V-0 rate with limited oxygen index of 35.6% and without dropping phenomenon. Compared with the cured pristine EP (EP-00), the glass transition temperature of EP-10 was increased by 6.9°C, accompanied with an enhancement of flexible strength by 13.1 MPa and a decrement of dielectric constant by 0.3 at the testing frequency of 1 MHz.

Background Benzofuran and its derivatives contain central pharmacophores and are important structures in medicinal chemistry. Chemical synthesis of benzofuran rings often requires expensive catalysts and stringent operational conditions. Biosynthesis is recognized as a promising way to save energy and produce valuable compounds. Dioxin biodegradation pathways can form several benzofuran derivatives, and these pathways may be a better choice for further synthesis of important biological compounds. 2-Hydroxy-4-(3′-oxo-3′ H -benzofuran-2′-yliden)but-2-enoic acid (HOBB), a benzofuran derivative, can be biosynthesized from dibenzofuran (DBF) through co-metabolic degradation in a lateral dioxygenation pathway. Results Efficient biosynthesis of HOBB was observed using whole cells of Pseudomonas putida strain B6-2. After cultivation in LB medium containing biphenyl, the cells were suspended to an OD 600 of 5 to conduct biosynthesis in the presence of 0.5-mM DBF at pH 7 for 8 h. The bacterial cells were used twice to degrade approximately 0.70-mM DBF, and in batch process, accumulated about 0.29-mM HOBB. HOBB could be easily purified from the reaction with ethyl acetate using the neutral-acid extraction method, and 13.58 ± 0.31 mg of HOBB was obtained from 22.49 ± 0.74-mg DBF with an overall production yield of 60.4% (w/w). The product HOBB, which is a yellow powder, could be detected and identified by LC–MS, GC–MS, and NMR. Conclusions In this study, a new biological route was developed to produce HOBB from DBF using whole cells of P. putida B6-2 (DSM 28064). The biosynthesis of HOBB may contribute to studies of the DBF lateral pathway and provide a new green route for synthesizing benzofuran derivatives with pharmacological activities.
