The research on the heterogeneous catalytic synthesis of tetrazoles has attracted great attention. In this paper, a tungsten atom-containing AlPO-5 microporous molecular sieve (termed as WAlPO-5) was designed and synthesized by the incorporation of tungsten atoms into the AlPO-5 skeleton with triethylamine as a structure template from pseudoboehmite, H3PO4 and tungstophosphoric acid. The incorporation of tungsten atoms into the AlPO-5 skeleton has been demonstrated by systematic characterizations. WAlPO-5 can be used as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the synthesis of 5-substituted 1H-tetrazoles by [3+2] cycloaddition from nitriles and sodium azide. As a novel heterogeneous catalyst, WAlPO-5 exhibits a high catalytic activity, a superior cycling stability and an excellent substrate applicability. The significant advantages of WAlPO-5, such as the simple procedure and the mild reaction conditions and as an alternative to those corrosive, hazardous and polluting homogeneous catalysts, warrant its potential application in industrial processes.

To quantify the optimum requirement of dietary linolenic acid (18:3n-3, LNA) for Nile tilapia ( Oreochromis niloticus ), purified ethyl linolenate was added to the basal diet to provide the dietary LNA level of 0.00, 0.10, 0.32, 0.63, 0.98, 1.56 and 2.04% of dry weight, respectively. All diets contained similar amounts of 18:2n-6 (0.61% of dry weight) and 18:1n-9 from purified ethyl linoleate and oleate , respectively. Basal diet without LNA was considered as a control. After 2-week acclimation with a lipid-free diet, 4 replicate groups of 120 juvenile fish with initial body weight of 2.10 g were fed with experimental diets in a recirculated fresh water rearing system for 10 weeks. Feeding rate was 10% of body weight in the first 2 weeks, 8% in the following 4 weeks, and then gradually reduced to 5% in the next 4 weeks. Fish were fed three times daily at 8:30, 12:00 and 17:00. The results showed that fish fed the diet with 0.63% of LNA had significantly higher weight gain (WG) and specific growth rate (SGR) than fish fed the control diet ( P < 0.05). Feed efficiency (FE) and protein deposition (PD) in fish fed diets with 0.63, 0.98, 1.56 and 2.04% of LNA were significantly higher than those of the control group ( P < 0.05). Fish muscle fatty acid composition reflected dietary fatty acids. Increasing dietary LNA levels resulted in increased contents of LNA and 22:6n-3, but decreased contents of 20:4n-6 and 20:5n-3. When WG and FE were subjected to broken-line regression analysis, the breakpoint was achieved at dietary LNA levels of 0.45 and 0.64% of dry weight, respectively. Based on those results, the recommended optimum requirement of dietary LNA for juvenile tilapia is 0.45–0.64% of dry weight.

A new hydrophilic boronate affinity monolithic capillary was synthesized for the selective capture of cis-diol biomolecules including glycoproteins and nucleosides, using (3-acrylamidophenyl)boronic acid (APBA) and N,N-methylenebisacrylamide (MBAA) as the functional monomer and cross-linker, respectively. A comparison with other compositionally similar monolithic capillaries was carried out in terms of reversed-phase retention, selectivity, binding capacity and binding pH. The poly(APBA-co-MBAA) monolithic capillary exhibited notably different properties. As both the functional monomer and the cross-linker are hydrophilic, the monolith capillary showed suppressed reversed-phase retention and as a result excellent selectivity toward both nucleosides and glycoproteins was observed. It exhibited the highest binding capacity as compared with other compositionally similar monolithic capillaries. Besides, because of the lower pKa value of APBA, the monolithic capillary was able to selectively capture nucleosides at near-physiological pH.

We have developed a simple, sensitive and selective colorimetric method for the detection of cadmium(II) (Cd 2+ ) using gold nanoparticles modified with 4-amino-3-hydrazino-5-mercapto-1,2,4-triazole. Organic solvents or additives are not required. It is found that Cd 2+ induces the aggregation of the modified Au-NPs via chelation, leading to a color change from red to blue. This change can be seen with bare eyes, and monitored by UV–vis spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy and dynamic light scattering. The detection limit is 30 nM (at a signal-to-noise ratio of 3). The new approach was successfully applied to the detection of Cd 2+ in spiked samples of tap water and lake water, and the results agree well with those obtained by flame atomic absorption spectroscopy.

Calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ) nanocrystals with controllable polymorph and morphology have been successfully synthesized with the aid of an effective control agent, a halogen-free, low-cost ionic liquid surfactant, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium dodecylsulfate ([C 4 mim][C 12 SO 4 ]) in a supersaturated aqueous solution. For the first time, facile preparation of pure lens-like vaterite, sheet-like calcite, and peanut-like aragonite was all achieved in the [C 4 mim][C 12 SO 4 ] aqueous solution through changing the concentration, temperature, and initial pH value and adding magnesium ions. Washed by water and ethanol, all the aggregates were free of [C 4 mim][C 12 SO 4 ] and can be stable at least 1 month in air. The crystal form of the aggregates changed from pure calcite to pure vaterite at room temperature only through increasing [C 4 mim][C 12 SO 4 ] concentration. Formation of the ordered CaCO 3 structures is mainly ascribed to the aggregation of the primary nanoparticles whose formation mechanism is related to the change of supersaturation. This study can provide a facile and environment-friendly method to fabricate CaCO 3 crystal aggregates with various morphologies and polymorphs and can be used for large-scale industrial production and biomimetic synthesis.

In this study, 3-mercaptopropyltriethoxysilane (MPTS) modified mesoporous silica based on multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs@mSiO2-MPTS) was successfully prepared. The adsorption material was characterized and used for adsorbing Hg(II) ions from aqueous solution. The equilibrium data conformed better to the Langmuir isotherm with maximum adsorption capacity calculated 349.65 mg/g at 40ºC. The kinetics analysis revealed the adsorption process fitted well with the pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The thermodynamic parameters indicated the adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. All results obtained suggested that MWCNTs@mSiO2-MPTS may be employed as an efficient material for the adsorption or preconcentration of Hg(II) ions from aqueous solution.

A novel poly(indole-co-3-methylthiophene)–ionic liquid (i.e., 1-allyl-3-vinylimidazolium bis((trifluoromethyl)sulfonyl)imide) (P(In–3-MeT)/IL) composite film was electrodeposited on a stainless steel wire for headspace solid phase microextraction. The obtained P(In–3-MeT)/IL coating was rough and showed a cauliflower-shape. It had high thermal stability (up to 450 °C) and mechanical stability and could be used for at least 180 times in solid phase microextraction (SPME) without a decrease in extraction performance. The coating exhibited high extraction capacity for some polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (e.g. naphthalene, 1-methylnaphthalene, acenaphthene, biphenyl, fluorene and phenanthrene) due to the strong hydrophobic and π–π interactions between the analytes and P(In–3-MeT)/IL. Through coupling with GC, good linearity (correlation coefficients higher than 0.9994), wide linear ranges (0.05–50 μg L−1) and low limits of detection (6.25–25.2 ng L−1) were achieved for these analytes. The reproducibility (defined as RSD) was 3.5–5.5% and 4.5–7.2% for single fiber (n = 5) and fiber-to-fiber (n = 5), respectively. The SPME-GC method was successfully applied for the determination of three real samples, and the recoveries for standards added were 86.8–105% for mosquito-repellent incense, 89.9–110% for cigarettes and 82.3–103% for industrial lubricant.

One novel microbial esterase PHE21 was cloned from the genome of Pseudomonas oryzihabitans HUP022 identified from the deep sea of the Western Pacific. PHE21 was heterologously expressed and functionally characterized to be a robust esterase which behaved high resistance to various metal ions, organic solvents, surfactants, and NaCl. Despite the fact that the two enantiomers of ethyl 3-hydroxybutyrate were hard to be enzymatically resolved before, we successfully resolved racemic ethyl 3-hydroxybutyrate through direct hydrolysis reactions and generated chiral ethyl ( S )-3-hydroxybutyrate using esterase PHE21. After process optimization, the enantiomeric excess, the conversion rate, and the yield of desired product ethyl ( S )-3-hydroxybutyrate could reach 99, 65, and 87 %, respectively. PHE21 is a novel marine microbial esterase with great potential in asymmetric synthesis as well as in other industries.

Graphical A HF acid sensor with good recyclability and selectivity was fabricated by embedding a 2D Au nanosphere array in a 3-acrylamidophenylboronic acid-functionalized hydrogel film. The volume of hydrogel film swelled with increasing concentration of HF acid, resulting in a red shift of the diffraction wavelength. The concentration of HF acid could be detected by monitoring the wavelength of the diffraction spectra. A novel hydrofluoric acid sensor was prepared by attaching a two-dimensional (2D) gold nanosphere array onto the surface of a poly(acrylamide-co-3-acrylamidophenylboronic acid) P(AAm-co-APBA) hydrogel film. The volume of the hydrogel film swelled with increasing concentration of hydrofluoric acid due to the formation of borofluoride anions between hydrofluoric acid and phenylboronic acid group, resulting in a red shift of diffraction wavelength. The concentration of hydrofluoric acid was determined through monitoring the wavelength of the diffraction spectra. Additionally, this hydrofluoric acid sensor exhibited good sensitivity, selectivity and recyclability. Moreover, this method may be applied to detect various substances and could be widely used in diverse areas such as biochemical sensors, environmental monitoring, and food analysis by selecting an appropriate recognition agent attached to the hydrogel carrier.

This study aims to investigate the interaction between 3 flavonoids (quercetin, apigenin, and naringenin) and fat mass and obesity-associated protein by fluorescence, ultraviolet-visible absorption spectroscopy, and molecular modeling. Results indicate that the intrinsic fluorescence of fat mass and obesity-associated protein can be quenched by the 3 flavonoids through a static quenching procedure. Thermodynamic analysis and molecular modeling results suggest that hydrophobic interaction and hydrogen bond forces play the major roles in the binding process. Moreover, results also show that the rank order of quenching constant and binding constant is quercetin > apigenin > naringenin.
