Sulfur-doped copper-cobalt bimetallic oxides (S-CuYO) with abundant Cu(I) were successfully synthesized by a co-precipitation method and were for the first time utilized to activate peroxymonosulfate (PMS) for the degradation of chloramphenicol (CAP). For comparison purposes, sulfur-doped monometallic oxides (S-CuO and S-CoO) and non-doped copper-cobalt bimetallic oxide (CuCoO-1) were also prepared via the same processes. The results demonstrated that S-CuCoO had the highest catalytic activity among the catalysts. The sulfur-doped catalyst significantly improved the catalytic performance and stability. More than 98% of CAP (20 mg/L) was removed within 15 min at the initial pH = 5. The superior catalytic activity of S-CuCoO mainly resulted from the synergy of Cu(I) and Co(II). The presence of Cu(I) improved the conversion of Co(III) to Co(II), which maintained the high catalytic performance of S-CuCoO. In addition, the produced Cu(II) was further converted to Cu(I) by lattice oxygen (O 2− ), ensuring an adequate supply of Cu(I) in the catalyst. Radical quenching experiments revealed that both the SO 4 − and OH radicals were generated by the interaction of S-CuCoO with PMS, thereby contributing to the efficient degradation of CAP and the OH radicals played a larger role. The main intermediates of the CAP degradation were identified by high-performance liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (HPLC-MS/MS). Theoretical calculations of the frontier electron densities (FEDs) were performed to determine the possible degradation pathways of CAP.

Nanozymes are potential candidates for constructing sensors due to their adjustable activity, high stability, and high cost-effectiveness. However, due to the lack of reasonable means, designing and preparing efficient nanozymes remains challenging. Herein, inspired by the property of natural laccase, we applied the novel and facile low-temperature plasma (LTP) technology to fabricate a series of different base-ligand Cu metal organic framework (MOF) nanozymes (namely, A-Cu, G-Cu, C-Cu and T-Cu nanozymes) with laccase-like activity successfully. Owing to the different catalytic capacities of four types of base-Cu-MOF nanozymes in the response to five common effective bioactive substances, we constructed the nanozyme-encoded array sensor for the identification of different bioactive compounds. As a result, the four-channel colorimetric sensor array was constructed, in which four laccase-like nanozymes were utilized as the sensing units, achieving high-throughput, high-sensitivity and rapid detection/identification of five common bioactive compounds in the concentration range of 1.5–150 μg mL −1 through different color output patterns. It is worth noting that the as-prepared sensor array can successfully distinguish the natural bioactive compounds in a variety of real samples. Furthermore, with the assistance of smartphones, we also designed a portable smart sensing approach for detecting the bioactive compounds effectively in food. This study has therefore not only provided an effective way for preparation highly effectively nanozymes, but also established a new sensing platform for intelligent sensing of bioactive components in food.

Cu(II) adulteration in preserved vegetables by unreliable producers to increase their visual appeal or compensate for natural colour changes is most common. Methanobactin (Mb) is a Cu(II)-coordinated peptide, which plays crucial role in Cu(II) capture and absorption and the catalysis
of Cu(II)-containing methane monooxygenase in methanotrophs. In this study, Mb-functionalized gold nanoparticles (Mb-AuNPs) was applied to develop a dual readout colorimetric detection for Cu(II) adulteration in preserved vegetables. In the presence of Cu(II), Mb-AuNPs was assembled into nanocluster
driven by Cu(II)/Mb coordination, and the assembly process was monitored by the visible spectrum on the variation of surface plasmon resonance peak. The results showed that, Mb-AuNPs possessed excellent peroxidase-like activity after Cu(II) coordination. In the presence of Mb-AuNPs, the amount
of Cu(II) obviously affected the rate of hydroquinone oxidation by H2O2 and the change of A246. The visible and ultraviolet dual-readout detection system containing Mb-AuNPs, hydroquinone and H2O2 exhibited high sensitivity and selectivity
for Cu(II). The linear range of visible and UV detection towards Cu(II) was 0.05–0.4 μmol/L, the limit of detection were 37.50 nmol/L and 4.48 nmol/L, respectively. In conclusion, the Cu(II) coordination driven Mb-AuNPs assembly makes it able to detect Cu(II) adulteration in
preserved vegetables by dual channel methods to eliminate the occurrence of false positives and improve the accuracy of measurement results. Such non-spatially separated Mb-AuNPs assembly and it catalyzed hydroquinone oxidation dual channel readout was simple, fast, reliable and significantly
facilitated the detection efficiency of Cu(II).

In this study, a novel Janus membrane was developed by constructing Cu-1,3,5-benzenetricarboxylic acid (Cu-BTC) metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) hydrophilic coating on polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membrane. The Cu-BTC@PVA/PVDF Janus membrane showed a rougher surface with an in-air water contact angle of 27.4˚ and an underwater oil contact angle of 152.8°. The Cu-BTC had minimal impact on mass transfer efficiency in MD process, and the Janus membrane exhibited excellent anti-oil-fouling and anti-NOM-fouling properties. The formation of the hydration layer, the slip boundary effect, and the electrostatic repulsion by the hydrophilic serrated interface were the main antifouling mechanisms. The hydrophobic-hydrophobic interaction was the main fouling mechanism of PVDF membrane for both oil and NOM. Sodium alginate (SA) displayed severe fouling with a compacted fouling layer in PVDF membrane due to the concentration polarization (CP) and gel layer formation. Inorganic fouling was the predominant fouling for the high CP and inorganic–organic coupling. While humic acid (HA) surpassed SA in Cu-BTC@PVA/PVDF Janus membrane for the stronger hydrogen bond, hydrophobic-hydrophobic interaction was significantly alleviated. Inorganic fouling was also significantly alleviated due to the strong electrostatic repulsion effect. The prepared Janus membrane has great potential to promote MD dealing with hypersaline industrial wastewaters containing complex organic matters.

A novel dual-modality readout biosensing method is developed for Cu(II), coenzyme (CoA) and histone acetyltransferase (HAT) analysis based on an electrosynthesized tris(bipyridine)ruthenium(II)-functionalized metal-organic framework (Ru-MOF). In this protocol, the Ru-MOF with a delicate structure serves as both an electrochemiluminescent (ECL) and fluorescent (FL) probe. Interestingly, Cu(II) can hinder the two distinct processes favorably, thus realizing bidirectional detection of Cu(II) via an “on-off” method. Simultaneously, CoA, which contains a sulfhydryl group, can ignite a reverse “off-on” process due to the polymeric interaction of CoA and Cu(II) (2: 1). Similarly, abundant CoA molecules could also be generated regularly by a typical HAT p300-driven acetylation reaction, hence accomplishing HAT p300 activity analysis. Subsequently, an ingenious “on-off” route is exhibited again by the introduction of some small molecules (including anacardic acid and C646), which present an inhibiting effect on HAT p300 activity. Furthermore, quantitative analysis of Cu(II), CoA and HAT p300 (ECL/FL) is achieved brightly with detection limits of 0.19/0.76 nM, 1.3/6.5 nM and 1.5/8.8 nM, respectively. Ultimately, this two-channel biosensor with excellent analytical performance is applied successfully in real samples, demonstrating its potential use in bioanalysis.

This work reported that protease can be used as the signal label to amplify the signal of electrochemical immunosensors. Carbon nanotube (CNT) was used as the carrier of recognition antibody and signal label. The nanolabel was captured by sensor electrode via a sandwich-type immunoreaction. Protease on the surface of nanolabel can catalyze the hydrolysis of peptide substrate to liberate an amino terminal Cu(II)- and Ni(II)-binding (ATCUN) peptide. The released ATCUN peptide can bind with Cu(II) to generate an electrocatalyst which exhibits high electrocatalytic ability for water oxidation. Thus, the signal was amplified again by the redox cycling between ATCUN-Cu(II) and H 2 O. The immunosensor exhibits low background current because of the poor redox activity of peptide substrate and the high oxidation overpotential of H 2 O molecule. Based on the signal amplification of protease and redox cycling, the target concentration as low as 10 pg/mL can be readily measured with prostate-specific antigen (PSA) as the model analyte. The proposed immunosensor was applied to determine PSA in human serum samples with satisfactory results.

A composite solid electrolyte comprising a Cu−Al bimetallic metal-organic framework (CAB), lithium salt (LiTFSI) and polyethylene oxide (PEO) was fabricated through molecular grafting to enhance the ionic conductivity of the PEO-based electrolytes. Experimental and molecular dynamics simulation results indicated that the electrolyte with 10 wt.% CAB (PL-CAB-10%) exhibits high ionic conductivity (8.42×10 −4 S/cm at 60 °C), high Li + transference number (0.46), wide electrochemical window (4.91 V), good thermal stability, and outstanding mechanical properties. Furthermore, PL-CAB-10% exhibits excellent cycle stability in both Li−Li symmetric battery and Li/PL-CAB- 10%/LiFePO 4 asymmetric battery setups. These enhanced performances are primarily attributable to the introduction of the versatile CAB. The abundant metal sites in CAB can react with TFSI − and PEO through Lewis acid–base interactions, promoting LiTFSI dissociation and improving ionic conductivity. Additionally, regular pores in CAB provide uniformly distributed sites for cation plating during cycling.

Catalytically agitating paddles are essential to perform liquid-solid heterogeneous catalytic reactions on an industrial scale due to the improved mass transfer and easy catalyst recovery. Herein, bimetallic oxides were formed after the calcination of nanomaterials derived from metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). Particularly, Mn(M)-BTC nanomaterials were synthesized by self-assembly of Mn 2+ ions (mixed with various dopants such as Cu 2+ , Ce 3+ , or Fe 2+ ) and H 3 BTC ligands in a mixed solvent of ethanol and water. It was found that in the powdery form, the Mn-Cu oxide derivate exhibited the highest degradation rate in the catalytic wet peroxide oxidation process (CWPO process), which was significantly higher than that of single metal oxide as well as Mn-Fe and Mn-Ce oxide derivates. The reason was caused by the synergistic effect between Mn-Cu promoted the formation of Mn 3+ and Cu + species to boost the CWPO reaction. Furthermore, the obtained Mn-Cu powdery catalysts were 3D-printed to obtain monolithic agitating paddles with different geometries, which were then mounted on a central shaft in the stirred reactor. An advanced oxidation process was used to investigate the effect of 3D patterns on the degradation efficiency of various organic dyes. It was discovered that the 3D-printed grid with higher cell density (484 cpsi) had better liquid mixing efficiency and thus better catalytic performance, which could be repeatedly used more than seven times. Additionally, the numerical simulation analysis (computational fluid dynamics) revealed a good mixing efficiency and improved mass transfer in the entire reactor equipped with the designed monolithic agitating impellers.

The Cu/TiO 2 catalysts modified by Sb were compounded through the sol-gel way and put into use for the selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NOx with NH 3 . Experimental results suggested that CuSb/TiO 2 -0.4 exhibited the excellent NOx conversion and SO 2 tolerance. Subsequently, the relationship between surface physicochemical properties and catalytic performance was also investigated by different characterization methods. From characterizations, the introduction of Sb for Cu/TiO 2 could promote the generation of more Cu 2+ , surface adsorbed oxygen species and surface acid sites on CuSb/TiO 2 -0.4 catalyst. Furthermore, Sb species on CuSb/TiO 2 -0.4 could contribute to the formation of more surface ad-NOx and ad-NH 3 species, which would enhance the NH 3 -SCR process effectively through both the Langmuir-Hinshelwood (L-H) and Eley-Rideal (E-R) mechanisms.

Hemin as the organic linker ligand and Cu (II) as the metal center were applied to prepare a copper-metal-organic framework (Cu-hemin-MOF) via one-step hydrothermal method. Characterization using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) demonstrate that the acquired Cu-hemin-MOF possesses the appearance of 3D ball-flower shape with the existence of C, N, O, Fe, and Cu on the surface. Further study found that this 3D ball-flower shaped Cu-hemin-MOF exhibits peroxidase-like activity, which can catalyze the peroxidase substrate of o-phenylenediamine (OPD) to generate 2,3-diaminophenazine (DAP) in the presence of H 2 O 2 . DAP has a yellow color and also emits a strong fluorescence when excited by ultraviolet light. Interestingly, Cu-hemin-MOF’s peroxidase-like activity can be strongly inhibited by glutathione (GSH). In view of this, a dual readout (fluorescence and colorimetry) was proposed to detect GSH for the first time. Under optimal conditions, the proposed method exhibits good linear relationship between the signal response (fluorescence and colorimetry) and the concentration of GSH, and low limits of detection (LOD) of 2.3 and 26.6 nM, respectively.

Meniscus-confined electrodeposition (MCED) is an effective and versatile technique for fabrication of alloy structures with precise localization and high controllability. Here, the fabrication of cobalt-copper (Co/Cu) alloy microwires using MCED techniques is reported. Co/Cu microwires with a wide range of compositions (Co9Cu91 to Co100Cu0) and controllable morphology were printed using the co-electrodeposition mode from a single electrolyte. We utilized multiphysics finite element simulation to investigate the influence of electrolyte evaporation and electric field on the concentration distribution of metal ions in the meniscus. The concentration of ions at the substrate interface increases linearly with decreasing humidity and increasing current density, which can be used to fine turn the alloy composition. By further analyzing the alloy composition, we found that the electrodeposition of Cu is diffusion controlled, while Co is mainly electrochemical reaction controlled, as a results of combined action of surface evaporation and reaction dynamics in the meniscus. The prepared alloy wires are polycrystalline, dense and uniform composition distribution. The coercivity and magnetic anisotropy are enhanced by increasing of the copper content in the alloy wires. The high tunability of composition make this alloy a promising material for magnetic micro/nano-electromechanical devices.

Flexible multifunctional pressure sensors for human motion monitoring have recently attracted extensive attention. However, the preparation of a multifunctional sensor with wide coverage and high sensitivity to pressure detection remains a considerable challenge. Here, we design a flexible multifunctional pressure sensor consisting of Cu-catechol nanowire coated carbonized nanofiber networks (Cu-CAT@CNFN) sandwiched between two interlocking polydimethylsiloxane doped with ZnS:Cu (ZnS:Cu/PDMS) composite electrode films. Due to the pressure concentration between the interlock micromastoid arrays and the thicker pressure sensitive layer, the pressure sensors demonstrate a high sensitivity of 45.40 kPa −1 , pressure detection coverage of 0 to 110 kPa, a response time of 0.166 s, outstanding cyclic stability of 5,000 cycles and visualization of the pressure. Furthermore, the pressure sensor can be used to detect pulses, wrist and elbow bending, and finger press. The excellent performance of the pressure sensor demonstrates its application potential in the next generation of wearable electronics.
