Liquid–liquid phase equilibria of binary solutions of the room temperature ionic liquid (RTIL) 1-methyl-3-octylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([C 8 mim][BF 4 ]) with 1-heptanol or 2-pentanol were measured. The critical exponents β obtained from the liquid–liquid equilibrium data in the critical region were consistent with the 3D-Ising value, which confirmed the 3D-Ising criticality of the investigated binary ionic solutions. The asymmetry of the diameters of the coexistence curves was analyzed by the complete scaling theory, indicating a significant contribution of the heat capacity related term. The RPM (restricted primitive model)-rescaled critical parameters were calculated, which showed dual characters of both solvophobic and coulombic criticalities of the studied binary ionic solutions.

CsPbX 3 (X = I, Br, Cl) perovskite quantum dots (QDs) have shown great potential in optoelectronic devices due to their wide tunable bandgap, high photoluminescence quantum yield, and narrow emission spectra. Currently, methods for regulating blue light emission through component engineering or dimensional engineering suffer from issues such as halogen phase separation and increased defects, making it difficult to meet the strict requirements of display technology for pure blue light (CIE y < 0.15). Additionally, traditional synthesis processes are complex and have poor compatibility with Micro-LED miniaturization technology, which restricts their industrial application. Therefore, this study proposes an efficient and green spray drying method. By dissolving the perovskite precursors and halide salts in an aqueous solution, CsPb(Cl/Br) 3 QDs can be rapidly (<10 s) synthesized without organic solvents, and continuous tuning from green to blue light is achieved. This method effectively suppresses surface defects and phase separation through Cl element encapsulation, significantly enhancing stability.Moreover, its excellent processability supports spraying and film formation on any substrate, enabling the direct preparation of highly uniform Mini/Micro-LED pixel units. This technology provides a new approach for large-scale, low-cost manufacturing of perovskite QDs and is expected to accelerate the commercialization process of next-generation display technologies.

Background Enteric methane (CH 4 ) from ruminants represents a major contributor to agricultural greenhouse gas emissions. The red seaweed Asparagopsis taxiformis ( A. taxiformis ) is a highly effective CH 4 emission inhibitor, but its large-scale application is restricted by limited biomass availability. This study evaluated whether reducing the inclusion level of A. taxiformis (0.32% dry matter, DM) combined with 3-nitrooxypropanol (3-NOP; 0.05% DM) could maintain a high inhibitory efficacy, and elucidated the underlying microbial mechanisms through in vitro fermentation and metagenomics analysis. Results The combined treatment decreased CH 4 production by 98.21% ( P < 0.01) without impairing DM degradation, and markedly shifted rumen fermentation towards propionate, lowering the acetate-to-propionate ratio (1.59 vs. 2.65; P < 0.01). Metagenomic profiling revealed substantial reductions in the abundance of Methanobrevibacter and Ruminococcus , along with increased levels of propionate-associated bacteria such as Prevotella , Treponema , Eubacterium , and Selenomonas ( P < 0.01). Functionally, the combined treatment downregulated key enzymes in hydrogenotrophic and methylotrophic methanogenesis, including methyl-coenzyme M reductase (EC:2.8.4.1) and tetrahydromethanopterin S-methyltransferase (EC:2.1.1.86), thereby blocking terminal methanogenic steps. Conclusions Collectively, these results demonstrate that co-supplementation with A. taxiformis and 3-NOP achieves near-complete methanogenesis inhibition at drastically reduced seaweed dosage through coordinated changes in fermentation patterns, microbial community structure, and methanogenic enzymatic pathways. This approach provides a practical strategy to overcome biomass limitations of A. taxiformis and warrants validation in long-term in vivo trials.

Aberrant lipid metabolism is a hallmark of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), yet the regulatory mechanisms governing lipid droplet (LD) dynamics and their contribution to tumor progression remain poorly understood. Here, we developed an ultrasensitive phosphoproteomic platform using high-affinity HPDA@Ti4+ nanospheres to map LD-associated phosphorylation events across six HCC cell lines. By correlating phosphoproteomic signatures with LD morphology, we identified distinct regulatory signatures associated with LD size and abundance. Functional perturbation screens identified two distinct phosphoprotein modules controlling LD size: silencing SH3KBP1, SLK, EHD2, EPB41L3, and NEXN reduced LD size in Huh1 cells, whereas silencing CPD, BET1, UFL1, RRP1B, OGFR, and CD2BP2 enlarged LDs in Huh7 cells. Notably, we identified EPB41L3 as a critical metabolic-metastatic link; its loss decreased LD size and accelerated HCC migration and invasion, correlating with poor clinical prognosis. Crucially, we identified five key phosphorylation sites on EPB41L3 essential for its function; substituting these with alanine completely abolished its regulatory control over both LD size and HCC metastatic potential. Together, these findings delineate a phosphorylation-based regulatory network controlling the LD architecture and metastatic potential in HCC. Our study not only identifies potential therapeutic targets but also establishes a generalizable phosphoproteomic framework for interrogating lipid signaling in cancer metabolism.

Fluazinam is a benzamide fungicide commonly used in agricultural
production to prevent and control fungal-induced plant diseases. However,
its residues in food products can pose potential health hazards. To
address this issue, we have developed an electrochemical sensor based
on a MOF-5/AB-modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) for sensitive
detection of fluazinam. In this work, a high-performance electrochemical
sensor was fabricated via a simple composite strategy by combining
AB, which possesses high electrical conductivity and superior electron
transfer ability, with MOF-5, a material featuring a well-developed
porous structure and large specific surface area. The structural and
morphological characteristics of the MOF-5/AB and electrochemical
sensing performance toward fluazinam of MOF-5/AB/GCE are investigated.
The MOF-5/AB/GCE exhibited outstanding electrochemical sensing performance
for fluazinam detection, providing an ultralow detection limit of
0.0166 μM, a wide linear range of 0–100 μM, high
sensitivity, excellent reproducibility and stability, and remarkable
selectivity against common interfering species. In real samples, fluazinam
yielded high recovery rates, confirming the potential of MOF-5/AB/GCE
for practical environmental and biomedical monitoring applications.
This research provides a novel and efficient sensing platform for
electrochemical detection of fluazinam residues and offers a valuable
reference for modification of MOFs and their extended applications
in the field of electrochemical sensing.

3-TPT is used for the efficient concentration of azurite for the first time. • 3‑TPT achieves a pronounced separation efficiency between azurite and K‑feldspar. • 3-TPT chemically adsorbs onto azurite via the formation of N Cu S C rings. The strong surface hydrophilicity of azurite leads to its low recovery, and the poor flotation separation between azurite and gangue minerals further reduces the utilization efficiency of copper. This study presents a novel selective collector 1-(3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)thiourea (3-TPT) for the efficient recovery of azurite from K-feldspar. Results from flotation tests and contact angle measurements indicate that with 150 mg/L 3-TPT, the contact angle of azurite surface raised to 79.4°, the recovery reaches 94.16 %, while K-feldspar remains hydrophilic, with a recovery of only 11.29 %. The selective adsorption mechanism of 3-TPT on azurite surface was revealed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Scanning Electron Microscope-Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy (SEM-EDS) analyses. XPS and FTIR analyses indicate that after the interaction of 3-TPT with the azurite surface, the C N stretching in 3-TPT exhibits a notable shift, and changes in the chemical states of Cu and S are observed during adsorption, confirming that 3-TPT chemically adsorbs onto azurite via the formation of N Cu S C rings, whereas its adsorption on K-feldspar is negligible. SEM-EDS results further confirm the selective interaction of 3-TPT on azurite surface, as evidenced by changes in surface morphology and elemental analysis. Characteristic elements S, N, and F from 3-TPT were clearly detected on the azurite surface in EDS mapping. This research highlights the potential of 3-TPT in copper concentration, not only improving the recovery efficiency of copper resources but also contributing to the advancement of more environmentally friendly direct flotation practices for copper oxide minerals.

Detection of 3-MCPD in lipid-rich food matrices remains challenging due to trace analyte levels, high viscosity, and severe matrix interference. Herein, a photothermal-driven magnetic “three-in-one” sensing platform based on L -cysteine-functionalized ZnFe 2 O 4 ( L -ZFO) nanoparticles was developed for rapid and sensitive screening of 3-MCPD in edible oils. The multifunctional platform integrates magnetic enrichment, photothermal-assisted signal amplification, and colorimetric sensing, enabling efficient extraction and detection with minimal sample pretreatment. Benefiting from the synergistic interfacial enrichment and photothermal enhancement, the proposed method exhibited a linear range of 0.01–0.20 mg/L with a low detection limit of 1.4 μg/L. The platform showed acceptable recoveries of 75.0–92.0% and relative standard deviations below 5.8% in edible oil samples. Moreover, comparable responses obtained in buffer and oil matrices demonstrated excellent anti-interference capability toward complex lipid systems. The recyclable L -ZFO probe also exhibited good stability and reproducibility over 3 cycles. This work provides an elimination of pretreatment strategy for rapid on-site screening of 3-MCPD in edible oils.

The wideband near-infrared (NIR) phosphors for next-generation intelligent NIR light sources are becoming a research hotspot in the field of luminescent materials due to their potential applications in optical sensing, biological imaging, and smart lighting. This study reports a Cr 3+ -activated A 3 B(PO 4 ) 3 -type (Sr 3 Lu(PO 4 ) 3 ), abbreviated as SLP) near-infrared phosphor. Under 466 nm blue light excitation, SLP:Cr 3+ phosphor exhibits a broad near-infrared emission from 700 to 1200 nm with a peak wavelength at 860 nm, a full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 141 nm, and an initial quantum yield of 31.48%. Structural and spectroscopic characterization confirms that Cr 3+ preferentially occupies the octahedral coordination sites of Lu 3+ in the matrix, forming a weak crystal field environment that favors the spin-allowed 4 T 2 → 4 A 2 transition of Cr 3+ , leading to broad near-infrared emission. Additionally, by substituting Y 3+ for the B-site (Lu 3+ site), the luminescent intensity of the material is significantly enhanced, and the quantum yield is increased to 81.53%. Furthermore, the introduction of Yb 3+ constructs a Cr 3+ →Yb 3+ energy transfer system, further optimizing the luminescent performance. Although the phosphor exhibits severe thermal quenching, the packaged near-infrared phosphor-converted light-emitting diodes (NIR pc-LEDs) maintain a low surface temperature of 59.5 °C at 500 mA, ensuring reliable operation. The phosphor also exhibits excellent temperature sensitivity (max relative sensitivity: 3.33%·K −1 ) for fluorescence thermometry. Practical applications including invisible QR code encryption, night vision, biological imaging, and long-distance illumination are demonstrated, showcasing the versatility of the developed NIR pc-LED. This work provides a high-performance NIR phosphor candidate for multi-functional smart light sources.

The development of robust strategies for designing high-performance ultraviolet (UV) birefringent materials has become a critical challenge. The combination of alkali metal and Ca2+ cations, which do not exhibit d–d or f–f transitions, with [NO3]− anions that possess high polarizability anisotropy results in the synthesis of three hydrated alkali metal calcium nitrates, ACa(NO3)3·2H2O (A = NH4, Rb, Cs). The title compounds were synthesized at room temperature using the water solution–evaporation technique, featuring a unique chain-like structure composed of [CaO9] polyhedra and [NO3]− units. The compounds exhibit notable optical properties, including short UV absorption edges (220–235 nm) and moderate birefringence (0.077–0.086 at 546 nm). Detailed structural investigation and theoretical analyses reveal that the birefringence is primarily due to the planar triangular arrangement of the [NO3]− groups. This research not only increases the structural diversity within inorganic materials but also provides a key approach for further studies of all-inorganic birefringent optical materials in the UV region.

Salvianolic acid B (SA) has significant regulatory effects on glucolipid metabolism. Combining SA with resistant starch endowed this type of starch with unique functional properties. This study represents the first direct complexation between SA and Canna edulis type 3 resistant starch (RS3). The findings indicated that SA has a beneficial effect on the physicochemical and prebiotic properties of RS3. SA and RS3 form a complex via non-covalent interactions, thereby increasing the crystalline and gelatinization temperatures. The 1 H NMR spectrum exhibited aromatic ring signals and increased hydroxyl signal intensity. Concurrently, the solubility of SA-RS3 decreased after composite formation, while the expansion, water absorption index and resistant starch content (59.40%) increased markedly. Fermentation analysis revealed decreases in pH and increases in reducing sugar content, in vitro antioxidant activity and hypoglycemic activity. Interestingly, SA-RS3 substantially increased the relative abundance of the Firmicutes and Actinomycetes phyla, promoted the proliferation of the beneficial bacterium Bifidobacterium , inhibited the growth of Klebsiella and Sutterella , and increased the content of acetic, propionic, and butyric acids. This indicates that SA confers antioxidant properties while retaining the prebiotic properties of raw RS3. Consequently, SA-RS3 demonstrates potential for blood glucose regulation and exhibits in vitro prebiotic properties, offering a novel direction for the development of RS3-type functional foods.

1-Octen-3-ol is a characteristic volatile organic compound released from moldy wheat. Therefore, the development of high-performance gas sensors for 1-octen-3-ol detection is of great significance for ensuring grain safety by enabling real-time monitoring of wheat quality. However, substantial challenges remain, including poor selectivity and insufficient stability. To address these limitations, this study designed and successfully synthesized a three-dimensional nest-like Tungsten trioxide (WO 3 ) structure decorated with FeCo nanoalloys. By modulating the loading amount of the iron (Fe) cobalt (Co) alloy, we achieved precise tuning of surface oxygen vacancies and facilitated efficient electron transfer within the nanocomposite, resulting in a significantly enhanced gas response. The optimized 1.5FeCo@WO 3 sensor exhibited a high response value of 12.68 toward 100 ppm 1-octen-3-ol, along with superior selectivity and excellent long-term stability. Systematic material characterizations, including scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analyses, confirmed that the composite possesses a high specific surface area, abundant oxygen vacancies, and a robust interfacial electronic interaction between the FeCo alloy and the WO 3 matrix. Furthermore, density functional theory calculations were integrated into the mechanistic analysis. Consequently, this work yields a promising sensor candidate for the early warning of wheat diseases and proposes a material design strategy for developing economical, high-sensitivity gas sensors for agricultural applications.

Organic thin-film transistors (OTFTs) hold immense potential for ultrasensitive gas detection; however, their performance is fundamentally constrained by the trade-off between carrier mobility and analyte permeability. Herein, we resolve this dichotomy by engineering a long-range ordered P3HT nanowire percolation network via a kinetically controlled solvent-concentration-temperature ternary modulation strategy. This approach effectively enhances nanowire network continuity, thereby enabling efficient charge transport while preserving analyte-accessible diffusion pathways. Consequently, the optimized device achieves a six-fold enhancement in mobility and an exceptional ammonia (NH3) detection limit of 238 ppb, attributed to the unimpeded diffusion of analytes to the buried channel interface. Furthermore, to transcend the intrinsic non-linearity of physical adsorption kinetics, we integrate a gradient boosting regression algorithm, creating a "sensor-algorithm" initial proof-of-concept that enables precise, linearized quantitative analysis. This work provides a fundamental design principle for structuring soft electronic materials and demonstrates a versatile platform for low-power, intelligent environmental and health sensing applications.
