Optimize the separation and transport mechanism of photogenerated carriers in heterojunction composites, and make full use of the active sites of each material are key factors to enhance photocatalytic activity. Herein, we successfully synthesize defective CdLa 2 S 4 @La(OH) 3 @Co 3 S 4 (CLS@LOH@CS) Z-scheme heterojunction photocatalysts through a facile solvothermal method, which show broad-spectrum absorption and excellent photocatalytic activity. La(OH) 3 nanosheets not only greatly increase the specific surface area of photocatalyst, but also can be coupled with CdLa 2 S 4 (CLS) and form Z-scheme heterojunction by converting irradiation light. In addition, Co 3 S 4 with photothermal properties is obtained by in-situ sulfurization method, which can release heat to improve the mobility of photogenerated carriers, and also be used as a cocatalyst for hydrogen production. Most importantly, the formation of Co 3 S 4 leads to a large number of sulfur vacancy defects in CLS, and thus improving the separation efficiency of photogenerated electrons and holes, and increasing the catalytic active sites. Consequently, the maximum hydrogen production rate of CLS@LOH@CS heterojunctions can reach 26.4 mmol g -1 h −1 , which is 293 times than pristine CLS (0.09 mmol g -1 h −1 ). This work will provide a new horizon for synthesizing high efficiency heterojunction photocatalysts through switching the separation and transport modes of photogenerated carrier.

A competitive fluorescence immunoassay for the quantitative detection of 2-amino-3-methylimidazo [4,5-f] quinoline (IQ) in pan-fried meat patties was developed, using magnetic nanoparticles coupled with coating antigen as the capture probe and anti-IQ antibody coupled with NaYF4: Yb, Er upconversion nanoparticles as the signal probe. Under optimal conditionals, the wide detection range for IQ in phosphate buffer saline is from 0.01 to 100 μg·L−1(R2= 0.991) with a detection limit of 0.007 μg·L−1. This proposed method has been applied to detect IQ in two different types of pan-fried meat patties at varying frying times, and the IQ content in chicken patties and fish patties are 2.11–3.47 μg·kg−1and 1.35–2.85 μg·kg−1, respectively. These results are consistent with that of the ultraperformance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. In summary, this method can serve as a sensitive and specific test tool for the determination of IQ in processed meat.Keywords:2-amino-3-methylimidazo [4,5-f] quinoline;upconversion nanoparticles;magnetic separation;fluorescence immunoassay;heat processed meat

Removal and recovery of phosphorus (P) from wastewater is beneficial to both environmental protection and resource sustainability. Enriching the low concentration of P in wastewater will greatly facilitate the effective recovery of P. To enhance the adsorption performance and recyclability of adsorbents for low concentration P-containing wastewater, a novel three-dimensional (3D) graphene/La(OH) 3 -nanorod aerogel (GLA) was prepared by a unique self-assembly process in this study. Benefiting from the large specific surface area of graphene aerogel , which provides sufficient loading sites for the favorable dispersion of La(OH) 3 nanorods, the GLA achieves an excellent P adsorption capacity of 76.85 mg/g. It is also highly selective for P, with adsorption capacity reduced by only 14% and 11% under the interference of high concentration of dissolved organic matter or multiple competing anions respectively. Further mechanistic investigation revealed that the whole adsorption process consists of three stages: (1) ion-exchange process; (2) La P inter-sphere coordination process; and (3) crystal evolution process. In the continuous flow adsorption-desorption cycles, the P concentration was concentrated ~25 times that of the feeding water (2 mg P/L). To our knowledge, this is the first time that La-modified graphene aerogel has been studied for P recovery. This provides a new method for the P removal and recovery of low concentration P-containing wastewater.

A low-cost and efficient filter medium for Cd(II) removal was prepared by anchoring -SCN functional groups (by 3-thiocyanatopropyltriethoxysilane, TCPS) on ceramsite via the approach of synthesizing a honeycomb calciumaluminum-silicate-hydrate (C-A-S-H) layer as intermediate. The specific surface area of ceramsite was increased enormously by more than 50 times because of the modification of honeycomb layer. Moreover, the abundant Si-OH bonds existing in the structure of CAS-H can serve as active sites for TCPS. The combined effects ensure that the hybrid filter medium (named ceramsite/C-A-S-H/TCPS) demonstrated a high Cd(II) adsorption capacity of 18.27 mg·g 1 for particle size of 0.1-0.6 mm, 12.63 mg·g −1 for 0.6-1.25 mm and 8.64 mg g −1 for 1.25-2.35 mm. The Cd(II) adsorption capacity per unit area of ceramsite/C-A-S-H/TCPS (0.1-0.6 mm) is up to 4.07 mg·m −2 , which is much higher than that of many nano-adsorbents. In addition, ceramsite/C-AS- H/TCPS could maintain a high removal efficiency (> 85%) in a wide range of pH 3-11 and showed excellent selectivity in the presence of competing ions. Furthermore, Cd(II) could be desorbed from ceramsite/C-A-S-H/TCPS composites with nearly 100%, suggesting the potential application in recycling of heavy metal ions.

The emergence and spread of bacterial pathogens acquired metallo-β-lactamase (MBL) and serine-β-lactamase (SBL) medicated β-lactam resistance gives rise to an urgent need for the development of new dual-action MBL/SBL inhibitors. Application of a pharmacophore fusion strategy led to the identification of (2′S)-(1-(3′-mercapto-2′-methylpropanamido)methyl)boronic acid (MS01) as a new dual-action inhibitor, which manifests broad-spectrum inhibition to representative MBL/SBL enzymes, including the widespread VIM-2 and KPC-2. Guided by the VIM-2:MS01 and KPC-2:MS01 complex structures, further structural optimization yielded new, more potent dual-action inhibitors. Selectivity studies indicated that the inhibitors had no apparent inhibition to human angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 and showed selectivity across serine hydrolyases in E. coli and human HEK293T cells labeled by the activity-based probe TAMRA-FP. Moreover, the inhibitors displayed potentiation of meropenem efficacy against MBL- or SBL-positive clinical isolates without apparent cytotoxicity. This work will aid efforts to develop new types of clinically useful dual-action inhibitors targeting MBL/SBL enzymes.

In this work, we prepared chitosan/eugenol-loaded IRMOF-3 nanoparticles (CS/IRMOF-3-EU) composite films using (0, 2, 4, and 6 wt%) isoreticular metal-organic framework (IRMOF-3) nanoparticles loaded with eugenol (IRMOF-3-EU), co-blended with chitosan to develop environmentally friendly food packaging materials with sustained antimicrobial activity. The microstructure and physicochemical properties of the composite films were investigated. The addition of IRMOF-3-EU to the CS matrix significantly enhanced the UV-blocking property and elongation at the break of the composite films; the CS/IRMOF-3-EU composite films inherited the antioxidant and antibacterial properties of eugenol (EU), and the DPPH radical scavenging ability was increased to 53.8% with the addition of 6% IRMOF-3-EU, while it showed excellent antibacterial ability; in addition, the CS/IRMOF-3-EU composite films achieved the sustainable release of eugenol to achieve the long-lasting antibacterial effect. Experiments on strawberry preservation applications showed that the CS/IRMOF-3-EU films slowed down the deterioration of strawberry quality, delayed the decline of hardness, effectively suppressed weight loss, H 2 O 2 content, and malondialdehyde content, and delayed the decline of catalase activity and peroxidase activity. It showed that the CS/IRMOF-3-EU composite films could be used to maintain the postharvest quality and prolong the shelf life of strawberries.

Chitin and its derivatives contain biologically fixed nitrogen elements, which can provide nitrogen sources for N-containing chemicals. Herein, a series of pyridinium-based ionic liquids were synthesized to directly catalyze the conversion of N -acetyl-D-glucosamine (NAG, the monomer of chitin) to 3-acetamido-5-acetylfuran (3A5AF). The yield of 3A5AF in 1-carboxymethyl pyridinium chloride ionic liquid reached 37.49%, without any additives. Using B 2 O 3 and CaCl 2 as additives, the optimum yield increased to 67.37% at 180 °C in 20 min. In addition, HPLC-MS analysis has been utilized to elucidate the reaction mechanism. This research on turning “waste” into “wealth” opens up new ways for the utilization of biomass waste, which not only reduces environmental pollution but also has potential economic value.

Developing cost-effective and stable non-noble electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) is now the critical issue for large-scale application of zinc-air batteries. Here, we presented a simple method to synthesize highly dispersed cobalt manganate spinel nanodots in-situ embedded in amine-functionalized carbon black. Silane coupling agent 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES) played dual roles in the preparation: (1) to achieve amine-functionalization of carbon support; (2) as weak alkali to precipitate metal hydroxides which were then converted to spinel nanodots after mild calcination . The hydrophilicity of the carbon substrate was enhanced by amine modification from APTES to disperse metal oxide evenly, and the electrochemical activity was promoted through the strong interface interaction between embedded spinel nanodots and carbon substrate during the calcination process. As expected, the CoMn 2 O 4 /C-NH 2 -300 catalyst exhibited satisfactory bifunctional catalytic performance for both ORR and OER with an ΔE (E 1/2 -E j10 ) = 0.75 V, which was lower than most state-of-the-art catalysts. In addition, CoMn 2 O 4 /C-NH 2 -300 as a cathode also exhibited remarkable zinc-air battery performance in alkaline solution. This strategy of APTES as a bifunctional coupling agent provided a novel way to design and explore highly active, durable, and cost-effective catalysts for renewable energy conversion and storage.

Inorganic upconversion materials show significant importance in both basic research and applied area, and searching for suitable host material and understanding of fundamental photophysical process are particularly worth studying in upconversion application. Herein, a heavily Yb 3+ -substituted langbeinite-type Rb 2 Ti 0.80 Yb 1.20 (PO 4 ) 3 (RTYP) millimeter-sized single crystal, which has been successfully grown by high temperature solution method, exhibits efficient dual-color upconversion photoluminescence under 980 nm excitation. The lifetimes of two-photon blue emission and one-photon red emission are 4.1 μs and 17.1 μs, respectively. X-ray structural analyses reveal that the dual-color emissions are ascribed to disordered Yb 3+ -Ti 4+ pairs and crystal defect, and the higher intensity of red emission is attributed to Yb 3+ -defect energy transfer activated by Ti 4+ . Notably, the blue emission originates from cooperative luminescence of Yb 3+ dimer, and the red emission originates dominantly from the cooperative sensitization of the intrinsic defect caused by excited Yb 3+ dimer. Moreover, RTYP with disordered structure shows high thermal stability up to 1,150 °C. This work not only demonstrates the promising potential of langbeinite-type materials in multicolor upconversion application, but also sheds light on the photophysical process associated with disordered crystal structure.

A promising and practicable catalyst is the key challenge for industrial perspective to promote photocatalytic nitrogen fixation. In this study, a new 0D /2D heterojunction, oxygen vacancy-induced In(OH) 3 /carbon nitride (OV-In(OH) 3 /CN), was synthesized by generating In(OH) 3 nanoparticles on g-C 3 N 4 nanosheets in the presence of glyoxal through a facile and readily precipitation growth method at 60℃and under atmospheric pressure. The existence of oxygen vacancies, structure, morphology and optical-electronic properties of the composite were characterized by HRTEM, XPS and EPR analysis and other measurements. The OV-In(OH) 3 /CN heterojunction exhibited excellent photocatalytic activity for nitrogen fixation with a good chemical stability. The OV-In/CN-3 sample reached the maximum NH 3 generation rate to be 3.81 mM*h −1 *g −1 , which was about 10 times as that of pure g-C 3 N 4 and was also higher than that of other catalysts reported. Though the In(OH) 3 in heterojunction was demonstrated incapable of producing photogenerated electrons under vis-light irradiation, its oxygen vacancy was found to “receive” and “trap” some excited electrons from g-C 3 N 4 , promoting electron-hole pairs separation efficiency and prolonging the lifetime of carriers. And it also can introduce many chemisorption sites for N 2 . Those are the two key reasons for its high photocatalytic activity.

Aims Pantothenic acid (PA) has been applied to treat alopecia, but the underlying mechanism is still unclear. Our study aims to explore the underlying mechanism of PA in regulating hair follicle (HF) growth. Main methods Mink HFs and dermal papilla (DP) cells were isolated and cultured in vitro . HFs and DP cells were treated with 0, 10, 20, 40 μg/ml PA. The effect of PA on HF growth, DP cell proliferation, cell cycle distribution, cell migration, and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expressions in DP cells was measured. Moreover, the effect of PA on inhibitor of DNA binding 3 (ID3)/Notch signaling pathway was analyzed. Subsequently, ID3 was silenced to validate whether ID3/Notch signaling pathway was involved in regulating DP cell proliferation by PA. Key findings Both 20 μg/ml and 40 μg/ml PA promoted HF growth, G1/S transition of DP cells and IGF-1 and VEGF expressions in DP cells, while only 20 μg/ml PA promoted cell viability and the migration of DP cells. Thus 20 μg/ml PA was chosen for the following experiments. PA treatment was found to up-regulate ID3 expression but down-regulate Notch receptor 1 (Notch1) and Notch signaling targets expressions. Furthermore, ID3 knockdown reversed PA-induced cell proliferation and inhibition of Notch1 and Notch signaling targets expressions, indicating that PA-induced DP cell proliferation and inhibition of Notch signaling were mediated via up-regulation of ID3. Significance This study provides an underlying mechanism related to the effect of PA on stimulating DP cell proliferation.

exo-Tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene can serve as both the propellant and coolant in hypersonic vehicles. However, its applications are restricted by the poor properties of ignition and combustion to some extent. Fuel additives such as appropriate alcohols have the ability to overcome these deficits. Research on thermophysical properties of the mixtures composed of exo-tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene and fuel additives can provide important information for the research of fuel additives. In this work, densities and viscosities of the ternary system of exo-tetrahydrodicyclopentadiene (1) + n-decane (2) + iso-butanol (3) and three corresponding binary systems have been measured over the whole composition range in the temperature range from 293.15 to 333.15 K with an interval of 5 K and at pressure p = 0.1 MPa. The values of excess molar volumes (VmE) and viscosity deviations (Δη) of three binary systems and the ternary system were calculated and then fitted to the Redlich–Kister equation and four semi-empirical equations, respectively. The variations of VmE and Δη were explained from the viewpoints of intermolecular forces and structural effects. Furthermore, the Jouyban–Acree model was used to correlate the values of densities (ρ) and viscosities (η) of the studied mixtures with high accuracy.
