Sulfide all-solid-state lithium battery (ASSLB) with nickel-rich layered oxide as the cathode is promising for next-generation energy storage system. However, the Li+ transport dynamic and stability in ASSLB are hindered by the structural mismatches and the instabilities especially at the oxide cathode/sulfide solid electrolyte (SE) interface. In this work, we have demonstrated a simple and highly effective solid-state mechanofusion method (1500 rpm for 10 min) to combine lithium conductive NASICON-type LiZr2(PO4)3 nanocrystals (∼20 nm) uniformly and compactly onto the surface of the single crystallized LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2, which can also attractively achieve Zr4+ doping in NCM811 and oxygen vacancies in the LZPO coating without solvent and annealing. Benefiting from the alleviated interface mismatches, sufficient Li+ ion flux through the LZPO coating, promoted structural stabilities for both NCM811 and sulfide SE, strong electronic coupling effect between the LZPO and NCM811, and enlarged (003) d-spacing with enriched Li+ migration channels in NCM811, the obtained LZPO-NCM811 exhibits superior stability (185 mAh/g at 0.1C for 200 cycles) and rate performance (105 mAh/g at 1C for 1300 cycles) with high mass loading of 27 mgNCM/cm2 in sulfide ASSLB. Even with a pronounced 54 mgNCM/cm2, LZPO-NCM811 manifests a high areal capacity of 9.85 mAh/cm2. The convenient and highly effective interface engineering strategy paves the way to large-scale production of various coated cathode materials with synergistic effects for high performance ASSLBs.

Graphical In sync : The 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate (EMImTfO) dual-graphite battery exhibits a high discharge plateau above 3.0 V, which originates from the synchronized de-intercalations of EMIm + and TfO − from the graphite cathode and anode, respectively. The battery can light up a red LED with 3.0 V standard voltage. In this work, a novel dual-graphite battery (DGB) based on a pure 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate (EMImTfO) ionic liquid electrolyte is constructed. Within a charge/discharge voltage range of 1.0–3.9 V and at a current of 400 mA g −1 , batteries with dual-natural-graphite electrodes exhibit a high discharge plateau above 3.0 V with an initial discharge capacity of 46.2 mAh g −1 , delivering a capacity retention of 71.0 % after 100 cycles. Comparative studies between the natural graphite and the synthetic graphite (KS6) electrodes are also conducted. Charge-discharge tests reveal that the dual natural-graphite battery presents a higher discharge voltage plateau and better retention than the dual KS6-graphite battery. To confirm the principle of the dual-graphite systems, a cyclic voltammetry test is conducted. The results demonstrate that the EMIm + cation exhibits an even more stable intercalation/de-intercalation behavior than the TfO − anion. Further tests, including ex situ X-ray diffraction and ex situ Raman spectroscopy, are performed to reveal the mechanism of TfO − and EMIm + intercalation into graphite, both demonstrating a reversible process.

3-Hydroxypropionic acid (3-HP) is a highly sought-after platform chemical serving as a precursor to a variety of high value-added chemical products. In this study, we designed and constructed a novel light-powered in vitro synthetic enzymatic biosystem comprising acetyl-CoA ligase, acetyl-CoA carboxylase, malonyl-CoA reductase, and phosphotransferase to efficiently produce 3-HP through CO2 fixation from acetate, a cost-effective and readily available substrate. The system employed natural thylakoid membranes (TMs) for the regeneration of adenosine triphosphate and nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate. Comprehensive investigations were conducted on the effects of buffer solutions, substrate concentrations, enzyme loading levels, and TMs loading levels to optimize the yield of 3-HP. Following optimization, a production of 0.46 mM 3-HP was achieved within 6 h from an initial 0.5 mM acetate, with a yield nearing 92%. This work underscores the simplicity of 3-HP production via an in vitro biomanufacturing platform and highlights the potential for incorporating TMs as a sustainable and environmentally friendly approach in biomanufacturing processes.

Amino-functionalized ionic liquids are potential and promising media for CO 2 absorption, separation, and biocatalysts due to their greenness, favorable fluidity, higher positive charge density, and rich pore structure characteristics. Two new binary mixtures, {1-aminopropyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([NH 2 −Pmim][BF 4 ]) + dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)} and {[NH 2 −Pmim][BF 4 ] + acetonitrile (ACN)}, were prepared to investigate the thermodynamic properties and internal interaction behaviors. First, the thermodynamic properties such as dynamic viscosity, density, electrical conductivity, and refractive index of the two mixture systems over the entire concentration range were measured from 288.15 to 353.15 K. By the Arrhenius equation and Vogel−Fulcher−Tamman (VFT) equation, the temperature dependence on electrical conductivity was graphically described. To investigate the internal interactions of the mixtures, the excess molar volume ( V E ), and viscosity deviation (Δ η ) were calculated and discussed by using the measured experimental data and Redlich−Kister equation fitting. Further, the structures and energies of the cation, anion, ion pairs, and solvent molecules were obtained by density functional theory (DFT) calculations to evaluate the intermolecular interactions among the different components of the mixture systems. Also the σ-profile provided the relationship between hydrogen bond donor and acceptor between IL and solvents.

Researchers are accustomed to utilizing traditional solid-state and sol–gel routes to synthesize Na 3 V 2 (PO 4 ) 3 (NVP). No regulation mechanism is proposed to illustrate the growth process of NVP in solvothermal environment. In current work, uniform spherical particles with positive charge are synthesized by molecular self-assembly of nanosphere micelles using structural guiding agent polyethylene glycol (PEG) and surfactant Cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). Nanoflower-shaped NVP sample is successfully prepared in the 100 % methyl alcohol medium, derived from the plate V 2 O 5 (negative charge) combining with the nuclear nanospheres (positive charge) with the induction of electrostatic attraction. Based on the multi-dimensional tests and molecular dynamic calculation, the protective mechanism of polar solution for NVP system is proposed for the first time, that is, methanol solvent system can better protect the morphological features of NVP than water environment to maintain the original special nanoflower morphology. Due to the distinctive and stabilized nanoflower construction, the optimized NVP60 sample can provide more extra active sites for the efficient de-intercalation of Na + and possess a large contacting area with electrolyte, resulting in the facilitated kinetic characteristics and superior electrochemical performance. The optimized NVP60 cathode possesses superior sodium storage property in both half cell and full cell. This work proposes a synergetic strategy combining theory and experiment to design and synthesize the modified NVP-based cathode materials from the molecular bonding aspect, further promoting the development of high performance cathode for SIBs.

Flexible thermoelectric (TE) generators have received great attention as a sustainable and reliable option to convert heat from the human body and other ambient sources into electricity. This study provides a synthesis route that involves thermally induced diffusion to introduce Te and Se into Bi, fabricating an n-type Bi–Te–Se flexible thin film on a flexible substrate. This specific synthesis alters the crystal orientation (00l) of the thin film, improving in-plane electrical transportation and optimizing carrier concentration. Consequently, BixTeySe0.42 enhanced both the Seebeck coefficient and electrical conductivity, achieving a power factor of 17.1 μW cm–1 K–2 at room temperature. The TE device assembled with p-type Sb2Te3 exhibited exceptional flexibility with only a 26.2% change in resistance after 1000 times of bending at a radius of about 6 mm. The resistance change was further reduced to 7.5% after the application of a vinyl laurate coating. The fabricated TE device generated an ultrahigh output power of 792 nW with a temperature difference of 30 K.

Glypican-3 (GPC3) is an essential reference target for hepatocellular carcinoma detection, follow-up and prediction. Herein, a dual-signal electrochemical aptasensor based on reduced graphene oxide-cuprous oxide (RGO-Cu 2 O) nanozyme was developed for GPC3 detection. The RGO-Cu 2 O nanoenzyme displayed excellent electron transport effect, large specific surface area and outstanding peroxidase-like ability. The differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) signal of Cu 2 O oxidation fraction and the chronoamperometry ( i-t ) signal of H 2 O 2 decomposition catalyzed by RGO-Cu 2 O nanozyme were used as dual-signal detection. Under optimal conditions, the log-linear response ranges were 0.1 to 500.0 ng/mL with the limit of detection 0.064 ng/mL for DPV technique, and 0.1–50.0 ng/mL for i-t technique (detection limit of 0.0177 ng/mL). The electrochemical aptasensor has remarkably analytical performance with wide response range, low detection limit, excellent repeatability and specificity, good recovery in human serum samples. The two output signals of one sample achieve self-calibration of the results, effectively avoiding the occurrence of possible leakage and misdiagnosis of a single detection signal, suggesting that it will be a promising method in the early biomarker detection.

The weak interaction between the basalt fiber (BF) and acrylonitrile-butadiene rubber (NBR) weakens the BFs' effects on improving the tribological performances of the NBR composites. To solve this problem, (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane (APTES) was introduced via mixing into the matrix or grafting on the BF surface, respectively. The characteristics, mechanical, and tribological properties of the composites were evaluated, and the effects of the APTES and its introduction methods on the tribological properties were the main focus. The APTES mixed in the rubber matrix decreased the friction coefficient (COF) of the NBR-based composites under both dry friction and water-lubricated conditions. Especially, the APTES hydrolysis under water-lubricated condition was conducive to the formation of the water film and thus dramatically decreased the COF. The COF of the BF0-A3 and the BF12-A3 were 51% and 30% lower than that of the BF0-A0 and the BF12-A0 under water lubrication, respectively. The APTES grafted on the BF surface increased the wear resistance of the BF/NBR composites attributed to the improvement of the interaction between the BFs and the NBR matrix. © 2019 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Human adenovirus (HAdV) infection is a major cause of respiratory disease, yet no antiviral drugs have been approved for its treatment. Herein, we evaluated the antiviral and anti-inflammatory effects of cyclin-dependent protein kinase (CDK) inhibitor indirubin-3′-monoxime (IM) against HAdV infection in cells and a transgenic mouse model. After evaluating its cytotoxicity, cytopathic effect reduction, antiviral replication kinetics, and viral yield reduction assays were performed to assess the anti-HAdV activity of IM. Quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (qPCR), quantitative reverse transcription PCR (qRT-PCR), and western blotting were used to assess the effects of IM on HAdV DNA replication, transcription, and protein expression, respectively. IM significantly inhibited HAdV DNA replication as well as E1A and Hexon transcription, in addition to significantly suppressing the phosphorylation of the RNA polymerase II C-terminal domain (CTD). IM mitigated body weight loss, reduced viral burden, and lung injury, decreasing cytokine and chemokine secretion to a greater extent than cidofovir. Altogether, IM inhibits HAdV replication by downregulating CTD phosphorylation to suppress viral infection and corresponding innate immune reactions as a promising therapeutic agent.

A sensitive simultaneous electroanalysis of phytohormones indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and salicylic acid (SA) based on a novel copper nanoparticles-chitosan film-carbon nanoparticles-multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CuNPs-CSF-CNPs-MWCNTs) composite was reported. CNPs were prepared by hydrothermal reaction of chitosan. Then the CuNPs-CSF-CNPs-MWCNTs composite was facilely prepared by one-step co-electrodeposition of CuNPs and CNPs fixed chitosan residues on modified electrode. Scanning electron microscope (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), selected area electron diffraction (SAED), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), cyclic voltammetry (CV), electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) were used to characterize the properties of the composite. Under optimal conditions, the composite modified electrode had a good linear relationship with IAA in the range of 0.01–50 μM, and a good linear relationship with SA in the range of 4–30 μM. The detection limits were 0.0086 μM and 0.7 μM (S/N= 3), respectively. In addition, the sensor could also be used for the simultaneous detection of IAA and SA in real leaf samples with satisfactory recovery.

Tumor cell-endothelial adhesion is one of the key steps in tumor cell haematogenous dissemination in metastasis and was previously shown to be mediated by interaction of galectin-3 with the transmembrane mucin protein MUC1. In this study, the effect of exogenous as well as endogenous galectin-3 on adhesion of two cell lines (low MUC1-expressing human prostate cancer PC-3M cells and non-small-cell lung cancer A549 cells) to monolayer of umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) was investigated. We found that suppression of endogenous galectin-3 expression reduced tumor cell adhesion to HUVECs and also decreased cell invasion and migration. Exogenous galectin-3 promoted tumor cell adhesion to HUVECs by entering cells. Both exogenous and endogenous galectin-3 upregulated the expression of β-catenin and increased β-catenin nuclear accumulation, and subsequently upregulated the expression of N-cadherin and CD44. We deduced that both exogenous as well as endogenous galectin-3 promoted low MUC1-expressing cancer cell adhesion to HUVECs by increasing the expression of N-cadherin and CD44 via an increase of nuclear β-catenin accumulation. These results were confirmed further by using a β-catenin/TCF transcriptional activity inhibitor, N-cadherin or CD44 siRNAs. Taken together, our results suggest a new molecular mechanism of galectin-3-mediated cell adhesion in cancer metastasis.

Diode lasers, especially 405 nm diode laser, as excitation sources offer new opportunities for laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) detection, but the lack of available derivatization reagents limits their widespread applications. Herein, a commercial fluorescent dye , 7-(diethylamino)coumarin-3-carboxylic acid (DEAC-C) was introduced as derivatization reagent and corresponding derivatization strategy for DEAC-C labeling sulfonamides was developed for 405 nm LIF detection. After systematic optimization, three sulfonamides including hydrochlorothiazide (HCTZ), chlorothiazide (CTZ) and chlortalidone (CTD) could be efficiently labeled by DEAC-C in the presence of cyanuric chloride and triethylamine (1.5%) in acetonitrile at 50 °C for 180 min. Based on the laboratory-built capillary electrophoresis-LIF system, a robust method was then proposed for the separation of DEAC-C labeled sulfonamides by micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) using the classic borax-SDS system. Under the optimized conditions, a baseline separation of three sulfonamides was achieved within 15 min, and the detection limits were determined to be 0.24, 0.29, and 0.23 nM for HCTZ, CTZ, and CTD, respectively. Furthermore, the developed MEKC-LIF method was validated using sulfonamide standards and spiked human urine sample and successfully applied for the analysis of three sulfonamides in complex pharmaceutical and physiological samples.
