Biomass is the most abundant renewable resource on earth and developing high-performance nonprecious selective hydrogenation (SH) catalysts will enable the use of biomass to replace rapidly diminishing fossil resources. This work utilizes ZIF-67-derived nitrogen-doped carbon nanotubes to confine Co nanoparticles (NPs) with Co–N x active sites as a high-performance SH catalyst. The confined Co NPs with Co–N x exhibit excellent catalytic activity, selectivity, and stability toward a wide range of biomass-derived compounds. Such active sites can selectively hydrogenate aldehyde, ketone, carboxyl, and nitro groups of biomass-derived compounds into value-added fine chemicals with 100% selectivity. The reported approach could be adopted to create other forms of catalytically active sites from other nonprecious metals.

Pure and 1–4 mol% cobalt doped indium oxide (Co-doped In2O3) sponge-like microstructures with high specific surface area were fabricated by a simple and environmentally friendly hydrothermal method. The specific surface area and porosity of Co-doped sponge-like In2O3 microstructures can be regulated through the modulation of Co/In molar ratios. The as-prepared sensors based on Co-doped In2O3 exhibit favorable gas sensing properties toward acetone gas; their porous structure can create more adsorption sites for the adsorption of oxygen molecules and the diffusion of the target gas, leading to significant improvement in sensing performance. In particular, 3 mol% Co-doped In2O3 presents the greatest response to acetone vapor at 240 °C, which is about 3.25 times higher than that of pure In2O3. The sensor also exhibits rapid response-recovery time (1.143 s/37.5 s), low detection limit (2.76 at 5 ppm), good reproducibility and high selectivity, making it a promising material for acetone detection.

A redox prodrug consisting of camptothecin-conjugating PEG through the diselenide bond was synthesized, and the resultant amphiphilic prodrug was then used to load the curcumin to form the co-delivery system for the synergetic B16 melanoma cells inhibition. The co-delivery system showed a good response to glutataione, and the prodrug could be degraded and the two loaded drugs were then released. Both camptothecin and curcumin could induce the obvious cytotoxicity to B16 melanoma cells. Particularly, the co-delivery strategy showed a synergetic inhibition effect to B16 melanoma cells through an in vitro assay. In vivo assay also showed that the co-delivery system could inhibit B16 tumor growth and showed much better inhibition effect than that of only camptothecin or curcumin used. Moreover, as an injectable drug delivery system, the biocompatibility including the blood compatibility of the co-delivery system was confirmed, suggesting that the redox co-delivery system have a potential application in B16 tumor therapy.

A sensitive fluorescent analytical method for the detection of dopamine (DA) was developed based on surface-enhanced Tb(III)/La(III) co-luminescence using silver nanoflowers (AgNFs). Anisotropic AgNFs show strong surface-enhanced fluorescence effect owing to the abundant sharp tips. Tb(III)/La(III)-DA complexes mainly bind to the sharp tips of AgNFs and thus shorten the distance between the complexes. The shortened distance gives rise to obvious surface-enhanced Tb(III)/La(III) co-luminescence effect. In this work, AgNFs offer many superior properties, such as enhanced intrinsic green fluorescence of Tb(III) ( λ ex / λ em = 310/546 nm), increased fluorescence lifetime, and improved energy transfer efficiency. Under the optimum conditions, the fluorescence intensity is linearly correlated with the concentration of DA in the range of 0.80–10 nM ( R 2 = 0.9970), and the detection limit is 0.34 nM ( S/N = 3). The fluorescent nanoprobe was successfully applied to the determination of DA in human serum samples with recoveries ranging from 99.1 to 102.6%.

Nanozymes’ activities could be regulated by a simple and effective pH change in an in situ manner. In this work, for the first time, the peroxidase-like activity of Ni/Co layered double hydroxides (LDHs) was regulated via the alkaline-promoted reaction of fluorogenic substrate homovanillic acid and H 2 O 2 , and a promising tool for pH sensing was developed over the pH range of 8.3–9.6. As peroxidase nanozyme model, Ni/Co LDHs showed ease of preparation, low-cost, and water-solubility, which played an important role in this luminescence system. Based on the pH-dependent regulation of the Ni/Co LDHs activity, we constructed the bioassay platform for the determination urea, urease, penicillin G, and penicillinase with a wide linear range of 17–1000 µM, 3.3–270 mU mL −1 , 3.3–1300 µM and 3.3–100 mU mL −1 , respectively. This study not only demonstrated the alkaline-promoted modulation the nanozymes’ activities, but also established a facile approach to develop novel bioassays.

The development of highly efficient electrocatalysts with low cost for oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) is urgently required for metal-air batteries and fuel cells. In this work, Fe Co/MIL-101(Cr) with various molar ratios of Fe/Co as hybrid catalysts was prepared by a facile and mild impregnation method. MIL-101(Cr) increased the specific surface areas of the hybrid catalysts, thus improving the dispersion of Fe and Co species at their surfaces. The effects of Fe and Co species on ORR activity of the hybrid catalysts were investigated. It is found that the synergistic effects between the well-dispersed Fe and Co species contribute mainly to ORR activity. More specifically, Fe species exert a partial-charge-transfer-activation effect on Co ones, which reduces the charge transfer resistance and thus improves the catalytic activity . As a result, Fe Co/MIL-101(Cr) showed the excellent ORR activity, in which Co 50 Fe 50 /MIL-101(Cr) exhibited the superior ORR activity to the other prepared hybrid catalysts.

In this study, we successfully synthesized polyethylene glycol (PEG) and folic acid (FA) co-functionalized graphene quantum dots (GQDs) to improve the biocompatibility and tumor-targeting ability of GQDs simultaneously, and labeled GQDs–PEG–FA with 131 I for biological behavior evaluation. The in vitro properties, biodistribution and SPECT imaging of 131 I-GQDs–PEG–FA were investigated. The uptake of 131 I-GQDs–PEG–FA at tumor sites can be clearly examined via SPECT imaging, which can ascribe to enhanced permeability and retention effect and active targeting effect of FA to folate receptors. The results indicate that 131 I-GQDs–PEG–FA can be used as a radioactive probe for detection of tumor cells overexpressing folate receptor.

It is generally accepted that matrix pores in the hollow glass microspheres (HGMs)/resin-based composites prepared using stir-casting method (SCM) seriously affect its performance. In this paper, HGMs preforms were prepared using sintering method, and co-continuous HGMs/epoxy resin syntactic foams were prepared using vacuum resin transfer molding (VARTM) method. In order to compare how preparation method affects properties of the composites, the same volume fraction of HGMs filled epoxy resin composites was prepared by SCM. The effects of preparation methods on microstructure, density, compression properties and water absorption of composites were investigated. Compression deformation mechanism of the composites prepared by two methods is discussed. Syntactic foam with the same HGMs volume fraction contained different porosity depending on the preparation method. Porosity of the matrix in the composite prepared using SCM was ∼10 vol.%, while the densities of composites prepared by VARTM were close to the theoretical density, indicating no matrix pores. Co-continuous HGMs/epoxy resin syntactic foams prepared using VARTM showed properties superior to syntactic foams prepared by SCM: compressive strength increase by 45.31%, compressive modulus increase by 37.63%, and water absorption decrease by 69.91%. All these properties improved mainly because of the elimination of the matrix pores.

In this work, a novel catalyst of oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) was designed and fabricated by electrospinning, photo-curing and carbonization, based on polymer poly(dimethylsilylene ethynylenephenyleneethynylene) (PMSEPE) and metal organic frameworks (MOFs)—Materiaux de l'Institute Lavosier-101(Fe) (MIL-101(Fe)). The optimal catalyst PMSEPE/MIL-101(Fe)-800, which was carbonized at 800 °C, presented a bamboo-like nanofiber structure with a high degree of graphitization, a high specific surface area (302.3 m 2 /g) and a high yield (64.17%). Fe 3 C particles were found to be encapsulated into the Fe-Si-N co-doped carbon nanofibers. In the electrochemical tests, PMSEPE/MIL-101(Fe)-800 showed an onset potential of 0.935 V ( vs . RHE) and a diffusion limit current of 6.01 mA/cm 2 ( vs . RHE) in 0.1 M KOH aqueous solution, of which performances are competitive to commercial 20 wt% Pt/C. PMSEPE/MIL-101(Fe)-800 also exhibited a higher methanol tolerance and duration stability. Further Zn-air battery test used by PMSEPE/MIL-101(Fe)-800 suggested its potential for the application of fuel cell.

Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 was co-decorated by β-phase AgI and Bi 2 O 3 forming visible-light-active AgI(β)/Bi 2 O 3 (β)-Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 composite via simply calcining AgI/Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 . The calcination temperature and time played vital role in regulating the structure as well as photocatalytic performance. Optimal AgI(β)/Bi 2 O 3 (β)-Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 was obtained after 325 ◦ C calcination for 2 h with 5% AgI. The ratio of Bi 2 O 3 to Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 was estimated to be ca. 3:1 on the catalyst surface. The transformation process for n -type Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 to p-type Bi 2 O 3 (β) was monitored and verified by flat band potential measurements. Due to the presence of p-n junctions between p-type Bi 2 O 3 (β), n -type AgI(β) and Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 , the optimized ternary composite displayed enhanced photocurrent density and reduced charge transfer resistance, which were beneficial for photocatalytic applications. Despite of decreased specific surface area, dramatically enhanced photocatalytic performance can be observed for simultaneous removal of Cr(VI) and phenol . For example, the estimated k Cr(VI) and k phenol on AgI(β)/Bi 2 O 3 (β)-Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 were 3.3 and 2.2 times relative to those on uncalcined AgI/Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 , respectively. The optimized composite also displayed good stability in 4 successive cyclic runs.

Tailoring the morphology and composition of Pt-based nanostructures is crucial to design high-performance electrocatalysts for direct methanol fuel cells. In this work, we propose a facile strategy to fabricate one-dimensional PtM (M = Co, Ni) mesoporous nanotubes (PtM MNTs), in which F127 and Te nanowires facilitate the formation of mesoporous exteriors and cannular interiors, respectively. Owing to the structural advantages of bimetallic mesoporous nanotube architectonics, the PtM MNTs exhibit superior electrochemical performance for the oxygen reduction reaction and methanol oxidation reaction. The proposed dual-template strategy is highly promising for designing active Pt-based mesoporous nanotubes with desired composition toward various electrocatalytic fields.

Electrospun polymer scaffolds are regarded as an ideal tissue engineering scaffold due to similar morphological properties with the native extracellular matrix. Among these, polycaprolactone is widely used to fabricate electrospun fibrous scaffolds due to its excellent biocompatibility, good mechanical properties, and ease of manufacture. However, its low biodegradation rate has a negative influence on its application in tissue engineering scaffold. To address this issue, this study prepared hybrid scaffolds composed of polycaprolactone and polydioxanone (a fast-degrading polyether-ester) via either the blend or co-electrospinning. Subsequently, the structural characteristics, mechanical strength, in vitro/vivo degradation, cellularization, and vascularization of two kinds of hybrid scaffolds were evaluated to decide which method is more suitable for producing tissue engineering scaffolds. The incorporation of polydioxanone increased the mechanical strength of both composite scaffolds. Moreover, co-electrospun scaffolds exhibited improved hydrophilicity compared to blend scaffolds. The results of in vitro and in vivo degradation studies showed that the degradation rate of both composite scaffolds was faster than that of neat polycaprolactone scaffolds due to the incorporated polydioxanone component. Especially in co-electrospun scaffolds, the fast degradation of polydioxanone fiber gave rise to larger pore size, thus leading to faster cellularization and better vascularization compared to blend scaffolds. Therefore, co-electrospinning was demonstrated to be superior to blend electrospinning for the preparation of composite scaffolds. Co-electrospun polycaprolactone–polydioxanone scaffolds may be promising candidates for tissue engineering.
