Fe/Ti co-doping converts the P2 phase to the OP4 phase and suppresses the undesirable P2-O2 phase transition. • Fe/Ti co-doping breaks the Na + /vacancy ordering and improves sodium ion transport capability. • Ti doping can shorten the TM-O bonds and lengthen the Na-O bonds. P2-type Na 2/3 Ni 1/3 Mn 2/3 O 2 is regarded as a promising cathode material for sodium-ion batteries owing to its high specific capacity and low cost. Nevertheless, its practical application is hindered by irreversible structural degradation and rapid capacity decay associated with the detrimental P2–O2 phase transition during deep Na + extraction. In this work, Fe and Ti are co-incorporated into Na 2/3 Ni 1/3 Mn 2/3 O 2 via a sol-gel method to enhance structural stability. Rietveld refinement of X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns indicates that Ti doping shortens TM–O bonds and enlarges Na + diffusion channels by increasing Na-O distances, thereby enhancing structural stability and Na + transport kinetics. In situ XRD analyses reveal that Fe/Ti co-doping regulates the phase transition pathway from the irreversible P2–O2 phase transition to a reversible P2–OP4 phase transition, effectively mitigating structural degradation during cycling. Electrochemical measurements demonstrate that optimized Fe/Ti co-doping enhances the overall electrochemical performance. The optimized composition, Na 2/3 Ni 1/4 Fe 1/12 Mn 7/12 Ti 1/12 O 2 , exhibits excellent cycling stability with a capacity retention of 82.33% after 50 cycles at 0.2 C, and delivers a specific capacity of 61.43 mA h g −1 at a high rate of 5 C. This study demonstrates that the combination of sol-gel synthesis and co-doping engineering provides an effective strategy for designing high-performance cathode materials for sodium-ion batteries.

Tunability of emitting colors of perovskite quantum dots (PQDs) was generally realized via composition/size modulation. Due to their bandgap absorption and ionic crystal features, the mixing of multiple PQDs inevitably suffers from reabsorption and anion-exchange effects. Herein, we address these issues with high-content Mn2+-doped CsPbCl3 PQDs that can yield blue-excitable orange Mn2+ emission benefited from exciton-to-Mn energy transfer and Cl-to-Br anion exchange. Silica-coating was applied to improve air stability of PQDs, suppress the loss of Mn2+, and avoid anion-exchange between different PQDs. As a direct benefit of intense multicolor emissions from Mn2+-doped PQD@SiO2 solid phosphors, a prototype white light-emitting diode with excellent optical performance and superior light stability was constructed using green CsPbBr3@SiO2 and orange Mn: CsPb(Cl/Br)3@SiO2 composites as color converters, verifying their potential applications in the field of optoelectronics.

Developing a secure and unclonable anti-counterfeiting technology with more dimensional encryptions is urgently demanded. All-inorganic halide perovskites hold great potential for applications in advanced fluorescence anti-counterfeiting owing to their superior optical properties, such as tunable emission colors, narrow emission peaks, etc. By further utilizing the feasibility of anion exchange for perovskite halides, this research successfully designs five-dimensional (5D) anti-counterfeiting barcodes with core–shell-like structured perovskite-like oxide and perovskite halide composites. The composites are prepared by a facile synthesis method, which includes adhesive growth of Cs(Pb x Mn 1-x )(Cl y Br 1-y ) 3 on the surface of CsCa 2 Ta 3 O 10 : Yb, Er (abbreviated as CCTO: Yb, Er@CsMX 3 ) via sharing Cs + at the interface. The unique structure makes it possess sensitivity to some additive decrypted inks, offering one more intriguing anti-counterfeiting dimension beyond the common dual-mode fluorescence and time-gating technique. The CCTO: Yb, Er@CsMX 3 composites exhibit typical green upconversion (UC) luminescence under a 980 nm laser, red or green or blue (RGB) emission under ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation, ns-ms emission decay time, and changeable emission color when treated with decrypted inks. The fluorescent inks and barcodes are simple for fabrication, efficient for coding, easy for viewing and difficult for cloning, making them promising for anti-counterfeiting applications.

All-solid-state lithium metal batteries (ASSLMBs) are considered the most competitive next-generation energy storage batteries due to their high energy density and high safety. Polyethylene oxide (PEO) is an ideal solid-state electrolyte due to its high chain flexibility, high dielectric constant, and strong dissociation ability towards lithium salts. However, the application of PEO is severely hindered by drawbacks such as low ion conductivity at room temperature and low electrochemical window. In this work, we constructed a Li1.25Al0.25Zr1.75(PO4)3 (LAZP)/PEO composite solid-state electrolyte (CSSE) with improved ion conductivity, enlarged electrochemical window, and stable charge–discharge cycle performance. The CSSE leads to an obvious LiF layer and Li2CO3 formation at the interface of lithium metal. Meanwhile, the addition of LAZP reduces the side reaction between PEO and the lithium metal significantly and suppresses the deterioration of ion conductivity. In addition, we modified LiFePO4 (M-LFP), the cathode sheet of the ASSLMBs, by adding an appropriate proportion of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs), PEO and lithium bis(trifluoromethane sulfonimide) (LiTFSI) to improve the ionic and electronic conductivity inside the cathode of the ASSLMBs. The Li/CSSE/M-LFP full cell exhibits a specific discharge capacity of 152 mA h g−1 at 60 °C and 2 C rate and a capacity retention rate of 93.5% after 200 cycles at 1 C. This work demonstrates an effective strategy for increasing the specific capacity, rate ability and long-cycle performance of ASSLMBs.

Microplastics derived from plastic waste have emerged as a pervasive environmental pollutant with potential transfer and accumulation through the food chain, thus posing risks to both ecosystems and human health. The gut microbiota, tightly intertwined with metabolic processes, exert substantial influences on host physiology by utilizing dietary compounds and generating bacterial metabolites such as tryptophan and bile acid. Our previous studies have demonstrated that exposure to microplastic polystyrene (PS) disrupts the gut microbiota and induces colonic inflammation. Meanwhile, intervention with cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (C3G), a natural anthocyanin derived from red bayberry, could mitigate colonic inflammation by reshaping the gut bacterial composition. Despite these findings, the specific influence of gut bacteria and their metabolites on alleviating colonic inflammation through C3G intervention remains incompletely elucidated. Therefore, employing a C57BL/6 mouse model, this study aims to investigate the mechanisms underlying how C3G modulates gut bacteria and their metabolites to alleviate colonic inflammation. Notably, our findings demonstrated the efficacy of C3G in reversing the elevated levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines (IL-6, IL-1β, and TNF-α) and the upregulation of mRNA expression (Il-6, Il-1β, and Tnf-α) induced by PS exposure. Meanwhile, C3G effectively inhibited the reduction in levels (IL-22, IL-10, and IL-4) and the downregulation of mRNA expression (Il-22, Il-10, and Il-4) of anti-inflammatory cytokines induced by PS exposure. Moreover, PS-induced phosphorylation of the transcription factor NF-κB in the nucleus, as well as the increased level of protein expression of iNOS and COX-2 in the colon, were inhibited by C3G. Metabolisms of gut bacterial tryptophan and bile acids have been extensively implicated in the regulation of inflammatory processes. The 16S rRNA high-throughput sequencing disclosed that PS treatment significantly increased the abundance of pro-inflammatory bacteria (Desulfovibrio, norank_f_Oscillospiraceae, Helicobacter, and Lachnoclostridium) while decreasing the abundance of anti-inflammatory bacteria (Dubosiella, Akkermansia, and Alistipes). Intriguingly, C3G intervention reversed these pro-inflammatory changes in bacterial abundances and augmented the enrichment of bacterial genes involved in tryptophan and bile acid metabolism pathways. Furthermore, untargeted metabolomic analysis revealed the notable upregulation of metabolites associated with tryptophan metabolism (shikimate, l-tryptophan, indole-3-lactic acid, and N-acetylserotonin) and bile acid metabolism (3b-hydroxy-5-cholenoic acid, chenodeoxycholate, taurine, and lithocholic acid) following C3G administration. Collectively, these findings shed new light on the protective effects of dietary C3G against PS exposure and underscore the involvement of specific gut bacterial metabolites in the amelioration of colonic inflammation.

Ethyl 3-hydroxy-3-phenylpropionate (EHPP), ( R )-EHPP or ( S )-EHPP, is an important chiral intermediate for pharmaceuticals. Its synthesis from ethyl benzoyl acetate (EBA) by alcohol dehydrogenase is regarded as a green method. However, scarcely any alcohol dehydrogenase has been reported competent in asymmetric synthesis of chiral EHPP at high EBA loading. Present study developed two robust and efficient bio-catalysts Mu-S2 and Mu-R4 for preparation of ( S )-EHPP and ( R )-EHPP respectively by rational design of alcohol dehydrogenase PcSDR from Pedobacter chitinilyticus based on molecular dynamics (MD) simulation analysis. BtGDH, a glucose dehydrogenase from Bacillus toyonensis catalyzing the oxidation of glucose for cofactor regeneration, was co-expressed with the screened mutants to form enzyme systems Mu-S2-BtGDH and Mu-R4-BtGDH. After reaction condition optimization, Mu-S2-BtGDH and Mu-R4-BtGDH were efficient in the synthesis of ( S )-EHPP (94% conv. and 99% e.e.) and ( R )-EHPP (99% conv. and 98% e.e. ) respectively in 100 mL scale under 500 mM of EBA loading in 10 h following a substrate continuous feeding mode. After purifying, the isolated yield for each EHPP enantiomer is > 93%. This work not only provides potential biocatalysts for the industrial production of ( R )-EHPP and ( S )-EHPP, but also enriches the constructure-function relationship of alcohol dehydrogenases.

Two new alkali metal formic-borates named Rb3(COOH)3(H3BO3)2 and Cs3(COOH)3(H3BO3)2 have been successfully synthesized under mild conditions. Influenced by the different cation sizes, these two stoichiometrically equivalent compounds reveal discrepant symmetries: Rb3(COOH)3(H3BO3)2 is noncentrosymmetric (NCS) while Cs3(COOH)3(H3BO3)2 is centrosymmetric (CS). Especially, these two title compounds exhibit unique planar [(COOH)3(H3BO3)2]3– layers constructed from two kinds of planar π-conjugated asymmetric BO3 and COOH units, which induce the large birefringence, 0.09@1064 nm for Rb3(COOH)3(H3BO3)2 and 0.10@1064 nm for Cs3(COOH)3(H3BO3)2, respectively. Optical property measurements indicate that these two compounds display short UV absorption edges, suggesting that they are promising short-wave UV birefringent materials. A detailed theoretical analysis confirmed that the excellent linear optical property was derived from the synergistic effect of the two kinds of π-conjugated planar groups.

Cr2O3nanoparticles were prepared by solution combustion synthesis (SCS) with chromium nitrate as the precursor and glycine as the fuel. Commercial Cr2O3and Cr2O3prepared by a precipitation method were also included for comparison. The morphology, structure, acidity and particle size of fresh and spent Cr2O3catalysts were investigated by techniques such as XRD, SEM, TEM, BET and NH3-TPD. In addition, catalytic performance was evaluated for the dehydrofluorination of 1,1,1,3,3-pentafluoropropane (CF3CH2CHF2, HFC-245fa) to 1,3,3,3-tetra-fluoropropene (CF3CH=CHF, HFO-1234ze). The catalytic reaction rate of Cr2O3prepared by SCS method is as high as 6 mmol/h/g, which is about 1.5 times and 2 times higher than that of precipitated Cr2O3and commercial Cr2O3, respectively. The selectivity to HFO-1234ze for all the catalysts maintains at about 80%. Compared with commercial and precipitated Cr2O3, Cr2O3-SCS prepared by SCS possesses higher specific surface area and acid amount. Furthermore, significant change in the crystal size of Cr2O3prepared by SCS after reaction was not detected, indicating high resistance to sintering.

The SiO2-Al2O3-BaF2-TiO2-CaF2 transparent silicate glass-ceramics containing BaF2 nanocrystals were successfully prepared by heat treatment process through conventional melting method. Effects of heat treatment processes and Yb3+ concentration on the downconversion (DC) emission of the co-doped Er3+/Yb3+ transparent silicate glass-ceramics were investigated. With the increase of temperatures and times of heat treatment process, the DC emission intensity of the co-doped Er3+/Yb3+ glass-ceramics was significantly enhanced. At the same time, with the increase of Yb3+ concentration, the value of DC intensity of Er3+/Yb3+ co-doped bands centered at 849, 883 and 1533 nm is maximized when the concentration of Yb3+ reaches 2.5 mol.%. When the concentration exceed 2.5 mol. %, the DC emission intensity of Er3+/Yb3+ co-doped bands centered at 849, 883 and 1533 nm was decreased, owing to the self-quenching effect. It’s interesting that the DC emission intensity of Er3+/Yb3+ co-doped band centered at 978 nm didn’t quench when the Yb3+ concentration exceed 2.5 mol. %. At the same time, the DC mechanism and ET processes between Yb3+ and Er3+ ions were discussed.

Huperzine A (HupA) is used in Alzheimer's disease (AD) therapy for its effective inhibition of acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and enhancement of cholinergic neuronal function. However, direct oral administration and injection of HupA cause side effects like nausea, anorexia, and rapid metabolism. Using a tripolymer, poly(3-hydroxybutyrate- co -3-hydroxyvalerate-co-3-hydroxyhexanoate (PBVHx), from the polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) family synthesized via synthetic biology, we present a novel AD therapy strategy with peritoneally administered PBVHx microspheres loaded with HupA (HupA-PBVHxMs). This approach extends HupA's metabolic duration in the blood and brain, enhancing AChE inhibition efficacy. Uniformly sized HupA-PBVHxMs, created using microfluidics and rotary evaporation, show up to 70.4 % drug encapsulation efficiency, sustained HupA release for 40 days, reduced neurotoxicity from Aβ25–35, and maintained in vivo HupA supply and AChE inhibition for over 20 days. In cognitive tests, HupA-PBVHxMs improved function in AD mice. Thus, PBVHx microspheres with slower HupA release and lower biotoxicity offer a superior platform for sustained AChE inhibitor release, outperforming commercial PLGA microspheres.

The Friedel-Crafts acylation reaction between 5-cyanoindole and 4-chlorobutyryl chloride was conducted in ionic liquid 1-buty-3-methylimidazolium chloroaluminate ([bmiCl/AlCl3), the major product was 5-cyano-3-(4-chlorobuty) indole. The structure of the product was characterized by Mass and 1H NMR spectra. When the molar ratio of AlCl3 to [bmiCl in [bmiCl/AlCl3 is at 1:1 or less, no 5-cyano-3-(4-chlorobuty) indole could be obtained. The suitable molar ratios of AlCl3 to [bmiCl in [bmiCl/AlCl3 were from 2:1 to 3:1, the yields of the major product were from 68% to 70%, respectively. When the molar ratio of [bmiCl/AlCl3 to 5-cyanoindole was less than 2:1, the acylation reaction was difficult to carry out, because 5-cyanoindole would be not totally dissolve in [bmiCl/AlCl3 under the situation.

A new luminescent europium(III) bis-β-diketonate complex, Eu 2 (PBT) 3 (NO 3 ) 3 (PBT = 1,1-(pyridine-2,6-diyl)bis(4,4,4-trifluoro-1,3-dione), was incorporated into the poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA) matrix and formed nanofibers via electrospinning technology. The different characterization techniques were adopted to reveal the effect of Eu 2 (PBT) 3 (NO 3 ) 3 on the spatial structure and optical properties of the nano-composite fibers obtained. The doping enhances the thermal stability and filament-forming properties for a series of PMMA-supported composite nanofibers Eu/PMMA, and in particular, the doping concentrations of 11 wt% also showed more efficient luminescence properties. Furthermore, the Judd-Ofelt theory was applied in this study to explain the effect of the distribution of Eu 2 (PBT) 3 (NO 3 ) 3 and the mutual effect of the Eu 2 (PBT) 3 (NO 3 ) 3 coordination compound and surrounding fractions of PMMA.
