This study utilized X-diffraction, BET, photoluminescence , UV–vis DRS, FTIR , SEM, XPS , TOC analysis, EPR , electrochemical measurements, and LC-MS to characterize the structural characteristics, morphology, optical properties , photocatalytic activity , surface electronic states, active compounds, and potential photodegradation pathways of rhodamine B (RhB) over as-prepared Bi 2 O 3. The as-prepared Bi 2 O 3 photocatalyst exhibited a narrow bandgap, which enabled efficient absorption of visible light, thereby contributing to its enhanced photocatalytic activity. Additionally, Bi 2 O 3 exhibited a high degradation efficiency for RhB. with up to 96.8 % of RhB removed within 120 min at pH 3.0. The excellent photocatalytic performance of Bi 2 O 3 can be attributed to the formation of the heterogeneous Bi 2 O 3 /BiOCl structure on the Bi 2 O 3 surface in the presence of HCl. Moreover, the TOC analysis revealed that over 58.1 % of the carbon in the RhB solution was mineralized into CO 2 after 120 min of irradiation. The effect of catalyst content, RhB concentration, initial pH, and inorganic anions on the photocatalytic degradation of RhB over Bi 2 O 3 was examined. Furthermore, the active compounds and potential photocatalytic mechanism of the Bi 2 O 3 /BiOCl heterogeneous structure toward RhB were evaluated. The intermediates formed during RhB degradation were identified, and the corresponding degradation pathway was deduced via LC-MS.

A magnetic shell-structured nano-catalyst was prepared by self-polymerization of dopamine wrapped by ferric oxide as the carrier, which was loaded with palladium nanoparticles (Pd/PDA@Fe3O4). The presence of magnetic Fe3O4made it easy for nanoscale palladium particles to recover and prevent the loss of palladium nanoparticles that is unavoidable in traditional usage and preparation procedures. The catalyst was characterized by X-ray diffraction, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, thermal weight loss analysis, Raman spectroscopy, X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy, and magnetic properties analysis. The catalytic performance of the prepared catalyst was investigated taking 4-nitrophenol (10 mg/L) and rhodamine B (15 mg/L) as the target pollutants. The results showed that under the conditions of 35 °C, pH = 7 and a catalyst dosage of 3 mg, the catalytic reduction efficiency of 4-nitrophenol, rhodamine B, and the mixture of them all can reach 99%. The catalytic efficiency of Pd/PDA@Fe3O4remained above 90% after being used 10 times. The shell structure of Fe3O4made it possible and easy to recover and recycle the nanoscale palladium, which was a real problem in the usage of nano-catalysts. At the same time, the problem of separation and recovery of palladium nano-catalyst is solved by magnetism, which provides research ideas for the recycling and utilization of nano-materials.

Rhodamine B hydrazide (RBH) was prepared as a new derivatizing reagent for residual formaldehyde in a drug such as N-butyl-2-cyanoacrylate (NBCA). RBH reacted with formaldehyde rapidly at room temperature, and the resulting derivative can be detected sensitively at 238 nm. After optimizing the derivatization and chromatographic separation conditions, RBH as a pre-column derivatizing reagent has been successfully used for the analysis of formaldehyde in real NBCA samples by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). The detection limit of the method is 0.004 μg/mL for formaldehyde, and the recovery is 94.0%-96.6%. Most notably, compared with the previous HPLC methods, the developed method has the advantages of mild derivatization temperature, short derivatization time and high sensitivity.

Heterogeneous catalytic oxidation based on iron species for peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation is considered as one of the most attractive strategies for wastewater treatment. However, the rate-limiting regeneration of Fe(II) from Fe(III) heavily hampers the efficient activation of PMS. In this study, the introduction of electric field to the Fe-supported bentonite (Fe-B) activated PMS process was proposed to enhance the Fe(III)/Fe(II) redox cycle. The Fe-B catalyst performed well in the removal of Acid Orange 7 (AO7) through the synergistic effect of electrolysis and the continuous redox cycle of Fe(III)/Fe(II) for PMS activation. The use of 0.5 g L −1 Fe-B catalyst and 10 mM PMS yielded nearly complete removal of the AO7 (50 mg L −1 ) in 60 min at 2 mA cm −2 of current density. Based on the results of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy, chemical quenching tests, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis, and electrochemical measurements, the decolorization of AO7 was dominantly attributed to surface-bound radicals (SO 4 •− ads and • OH ads ) and also the direct electron transfer at DSA anode. Moreover, the electro/Fe-B/PMS system showed an effective pH range from 2.6 to 9.0 and the abatement of AO7 was slightly affected in the presence of natural background anions. This work provides a feasible strategy of PMS activation by cost-effective Fe-B catalyst coupling with electric field and gives an insight into the accelerated oxidation of recalcitrant pollutants.

In this study, the performance of low-temperature sintered Bi-B-Si-Zn-Al glass/SiC composites by vacuum hot-press sintering between 700°C and 1000°C was investigated. The specimen had a relatively preferable density of 95.5% and thermal conductivity of 8.660 Wm−1K−1 after sintering at 900°C for 2 h. The dielectric constant and dielectric loss tangle of the composite were 32.9 and 0.57 at 20 GHz, respectively. The XRD analysis indicated the formation of Bi, Zn and ZnAl2O4 crystals, and the microstructure showed the low contact angle of the glass and SiC grain. Such low-temperature sintered SiC ceramic may have a promising application in the electronic field.

In this work, a simple, rapid and sensitive analytical method for the determination of rhodamine B in chili-containing foodstuffs is described. The dye is extracted from samples with methanol and analysed without further cleanup procedure by high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) coupled to fluorescence detection (FLD). The influence of matrix fluorescent compounds (capsaicin and dihydrocapsaicin) on the analysis was overcome by the optimisation of mobile-phase composition. The limit of determination (LOD) and limit of quantification (LOQ) were 3.7 and 10 μg/kg, respectively. Validation data show a good repeatability and within-lab reproducibility with relative standard deviations <10%. The overall recoveries are in the range of 98–103% in chili powder and in the range of 87–100% in chili oil depending on the concentration of rhodamine B in foodstuffs. This method is suitable for the routine analysis of rhodamine B due to its sensitivity, simplicity, reasonable time and cost.

We demonstrate a new semiconducting polymer dot: the poly(o-phenylenediamine)–Rhodamine B copolymer dot (Pp–RhB dot), which emits in the red wavelength range. The Pp–RhB dots can be used as an ultrasensitive fluorescence probe for NO2−in vivo and show high selectivity and ultrasensitivity (detection limit: 2.0 × 10−11 M) for NO2−. The fluorescence of Pp–RhB dots is decreased (φ = 0.014) as a result of fast photoinduced electron transfer (PET) between the modulator (poly(o-phenylenediamine)) and the transducer (RhB), but the N–NO2 bonding mode prevents PET, causing the fluorescence emission to be enhanced (φ = 0.92). This probe effectively avoids the influence of auto-fluorescence in biological systems and gave positive results when tested in both aqueous solution and living cells.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) incidence is rising with no effective treatments. Eleutheroside B (EB) has neuroprotective potential, but its therapeutic effects and mechanisms in AD are unclear. This study investigated EB's effects on AD pathologies and elucidated its underlying mechanisms using a transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans ( C. elegans ) model. We found that EB could ameliorate cognitive impairment, locomotor dysfunction, and shortened lifespan induced by amyloid-β(Aβ) and Tau aggregation in C. elegans , and reduce the relative expression levels of Aβ, Tau, and phosphorylated Tau (p-Tau) proteins. EB significantly improved the health status and anti-aging capacity of the worms, as evidenced by prolonged healthspan, elevated pharyngeal pumping rate and body bend frequency, and increased body length and width. Notably, EB exhibited no observable toxicity even at high-dose administration. Furthermore, EB activated key antioxidant transcription factors skn-1 , daf-16 , and hsf-1 ; it also increased the expression levels of antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase-3(SOD-3) and glutathione S-transferase 4(GST-4), decreased reactive oxygen species (ROS) levels, and elevated the expression of heat shock proteins Hsp-4 and Hsp-6. EB also reduced the accumulation of p62/SQST-1 protein, promoted the colocalization of lgg-1::GFP with lysosomes, and increased the relative mRNA expression of autophagy-related genes aak-2 , unc-51 , bec-1 , vps-34 , and lgg-1 . After targeted knockdown of these genes, the protective effects of EB against AD-related pathologies were abolished. Our findings demonstrate that EB exhibits anti-aging properties and potential for ameliorating AD, which is likely mediated via antioxidative activities and autophagy induction.

Breast cancer is a significant threat to life and health, which needs more safe and effective drugs to be explored. Teadenol B is a characteristic chemical component of microbial fermented tea. This study discovered that teadenol B could exhibit obvious inhibitory effects on all four different clinical subtype characteristics of breast cancer cells. Proteomic studies show that deoxycytidine triphosphate deaminase (DCTD), which could block DNA synthesis and repair DNA damage, had the most significant and consistent reduction in all four types of breast cancer cells with the treatment of teadenol B. Considering MDA-MB-231 cells exhibit poor clinical prognosis and displayed substantial statistical differences in KEGG pathway enrichment analysis results, we investigated its impact on the size and growth of MDA-MB-231 triple-negative breast tumors transplanted into nude mice and demonstrated that teadenol B significantly suppressed tumor growth without affecting body weight significantly. Finally, we found that the conversion of LC3-I to LC3-II in MDA-MB-231 increased significantly with teadenol B treatment. This proved that teadenol B could be a strong autophagy promotor, which explained the down-regulation of DCTD to some extent and may be the potential mechanism underlying teadenol B’s anti-breast cancer effects. This finding provides new evidence for drinking fermented tea to prevent breast cancer and highlights the potential of teadenol B as a novel therapeutic option for breast cancer prevention and treatment, necessitating further investigations to clarify its exact target and the details involved.Keywords:teadenol B;breast cancer;autophagy

How to improve the issues of ion agglomeration and metal ion leaching, and how to prepare cobalt-based catalysts with high reactivity and stability, are highly desired yet challenging. In this paper, MoS 2 modified Co-MOF derived nitrogen-doped carbon (Co/PCN/MoS 2 ) microspheres rich in active sites were prepared using a simple carbonation-hydrothermal method, with g-C 3 N 4 , MoS 2 and Co-MOF to overcome the aforementioned limitations. The flower-like nanostructure of MoS 2 contributed to exposing more marginal active sites, allowing the high dispersion of Co-MOF within its structure. Meanwhile, Mo 4+ /Mo 6+ and S species coexisted in MoS 2 , which promoted the valence cycle and electron transfer process, and improved the catalytic activity of the composite. The successful synthesis of Co/PCN/MoS 2 was proved by XRD , SEM and FTIR characterizations. The electrochemical performance analysis showed that Co/PCN/MoS 2 exhibited higher redox capacity than MoS 2 , and Co/PCN/MoS 2 /PMS system achieved the degradation rate of RhB as high as 97.19% within 30 min, which is higher than that of Co-MOF/g-C 3 N 4 /PMS (80.67%), Co-MOF/MoS 2 /PMS (78.08%), Co-MOF/PMS (77.00%), g-C 3 N 4 /PMS (53.68%) and MoS 2 /PMS (28.10%) systems. It had good anti-interference ability against coexisting substances, achieved good degradation performance in a wide pH range (pH 2.0–10.0), and possessed excellent stability and reusability with RhB degradation rate of 91.10% after 5 cycles. The quenching test confirmed that non free radical 1 O 2 is the main ROS for RhB degradation. This work is expected to provide a new idea and direction for the design and development of metal-doped heterogeneous catalysts with high activity and stability.

This paper reported a simple, sensitive and environmental-friendly packed nanofiber-based solid phase extraction (PFSPE) technique for the extraction of eight water-soluble B-complex vitamins from infant formula products. The developed PFSPE technique used core/sheath polystyrene/polypyrrole (PS/PPy) nanofibers as adsorbents, and the process involved boric acid compound as complexing reagent which formed conjugated compounds with targets. The PS/PPy nanofibers were prepared in situ polymerization of PPy on the surface of PS nanofibers fabricated by electrospinning. Pretreated samples were analyzed with High Performance Liquid Chromatography coupled with UV Detector system (HPLC–UV). Method validation obtained the intra- precision at 0.6–17.1% and inter-day precision at 0.9–18.2%, respectively, the limits of detection between 0.25 and 0.9 μg g −1 , and the linear range of the calibration curves at 0.25–250 μg g −1 , and relative recoveries from 76.3 to 126.0%.

TiO 2 (B) nanosheets/GO (graphene oxide) hybrids are considered to be outstanding performance photocatalysts for high efficiency of H 2 evolution. However, they still suffer severe challenges during the synthetic processes, such as a large amount of the capping agents adhering on the surface and easy occurrence of aggregation. To figure out these obstacles, Ar plasma treatment as a modified method in this study not only enable the TiO 2 (B) nanosheets distributed uniformly on the GO sheets but also engineer defects within TiO 2 (B) nanosheets to significantly improve the photocatalytic activity for the water splitting. The hydrogen evolution rate of the TiO 2- x (B)/GO sheets is 1.4 times higher compared with that of original TiO 2 (B)/GO sheets without Ar plasma treatment. The improved photocatalytic properties were owing to the synergetic effects of oxygen vacancies and the heterojunction between GO and TiO 2 (B), which can promote the visible light utilization and accelerate separation and transportation of photogenerated electron-holes. This study can provide a facile pathway to prepare the two-dimensional hybrid photocatalysts with high photocatalytic H 2 activity.
