Irradiation technology has been shown to be a possible preservation technology used to prolong the shelf life and provide microbial decontamination of spices. In this study, the molecular mechanisms of the irradiation-induced accumulation of polyphenols in star anise were explored using metabolomics combined with ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography quadrupole-Orbitrap (UHPLC-Q-Orbitrap) high-resolution mass spectrometry. Fifty-six star anise samples from different areas processed with 2–10 kGy doses of irradiation were compared. The effect of post irradiation storage times ranging from 0 to 70 days was also evaluated. A total of 161 metabolites with variable importance on projection greater than 1 were characterized, and significant differences in flavonoid content in star anise were observed after irradiation. Absolute quantification was used for the quantification of distinctive compounds, and the limit of quantitation of the components was 1.90–6.53 μg/kg. The flavonoid content was stable on the 28th day of storage. The average content of flavonoids increased by 2–9 times due to the breaking of glycoside bonds in star anise by irradiation. C 15 H 11 O 7 + m/z 303.13045 and C 3 H 3 O 2 + m/z 71.01276 were defined as the characteristic fragments of flavonoids according to the mechanism of fragmentation. Checking the extraction ion chromatogram (EIC) characteristic fragments allows straightforward screening of untargeted flavonoids.

A novel PDA-BN@f-Al 2 O 3 nanohybrid was synthesized by depositing Al 2 O 3 nanoparticles modified with γ -Aminopropyltriethoxysilane (KH550) on the surface of hexagonal boron-nitride (h-BN) sheets covered with polydopamine (PDA). Then, PDA-BN@f-Al 2 O 3 hybrids was dispersed in epoxy resin to prepare composite coating samples. Many characterizations revealed that the functionalized Al 2 O 3 successfully deposited on the surface of PDA-BN platelets and PDA-BN@f-Al 2 O 3 hybrids showed good dispersibility in the epoxy resin, and the interfacial adhesion between hybrids and epoxy matrix was improved. Furthermore, the effects of Al 2 O 3 , h-BN and various mixtures of PDA-BN@f-Al 2 O 3 hybrids at a low weight fraction of 1 % on the corrosion resistance of epoxy coating were studied by electrochemical measurement and salt spray test. The potentiodynamic polarization test revealed that PDA-BN@f-Al 2 O 3 hybrids have a corrosion inhibitive performance. Moreover, the coating resistance of PDA-BN@f-Al 2 O 3 (3:1)/epoxy was enhanced by three orders of magnitude compared with neat epoxy after 5 d immersion. This study provides a promising application prospect for the development of superior metal protective organic coatings.

A novel fluorescent biosensor based on dabcyl [(E)-4-((4-(dimethylamino) phenyl) diazenyl)benzoic acid] -modified anti-Mb aptamer (D-AMA) and 6-FAM(6-carboxyfluorescein) -modified complementary short chain (F-CSC)for the specific and sensitive detection of Mb levels is presented in this study. In PBS buffer solution, D-AMA bound to F-CSC, and then dabcyl quenched the fluorescence of 6-FAM. After adding Mb into the system, D-AMA bound to Mb and separated from F-CSC. The fluorescence of 6-FAM was restored after it separated from dabcyl. The assay exhibited high specificity and sensitivity toward Mb, with a low limit of detection of 0.07 ng/mL (S/N = 3) and linear relationships of 0.1–5 ng/mL. It was further applied to detect Mb levels in spiked human blood sera samples.

Reducing the particle size is a straightforward way to increase the specific surface area of ruthenium oxide, which usually translates to the high specific capacitance for a supercapacitor. Herein, we report a facile strategy to fabricate ultrafine ruthenium oxides supported on various carbon-based substrates (carbon powders, carbon nanotubes, or reduced graphene oxides) as excellent electrode materials for a supercapacitor. The novelty of this work lies in its synthetic approach, which involves an aqueous synthesis of ruthenium nanoclusters under the control of pH value, and an air oxidation-based conversion process. In particular, owing to their ultrafine particle size, the as-prepared carbon-, carbon nanotube-, or reduced graphene oxide-supported ruthenium oxides exhibit specific capacitance as high as 879.1 F g −1 , 966.8 F g −1 and 1099.6 F g −1 , respectively, for a supercapacitor at a current density of 0.5 A g −1 . The specific capacitance maintains 98.4% (for carbon supports), 98.0% (for carbon nanotube supports) and 98.4% (for reduced graphene oxide supports) at current density of 1 A g −1 with good cycling stability. The remarkable simplicity and environmental friendliness of this synthesis may provide a liable quantity production route to produce ruthenium oxides as highly efficient electrode materials for a supercapacitor.

In this paper, a series of iron-based Fischer–Tropsch catalysts were prepared with mesoporous titanium dioxide as catalyst carrier. And the F-T catalytic activities of iron supported on the mesoporous TiO 2 with different doping concentrations were also investigated in photo-thermal driven Fischer–Tropsch synthesis. Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM), Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM), Low temperature N 2 adsorption-desorption, X ray powder diffraction (XRD), Temperature Programmed Reduction (TPR) were used to characterize the catalysts, and the catalytic performance were also investigated for Photo-thermal driven Fischer–Tropsch synthesis under the condition of atmospheric pressure at the temperature of 220 °C, n (H 2 )/ n (CO) = 2:1 and GHSV = 1500 h −1 . It is shown that, for different doping concentration of iron, the conversion of CO, the selectivity of methane and the selectivity of C 2+ changes, resulting in the difference performance of Photo-thermal Fischer Tropsch synthesis reaction.

Rising energy demand has forced to look for new ways to convert energy. Graphene quantum dots (GQD) has received extensive attention in many fields due to their low toxicity, abundant active sites, sound water solubility and photoluminescence stability. Here, a fluorine-nitrogen co-doped GQD (C-GQD) is synthesized for efficient oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) catalysts. The incorporation of fluorine and nitrogen atoms changed the electronic structure of the carbon atom, resulting into synergistic enhancement of catalytic performance toward ORR. Electrochemical studies of the ORR showed that the initial potentials of C-GQD were positively shifted by 200 mV and 170 mV compared with those of GQD and N-GQD, respectively, and the half-wave potentials were positively shifted by 200 mV and 180 mV, which were comparable to that of 20% Pt/C. The CV curves underwent only slight fluctuations after 10,000 cycle tests. The obtained results provide important insights into the use of metal-free catalysts with GQDs as carriers as promising electrocatalysts for proton exchange membrane fuel cells with low cost and easy preparation procedures.

The application of transition metal hydroxides has long been plagued by its poor conductivity and stability as well as severe aggregation tendency. In this paper, a novel hierarchical core–shell architecture, using an F-doped Co(OH)2nanorod array (Co(OH)F) as the core and Mn/Ni co-doped Co(OH)2nanosheets (NiCoMn-LDH) as the shell, was constructed via an MOF-mediated in situ generation method. The obtained Co(OH)F@ NiCoMn-LDH composites exhibited excellent supercapacitive performance with large specific capacitance as well as improved rate capability and long-term stability. The effect of the Ni/Mn ratio on the supercapacitive performance and energy storage kinetics was systematically investigated and the related mechanism was revealed.

Fluorescent fiber is widely used for anti-counterfeiting purposes due to its unique security features and ease of identification worldwide. In this study, polychromatic fluorescent fiber using bleached softwood fiber (F) combined with AgInZnS quantum dots (AIZS QDs) was successfully prepared through a one-step hydrothermal method. The photoluminescence (PL) of AIZS@F could be adjusted from green to red by varying the molar ratio of Ag + /Zn 2+ /S 2− /In 3+ . Increasing the molar ratio of Ag + /In 3+ led to a redshift in peak emission wavelength, increasing Zn 2+ /In 3+ or S 2− /In 3+ resulted in a blueshift in PL wavelength. Furthermore, AIZS QDs were synthesized both on the surface and inside of the fluorescent fiber, and the mild hydrothermal condition did not cause significant damage to the structure of the fiber. Additionally, due to the inherent microporous structure of natural plant fiber, AIZS QDs could still be steadily loaded into the fiber after intense mechanical stirring. AIZS@F exhibited excellent fluorescent performance although the total loading amount was merely 0.457%. This stable, polychromatic, hydrophilic and degradable fluorescent fiber has great potential for anti-counterfeiting applications.

To achieve both the sustainable valorization of antibiotic fermentation residues (AFR) and high-efficiency removal of organic pollutants with low-consumption, this study proposed the harmless transformation of AFR into a novel biochar catalyst for water purification by activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS). Herein, we introduced a novel strategy by converting untreated AFR into a Fenton-like catalyst (AFR/BC) through the controlled coordination of intrinsic Al species with boron and oxygen via an in-situ pyrolysis-solvent method. During the AFR resourcelization process, electron-rich and electron-deficient microregions were generated through directional electron transfer facilitated by B-O-Al interactions, as confirmed by characterization techniques and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. As a result, upon activation by 0.4 mM PMS, the AFR/BC/PMS system achieved over 90 % bisphenol F (BPF) removal after 80 h of continuous treatment, demonstrating sustained purification efficacy in BPF-containing wastewater. Moreover, the system exhibited remarkable resistance to interference from a broad pH range, inorganic anions, and organic compounds. Moreover, the primary degradation pathways of BPF in this system involved both a free radical pathway (SO 4 -, ·OH and O 2 -) and a non-radical pathway ( 1 O 2 ). This study is expected to advance the sustainable utilization of AFR and contribute to the long-term development of water purification technology.

Magnetic hyperthermia (MH) relies on the heat generated by magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) under an alternating magnetic field to kill tumor cells. However, the thermal barrier of the cell membrane hinders the transfer of heat generated by MNPs into cells, thereby limiting their therapeutic efficacy. Enhancing MNPs endocytosis is a promising way to overcome this limitation. The modification of physicochemical properties of MNPs and the pretreatment with electrical field can enhance the endocytosis. As an alternative, here, the effect of alternating magnetic field (AMF) pretreatment was explored. The AMF stimulation increases nanoparticle uptake by 1.62-fold and improves magnetic hyperthermia efficacy by 33 %. AMF stimulation induces F-actin depolymerization, leading to a reduction in cellular elastic modulus. This decreases the elastic deformation energy required for endocytosis, thereby facilitating the formation of membrane ruffles essential for macropinocytosis.

Aptamer-based sensors (aptasensors) have been extensively employed in biosensing and diagnostics. However, the broader application of aptasensors fabricated with DNA and RNA aptamers has been limited due to the intolerance of DNA and RNA to nucleases in biological fluids. A majority of sugar-modified nucleic acids, in particular 2’-F and 2’-OMe-modified nucleic acids, demonstrate a remarkable resistance to nuclease degradation and thus hold great potential in the development of more stable aptamers and aptasensors. In this work, employing enzymes including a laboratory-evolved polymerase for 2’-modified nucleic acids, we carried out systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) experiments to obtain 2’-F/OMe-RNA aptamers for Bacillus cereus 5/B/6 metallo-β-lactamase (B. cereus 5/B/6 MBL), a crucial marker of many penicillin-resistant strains. Three aptamers composed of 2’-OMe-A, 2’-F-U, 2’-F-C, and 2’-OMe-G nucleotides (Apt-FUC1, Apt-FUC2, and Apt-FUC3) have been obtained and systematically characterized. All of them exhibited excellent target binding affinities, with equilibrium dissociation constant (Kd ) values of 95.9, 70.0, and 81.3 nM, and outstanding biological stability. Combining FAM-labeled Apt-FUC1, Apt-FUC2, and Apt-FUC3 with graphene oxide (GO), which could quench the fluorescence of FAM, we successfully constructed three sensitive and biologically stable 2’-F/OMe-RNA aptasensors for B. cereus 5/B/6 MBL, with the limit of detection (LOD) values of 0.38, 0.27, and 0.29 nM. Moreover, these three aptasensors all demonstrated good specificity for target detection in biological samples. This work has established a streamlined strategy for generating stable 2’-F/OMe-RNA aptamers and aptasensors, which should broaden the application of sugar-modified nucleic acids in biosensing and diagnostics.

N and F co-doped La-TiO2 (La-TONF) samples were prepared through the solvothermal method by using HMT and NaF as precursors. The obtained samples were characterized by UV-Vis DRS, XRD, XPS and PL measurements for light-harvesting properties, crystal phase and optical characteristics,
respectively. Interestingly, the TONF sample had a different fluorescence emission intensity than the TON or TOF samples, thus suggesting a clear synergistic effect of N and F co-doping. The optimal doping amount of La was 2 wt.%, and the absorption edge was red-shifted from 453 nm to 464
nm for La-TiO2 and La-TONF. The photocatalytic activity was evaluated by degradation of MO and oxidation of TMB under visible light irradiation. La-TONF exhibited excellent photocatalytic activity and a degradation rate of 92.4%, 4.4 times that of undoped TiO2 (20.8%).
The photocatalytic degradation activity remained above 85.8%, even after five runs. In addition, the MO photodegradation catalyzed by La-TONF followed first order kinetics. According these results, a possible synergistic effect mechanism for the enhanced photocatalytic performance is proposed.
