Traditional Mn-Ce catalysts for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with CO (CO-SCR) in iron and steel flue gases are often hindered by competitive adsorption of NO and CO, which compromises catalytic efficiency. In this study, we present a Ni-doped Mn-Ce catalyst that overcomes these challenges, achieving 96 % NO conversion, 98 % N 2 selectivity, and 44 % CO conversion at 175 °C. Comprehensive characterization of the catalyst reveals that Ni doping significantly enhances Mn-Ce interactions, boosting oxygen vacancy density and promoting efficient redox cycling between Mn 3 + /Mn 4+ and Ce 3+ /Ce 4+ . Diffuse reflectance infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (DRIFTS) confirms preferential NO adsorption at oxygen vacancy sites, minimizing CO-NO competition and stabilizing the Langmuir-Hinshelwood mechanism, where both gases co-adsorb and react at oxygen-rich vacancies. Mechanistic insights suggest that Ni facilitates electron transfer, weakening the N–O bond in NO and accelerating its dissociation, resulting in faster NO reduction. This study establishes Ni doping as a promising strategy for improving the low-temperature performance of Mn-Ce-based CO-SCR catalysts, paving the way for more efficient catalytic systems.

A series of Ba-modified MnCeOx/TiO2 catalysts were prepared by a wet impregnation method and tested for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of NO with NH3 at low temperature. The results showed that Ba additives obviously improved the catalytic performance of the MnCeOx/TiO2 catalyst for NH3-SCR, and the BaMnCeOx/TiO2 catalyst with 3 wt% BaO exhibited the optimal catalytic performance. Moreover, the introduction of Ba also improved the resistances toward water vapor and SO2 of catalysts. The N2 adsorption, H2-TPR, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results showed that the addition of Ba increased the specific surface area, redox properties, and concentrations of surface Mn4+ and chemisorbed oxygen of catalysts. Furthermore, NH3-TPD and NO-TPD were used to investigate the absorption of NH3 and NO on the catalyst. The results revealed that although the introduction of Ba significantly promoted the adsorption of NO, it also inhibited the adsorption of NH3. Consequently, the catalytic performance of MnCeOx/TiO2 was greatly improved with the Ba additives.

The CeO2ordinary amorphous, nanopolyhedrons, nanorods, and nanocubes were prefabricated by the hydrothermal method, and employed as carriers of Fe/W–CeO2catalysts to selectively catalyze the reduction of NO with ammonia. Characterization results indicated that the morphology of CeO2support originated from selectively exposing different crystal surfaces, which has a significant effect on oxygen vacancies, acid sites and the dispersion of Fe2O3. The CeO2nanopolyhedrons catalyst (Fe/W–CeO2–P) showed most oxygen vacancies, the largest the quantity of acid sites, the largest BET (Brunauer-Emmett-Teller) surface area and the best dispersion of Fe2O3, which was associated with predominately exposing CeO2(111) planes. Consequently, the Fe/W–CeO2–P catalyst has the highest NO conversion rate in the temperature range of 100–325 °C among the ordinary amorphous, nanorods, and nanocubes Fe/W–CeO2catalysts.Keywords:morphology;Fe/W–CeO2;nanopolyhedra;CeO2(111) planes

Nitric oxide (NO) gas therapy has aroused intense interest in recent years. l-Arginine (l-Arg) reacts with reactive oxygen species (ROS) in tumor cells to generate NO. This phenomenon represents an effective method for tumor therapy. However, endogenous ROS levels in most types of tumor cells cannot enable an effective reaction. β-Lapachone is generally used to increase H2O2, which can oxidize guanidine derivatives to form nitric oxide in tumor cells. In addition, based on the ferrocene (Fc)-catalyzed Fenton reaction, ·OH is generated from H2O2, and the ONOO– could be generated from an interaction between ·O2– (generated through the Haber–Weiss reaction) and NO. Arg-rich poly(ε-caprolactone) (PCL)-b-PArg, a macromolecular NO donor, was accurately synthesized to avoid premature l-Arg leakage during in vivo transport. In this design, the self-assembled PCL-b-PArg nanoparticles were dressed with the tumor-shreddable masking (PEG-b-PDMA, a negatively charged pH-sensitive hydrophilic diblock polymer), to prepare P-lapa-Fc nanoparticles and hide penetrative capability in the circulation. The experimental results confirmed that this synergistic therapy based on ROS and NO had a significant inhibitory effect on cancer cells, thereby providing new inspiration for NO gas treatment.

The selective catalytic reduction of NO with propane has been investigated with iron based monolithic catalysts supported on alumina, silica, and titania. The catalysts were characterized by N 2 -physisorption, XRD, SEM, XPS, H 2 -TPR, Py-FTIR and in situ DRIFTS technologies. The different supports had a significant influence on specific surface area, surface morphology, lattice oxygen, redox properties and the acid sites, which resulted in differences in the catalytic activity of NO reduction. The C 3 H 8 -SCR performance decreased in the order as Fe/Al 2 O 3 /CM > Fe/SiO 2 /CM > Fe/TiO 2 /CM. Fe/Al 2 O 3 /CM showed the highest activity with a nitrogen oxide conversion of 100% in the presence of oxygen at 500 °C,which is mainly attributed to the good redox properties and the abundant Lewis acid sites. Based on in situ DRIFT studies, the increase of Lewis acid sites will enhance the formation of NO 2 /NO 3 − species and acetate/formate species, then promote the catalytic activity.

The accurate determination of NO 2 concentration in exhaled gases is imperative for discriminating between patients with respiratory/cardiovascular diseases and healthy individuals. Therefore, it is important to employ a streamlined and expeditious methodology for the detection of NO 2 . Semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (sc-SWCNTs) exhibit immense potential as next-generation gas sensors due to their high specific surface area, distinctive atomic structure, and remarkable electrical responsiveness to the surrounding environment. In this work, two conjugated polymers (fluorene-alt-C-benzene (PFCN) and fluorene-alt-N-benzene (PFNC)) were synthesized by the Suzuki coupling, featuring positional isomerism of imine groups (-CH=N- vs. -N = CH-). The introduction of a phenyl side chain via imine bonds (-CH=N-) not only enhances the polymer but also regulates the alignment of the imine groups via steric and electronic effects, optimizing their interaction with sc-SWCNTs. The resulting polymer/sc-SWCNTs complexes were utilized for sensor fabrication. In PFCN, more electronegative N atom is positioned away from the skeleton-forming main chain, increasing its environmental exposure and enabling effective attraction of electron-deficient NO 2 . Consequently, the PFCN/sc-SWCNTs sensor showed a significantly higher response (27.6 %) to 1 ppm NO 2 , which was 1.7-fold higher than the PFNC/sc-SWCNTs sensor (16.52 %). This study presents novel strategies for designing high-performance sensors by integrating sc-SWCNTs with imine-functionalized polymers, advancing sensitive NO 2 detection for applications such as non-invasive medical diagnostics.

Early aging is critical for colour formation in tobacco leaves, yet the underlying metabolic mechanisms remain elusive. This study integrated image processing with untargeted and targeted LC-MS to construct a metabolic network characterising colour evolution in flue-cured tobacco (cv. Cuibi-1, CB-1 ) during early aging (0–120 days). Results indicated that leaf colour significantly brightened during the first 30 days, followed by deepening and reddening. Specifically, L* and b* values showed an initial increase followed by a decrease, whereas the a* value exhibited a sustained upward trend. The constructed metabolic network was anchored in saccharide metabolism, connecting downstream phenolic, flavonoid, sphingolipid, and terpenoid pathways. Sixteen differentially accumulated metabolites (DAMs) were identified across categories including alcohols, flavonoids, lignans, nucleotides, phenolic acids, saccharides, and xanthophylls. These DAMs exhibited distinct change patterns and significant correlations with colour parameters (L* and a*, r ranging from −0.88 to −0.58 and 0.56–0.74, respectively; P < 0.05). For the first time, this study elucidated the metabolic mechanisms governing colour changes in CB-1 tobacco leaves during early aging for the first time, providing novel insights for assessing aging progression and maintaining high-value raw material quality.

The effects of aromatic carbonyls (ACs), polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and phenols (PHs) on the photolysis of nitroaromatic compounds (ArNO 2 ) in the solid phase were explored. The reactive nitrogen gas formation by the photolysis process was investigated in a cylindrical reactor coupled to a NO x analyzer. These organics had an enhanced or inhibited influence on the nitrous acid (HONO) and NO formations by the photolysis of 1-nitropyrene (NPy) and 5-nitrosalicylic acid (NSA), depending on the hydrogen abstraction and donation abilities of organics. Based on the high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) results, methyl-2-benzoylbenzoate (MBB), fluoranthene (FLA) and syringaldehyde (SG) showed a promoted effect on the photodegradation of NPy and NSA, as shown by an increase in the photolysis frequency of ArNO 2 ( J ArNO 2 ) by a factor of 1.19–2.76. Based on experimental results, the HONO source strength by the photolysis of ArNO 2 in organic aerosols was estimated to be lower than 1 ppt h −1 .

Early detection and control of foodborne diseases are crucial for ensuring food safety and consumer health. Therefore, there is a need for faster and more sensitive detection methods. We developed a rapid, portable and visible lateral flow biosensor (LFB) for foodborne pathogenic bacteria detection powered by a Pyrococcus furiosus Argonaute nuclease ( Pf Ago), named as Pf Ago-LFB. LAMP (Loop-mediated isothermal amplification) was used to amplify the target nucleic acid . By using Pf Ago as the “lighting up” technology, we can overcome the limitations of false-positive results and lack of effective endpoint monitoring in LAMP, greatly enhancing its applicability. It turned out that Pf Ago-LFB was able to provide yes-or-no (positive or negative) results with a limit of detection (LOD) as low as 1 CFU/mL for S. typhimurium and the detection range was between 10 0 to 10 8 CFU/mL. It was able to secure a sample-to-answer test for contaminated food samples in less than 45 min and demonstrated satisfactory selectivity. In summary, we designed a Pf Ago-LFB that rendered a novel, rapid, accurate, easy-to-deploy, on-site and yes or no detection of S. typhimurium , which could be generalized for building a “one-for-all” biosensing platform.

Selective photocatalytic oxidation of NO to nitrate (NO 3 – ) over toxic NO 2 remains challenging due to low selectivity and inefficient charge migration in existing systems. This study introduces Fe 3+ as an electron acceptor beneath a Bi 4 TaO 8 Cl/Bi 2 O 2 CO 3 heterojunction to precisely regulate electron pathways and promote targeted hydroxyl radical ( • OH) generation. Combined experimental and DFT analyses reveal Fe 3+ ’s dual role: enhancing interfacial electron transfer and activating H 2 O at surface sites to form • OH. The optimized heterojunction achieves 68.19 % NO conversion with minimal NO 2 selectivity (10.98 %). ESR and ROS quenching confirm Fe 3+ -driven electron migration enriches surface holes, boosting H 2 O adsorption and • OH production (2.76-fold increase). The strong oxidation capacity of • OH suppresses NO 2 formation, favoring complete NO oxidation to NO 3 – . This work provides a strategic approach for selective NO removal by electron-pathway engineering, advancing the design of eco-friendly photocatalysts for air pollution control.

The flammability of bismaleimide (BMI) resins limits the application in cutting-edge fields. However, the addition of phosphorus-containing flame retardants results in deteriorated thermal stability of BMI resins. A phosphorus-free flame retardant strategy has been adopted to modify BMI resins while preserving high heat resistance. 3, 3’-Bisallyl-4,4’-bishydroxydeoxybenzoin (BA-BHDB) was synthesized from desoxyanisoin and used as a modifier for BMI resins by replacing conventional 2, 2’-diallylbisphenol A (DBA). The thermal, mechanical and flammability properties of BA-BHDB-cured BMI resins were investigated and compared with those of DBA-cured BMI resins. The cured BA-BHDB-BMI resins exhibit an LOI value for combustion of 35.0% and a UL-94 V-0 rating, whereas the cured DBA-BMI resins display a lower LOI value of 30.0% and a UL-94 V-1 rating. In the cone calorimeter measurements, the PHRR and THR values for combustion of BA-BHDB-BMI were 381.1 kW/m 2 and 92.5 MJ/m 2 , which were 53.2% and 25.2% lower than those of DBA-BMI, respectively. Additionally, the heat resistance of the cured BA-BHDB-BMI resins was greater than that of the DBA-BMI resins, with an initial thermal decomposition temperature of 428 °C and a glass transition temperature of 285 °C. The excellent anti-flammability of BA-BHDB-BMI may be attributed to the superior charring capacity of BA-BHDB, which contributes to the formation of a dense and protective char layer during thermal decomposition.
