Background Despite significant limitations of growth medium reuse, a large amount of organic substrate is reused in soilless cultivation of horticultural crops in China. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can promote nutrient absorption and improve plant tolerance to biotic and abiotic stresses. However, the mechanisms governing the effects of AMF on crop growth in organic continuous cropping substrates have not been elucidated.Results In this study, we showed that the inoculation of AMF in continuous cropping substrates promoted growth and root development, and increased the root and NADP-malic enzyme (NADP-ME) activity of tomato seedlings. Root transcriptome analysis demonstrated that the plant hormone signal transduction pathway was highly enriched, and 109 genes that positively correlated with the AMF-inoculated plant phenotype were obtained by gene set enrichment analysis (GSEA), which identified 9 genes related to indole acetic acid (IAA). Importantly, the levels of endogenous IAA in tomato seedlings significantly increased after AMF inoculation. Furthermore, the application of AMF significantly increased the expression levels of NADP-ME1 and NADP-ME2, as well as the activity of NADP-ME, and enhanced the root activity of tomato seedlings in comparison to that observed without inoculation of AMF. However, these effects were blocked in plants treated with 2,3,5-triiodobenzoic acid (TIBA), a polar transport inhibitor of IAA.Conclusion sThese results suggest that IAA mediates the AMF-promoted tomato growth and expression of NADP-MEs in continuous cropping substrates. The study provides convincing evidence for the reuse of continuous cropping substrates by adding AMF as an amendment.

Amentoflavone, a biflavonoid occurring in many edible supplements, possesses some bioactivities, including antioxidant, anti-inflammation, antitumor, and neuroprotective activities. In the present study, an ultrahigh-performance liquid chromatography coupled to quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS) method, combined with a three-step analytical strategy, was employed to identify metabolites in vivo (rat plasma, bile, urine, and feces) and in vitro (rat liver microsomes and rat intestine microsomes). A total of 39 metabolites in rats and nine metabolites in rat microsomes were elucidated by UHPLC-Q-TOF-MS/MS analysis, and the chemical structure of some isomers was further assigned by calculated Clog P values. Oxidation, internal hydrolysis, hydrogenation, methylation, sulfation, glucuronidation, glucosylation, O-aminomethylation, and degradation were the major metabolic pathways of amentoflavone. Noteworthy, O-aminomethylation and glucosylation could be considered as unique metabolic pathways of amentoflavone. This was the first report on metabolite identification of amentoflavone in vivo and in vitro, and the metabolic findings offer novel and valuable evidence for an in-depth understanding of the safety and efficacy of amentoflavone.

Adjusting the growth kinetics of the interfacial compound layers may be a feasible way to enhance joint properties or service performance. In this study, the textured Ti 3 SiC 2 was obtained by hot-deforming the sintered Ti 3 SiC 2 (TSC), and the effects of the texture orientation on the interfacial microstructural evolution and growth kinetics of the interfacial compounds in the diffusion bonded TiAl/Ti 3 SiC 2 joints were investigated. The texture orientation of Ti 3 SiC 2 had little effect on the interfacial microstructural evolution but had a significant effect on the growth kinetics. When bonded at the same temperature, the growth rate of the interfacial compound layers in the TiAl/TSC ∥ joint (TSC ∥ , TSC ⊥ : Ti 3 SiC 2 with [0001] texture orientation parallel, perpendicular to the bonded seam) was fastest; which was slowest in the TiAl/TSC ⊥ joint and was in the middle in the TiAl/TSC joint. The highest shear strengths of the three different joints were similar (about 54 MPa).

High mechanical performance electrospun polymeric nanofibers are highly desired for practical applications, especially as reinforcements for composites. However, most of the electrospun polymeric nanofibers present tensile strength < 3 GPa. To overcome such limitation, this work successfully prepared single rGO reinforced polyimide composite nanofiber with tensile strength up to 4.2 GPa (PI/rGO-1.0%) and modulus up to 121 GPa (PI/rGO-1.2%) by applying in-situ polymerization, electrospinning, and in-situ thermal conversion. These mechanical properties are higher than other polymer-based electrospun nanofibers, and 45% and 236% higher than those of neat PI single nanofiber, respectively. The in-situ strategies provide the homogeneous dispersion of rGO in single electrospun nanofibers and enhance the interfacial interaction between rGO and PI. In addition, the PI/rGO composite nanofibers also present excellent thermal stability with glass transition temperature (T g ) > 295 °C, and the 5% thermal decomposition temperature (T 5% ) > 539 °C. This work would open a new route for the preparation of high performance electrospun nanofibers for composites.

B cell linker protein (BLNK), an adapter of SLP-76 family, plays an extremely important role in B cell receptor (BCR) signaling pathway that regulates proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis of B cell. BLNK participates in the signal transduction of BCR activation through its typical structure and interaction network with SYK, BTK etc. In this study, Nile tilapia BLNK (OnBLNK) open reading frame is 1470 bp in length for 489 amino acids. OnBLNK composes of a SAM domain at the N-terminal, a central proline-rich region and a highly conserved SH2 domain containing four conserved YXXP tyrosine phosphorylation sites at the C-terminal. Alignment of BLNK sequence and phylogenetic analysis indicated that OnBLNK was highly homologous to that of other teleost fish and mammals. Tissue distribution analysis revealed that OnBLNK showed a wide distribution in all examined tissues and with the highest expression in head kidney . After challenge with Streptococcus agalactiae ( S. agalactiae ) in vivo , the OnBLNK expression was significantly up-regulated in spleen and head kidney. In addition, the significant up-regulation of OnBLNK mRNA expression was also observed in head kidney leukocytes (HKLs) stimulated with S. agalactiae and lipopolysaccharide (LPS) in vitro . Further, it was also demonstrated that expression of OnBLNK mRNA was obviously up-regulated when HKLs were stimulated by mouse anti-tilapia IgM monoclonal antibody in vitro , and declined to normal after treatment with LYN, SYK or BTK inhibitor, respectively. Overall, the results suggest that OnBLNK might take part in host defense during bacterial infection, and get involved in the BCR signaling pathway. This study might aid to better understand the regulatory mechanism of BCR signaling pathway in teleost fish.

A novel monolithic column incorporated with Schiff base network-1 (SNW-1) was prepared for in-tube solid phase microextraction (SPME) of antiepileptic drugs . The SNW-1 nanoparticles was synthesized by a solvent thermal method and embedded in the poly(glycidyl methacrylate-ethylene glycol dimethacrylate) (GMA-EGDMA) monolithic column by in situ polymerization. The amount of SNW-1 in polymerization solution for preparation of monolithic column was optimized. Fourier transform infrared spectrometry and scanning electron microscope were used to characterize the obtained monolithic column. The SNW-1-monolithic column was connected to the high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) system and applied for online extraction and analysis of antiepileptic drugs. The extraction conditions including sample solution flow rate , desorption time, acetonitrile content, pH of sample solution and sample volume were investigated. Under optimal conditions, the proposed SPME-HPLC method showed high extraction efficiency, good linearity, low limits of detection (0.2 ng/mL) and good repeatability (relative standard deviations < 2.41%). This method was also applied to the analysis of antiepileptic drugs in human plasma samples and the recoveries were in the range of 88.6–106.1% with RSDs less than 3.51%.

The secretion disorder of sex hormones is the source that leads to the occurrence of many diseases such as polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS), hyperandrogenism and so on. There exist physiological changes in human body when slight fluctuations in concentrations of sex hormones happen. Therefore, it’s of great significance for accurate detection of sex hormones in human body. In this work, TpPa-1 COF solid-phase microextraction (SPME) fiber was prepared using high-efficient in-situ synthesis strategy and coupled with HPLC-MS/MS to detect three sex hormones, including Progesterone (P), testosterone (T) and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) in human serum. The thickness of the coating reached 7 μ m within 2 h. Under the optimal conditions, the established method presented low limit of detections (LODs, ≤ 0.75 ng/mL), wide linear ranges (0.100–100 ng mL −1 ) and good reproducibility, and three sex hormones (T, P, DHEA) were successfully detected and quantified in human serum. In conclusion, the established SPME method presented high-efficient fiber preparation and good analytical performances of sex hormone detection, therefore was in great potential for application in clinical.

In order to lower desulfurization cost, the NaBH 4 preparation via NaBO 2 electroreduction was introduced into the integrated process of extraction and reductive desulfurization. Accordingly, a novel desulfurization method was developed where NaBH 4 can be recycled at the same time as desulfurization. The process of NaBH 4 preparation via NaBO 2 electroreduction was analyzed by cyclic voltammetry and the effect of pulse parameters on desulfurization efficiency was optimized by orthogonal experiments. Under optimal conditions desulfurization efficiency of more than 97 % was obtained for model fuel oil. Desulfurization mechanism and kinetics was probed. Results showed that the desulfurization of DBT should proceed over direct cleavage of C S bond and desulfurization reaction could be treated as pseudo-first-order reaction. Furthermore, the structures of original and recycled ionic liquids (ILs) were analyzed by nuclear magnetic resonance and the desulfurization performance of the recycled ILs was also investigated. Results showed that ILs maintained their original structures after regeneration and displayed good reusability. In summary, the novel desulfurization process is feasible and promising.

Elucidating the relationship between glycosylation and phosphorylation of protein post-translational modifications is of great significance for understanding most diseases. Mass spectrometry has been widely used in research of protein phosphorylation and glycosylation. However, to realize in situ and dynamic analysis of the levels of phosphorylation and glycosylation in cells and in vivo, mass spectrometry still has certain difficulties. Herein, a nano-MOF-based fluorescent probe with Zr(IV) and boric acid as the active center was designed and prepared. Fluorescence detection and imaging of phosphate is achieved through the specific interaction of Zr(IV) and phosphate. With aim to achieve specific recognition of glycosylation sites, the boronic acid group was modified in the MOF structure, and the fluorescence of the MOFs was regulated by the alizarin red. Thus, the glycosylation sites were recognized by the competition between alizarin red and glycosyl. Finally, the nanoprobe was successfully applied for in situ fluorescence imaging of the levels of glycosylation and phosphorylation in depressed mice.

The optimal storage temperature for vaccines ranges from 2 °C to 8 °C. Electronic thermometers can provide real-time and remote temperature monitoring but are not applicable for individual packages. However, it is known that few alkanes have melting points in this range. The photo-induced conversion of colorless spiropyran to blue merocyanine can be thermally reversed, resulting in decoloration. By dispersing spiropyran in a mixture of n-tetradecane and n-pentadecane with the melting point of 8 °C, an accurate and low-cost thermochromism indicator to record temperature abuse has been designed. The results showed that the thin label based on this system has taken a permanent decoloration within 10 min of the temperature exceeding 8 °C.

The solubility of dimethyl 2,2′-azobis(2-methylpropionate) (AIBME) was determined in 15 pure solvents, including cyclohexane, dichloromethane, diethyl ether, acetone, tetrahydrofuran, ethyl acetate, tetrachloromethane, acetonitrile, methylbenzene, methanol, ethanol, n-propyl alcohol, isopropanol, n-butyl alcohol, and iso-butyl alcohol, and in a binary solvent system (methanol + water) at the temperature range from 253.15 to 293.15 K at atmospheric pressure. Between 278.15 and 293.15 K, the solubility of AIBME is more sensitive to temperature in alcohol solvents than in other solvents. However, the solubility of AIBME in nonalcoholic solvents decreased more rapidly than in alcohol solvents below 278.15 K. The AIBME solubility in the binary solvent system (methanol + water) is positive to temperature and the initial mole fraction of methanol. The measured solubility data of AIBME in pure solvents were correlated by the modified Apelblat equation, the λh equation, the nonrandom two-liquid (NRTL) model, and the Wilson model. The measured solubility data of AIBME in binary solvent systems were correlated by the modified Apelblat equation, the nonrandom two-liquid (NRTL) model, and the Wilson model. Among the four models, the NRTL model is the best model to fit the solubility of AIBME, especially in alcohol solvents. In addition, the mixing properties of AIBME in 15 pure solvents, including standard mixing Gibbs energy, mixing enthalpy, and mixing entropy, were calculated and discussed. The results provide useful information for practical optimization of AIBME crystallization processes.

Removing dyes and antibiotics from wastewater remains the current requirement for a global health problem. The ionic macroporous adsorbent is an efficient solution to this problem. Herein, a novel sulfonated TiO 2 /poly(acrylamide- co -2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid) [TiO 2 /P(AM- co -AMPS)] macroporous composite monolith was first prepared by copolymerization of AM and AMPS in m TiO 2 -costabilized CO 2 -in-water Pickering high internal phase emulsions (HIPEs). The composite monoliths were characterized using XRD , SEM, confocal laser scanning microscopy , EDS mapping, FTIR, TGA , and mercury injection methods. The mechanical properties of the TiO 2 /P(AM- co -AMPS) HIPE were also evaluated. The void diameter could be adjusted by changing the density of carbon dioxide and the amount of m TiO 2 . The equilibrium swelling ratios of TiO 2 /P(AM- co -AMPS) with different contents of crosslinking agent of 2, 5, and 10 wt% (AM+AMPS) were 93, 37, and 19 g/g, respectively. TiO 2 /P(AM- co -AMPS) was used to remove methylene blue (MB) and tetracycline (TC) for evaluating the adsorptive properties of the composite monoliths. Results indicated that the main adsorption driving force was the electrostatic attraction between −SO 3 − and MB/TC. Adsorption experiments were conducted using a batch technique. The adsorption capacities of TiO 2 /P(AM- co -AMPS) for MB and TC were 1660 and 1128 mg/g in a wide pH range of 3–10. The equilibrium saturation point could be reached after 90 min for MB and 360 min for TC. Thereafter, the removal of MB and TC by gravity-driven separation was presented. The breakthrough curve and reuse evaluation for the removal of MB/TC were also studied in detail.
