We prepared a new polar layered quantum magnet Ba2Cu3(SeO3)4F2, by a combined use of F– and pyramidal SeO32– anions, determined its crystal structure by X-ray diffraction, and characterized its magnetic properties by magnetization, electron spin resonance (ESR) and specific heat measurements, and by density functional theory calculations. The title compound has first experimentally reported bitriangular chains of Cu2+ ions aligned along the b direction to form layers parallel to the ab plane, and these layers are separated by Ba2+ ions. The magnetic susceptibility data reveal that, despite strong predominant antiferromagnetic intrachain interactions indicated by the large negative Weiss temperature θ of −143.9 K within bitriangular chains, no long-range order occurs down to 2 K. The latter, further confirmed by the specific heat measurements, is attributed to the extremely weak interlayer interaction. The spins in each bitriangular chain become ferrimagnetically ordered to exhibit a 1/3-magnetization plateau, which persists at least up to 30 T. This reveals that each bitriangular chain acts as an S = 1/2 entity at low temperatures, as observed from the decrease of the effective magnetic moment Peff from 3.67 μB in the high temperature range to 1.89 μB in the low temperature range, equivalently, from three free Cu2+ ions to only one effective Cu2+ ion per formula unit. In each layer of Ba2Cu3(SeO3)4F2, the interaction between adjacent ferrimagnetic chains is ferromagnetic rather than antiferromagnetic, contrary to the observations in other reported cases.

Antimony chalcogenide Sb 2 (S, Se) 3 is attracting a lot of attention as photovoltaic absorber owing to its rewarding photoelectric properties, low toxicity, and earth abundance. However, its device efficiency is still limited by the absorber material quality and device interface recombination. In this work, a fluorine-doped tin oxide (FTO) substrate with ultra-thin SnO 2 layer and a low-cost stabilized carbon paste are introduced as a front and back contact layer respectively in Sb 2 (S, Se) 3 based planar solar cells. Over 5.2 % efficiency is demonstrated in the structure of FTO/SnO 2 /CdS/Sb 2 (S, Se) 3 /Carbon/Ag, where the Sb 2 (S, Se) 3 is prepared by hydrothermal technique. The complementary device physics characterizations reveal that the interfacial recombination between TCO and CdS is significantly suppressed by the introduction of ultra-thin SnO 2 layer, which is profited from the leakage protection and bandgap offset engineering by its high resistivity and suitable conduction band minimum. Meanwhile, the successful adoption of the low-cost stabilized carbon as a back contact here shows an enormous potential to replace the conventional organic hole transport materials and noble metal. We hope this work can provide positive guidance to optimize Sb 2 (S, Se) 3 based planar solar cells in the future.

In the present work, we developed a novel dispersive microextraction technique by combining the advantages of liquid-phase microextraction (LPME) and magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE). In this method, trace amount of water directly absorbed on bare Fe 3 O 4 to form water-coated Fe 3 O 4 (W-Fe 3 O 4 ) and rapid extraction can be achieved while W-Fe 3 O 4 dispersed in the sample solution. The analyte adsorbed W-Fe 3 O 4 can be easily collected and isolated from sample solution by application of a magnet. It was worth noting that in the proposed method water was used as extractant and Fe 3 O 4 served as the supporter and retriever of water. The performance of the method was evaluated by extraction of 3-monochloropropane-1,2-diol (3-MCPD) from edible oils. The extracted 3-MCPD was then derived by a silylanization reagent (1-trimethylsilylimidazole) before gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) analysis. Several parameters that affected the extraction and derivatization efficiency were investigated. Our results showed that the limit of detection for 3-MCPD was 1.1 ng/g. The recoveries in spiked oil samples were in the range of 70.0–104.9% with the RSDs less than 5.6% (intra-day) and 6.4% (inter-day). Taken together, the simple, rapid and cost-effective method developed in current study, offers a potential application for the extraction and preconcentration of hydrophilic analytes from complex fatty samples.

Background In recent years, nitrooxy compounds have been identified as promising inhibitors of methanogenesis in ruminants. However, when animals receive a nitrooxy compound, a high portion of the spared hydrogen is eructated as gas, which partly offsets the energy savings of CH 4 mitigation. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the long-term and combined effects of supplementation with N-[2-(nitrooxy)ethyl]-3-pyridinecarboxamide (NPD), a methanogenesis inhibitor, and fumaric acid (FUM), a hydrogen sink, on enteric CH 4 production, rumen fermentation, bacterial populations, apparent nutrient digestibility, and lactation performance of dairy goats. Results Twenty-four primiparous dairy goats were used in a randomized complete block design with a 2 × 2 factorial arrangement of treatments: supplementation without or with FUM (32 g/d) or NPD (0.5 g/d). All samples were collected every 3 weeks during a 12-week feeding experiment. Both FUM and NPD supplementation persistently inhibited CH 4 yield (L/kg DMI, by 18.8% and 18.1%, respectively) without negative influence on DMI or apparent nutrient digestibility. When supplemented in combination, no additive CH 4 suppression was observed. FUM showed greater responses in increasing the molar proportion of propionate when supplemented with NPD than supplemented alone (by 10.2% vs. 4.4%). The rumen microbiota structure in the animals receiving FUM was different from that of the other animals, particularly changed the structure of phylum Firmicutes. Daily milk production and serum total antioxidant capacity were improved by NPD, but the contents of milk fat and protein were decreased, probably due to the bioactivity of absorbed NPD on body metabolism. Conclusions Supplementing NPD and FUM in combination is a promising way to persistently inhibit CH 4 emissions with a higher rumen propionate proportion. However, the side effects of this nitrooxy compound on animals and its residues in animal products need further evaluation before it can be used as an animal feed additive.

Removing impurities from hexavalent chromium system without secondary pollution is the key to the successful development of green chromate production technology. Here, hydrated chromium oxide CrO x (OH) 3-2x with lamellar cluster microsphere structure was prepared by in-situ hydrothermal method and used to simultaneously adsorb Si (IV) and V (V) in high concentration Cr (VI) solution. In the in-situ hydrothermal process of pH 7, 160 ℃ for 8 h, the Si (IV) and V (V) removal rates of the actual chromate production Na 2 Cr 2 O 7 -Na 2 SiO 3 -NaVO 3 -H 2 O solution can reach 92.27 % and 94.81 %, respectively, which is higher than the ex-situ removal efficiency of Si (IV) (62.88 %) and V (V) (63.16 %) under the same conditions. Further characterization of STEM-elemental mapping, XPS and FT-IR results indicate that during in-situ adsorption, Si (IV) and V (V) are mainly adsorbed on the surface of CrO x (OH) 3-2X adsorbent by interacting with surface hydroxyl groups. More importantly, the simultaneous formation and adsorption of the adsorbent are more conducive to the full utilization of active adsorption sites on the adsorbent surface. After that, CrO x (OH) 3-2x was converted into nano Cr 2 O 3 with a purity of 97.87 % by simple desorption and calcination processes. In addition, the results of UV–vis DRS and SEM show that the residual Si and V elements in Cr 2 O 3 unexpectedly increase the size of the particles to about 300 nm, which redshifts the absorption band of the blue region by 3.3 nm. This results in more red absorption and makes Cr 2 O 3 more yellowish-green and exhibits excellent pigment properties. Thus, the in-situ synthesis, synergistic adsorption and green conversion of trivalent chromium adsorbent provide a promising and sustainable technology for the purification of high concentration Cr (VI) solution that avoids the discharge of Cr (VI) containing slag.

Seven magnetic covalent organic framework molecularly imprinted polymers with magnetic responsiveness, large specific surface area, and molecular recognition ability were successfully synthesized, suitable for the separation of cyanidin-3-O-glucoside from complex samples. Using a room-temperature synthesis strategy, covalent organic frameworks accompanied by imprinted sites were formed in one step on the functionalized magnetic nanoparticles with 1,6-hexanediamine. The composite materials were easy to prepare and showed high adsorption capacity (127 mg g–1) together with favorable adsorption selectivity for cyanidin-3-O-glucoside over other flavonoids and phenolic acids. Magnetic covalent organic framework molecularly imprinted polymers exhibited good stability in 10 adsorption–desorption cycles. This work established a new method of extracting and separating high-purity anthocyanins and even unstable natural compounds.

Comprehensive Summary The environmental contamination of uranium will occur in scenarios such as nuclear accidents and leakage from nuclear waste storage sites, which eventually leads to the internal uranium exposure of people, causing consequential injuries of renal failure, osteosarcoma, etc . The development of uranyl specific chelating agents that could sequester uranium in vivo is in urgent need and is important for the safe and efficient development of nuclear industry. Metal organic frameworks (MOFs) already serve as efficient uranium depletion materials in solutions of a wide range of pH and ionic strength for nuclear fuel recycling, uranium extraction from seawater, as well as environmental decontamination. Herein, a chromium-based nano-metal organic framework (nano-MOF) functionalized interiorly with 3,2-HOPO ligands, MIL-101-HOPO, is rationally synthesized. In vitro adsorption experiments show that MIL-101-HOPO exhibits high adsorption selectivity and fast adsorption kinetics for uranyl. The results of in vivo uranyl decorporation assays reveal that MIL-101-HOPO with the decoration of HOPO ligands on the interior wall exhibits significantly increased uranyl removal ratio in kidneys comparing to the pristine nMOFs, and is more effective than the clinically used ZnNa 3 -DTPA. All those results corroborate the interior functionalization of MOFs as an efficient strategy to develop promising uranyl decorporation agents.

In recent years, polymerized small molecule acceptors (PSMAs) have emerged as a promising strategy that combines the strong absorption of small molecules with the film-forming ability and stability of polymers, thereby greatly boosting the performance of all-polymer solar cells (all-PSCs). We designed a non-fused acceptor, DTBT-IC, and its polymeric counterpart, PDTBT-Br-T, by selecting DTBT as the core, bithiophene as the π-bridge, and IC as the terminal group. PDTBT-Br-T was synthesized via Stille coupling and used with PM6 as the donor to fabricate organic solar cells. The PDTBT-Br-T-based device delivered superior performance, with a VOC of 1.050 V, JSC of 9.32 mA cm−2, FF of 45.33%, and a PCE of 4.44%, outperforming the DTBT-IC-based counterpart. Morphological and structural analyses revealed that PDTBT-Br-T exhibits more ordered backbone stacking and defined phase separation, enhancing exciton dissociation and charge transport, and suppressing energy loss. The study highlights that polymerization of DTBT-IC enhances intermolecular packing and microstructure, offering critical design insights for efficient all-PSCs.

An electrochemical aptasensor for quantitatively detecting glypican-3 (GPC3) was constructed by combining hemin-reduced graphene oxide-platinum (H-rGO-Pt) nanoparticles (NPs) with reduced graphene oxide-gold (rGO-Au) nanoparticles (NPs). Herein, the rGO-Au NPs deposited onto screen-printed
electrodes resulted in signal amplification due to their large surface areas. Meanwhile, highly conductive H-rGO-Pt NPs acted as a sensing medium that improved electrical conductivity and as an indicator for monitoring peak current for determination. A GPC3 aptamer (GPC3apt) with a low equilibrium
dissociation constant was used as a bio-recognition molecule. GPC3apt specifically captured GPC3 proteins and formed aptamer-GPC3 complexes, which impeded electron transfer and thus hampered the redox signal of hemin in H-rGO-Pt NPs. This developed electrochemical aptasensor showed a linear
response to GPC3 (from 0.001 μg/mL to 10 μg/mL) and had a detection limit of 0.001 μg/mL. This work provides a low-cost and highly sensitive detection with and good recovery for GPC3 and holds great promise for the clinical diagnosis of hepatocellular carcinoma.

Firstly, cerium dioxide(CeO 2 ) was modified by 3-(Methylacryloxyl)propyltrimethoxy silane (KH-570), and modified CeO 2 (mCeO 2 ) was prepared. Then poly (urethane-acrylate) was modified by mCeO 2 , and poly (urethane-acrylate)/modified CeO 2 (PUA/mCeO 2 ) composites with ultraviolet absorption property were prepared. The morphology, thermal hydrophobicity, mechanical properties, optical properties, and UV-absorption properties of PUA/mCeO 2 composites were studied. XRD and SEM analysis showed that the modified CeO 2 had better dispersion in the matrix than that of pure CeO 2 . Ultraviolet–visible spectrum and thermogravimetric analysis were used to characterize the optical properties and thermal stability of PUA/mCeO 2 composites. The results showed that with the increasing of the mCeO 2 content, the UV-absorption property of PUA/mCeO 2 composites was improved gradually. When the content of mCeO 2 is 3%, the absorption of ultraviolet of PUA/mCeO2 composites is about 5 times of pure PUA film, and the absorption band is mainly in the UVA section. The thermal stability of PUA/mCeO 2 composites was improved with the adding of mCeO 2 . With the increasing of mCeO 2 content, the contact angle of PUA/mCeO 2 composites increased significantly. And the UV-absorption mechanism of PUA/mCeO 2 Composites was studied. UV-curable PUA/mCeO 2 composites have good UV absorption property and water resistance. They will be used in the sun screen and protect people's skin.

This study deals with the design and synthesis of a series of novel 4-methoxy-substituted and 5-methyl-substituted (3′S,4′S)-(−)-cis-khellactones. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), 13C-NMR, mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis. All the derivatives were subjected to in vitro cytotoxicity screening against HEPG-2 (human liver carcinoma), SGC-7901 (human gastric carcinoma), and LS174T (human colon carcinoma), by using the MTT assay. The results revealed that several of the 4-methoxy-substituted compounds exhibited potent cytotoxicity. Among these, compound 12e showed the highest activity against cancer cells which 50% inhibitory concentration (IC50) values were in the range of 6.1–9.2 μM with low toxicity on normal human hepatocyte. Preliminary investigation of possible mechanisms of action of compound 12e against HEPG-2 cells indicated possible induction of apoptosis, as determined by morphological observations and Annexin V/propidium iodide (PI) double staining, in addition to apparent dissipation of mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP), as measured by 5,5′,6,6′-tetrachloro-1,1′,3,3′-tetraethyl-imidacarbocyanine iodide (JC-1) staining in combination with the activation of caspase-9 and caspase-3 by Western blot analysis. Overall, the data suggest that compound 12e may be a promising potential anti-cancer agent that could act primarily by inducing apoptosis through the mitochondria-mediated intrinsic pathway in human hepatoma cells.

Sulfide all-solid-state lithium battery (ASSLB) with nickel-rich layered oxide as the cathode is promising for next-generation energy storage system. However, the Li+ transport dynamic and stability in ASSLB are hindered by the structural mismatches and the instabilities especially at the oxide cathode/sulfide solid electrolyte (SE) interface. In this work, we have demonstrated a simple and highly effective solid-state mechanofusion method (1500 rpm for 10 min) to combine lithium conductive NASICON-type LiZr2(PO4)3 nanocrystals (∼20 nm) uniformly and compactly onto the surface of the single crystallized LiNi0.8Co0.1Mn0.1O2, which can also attractively achieve Zr4+ doping in NCM811 and oxygen vacancies in the LZPO coating without solvent and annealing. Benefiting from the alleviated interface mismatches, sufficient Li+ ion flux through the LZPO coating, promoted structural stabilities for both NCM811 and sulfide SE, strong electronic coupling effect between the LZPO and NCM811, and enlarged (003) d-spacing with enriched Li+ migration channels in NCM811, the obtained LZPO-NCM811 exhibits superior stability (185 mAh/g at 0.1C for 200 cycles) and rate performance (105 mAh/g at 1C for 1300 cycles) with high mass loading of 27 mgNCM/cm2 in sulfide ASSLB. Even with a pronounced 54 mgNCM/cm2, LZPO-NCM811 manifests a high areal capacity of 9.85 mAh/cm2. The convenient and highly effective interface engineering strategy paves the way to large-scale production of various coated cathode materials with synergistic effects for high performance ASSLBs.
