The excessive use of antibiotics has accelerated the rise of antimicrobial resistance (AMR), and rapid antimicrobial susceptibility testing (AST) is very important for the early detection, early prevention and treatment of AMR. On this basis, we combined manganese-doped zinc sulfide quantum dots (Mn-ZnS QDs) with aminated dendritic mesoporous silica nanoparticles (DMSNs-NH 2 ) to prepare Mn-ZnS QDs@DMSNs-NH 2 room-temperature phosphorescent (RTP) nanocomposites. H 2 O 2 can quench the RTP of Mn-ZnS QDs@DMSNs-NH 2 nanocomposites, while catalase-positive bacteria can cause the hydrolysis of H 2 O 2 . Hence, RTP detection of different antibiotic tolerance for Staphylococcus aureus ( S. aureus ) and methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was achieved. This sensing system can achieve rapid bacterial detection and AST through the difference in RTP intensity. Experimental results demonstrated that the linear detection range for bacteria is 0×10 5 -64×10 5 CFU·mL -1 , with a limit of detection (LOD) of 1×10 5 CFU·mL -1 for MRSA and 0.7×10 5 CFU·mL -1 for S. aureus . The pore confinement effect of DMSNs-NH 2 can induce the aggregation of Mn-ZnS QDs, which strengthens the RTP of Mn-ZnS QDs@DMSNs-NH 2 nanocomposites and improves the sensitivity of RTP detection. This method is not only free from sample background fluorescence interference, but also shortens the AST time (less than 90 min), making antibacterial treatment more time-saving and efficient and reducing patient pains. This nanosensor provides a new strategy for rapid clinical bacterial detection and effective assessment of antimicrobial susceptibility.

Cancer immunotherapy has improved the survival rate of patients with malignant tumors. However, the response of solid tumors to immunotherapy is quite limited. Here, we report a pH-responsive nanocomposite for augmented sonodynamic-chemodynamic immunotherapy. This Mn-CaCO 3 -2,2′-azobis[2-(2-imidazolin-2-yl) propane]-dihydrochloride (AIPH) nanosystem, Lipo@MCA, was prepared through a simple two-step reaction. It released sonosensitizer AIPH and Ca 2+ within the acidic tumor microenvironment. AIPH generated alkyl free radicals under ultrasound irradiation, and Mn 2+ produces ·OH through Fenton-like reaction. The Ca 2+ induced calcium overload in tumor cells. This induced mitochondrial dysfunction and promoted tumor cell apoptosis. Lipo@MCA also inhibited the phosphorylation of Akt and PI3K. In vitro experiments indicated that the nanoparticle inhibited tumor cell invasion and migration, and induced tumor cell apoptosis. In vivo experiments demonstrated that Lipo@MCA inhibited tumor growth by promoting cytokine secretion, stimulating dendritic cell maturation, and enhancing T-cell differentiation. In summary, this study paves the way for synergistic inhibition of tumor cell metastasis and immunotherapy in solid tumors through PI3K signaling pathway inhibition.

Mesoporous MnO x -Y and LnO x /MnO x ozone decomposition catalysts were prepared by calcination of Mn-BTC (BTC = 1,3,5-benzentricarboxylate) and doping of lanthanide elements (Ln = La, Ce, Sm, Eu, Er). Compared to MnO x -Y catalysts, the LnO x /MnO x catalysts showed higher ozone catalytic activity, the mutual conversion between Ln n+ and Mn n+ was helpful to improve ozone decomposition. The CeO x /MnO x catalyst showed the highest catalytic that showed 93% conversion of 40 ppm O 3 in the relative humidity (RH) = 65% after 360 min, which was attributed to the largest specific surface area, more oxygen vacancies , Mn 3+ and O ads . In addition, the CeO x /MnO x catalyst was loaded into the non-woven fabric to obtain CeO x /MnO x -NWF catalyst, which showed a highly efficient and stable ozone conversion under the RH range from less than 5%–85%. This work will promote the practical application of Mn-BTC derived catalysts.

Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with abundant pores are excellent adsorbents for metal ions. However, the subsequent treatment of used MOFs and their reutilization still lack promising solutions. Herein, the surface-restructured Mn-doped Cu 2 O (RM-Cu 2 O) catalyst containing asymmetric Mn−Cu sites is prepared by glucose reduction using the spent Cu-based MOF (HKUST-1) as the precursor. The RM-Cu 2 O catalyst shows good potential in tunable photocatalytic syngas (CO and H 2 ) production in a pure water system. The syngas ratios can be tuned from ∼1:2 to ∼1:1 by increasing CO production. DFT calculations and photoelectrochemical tests confirm that the asymmetric Mn−Cu sites on the RM-Cu 2 O catalyst accelerate the photogenerated charge transport and optimize CO 2 adsorption and activation. In situ irradiation X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy is conducted to investigate the dynamic charge transport and reactions on the RM-Cu 2 O catalyst. Based on in situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and simulations, the mechanism of photocatalytic syngas production is elucidated. This work provides a promising solution for the resource utilization of the spent MOFs-based adsorbents and photocatalytic energy development.

In this research, we present an innovative, environmentally friendly, and cost-effective alcohothermal method for synthesizing Mn2+ and Mn2+–Cu+ doped 0D Cs3ZnCl5, a green luminescent material, marking the first time this approach has been reported. An exhaustive analysis of the luminescence properties of both undoped and doped Cs3ZnCl5 was conducted, with a particular emphasis on the energy transfer mechanisms in the Mn2+ mono-doped and Mn2+–Cu+ co-doped systems. The results demonstrate the successful construction of an efficient energy transfer pathway that significantly enhances the luminescence efficiency of Cs3ZnCl5:Mn2+. Specifically, the photoluminescence quantum yield of Mn2+ within the Cs3ZnCl5 matrix has been improved from 51.6% to 71.1%, thanks to the Cu+ codopant acting as an effective energy transfer mediator. A mechanism for the luminescence and energy transfer phenomena observed in the Mn2+–Cu+ co-doped Cs3ZnCl5 system has been also proposed. Furthermore, to assess the practical applicability of the synthesized materials, their structural and photoluminescent stability were evaluated. In essence, our study presents a promising solution to current challenges in the synthesis of advanced luminescent materials and opens up new possibilities for harnessing the potential of Mn2+-activated 0D metal halides in optoelectronic applications.

While photocatalytic technology has been recognized as an effective means for removing low-concentration NOx in ambient atmosphere, it still faces the challenge of the deep oxidation in high efficiency. In many cases, the release of more toxic NO 2 byproduct appeared to be inevitable during the photocatalytic oxidation of NO. Herein we report that the atomically dispersed MnO x cocatalyst on TiO 2 (B) microspheres could significantly enhance the deep oxidation of NOx under mild photocatalytic conditions (1 mW/cm 2 UV-A light, 1 L/min flow rate). At an initial NO concentration of 0.35 ppm, ca. 67.15% of NO is oxidized on the MT-0.5 sample, which is 2.76 times higher than the pristine TiO 2 (B) sample. More importantly, the release of NO 2 is suppressed by 2.11 times. Comprehensive spectral analyses suggest that atomically dispersed MnO x effectively promotes the charge separation of photogenerated carriers in TiO 2 (B), even better than MnO x nanoparticles-loaded TiO 2 (B). EPR and in-situ FTIR analyses illustrate that atomically dispersed MnO x -loaded TiO 2 (B) sample exhibits excellent low concentration NOx abatement performance, thus providing a rational mechanism for the NO deep oxidation pathway. This study not only provides a unique approach for preparing non-noble metal atomically dispersed co-catalysts, but also affords an effective means for efficient photocatalytic NO degradation.

Transition-metal doping in semiconductors is an important way to modulate their intrinsic properties or bring out new functionalities for applications. Here, elongated Mn-doped ZnSe1−xSx nanocrystals are synthesized through a facile one-pot reaction under mild conditions. These ZnSe1−xSx nanocrystals with a diameter of 2–4 nm have a cubic phase structure. EPR and PL spectra confirm the successful doping of Mn2+ into the ZnSe1−xSx nanocrystals, based on the corresponding hyperfine splitting constants and emission bands. The temporal evolution of UV-vis absorption and PL spectra indicates the growth-doping mechanism for the formation of the doped nanocrystals. Surface coating of these nanocrystals with a shell increases the quantum yield up to 35%. And the dual-function role of 1-dodecanethiol is confirmed in the formation of the elongated Mn-doped ZnSe1−xSx nanocrystals.

In this study, a novel electrical Mn-based film was developed for selective potassium (K+) separation, in which delaminated MnOx was obtained with the assistance of Ho3+ using a facile coprecipitation method and coated on carbon paper with poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and graphitized carbon black. With the scanning electron microscope (SEM) and transmission electron microscope (TEM) observations, it was found that abundant multiphase interfaces and lattice dislocations appeared on the bulk of Ho-MnOx. Brunauer–Emmett–Teller (BET) analysis verified that the delamination assisted by Ho3+ increased the specific surface area from 110.3 m2/g (MnOx) to 166.8 m2/g (1% Ho-MnOx), which should be beneficial for the exposing of more electrochemical active areas and active sites for K+ adsorption and separation. Particularly, 1% Ho-MnOx had a high concentration of oxygen vacancies and showed a better K+ adsorption ability than MnOx. It was considered that the adsorption of K+ was mainly affected by the ion memory toward K+ for the 1% Ho-MnOx. In addition, the 1% Ho-MnOx film had good stable retention and regeneration capability for the separation of K+; after 10 cycles of adsorption and desorption, the film still retained 87.24% of the maximum adsorption capacity for K+. It is expected to provide an effective preparation method to obtain a high-performance K+ removal film electrode for the separation of K+ under a low concentration.

Non-homogeneous ozone-catalyzed oxidation technology is one of the effective ways of treating wastewater, the core of which lies in the development of efficient ozone oxidation catalysts. This work proposes the design and synthesis of an efficient Cu/Mn/Ce multi-metal composite oxide catalyst by metal salt precursor mixing-direct granulation. The effect of metal doping on the catalyst properties was compared using Density function theory (DFT) calculations, and the Cu/Mn/Ce co-doping showed significant charge accumulation effect with a low ozonolysis energy barrier, which is more favorable for the generation of reactive oxygen species. The successful loading of the main active metal components, such as Mn, Cu, and Ce, was clarified by systematic characterization by X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller's test (BET), and the chemical oxygen demand (COD) removal could reach more than 60% for the simulated wastewater. The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) characterization clarified that the degradation of organic pollutants was mainly dominated by the combination of single-linear oxygen and superoxide radicals in the catalytic process, and the possible catalytic oxidation mechanism was proposed. This work advances the development of non-homogeneous ozone oxidation technology.

The massive stockpiling of electrolytic manganese residue (EMR) has caused serious environmental pollution. In this study, EMR, coal gangue (CG), and fly ash (FA) were used as raw materials to obtain the optimal mix ratio based on Design-Expert mixture design. The effects of activator modulus, liquid–solid (L/S) ratio, and curing temperature on the mechanical properties of geopolymers were investigated. The results showed that the compressive strength of the prepared geopolymer was 12.0 MPa, and the 28d leaching of Mn was 0.123 mg/L under the conditions of EMR:CG:FA = 0.43:0.34:0.23, L/S = 0.9, a curing temperature of 60 °C, and a curing time of 24 h. This indicates that the geopolymer is an environmentally friendly material with high compressive strength. The mineral composition of the geopolymer is mainly hydrated calcium silicate and geopolymer gel. In addition, a more stable new mineral phase, MnSiO3, was generated. The Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectrogram showed that the peak at 1100 m−1was shifted to 1112 cm−1, which indicated that a geopolymerization reaction had occurred. Through scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy dispersive spectrum (EDS) analysis, it was identified that the geopolymerization produced a large amount of amorphous gelatinous substances with a relatively dense structure, the major elements being oxygen, silicon, aluminum, calcium, and sodium.

This study employed the hydrothermal method to dope Mn into Sn 3 O 4 , which was then combined with g-C 3 N 4 through calcination to prepare an II-type Mn-Sn 3 O 4 -x/CN composite photocatalyst. The impact of Mn-Sn 3 O 4 loading on the photocatalytic performance was discussed. The synthesized composite catalysts exhibited remarkable hydrogen production performance under visible light, with Mn-Sn 3 O 4 -10/CN demonstrating the highest performance. Characterization techniques confirmed the successful preparation of the catalysts, and the light absorption capacity, charge separation and transport efficiency of Mn-Sn 3 O 4 -10/CN are significantly improved compared to catalysts with other ratios. This study developed a Mn-Sn 3 O 4 -x/CN composite catalyst with high stability and good hydrogen production rate. It provides further directions for the research of g-C 3 N 4 -based composite catalysts.

Microwave-assisted processing has shown tremendous promise in accelerating chemical reactions and reducing energy consumption through targeted dielectric heating. This study develops MOF-derived Mn-Co and Ce-Co oxide catalysts for energy-efficient benzene oxidation via microwave catalysis. The MnCo spinel oxides (particularly MnCo11-400) exhibit superior microwave absorption and catalytic activity due to enhanced oxygen mobility and tailored dielectric properties. Microwave irradiation enables rapid benzene mineralization over the MnCo11-400 catalyst, achieving 78% conversion at 30 W and complete conversion at 50 W, demonstrating exceptional energy efficiency at low power inputs. Microwaves significantly lower the reaction temperature compared to conventional thermal catalysis (ΔT = 100–250 °C). Stability tests confirm robustness over repeated power cycling (80% conversion retained after 3 × 1 h on/off cycles). Furthermore, an adsorption–microwave oxidation synergistic strategy is demonstrated: pre-adsorbed low-concentration benzene (1.15 mmol) at ambient temperature undergoes complete mineralization within 20 min under 30 W microwave irradiation. The intermittent microwave operation achieves equivalent benzene removal to continuous thermal processing while significantly reducing energy demand. This work establishes MOF-derived spinel oxides as high-performance microwave catalysts for low-temperature VOC abatement.
