Multi-component pollutant-oil-water emulsion from the fast-growing industry seriously threatens the human health and ecological environment, which poses a huge challenge to membrane technology. Recently, 2D MXene materials have shown promising and potential candidates for functional separation membranes . Herein, for the first time, a multitasking hierarchical MXene@UIO-66-(COOH) 2 composite membrane supported on nylon 66 microporous substrate was designed via a facial strategy, which possessed high chemical stability and efficient multi-component pollutant-oil-water emulsion separation performance. The promising synergistic separation performance of various oil-in-water emulsions and dye, high antifouling resistance, and excellent recyclability of MXene@UIO-66-(COOH) 2 composite membrane originated from the inherent hydrophilicity , low oil adhesion feature, and hierarchical intercalation structure of membrane. Furthermore, the chemically stable MXene@UIO-66-(COOH) 2 composite membrane exhibited outstanding corrosion resistance under strong acid (3 M HCl), alkali (1 M NaOH) and salty (Saturated NaCl) solutions. Therefore, this work provides a powerful platform for designing stable and functional 2D membrane materials for multi-component pollutant-oil-water emulsion separation in harsh chemical environments.

Tanshinone IIA has a potential therapeutic effect on cerebral ischemia/reperfusion injury (CIRI). In this study, tanshinone IIA was encapsulated in poly(lactic- co -glycolic acid)-block-poly (ethylene glycol)-carboxylic acid (PLGA-PEG-COOH) nanoparticles, and its therapeutic efficacy on CIRI was investigated. Morphology and dynamic light scattering analyses were performed to identify and optimize nano-formulations. A drug release test was conducted using the dialysis method. The cytotoxic effect of tanshinone IIA on human neuroblastoma cells (SH-SY5Y) and brain endothelial capillary cells (hCMEC/D3) was measured using the MTT assay. The protective effect of PLGA-PEG-COOH-encapsulated tanshinone IIA against CIRI was evaluated in oxygen and glucose deprivation/reoxygenation-induced SH-SY5Y/IR cells and middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) rats. Results showed that PLGA-PEG-COOH-encapsulated tanshinone IIA promoted viability and inhibited apoptosis of SH-SY5Y/IR cells ( P < 0.01). Moreover, PLGA-PEG-COOH-encapsulated tanshinone IIA facilitated the invasion of SH-SY5Y/IR cells and repressed inflammation in MCAO rats ( P < 0.01). Noteworthy, PLGA-PEG-COOH-encapsulated tanshinone IIA combined with angiopep-2 peptide presented a better inhibitory effect on CIRI than tanshinone IIA alone ( P < 0.01). Angiopep-2 peptide contributes to traversing blood–brain barrier by recognizing lipoprotein-related protein expressed in the brain capillary endothelial cells. In conclusion, PLGA-PEG-COOH-encapsulated tanshinone IIA plus angiopep-2 peptide holds promising therapeutic potential toward CIRI.

The global water pollution problem is increasingly severe, and the wastewater separation technology has received high attention. Polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) fiber membranes have a great potential in wastewater treatment. However, its large pore size and high porosity lead to low retention rate and high contamination, which make it impossible to reuse. In this study, it was assumed that the modified nanoparticles CNTs-COOH@TA were prepared by modifying CNTs with tannic acid (TA) through π-π conjugation, and were used as the support layer of the PVDF matrix by electrostatic spinning. The chitosan hydrogel was tightly bound to the PVDF-CNTs-COOH@TA nanofiber support through hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interaction to confer the strong hydrophilicity on the surface of the composite fiber membranes, and the composite PVDF-CNTs-COOH@TA-CS membranes should have excellent performance in PVDF water treatment. The PVDF-CNTs-COOH@TA-CS composite fiber membrane should have high hydrophilicity, high retention rate and reusability. Compared to other separation membranes, the composite membranes achieved effective separation of the oil-in-water emulsion and the dye wastewater while maintaining the rapid permeation of the aqueous phase. The pure water flux of the optimum CS3 composite membrane was 1907.8 Lm -2 h -1 bar -1 , which could completely separate oil-in-water emulsion and retain more than 90% of dyes. In addition, the flux recovery rate (FRR) of the CS3 composite membrane was still more than 86.8% after five cycles, and which had a good antifouling ability. The maximum tensile strength of CS3 increased by 279.7% over PVDF fiber membrane. This innovative approach based on synergistic modification of natural materials provides new ideas for the development of efficient and environmentally friendly wastewater treatment technologies.

The modification of ionic liquid electrolytes is of particular importance for the development of high-performance electrochemical oxygen sensors with zero power consumption but still quite challenging. Herein, we designed and synthesized an electrochemical oxygen sensor based on the modified Pt/CMK-3-COOH-[EMIM][OAc] ionic liquid as composite electrolyte, where the -COOH functional group was introduced by acidifying CMK to provide hydrogen protons, and then Pt nanoparticles with different contents were loaded to improve the activity of the sensor towards O 2 gas as well as the conductivity of ionic liquid. Such composite ionic liquid sensor exhibits excellent O 2 detection ability with high sensitivity (0.58 μA/[%O 2 ]), high stability, wide detection range (0.4-10%), and zero-power consumption, along with the detection limit as low as 0.4%. Furthermore, it has humidity-independent gas-sensing characteristic. Moreover, density functional theory (DFT) calculations combined with experimental results were applied to deeply unveil the improved O 2 sensing mechanism. Compared with CMK, the introduction of Pt/CMK-3-COOH material increases the conductivity of the ionic liquid, decreases the adsorption energy of the sensor for O 2 and hydrogen protons, promotes the oxygen reduction reaction, and simulates the transfer of effective charge, thereby significantly improving O 2 sensing. This work provides a high-performance ionic liquid oxygen sensor, showing potential application in zero-power consumption and low concentration O 2 detection.

This study integrates UiO-66-COOH metal–organic frameworks (MOFs) with pectin (Pec) to precisely release potassium cinnamate (PC) to develop a pectinase-responsive active fruit-preservation system (UiO-66-COOH@PC/Pec). Carboxylated UiO-66 with nanoporosity was fabricated to achieve a high loading amount of PC (235 mg·g −1 ) via the synergistic effects of hydrogen bonding, as shown by the loading kinetics and reduced density gradient analyses. A gatekeeper was established by grafting Pec onto the surface of the MOF (UiO-66-COOH@PC/Pec), thereby “locking” PC to prevent leakage. Moreover, an enzyme-responsive controlled-release behavior was developed under pectinase stimulation, achieving up to 95 % PC release within 9 h through Fickian diffusion and only 25.3 % in enzyme-free conditions by non-Fickian diffusion and matrix erosion. With significant long-term inhibiting activity against both bacteria and fungi, UiO-66-COOH@PC/Pec successfully extended the shelf life of strawberries from 2 to 5 days at 25 °C. Moreover, UiO-66-COOH@PC/Pec exhibited good water solubility and negligible toxicity, indicating that it can be easily removed from fruit surfaces and offers high consumer acceptance. These results provide a novel MOF-based controlled-release strategy for smart food-packaging applications.

Magnetic solid-phase extraction (MSPE) technology for tetracycline (TCC) was developed by employing the novel and pre-designed Fe 3 O 4 –COOH@hydrogen-bonded organic frameworks (HOFs) adsorbents in complex food samples. The HOF shell was grown onto the Fe 3 O 4 –COOH core by in-situ self-assembled method. The excellent MSPE performances with less solvent, less adsorbent and time consumption were derived from the hydrogen bonding, π-π and hydrophobic interactions between HOF shell and TCC. Combined with HPLC analysis, Fe 3 O 4 @ HOFs adsorbent reduced matrix effects and the established MSPE-HPLC method for TCC gave the linearity of 0.001–6 μg mL −1 with the limit of detection 0.0003 μg mL −1 . The recoveries in pure milk, canned yellow peach and carrot were 82.4–103.7 %. The method provided a simple, efficient and dependable alternative to monitor trace TCC antibiotics in food or environmental samples.

The GO-COOH/AuNPs/ZnAPTPP nanocomposites were constructed using zinc monoamino porphyrin (ZnAPTPP) through π–π conjugation with carboxylated graphene oxide (GO-COOH) loaded with Au nanoparticles (AuNPs). Prepared materials were characterized by 1 H NMR spectra, UV–vis absorption spectroscopy and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy . ITO electrode surface was modified with the prepared nanocomposites showed a good photocurrent response when the bias potential, −0.1 V was applied. Nanocomposites modified ITO electrode exhibited good photo-response to the 4-nitrophenol (4-NP). ZnAPTPP were excited from HOMO to LUMO under light irradiation , the photoexcited electrons injected into the conduction band of GO-COOH, and then transferred to AuNPs further to the ITO. The presence of GO-COOH and AuNPs improved the separation of photogenerated charges due to their synergetic effect and excellent conductivity. Externally added 4-NP scavenges the photogenerated holes i.e. it acts as a sacrificial electron donor thereby it enhances the photocurrent of the system. Based on this interaction, a novel method for photoelectrochemical detection of 4-NP was developed with a linear range from 0.1 to 15 nmol/L (r = 0.996) and detection limit of 0.04 nmol/L (S/N = 3). Proposed method is simple and sensitive and this was successfully applied for the quantification 4-NP in river water sample matrices.

Targeted drug delivery to colon cancer cells can significantly improve the efficiency of treatment. We firstly synthesized carboxyl-modified mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSN–COOH) via two-step synthesis, and then developed calcium leucovorin (LV)-loaded carboxyl-modified mesoporous silica nanoparticles based on galactosylated chitosan (GC), which are galectin receptor-mediated materials for colon-specific drug delivery systems. Both unmodified and functionalized nanoparticles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscope (TEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), nitrogen sorption, and dynamic light scattering (DLS). Drug release properties and drug loading capacity were determined by ultraviolet spectrophotometry (UV).[email protected]–COOH/GC had a high LV loading and a drug loading of 18.07%. In vitro, its release, mainly by diffusion, was sustained release. Cell experiments showed that in SW620 cells with the galectin receptor, the[email protected]–COOH/GC metabolized into methyl tetrahydrofolic acid (MTHF) and 5-fluorouracil (5-FU)@MSN–NH2/GC metabolized into FdUMP in vivo. MTHF and 5-fluoro-2′-deoxyuridine 5′-monophosphate (FdUMP) had combined inhibition and significantly downregulated the expression of thymidylate synthase (TS). Fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry experiments show that MSN–COOH/GC has tumor cell targeting, which specifically recognizes and binds to the galectin receptor in tumor cells. The results show that the nano-dosing system based on GC can increase the concentrations of LV and 5-FU tumor cells and enhance their combined effect against colon cancer.Keywords:calcium leucovorin;MSN–COOH;galactosylated chitosan (GC);[email protected]–COOH/GC;galectin receptor;SW620 cells

Aflatoxin B1 (AFB1), one of the most common mycotoxins in food matrixes, has been identified as the most toxic contaminant with mutagenic, teratogenic, immunosuppressive, and carcinogenic effects. In this study, an electrochemical aptamer sensor was developed for the on-site detection of AFB1. Carboxylated graphene oxide (COOH–GO) and carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (COOH–MWNT) nanocomposites, dopamine polymers (pDA) and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were used to enhance the electrochemical activity and the biocompatibility of the screen-printed electrodes (SPE). Once AFB1 was captured by the aptamer immobilized on the electrode surface, the redox current of [Fe(CN)6]3−/4− decreased. Therefore, the binding of aptamer (Apt) and AFB1 can be reflected by the change of the peak current. The as-prepared sensor showed a wide detection range of 0.1 fg ml−1–100 pg ml−1 and a low detection limit of 15.16 ag ml−1. It is also simple and low-cost, which shows great potential in practical application.

Problems occurring in oilfields after secondary oil recovery can include low oil content, difficulty in tracing, and high production costs. The use of two-dimensional nanomaterials can improve the efficiency of oil exploration and extraction. In this study, we designed a new nanofluid based on lecithin-modified MXene (lecithin@MXene-COOH) for directional oil extraction and tertiary oil recovery. MXene has good interfacial affinity, and 0.02 % lecithin@MXene-COOH can be effectively enriched at the oil–water interface. The nanofluid based on lecithin@MXene-COOH has excellent emulsifying properties, and we found that the optimal formulation has an emulsifying volume of 12.8 mL. The efficient enrichment of lecithin@MXene-COOH at the oil–water interface means that it can effectively define the position of oil droplets. The lecithin@MXene-COOH nanofluid has excellent oil displacement effect, and can efficiently drive oil, with an improvement of recovery efficiency of up to 15.95 % after the traditional flooding stage. This research has developed a new application of MXene-based nanomaterials, and the lecithin@MXene-COOH nanofluid is predicted to have a successful future in the field of oilfield tracing and extraction.

1-Carboxymethyl-3-methylimidazolium hydrochloride ([IMIM–COOH]Cl), a new ionic salt, is proposed as a green, promising solvent for dissolving chitosan. However, because of the optimal dosage of chitosan dissolved in [IMIM–COOH]Cl, a 12 wt % [IMIM–COOH]Cl aqueous solution was selected as an optimum solvent system for dissolving chitosan. The structures of the original and regenerated chitosan were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction analysis. Scanning electron microscopy was used to visualize the morphological features of the reconstituted chitosan membranes. Meanwhile, the absorbance, tensile strength, and breaking elongation of the chitosan membranes were measured. The results reveal that 10–11 wt % was an optimal chitosan concentration for preparing membranes. Furthermore, the adsorption capacity for Cu(II) ion of the chitosan membranes was increased with the chitosan concentration decreased from 12 to 8 wt %. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J. Appl. Polym.

Any surface immersed in sea water will suffer from marine fouling, including underwater sound absorption coatings. Traditional underwater sound absorption coatings rely heavily on the use of toxic, biocide-containing paints to combat biofouling. In this paper, an environmentally-friendly nanocomposite with integrated antifouling and underwater sound absorption properties was fabricated by adopting MWCNTs-COOH and SiO2into PDMS at different ratios. SEM, FTIR and XPS results demonstrated MWCNTs were mixed into PDMS, and the changes in elements were also analyzed. SiO2nanoparticles in PDMS decreased the tensile properties of the coating, while erosion resistance was enhanced. Antibacterial properties of the coatings containing MWCNTs-COOH and SiO2at a ratio of 1:1, 1:3, and 1:5 reached 62.02%, 72.36%, and 74.69%, respectively. In the frequency range of 1500–5000 Hz, the average sound absorption coefficient of PDMS increased from 0.5 to greater than 0.8 after adding MWCNTs-COOH and SiO2, which illustrated that the addition of nanoparticles enhanced the underwater sound absorption performance of the coating. Incorporating MWCNTs-COOH and SiO2nanoparticles into the PDMS matrix to improve its sound absorption and surface antifouling properties provides a promising idea for marine applications.
