A novel nanobiosensor was constructed by in situ locating nanometer MnO 2 particles with controllable size and morphology in a Zr-MOF substrate to serve as an electrochemical probe. The synergistic effect of the two components, Zr-MOFs with high specific surface area and compatibility as a carrier for MnO 2 , resulted in improved electrochemical activity and excellent electrochemical identification performance for the MnO 2 @Zr-MOF/GCE biosensor. Under optimized experimental conditions and using CV and DPV technology, the biosensor showed a wide linear detection range (2–200 μM), a low detection limit (2.577 × 10 −8 M), a recovery range (106.26–115.01%), and maximum relative standard deviation (5.155) for tetracycline (TC) identification. The recognition mechanism of the sensor was investigated adopting Laviron adsorption theory. The applicability of the sensor was verified through practical measurements. Overall, the MnO 2 @Zr-MOF/GCE sensor possesses the advantages of fast analysis speed, high sensitivity, high selectivity, and simple operation, making it suitable for detecting trace amounts of TC in food.

Au@Pt nanozyme, a bimetallic core–shell structure Au and Pt nanoparticle, has attracted significant attention due to its excellent catalytic activity and stability. Here, we propose that Au@Pt improves glucose tolerance and reduces TG after four weeks administration. The transcriptomic analysis of mouse liver tissues treated with Au@Pt nanozyme showed changes in genes related to glucose and lipid metabolism signaling pathways, including glycolysis/gluconeogenesis, pyruvate metabolism, PPAR signaling, and insulin signaling. Moreover, analysis of fecal samples from mice treated with Au@Pt nanozyme showed significant changes in the abundance of beneficial gut microbiota such as Dubosiella , Parvibacter , Enterorhabdus , Monoglobus , Lachnospiraceae_UCG-008 , Lachnospiraceae_UCG-006 , Lachnospiraceae_UCG-001 , and Christensenellaceae_R-7_group . Combined multi-omics correlation analyses revealed that the modulation of glucose and lipid metabolism by Au@Pt was strongly correlated with changes in hepatic gene expression profiles as well as changes in gut microbial profiles. Overall, our integrated multi-omics analysis demonstrated that Au@Pt nanozyme could modulate glucose and lipid metabolism by regulating the expression of key genes in the liver and altering the composition of gut microbiota, providing new insights into the potential applications of Au@Pt nanozyme in the treatment of metabolic disorder.

Background Environmentally responsive nanoscale biocide delivery system enhances smart, regulated, and synergistic biocide application with precise biocide release. In this study, pectin-modified dendritic mesoporous silica nanoparticles (DMSNs) was used as a carrier to successfully construct a microenvironment-responsive (pH, temperature and enzyme) eugenol nano-biocide delivery system for the control of Ralstonia solanacearum infection. Results The results showed that the specific surface area, pore size and surface activity of DMSNs significantly influence the biocide loading of eugenol, and the biocide loading capability was up to 72.50%. Eu@DMSNs/Pec had significant pH and pectinase stimulating effects, with varying release amounts under different temperature conditions. Compared with eugenol alone, Eu@DMSNs/Pec significantly enhanced the efficacy of eugenol. DMSNs assisted eugenol to induce peroxidation damage, produce ROS (•O 2 − , •OH and 1 O 2 ), achieve synergistic antibacterial effects, and had better rain erosion resistance and foliar retention rate based on pectin wettability and adhesion. Eu@DMSNs/Pec-FITC showed demonstrated efficient transport characteristics in tomato roots, stems and leaves, which enhanced the control effect on tomato bacterial wilt. In addition, Eu@DMSNs/Pec exert minimal influence on tomato seed germination and root growth, and have low toxicity to non-target organisms such as earthworms. Therefore, Eu@DMSNs/Pec environment-responsive nano-controlled release nanocarrier can effectively achieve accurate biocide release and reduce biocide dosage. Conclusion This work not only provides a pectin-modified DMSNs-based eugenol nanoscale biocide delivery system in response to specific environmental conditions of R. solanacearum infection but also elucidates the eugenol biocide loading, selective release ability and antibacterial mechanism of the system.

Using multifunctional nanocomposites for multiple therapeutic approaches has emerged as an innovative cancer treatment strategy. Chemotherapy and chemodynamic therapy (CDT) have many benefits for cancer therapy, in which have great significance to develop nanocomposites that enable chemotherapy/CDT combined treatment. Herein, in situ co-precipitation method was used to load curcumin (Cur) into layered double hydroxide (LDH). Then, the Cur/LDH was assembled with carbon nitride quantum dots (CNQDs) through electrostatic adsorption. Acidic microenvironment–responsive nanocomposite (Cur/LDH/CNQDs) was constructed and used for tumor treatment. The as-synthesized Cur/LDH/CNQDs exhibits good biocompatibility and chemodynamic properties. In addition, the releases of Fe(II) ions (78%) and Cur (85%) are accelerated under acidic pH conditions that mimic the tumor microenvironment. The results show that the combination of chemotherapy and CDT can enhance its tumor-killing ability compared with single therapy. In essence, Cur/LDH/CNQDs shows a good effect in combined chemotherapy/CDT treatment of tumor cells and provide a promising alternative for combined tumor therapy.

Metallic Tin (Sn) is an attractive anode material for aqueous batteries due to its high theoretical capacity, low redox potential and strong corrosion resistance. However, the uneven deposition of Sn and severe interfacial side reactions limit its wide application. Herein, a nanoscale fullerene (C 60 ) coating on a Sn anode has been developed by the physical evaporation deposition technology to eliminate complicated side reactions. This coating improves the homogeneity of the Sn anode surface electric field, and reduces the formation of "dead tin". As a result, the C 60 -coated Sn anode can maintain a low voltage hysteresis cycle for more than 850 h. The aqueous NiO//Sn cell encapsulated by this anode achieves a maximum specific discharge capacity of 79.3 mAh·g −1 at a current density of 1.5 A·g −1 . Moreover, as a proof of concept, we propose an aqueous electrochromic Sn battery, which can realize energy storage and reversibly color switch, yielding favorable optical modulation of about 61.1% at 523 nm. This work has developed a cost-effective and high-reliability interfacial engineering strategy that boosts practical uses of Sn metal electrodes, as well as promotes the application of innovative aqueous rechargeable batteries with electrochromic properties.

Anti-bacterial materials play significant role in biomedical field. Researches and applications of new anti-bacterial materials are necessary. Novel linear and star-shaped copolymers of poly(caprolactone)-poly(quaternary ammonium salt) (PCL-PJDMA) were synthesized by a combination of ring-opening polymerization and atom transfer radical polymerization. The structures of the copolymers were confirmed by nuclear magnetic resonance ( 1 H-NMR) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The copolymers self-assembled into ball-shaped micelles with low critical micelle concentration (10 −4 ∼10 −3 mg/ml). An anti-bacterial drug, triclosan, was chosen as a model drug to investigate the potential application of the copolymers in drug-controlled release. The anti-bacterial experiments against Escherichia coli indicated that all the copolymer micelles had anti-bacterial ability and drug-loaded star-shaped PCL-PJDMA micelles were the best. The slow release of the drug from the drug-loaded micelles prolonged anti-bacterial effect. Therefore, PCL-PJDMA themselves have not only anti-bacterial ability but also the copolymer micelles can be used as carriers for anti-bacterial drugs.

The growth of atomically dispersed metal catalysts (ADMCs) remains a great challenge owing to the thermodynamically driven atom aggregation. Here we report a surface-limited electrodeposition technique that uses site-specific substrates for the rapid and room-temperature synthesis of ADMCs. We obtained ADMCs by the underpotential deposition of a non-noble single-atom metal onto the chalcogen atoms of transition metal dichalcogenides and subsequent galvanic displacement with a more-noble single-atom metal. The site-specific electrodeposition enables the formation of energetically favorable metal–support bonds, and then automatically terminates the sequential formation of metallic bonding. The self-terminating effect restricts the metal deposition to the atomic scale. The modulated ADMCs exhibit remarkable activity and stability in the hydrogen evolution reaction compared to state-of-the-art single-atom electrocatalysts. We demonstrate that this methodology could be extended to the synthesis of a variety of ADMCs (Pt, Pd, Rh, Cu, Pb, Bi, and Sn), showing its general scope for functional ADMCs manufacturing in heterogeneous catalysis.

Cation solvation is well understood in the bulk solution phase, but knowledge is limited regarding the electrode–electrolyte interface. The process by which cation solvation conforms to the interfacial field to form interphases remains unclear. Here we examine the synergistic effects of external and intramolecular fields on accommodating Li + solvates to the Li-metal anode, leading to dielectric-mediated transfer dynamics on the interface. At charged interfaces, cation–anion pairs arrange in a periodic oscillatory distribution. A low-oscillation amplitude exacerbates the electrolyte decomposition and increases surface impedance. We propose a dielectric protocol that maintains cation–anion coordination with a high oscillation amplitude at the interfaces, addressing these issues. Accordingly, we demonstrate a Li-metal pouch cell with an energy density of 500 Wh kg −1 at the Ah level using an ultra-lean electrolyte (1 g Ah −1 ). Our study offers insights into solid/liquid interfaces that are crucial in advancing battery technologies.

Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is an irreversible lung condition that progresses over time, which ultimately results in respiratory failure and mortality. In this study, we found that PLAC8 was downregulated in the lungs of IPF patients based on GEO data, in bleomycin (BLM)-induced lungs of mice, and in primary murine alveolar epithelial type II (pmATII) cells and human lung epithelial cell A549 cells. Overexpression of PLAC8 facilitated autophagy and inhibited apoptosis of pmATII cells and A549 cells in vitro. Moreover, inhibition of autophagy or overexpression of p53 partially abolished the effects of PLAC8 on cell apoptosis. ATII cell-specific overexpression of PLAC8 alleviated BLM-induced pulmonary fibrosis in mice. Mechanistically, PLAC8 interacts with VCP-UFD1-NPLOC4 complex to promote p53 degradation and facilitate autophagy, resulting in inhibiting apoptosis of alveolar epithelial cells and attenuating pulmonary fibrosis. In summary, these findings indicate that PLAC8 may be a key target for therapeutic interventions in pulmonary fibrosis.

The precise placement of thioester bonds into sequence-controlled polymers remains a grand challenge. Here, we demonstrate the versatile synthesis of sequence-controlled polymers from the step polymerization of cyclic thioanhydrides ( A ), diacrylates ( B ), and diols/diamines ( C ). In addition to easily accessible diverse monomers, the method is metal-free/catalyst-free, atom-economical, and wide in monomer scope, yielding 107 polymers with >90% yields and weight-average molecular weights of up to 175.4 kDa. The obtained polymers contain ABAC -type repeating units and precisely distributed in-chain thioester and ester (and amide) groups. The chemoselectivity of the polymerization is revealed by density functional theory calculations. The polymer library exhibits considerably tunable performance: glass-transition temperatures of −36–72 °C, melting temperatures of 43–133 °C, degradability, thermoplastics/elastomers, and thioester-based functions. This study furnishes a facile method to precisely incorporate thioester bonds into sequence-controlled polymers.

Fogging on agricultural greenhouse covering films reduces solar transmission, resulting in insufficient photosynthetically active radiation and hindering crop growth. In this study, a long-acting antifogging composite film was developed by incorporating diatomite (DE) and sorbitan tristearate (STS) into low-density polyethylene (LDPE). The introduction of STS enabled the surface of LDPE to undergo a transition from hydrophobic to hydrophilic. The film has the ability of preventing fogging and increasing solar irradiation inside the greenhouse by 15%. On the 30th day of the hot fog test, the failure area of the film was only 20%, and the introduction of DE reduced the diffusion coefficient of STS from 0.2 to 0.06 cm 2 min −1 . Rheological properties and crystallinity testing revealed the interaction mechanism between STS and LDPE molecules. Greenhouse cultivation experiments showed that the chlorophyll content of Chinese cabbage ( Brassica rapa ssp. chinensis ) and spinach ( Spinacia oleracea ) grown under the antifogging film increased by 24% and 30%, respectively. This antifogging film can be produced on a large scale using the casting method and offers significant potential for improving the quality of greenhouse crops.

Preservatives can be used in natural and organic cosmetics to prevent quality deterioration during distribution and use, but the ingredients permitted are limited in the Republic of Korea. A method of simultaneous analysis was developed to monitor natural and organic cosmetics distributed online for the presence of 15 illegally used preservatives. Considering the complexities of the cosmetic matrices, an optimized sample preparation method is essential. Therefore, we developed the optimal purification method by comparing three preparation methods: QuEChERS, high-speed centrifugation, and solid-phase extraction (SPE). The SPE method, which exhibited the most favorable results in matrix reduction, was employed. To establish the SPE-ultra-high-performance liquid chromatography-diode array detection method, factors such as the mobile phase and column were optimized. The optimal separation of the 15 preservatives was observed under the following conditions: mobile phase A comprising 0.1% phosphoric acid in water with 0.5 mM sodium hexanesulfonate and a C 8 column (1.7 μm, 2.1 × 150 mm) as the stationary phase. The linear correlation coefficients were > 0.9998, and the limits of detection and quantitation ranged from 0.05 to 0.67 and 0.15 to 2.02 μg mL −1 , respectively. Using the established analytical method, illegally used preservatives were detected in products claimed to be natural and organic cosmetics sold on the market, and these findings were subsequently verified using liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry. Six out of 47 samples contained phenoxyethanol and parabens. Therefore, this method will help manage the addition of illegal preservatives to natural and organic cosmetics.
