A test strip has been developed for the rapid detection of the illegal additive ethyl anthranilate (EA) in wine. The detection scheme is based on a combination of photonic crystal based detection and molecular imprinting based recognition. The resulting molecularly imprinted photonic crystal (MIPC) undergoes a gradual color change from green to yellow to red upon binding of EA. A semi-quantitative colorimetric card can be used to estimate the content of EA, either visually or by making use of an optical fiber spectrometer. A linear relationship was found between the Bragg diffraction peak shift and the concentration of EA in the range from 0.1 mM to 10 mM. The detection limit is 10 μM. The test has been successfully used to screening for the presence of EA in grape wine. The test strip is selective, and can be re-used after re-activation.

Molybdenum disulfide quantum dots (MoS 2 QDs) were chosen as a functional two-dimensional material to improve the separation performance of a traditional C18 column. In this work, MoS 2 QDs were synthesized by the combination of sonication and solvothermal treatment of bulk MoS 2 . The prepared MoS 2 QDs were characterized by transmission electron microscope (TEM), Zeta potential measurement, UV-visible absorption and fluorescence spectroscopy. Then, a novel MoS 2 QDs embedded C18 (Sil-MoS 2 -C18) stationary phase was prepared for performing mixed-mode liquid chromatography. The results of elemental analysis (EA), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared spectrometry (FT-IR), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), scanning electron microscope (SEM) and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) measurements indicated the stationary phase was prepared successfully. Five types of compounds including alkylbenzenes, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), nucleosides and nucleobases, anilines and flavonoids were utilized to evaluate reversed phase, weak cation exchange and hydrophilic interaction of the new column. To a certain extent, the column could achieve separation for different properties of samples on one column, with less organic solvent and shorter time than conventional alkyl and amino columns. Furthermore, the mechanism for separation was studied by investigating effects of mobile phase composition and pH on retentions. In summary, the Sil-MoS 2 -C18 stationary phase was deemed able to serve the performance of various types of phases, which revealed the prepared mixed-mode column could be potentially applied for the analysis of complex samples.

In our previously studies, we confirmed that ergosterol could ameliorate diabetic nephropathy by suppressing the proliferation of mesangial cells and the accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM). However, the therapeutic application of ergosterol may be confined due to poor aqueous solubility and low oral bioavailability. We aim to prepare ergosterol-loaded nanostructured lipid carriers (ERG-NLCs) to enhance the solubility and oral bioavailability of ergosterol. ERG-NLCs were prepared using glyceryl monostearate and decanoyl/octanoyl-glycerides by hot emulsification–ultrasonication method and characterized by dynamic light scattering (DLS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) analysis, entrapment efficiency (EE), and drug loading (DL) capacity studies. The prepared ERG-NLCs were spherical, with particle size of 81.39 nm and negative zeta potential of 30.77 mV. Ergosterol was successfully encapsulated in NLCs with a high EE of 92.95% and a DL capacity of 6.51%. In pharmacokinetic study, C max and AUC 0-∞ of ergosterol in ERG-NLCs were obviously enhanced, and the relative oral bioavailability of ERG-NLCs was 277.56% higher than that of raw ergosterol. Moreover, the in vitro pharmacodynamic study indicated that ERG-NLCs inhibited high-glucose-stimulated mesangial cells over proliferation and ECM accumulation more effectively compared to raw ergosterol. In conclusion, the validated ERG-NLCs showed that NLCs mediated delivery could be used as potential vehicle to enhance solubility, oral bioavailability and therapeutic efficacy of ergosterol.

Boron nitride nanosheets (BNNSs) and related polyimide (PI)/BNNSs composite films are synthesized by a molten salt intercalation-mechanical assisted stripping method and an in situ method respectively. The structures and morphologies of BNNSs and PI/BNNSs composite film were characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FT-IR). The thermsal stability and electrical properties of the PI/BNNSs composite film were further investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TG), dynamic mechniacal anlysis (DMA), insulation resistance tester, withstand voltage tester, broadband dielectric–impedance spectroscopy and corona resistance system (CRS) separately. For example, the corona resistance lifetime of PI/2.5BNNSs composite film is 36 min, which is 24 times than that of pure PI film. The result indicates that BNNSs, as a two-dimension material with high aspect ratio and the anisotropic characteristic, can be applied as one corona-resistant material.

In this work, a graphene oxide-based composite (DABP-GO) was prepared by aminating graphene oxide (GO) with the diazonium salt of 4,4′-diaminobiphenyl (DABP). The DABP-GO composite was characterized by scanning electron microscopy, infrared spectroscopy, and nitrogen adsorption-desorption. The DABP-GO showed to be an effective solid-phase extraction (SPE) adsorbent for carbamate pesticides. A SPE method with the DABP-GO as the adsorbent combined with high-performance liquid chromatography with ultraviolet detection was established to determine trace carbamate residues in vegetable samples (benincasahispida and pakchoi). Under the optimal conditions, the linear range was from 1.0 to 40.0 ng g −1 . The limits of detection and limits of quantitation of the six carbamates (metolcarb, arprocarb, carbaryl, isoprocarb, fenobcarb, and diethofencarb) were 0.3–0.5 ng g −1 and 0.9–1.5 ng g −1 for benincasahispida sample and 0.5–1.0 ng g −1 and 1.5–3.0 ng g −1 for pakchoi sample, respectively. The relative standard deviations (RSDs) for the intra-day precision at the analyte concentration of 40 ng g −1 are from 2.3 to 8.2% ( n = 5) and the inter-day RSDs ( n = 5) are from 4.5 to 9.2%.

Abstract Methyl pyruvate (MPA) was synthesized from dihydroxyacetone (DHA), the oxidation product of glycerol, over Sn-β and TS-1 hybrid molecular sieves at low temperature. Sn-β and TS-1 provide the active sites for conversion of DHA to methyl lactate (MLA) and oxidation of MLA to MPA, respectively. Synergism of Lewis acid sites on Sn-β and TS-1 realize the production of MPA from DHA. After optimization, 71% yield of MPA can be obtained under 50 °C. This is the first report for the synthesis of MPA from DHA directly. Graphic Abstract

Multicolor emissive carbon dots (M-CDs) have tremendous potential applications in manifold fields of bioimaging, biomedicine and light-emitting devices. Until now, it is still difficult to produce fluorescence tunable CDs with high quantum yield across the entire visible spectra. In this work, a type of M-CDs with concentration-tunable fluorescence and solvent-affected aggregation states was synthesized by solvothermal treatment of citric acid (CA) and 1-(2-pyridylazo)-2-naphthol (PAN) and the formation mechanism was monitored by different reaction time and raw material ratio. The fluorescence spectra of M-CDs in organic solvents can range from 350 to 750 nm by adjusting the concentration. M-CDs possess different aggregation states in water and organic solvents, accompanied by different fluorescence emission, which is attributed to the different surface states of various component CDs in M-CDs. Moreover, the obtained products can be uniformly dispersed into polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) solutions as well as epoxy resins to fabricate transparent CDs/PMMA films and CDs/epoxy composites, which can effectively prevent the aggregation and produce multicolor and white light-emitting diodes (WLED). In addition, the prepared WLED with Commission Internationale de L’Eclairage (CIE) of (0.29, 0.31) by using M-CDs/epoxy resin as packages, demonstrating the M-CDs exhibit potential applications for light-emitting devices.

Rampant use of tetracycline in animal feed is a threat to food security, the environment, and human health because of the risk of drug residues. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a sensitive, efficient, and reliable method for qualitative and quantitative detection of tetracycline. In this paper, we synthesized fluorescent carbon dots (FCDs) by thermal cracking of crab shell waste, and obtained a fluorescence quantum yield of 30%. Characterization of the FCDs by transmission electron microscopy, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet visible absorption spectroscopy, and photoluminescence spectroscopy showed that they were fluorescent and evenly distributed with an average size of approximately 10 nm. We designed a sensitive probe for detecting tetracycline using the fluorescence intensity change of the FCDs. This method is sensitive, inexpensive, and environmentally friendly. The concentration of tetracycline was examined by comparing the fluorescence intensities of the FCDs before and after tetracycline addition. The limit of detection for tetracycline was 0.005 mg/L (signal-to-noise ratio = 3), which is promising for method development.

Proline-rich antimicrobial peptides (PR-AMPs) have attracted much interest as they target Gram-negative and do not act by lytic mechanisms. In this study, a novel hybrid peptide OM19R was designed based on the Oncocin and MDAP-2. OM19R showed specific and improved potency against Escherichia coli ( E. coli ), Salmonella and Shigella standard strains compared to parental peptides. The minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) ranged from 1 to 2 μM. However, the activity against Klebsiella pneumoniae ( K. pneumoniae ) was inhibited. The dependence of the SbmA protein for OM19R activity was also studied by a gene-knockout strain. The confocal laser scanning microscopy further revealed that OM19R could rapidly penetrate into E. coli cells without membrane damage. In summary, the hybrid peptide OM19R is a strong cell-selective antibacterial peptide and a promising specific antibacterial agent.

High heat resistant hydroxyl silicone oil with boron and sulfoxide in backbone (HSOBS) was synthesized by copolymerizing of hydroxyl polyborosiloxane oil (HPBSO) with thionyl chloride (SOCl 2 ). The molecular structure of HSOBS was confirmed by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopies (FT-IR) and nuclear magnetic resonance ( 1 H-, 11 B- and 29 Si-NMR) spectroscopies. The thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) results showed that incorporation of sulfoxide group in backbone obviously improved the heat resistant of HSOBS. The temperature at 5% mass loss (T 5 ) and maximum decomposition rate (T max ) of HSOBS-1 were 490 °C and 590 °C, respectively. The thermal degradation activation energy (E a ) was systematically studied by the Flynn-Wall-Ozawa method, and the E a of HSOBS was higher than that of HPBSO.

A ratiometric electrochemiluminescent (ECL) assay is described for the determination of the calcium(II) regulator calcitonin (CT). The method is making use of (a) graphite-like carbon nitride (g-C 3 N 4 ) as the cathodic luminophore, (b) N-(aminobutyl)-N-(ethylisoluminol) (ABEI) as the anodic luminophore, and (c) peroxodisulfate and dissolved oxygen as coreactants. The luminous potential of g-C 3 N 4 and ABEI can be well distinguished because of their different luminescent properties. Energy transfer between g-C 3 N 4 and ABEI is not observed, and the coreactants peroxodisulate and oxygen do not interfere with each other. Au nanoparticles were functionalized with g-C 3 N 4 and placed on the electrode to serve as a matrix for immobilization of primary antibody (Ab 1 ). In the presence of CT, it will bind to the electrode. Then secondary antibody (Ab 2 ) modified with polyaniline (PANI) and ABEI is incubated onto the electrode. With the increase in the concentration of CT, the blue ECL of g-C 3 N 4 is quenched by PANI, while the blue luminescence of ABEI is enhanced. This enables ratiometric detection of calcitonin by ratioing the internsities at 460 and 475 nm. Response is linear in the 0.1~40 pg·mL −1 CT concentration range, and the limit of detection is 23 fg·mL −1 . The method breaks the limitation of common ECL ratiometric strategy, namely, two luminophores often share the common coreactant.
Schematic representation of an immunoassay where polyaniline (PANI) in a BSA-Ab 2 -ABEI-Au@PANI composite quenches the cathodic signal of a graphitic carbon nitride (Au-g-C 3 N 4 ) modified with gold nanoparticles (Au), while N-(aminobutyl)-N-(ethylisolumino) (ABEI) in the BSA-Ab 2 -ABEI-Au@PANI composit produces an anodic signal that enables quantitation of calcitonin.

A magnetic covalent organic framework (Fe 3 O 4 @COF) with core–shell structure was fabricated at room temperature and used as an adsorbent for magnetic solid-phase extraction of polar endocrine-disrupting phenols (4-n-nonylphenol, 4-n-octylphenol, bisphenol A and bisphenol AF). The sorbent was characterized by transmission electron microscopy, FTIR, powder X-ray diffraction and other techniques. The main parameters governing the extraction efficiency were optimized. The phenols were quantified by HPLC with fluorometric detection. The method has attractive features such as low limits of detection (0.08–0.21 ng.mL −1 ), wide linear ranges (0.5–1000 ng.mL −1 ), and good repeatability (intra-day: 0.39%–4.99%; inter-day: 1.57%–5.21%). Satisfactory results were obtained when the developed method was applied to determine the four target pollutants in real world drink samples with spiked recoveries over the range of 81.3~118.0%. This indicates that the method is a powerful tool for the enrichment and determination of endocrine-disrupting phenols in drink samples.
