In this study, La 0.63 Sr 0.2 Nd 0.17 MnO 3 was synthesized by the sol-gel method, and its structural, morphological, magnetic, and magnetocaloric effects were investigated. The structural properties were analyzed by x-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to characterize the morphology. An integrated magnetic measurement system was used to determine the magnetic properties. La 0.63 Sr 0.2 Nd 0.17 MnO 3 crystallized in a hexagonal crystal system with space group R -3 c . This was also confirmed by Rietveld refinement of the x-ray data from La 0.63 Sr 0.2 Nd 0.17 MnO 3 . With the doping of Nd 3+ , the cell volume decreases, which can be explained by the angles and bond lengths of the bonds between the Mn and O ions and the distortion of the lattice. Near the Curie temperature, La 0.63 Sr 0.2 Nd 0.17 MnO 3 exhibits significant magnetocaloric effects. The magnetic study of La 0.63 Sr 0.2 Nd 0.17 MnO 3 suggests that the transition from the paramagnetic to ferromagnetic phase can occur near the Curie temperature. The maximum magnetic entropy change and relative cooling power (RCP) of La 0.63 Sr 0.2 Nd 0.17 MnO 3 (298 K, 3 T) are 2.70 J/(kg K) and 135 (J/kg), respectively. The effect of f -orbitals on the magnetic properties of La 0.8 Sr 0.2 MnO 3 was investigated by first-principles calculations in density functional theory. Thus, it can be concluded that the magnetocaloric effects of the material after doping with f -orbital ions (Nd 3+ ) is enhanced compared to La 0.8 Sr 0.2 MnO 3 .

Tetramethyl bisphenol F (TMBPF), regarded as a promising alternative to bisphenol A (BPA) across multiple industries, is now incorporated into polymer coatings for metal cans used in food and beverage packaging. Recent research has highlighted possible health risks associated with TMBPF, yet its impact on ovarian function and the mechanisms involved remain inadequately understood. This study provides a thorough evaluation of TMBPF's effects on granulosa cells (GCs) and uncovers its transgenerational influence on female reproductive health. We exposed pregnant CD1 mice to TMBPF at doses of 50 μg/kg/day or 200 μg/kg/day from gestational day 7 (GD7) through postnatal day 21 (PND21). Our findings indicated that maternal exposure to TMBPF adversely affects the reproductive system of the F1 generation by elevating the levels of E2, FSH, and LH, reducing the ovarian index, and increasing the number of collagen fibers in the ovarian stroma. The human granulosa-like tumor cell line KGN was employed as an experimental model to assess the toxic effects of TMBPF on GCs. The findings revealed that sublethal concentrations of TMBPF induced mitochondrial dysfunction, cellular senescence, and disrupted redox homeostasis in GCs in vitro. Our transcriptome sequencing analyses indicated that ESRRB upregulation might play a critical role in TMBPF-induced cellular senescence. Additionally, TMBPF exposure induced KGN cells senescence and senescent cell accumulation in F1 mouse ovaries by promoting ESRRB/p21 signalling. Collectively, our results indicate that TMBPF disrupts hormone levels in the ovaries, accelerates GCs senescence and promotes ovarian fibrosis, adversely affecting ovarian function in offspring. This study provides new insights into the potential effects of TMBPF exposure on the reproductive system and the related mechanisms.

Poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) is a prominent fluoropolymer whose functional properties are governed by its polymorphic crystal structure. Conventional strategies for controlling PVDF crystallization face challenges in achieving precise, multi-scale control over molecular chain conformation, segment orientation, crystal phase, and crystallinity, hindering the simultaneous optimization of high polar β- phase content, low dielectric loss, and mechanical toughness. Here we introduce a crystallization control strategy utilizing trace fluorinated organic molecules (FOM) as additives. This approach exploits strong C-F···H-C intermolecular interactions between FOM and PVDF chains to both induce the formation of all- trans (TTTT) chain conformation and directionally guide crystalline architecture through fluorine-induced dipole alignment. At an ultralow FOM loading of 0.5 wt%, this strategy significantly enhances crystallinity and boosts the β- phase fraction from 27 % to 77 %. The resulting molecular-scale dipole orientation enables a maximum polarization ( P max ) exceeding 9.1 μC·cm −2 . Crucially, the FOM suppresses excessive crystal growth while preserving polymer chain mobility and mechanical flexibility. This molecular-level design strategy facilitates unprecedented multi-level control over chain conformation, crystal alignment, and additive dispersion, thereby overcoming the traditional trade-offs among β -phase content, dielectric loss, and toughness while offering a versatile approach to polymer crystallization control.

In the treatment of cardiovascular diseases, vascular scaffold materials play an extremely important role. The appropriate substrate chemistries and 15 dynes/cm 2 physiological fluid shear stress (FSS) are both required to ensure normal physiological activity of human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs). The present study reported the collective influence of substrate chemistries and FSS on HUVECs in the sense of its biological functions. The CH 3 , NH 2 , and OH functional groups were adopted to offer a variety of substrate chemistries on glass slides by the technology of self-assembled monolayers, whereas FSS was generated by a parallel-plate fluid flow system. Substrate chemistries on its own by no means had noticeable effects on eNOS, ATP, NO, and PGI 2 expressions, while FSS stimuli enhanced their production. While substrate chemistries, as well as FSS, were both exerted, the releases of ATP, NO, and PGI 2 were dependent on substrate chemistries. Study of F-actin organization and focal adhesions (FAs) formation of HUVECs before FSS exposure proves that F-action organization and FAs formation followed similar chemistry-dependence. Hereby proposed a feasible mechanism, that is, the F-actin organization and FAs formation of HUVECs are controlled by substrate chemistries, further advancing the modulation of FSS-triggered responses of HUVECs.

Sea cucumber peptides have been shown to possess a number of functions, including antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, anti-tumor, and anti-fatigue effects, as well as immune regulation and promotion of collagen synthesis. Among these, high F-value oligopeptides are a promising natural active ingredient demonstrating excellent anti-fatigue effects. This study utilized fresh sea cucumbers as the primary raw material, employing membrane separation technology to investigate the simultaneous separation of sea cucumber polysaccharides and peptides. The process for removing aromatic amino acids during the preparation of high F-value oligopeptides from sea cucumbers was optimized, and the mechanism underlying their anti-fatigue effects was explored. A two-step enzymatic hydrolysis method using neutral protease and composite flavor protease was employed, followed by membrane separation using a 10,000 Da molecular weight ultrafiltration membrane, yielding a sea cucumber peptide yield of 45.00 ± 0.12% and a sea cucumber polysaccharide yield of 51.28 ± 0.63%. Following the removal of aromatic amino acids by means of activated carbon adsorption, the F-value of the high-F-value oligopeptides attained 23.82, with a yield of 24.56%. The experimental findings demonstrated that high-F-value oligopeptides exhibited a substantial increase in the swimming duration of mice and a notable enhancement in their grip strength. These observations signified their substantial anti-fatigue potential. Furthermore, studies have indicated that sea cucumber high-F-value oligopeptides reduce metabolites produced by exercise, enhance muscle protection, increase the activity of antioxidant enzymes in the body, and alleviate fatigue, thereby achieving an anti-fatigue effect.

This work developed a fluorescence polarization (FP) assay for simultaneous monitoring BPA, BPF, BADGE, and BFDGE in canned tuna. The assay was based on the competitive binding between bisphenol analogues (BPs) and dexamethasone fluorescein (Dex-fl) for mouse peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor α ligand binding domain (mPPARα-LBD*). The soluble form of mPPARα-LBD* was expressed in Escherichia coli strain Rosetta (DE3), as a recognition element on detection of BPs. Under optimized conditions, four bisphenol analytes were detected at concentrations corresponding to the specific migration limits (SMLs) as required by the European Union. The FP assay showed IC50 values of 2.80, 6.51, 1.72, and 4.28 mg L−1 with a limit of detection of 0.35, 0.08, 0.10, and 0.49 mg L−1 for BPA, BPF, BADGE, and BFDGE, respectively. The analysis of spiked canned tuna samples showed the acceptable recoveries ranged from 87.9% to 77.3%, with variation coefficients ranging from 9.0% to 15.8%. With the high sensitivity and wide-range affinities to BPs, the developed assay based on mPPARα-LBD* exhibited the potential to be a screening assay for fast detection of BPs in canned tuna.

Core-shell F-doped carbon coated SiO composites with interspaces and some small voids (SiO@F-doped C) are successfully fabricated using bulk SiO as starting material. With the assistance of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), both etching and carbon coating of SiO are firstly performed in a single step, which largely lowers the production cost of materials. The SiO@F-doped C composite obtained by annealing the mixture of SiO and PTFE with a mass ratio of 5:3 at 650 °C shows the highest stable discharge capacity with excellent cycling stability. It delivers a stable discharge capacity of about 975 mAh g −1 at a current density of 100 mA g −1 . Even after the current density increases to 1600 mA g −1 , a stable discharge capacity of about 553 mAh g −1 can be achieved. At a current density of 400 mA g −1 , the composite maintains a discharge capacity of 752 mAh g −1 after 350 cycles, the retention of which is 99.2% versus that in the second cycle. Compared with the annealed SiO, in addition to higher conductivity, the ions diffusion rate of the SiO@F-doped C composite increases 2.94 times while the volume expansion falls by more than half, which should be responsible for its significantly enhanced electrochemical performance.

Next-generation wide color gamut displays require the development of efficient and toxic-free light-emitting materials meeting the crucial Rec. 2020 standard. With the rapid progress of green and red perovskite light-emitting diodes (PeLEDs), blue PeLEDs remain a central challenge because of the undesirable color coordinates and poor spectra stability. Here, we report Cs 3 CeBr x I 6− x ( x = 0 to 6) with the cryolite-like structure and stable and tunable color coordinates from (0.17, 0.02) to (0.15, 0.04). Further encouraged by the short exciton lifetime (26.1 ns) and high photoluminescence quantum yield (~76%), we construct Cs 3 CeBr x I 6− x -based rare-earth LEDs via thermal evaporation. A seed layer strategy is conducted to improve the device’s performance. The optimal Cs 3 CeI 6 device achieves a maximum external quantum efficiency of 3.5% and a luminance of 470 cd m −2 with stable deep-blue color coordinates of (0.15, 0.04). Our work opens another avenue to achieving efficient and spectrally stable deep-blue LEDs.

Exorbitant cost and limited availability of platinum-based electrocatalysts for the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in metal–air batteries and alkaline fuel cells pose significant obstacles to the large-scale commercialization of these clean-energy technologies. Herein, we employed a cost-effective and sustainable bacterial cellulose biomass as the precursor to prepare a nitrogen and fluorine codoped metal-free ORR electrocatalyst (BCC-NF-900) by direct pyrolysis regulation. The BCC-NF-900 inherited the three-dimensional framework of bacterial cellulose, exhibiting a robust porous structure with a Brunauer–Emmett–Teller surface area of 196.9 m 2 ·g −1 . The pyridinic N (0.6 at%) and semi-ionic F (0.34 at%) species formed in the inert sp2 carbon skeletons synergistically regulated the electron spin and charge density of the adjacent C atoms. Such rational combination of a rapid transport pathway and effective active site led to high ORR activity (onset potential 0.89 V vs. RHE), methanol resistance, and electrochemical stability (merely 6.9% current loss) in alkaline electrolyte. Importantly, compared to the mere F-doped BCC-F-900 (onset potential 0.82 V vs. RHE) and N-doped BCC-N-900 (onset potential 0.77 V vs. RHE) catalysts, the BCC-NF-900 catalyst exhibited a markedly enhanced ORR performance, as evidenced by the measured onset potential. This study provides an available reference for the design of efficient metal-free catalysts for ORR, presenting a promising alternative to Pt/C catalysts in metal–air batteries and alkaline fuel cells.

Aiming for promoting the capacity and cycling stability of O3-type NaNi 1/3 Fe 1/3 Mn 1/3 O 2 (NFM), the cathode material of sodium ion batteries (SIBs) with the most potential for industrialization, Na(Ni 1/3 Fe 1/3 Mn 1/3 ) 0.99 Mo 0.01 O 1.99 F 0.01 (NFM-MoF), Na(Ni 1/3 Fe 1/3 Mn 1/3 ) 0.99 Mo 0.01 O 2 (NFM-Mo) and NaNi 1/3 Fe 1/3 Mn 1/3 O 1.99 F 0.01 (NFM-F) were successfully synthesized by solid phase method. The electrochemical performance of the doped samples was compared with that of the pristine NFM. The mechanism of the single- or dual-doping was explored by XRD Rietveld refinement and XPS. The NFM-MoF exhibits the highest initial specific discharge capacity of 137mAhg −1 at 1 C with a retention of 91.97% after 100 cycles and the smallest polarization (0.32 V), which could be contributed to the highest Ni 2+ content and highest D Na + (7.335 ×10 −13 cm 2 ·s −1 ) caused by the synergistic effect of Mo and F dual-doping. The highest Fe 3+ content in the NFM-Mo leads to the higher initial discharge capacity of 1 36 mAhg −1 at 1 C with a relative lower retention of 83.38%, which is due to the structure instability resulting from Fe migration and the lowest Mn content, than that of the NFM-F (85.31%). It illustrates that the Mn 4+ plays a crucial role in stabilizing the structure during Na + migrating. The superiority of the discharge capacity of the NFM-Mo become narrow with rates rise, due to its lower D Na + (4.229 ×10 −13 cm 2 ·s −1 ) than that of the NFM-F D Na + (5.681 ×10 −13 cm 2 ·s −1 ). It verifies that it is a diffusion control process at high rates. Mo and F dual-doping in NFM was proved to amplify the benefit of Ni 2+ increasing, meanwhile restrain undesirable Fe increasing due to the synergistic effect.

The organic pollutants discharged from industrial wastewater have caused serious harm to human health. The efficient photocatalytic degradation of organic pollutants under sunlight shows promise for industrial applications and energy utilization. In this study, a modified TiO2photocatalyst doped with bismuth (Bi) and fluorine (F) and composited with SnO2and SiO2was prepared, and its performance for the degradation of Rhodamine B (RhB) under simulated sunlight was evaluated. Through the optimization of the doping levels of Bi and F, as well as the ratio of SnO2and SiO2to TiO2, the optimal catalyst reached degradation efficiency of 100% for RhB within 20 min under simulated sunlight, with a first-order reaction rate constant of 0.291 min−1. This value was 15, 41, 6.5, and 3.3 times higher than those of TiO2/SnO2, Bi/TiO2, Bi-TiO2/SnO2, and F/Bi-TiO2/SnO2, respectively. The active species detection showed that h+was the most crucial active species in the process. The role of Bi and F addition and SnO2-SiO2compositing was investigated by characterization. Bi formed a chemical bonding with TiO2by doping into TiO2. The absorbance intensity in the UV and visible light regions was improved by SnO2and F modification. Composite with SiO2led to a larger surface area that allowed for more RhB adsorption sites. These beneficial modifications greatly enhanced the photocatalytic activity of the catalyst.

A novel probe incorporating quaternized 4-pyridinium group into a BODIPY molecule was synthesized and studied for the selective detection of fluoride ions (F − ) in aqueous solution. The design was based on a fluoride-specific desilylation reaction and the “Turn-On” fluorescent response of probe 1 to F − was ascribed to the inhibition of photoinduced electron transfer (PET) process. The probe displayed many desired properties such as high specificity, appreciable solubility, desirable response time and low toxicity to mammalian cells. There was a good linearity between the fluorescence intensity and the concentrations of F − in the range of 0.1–1 mM with a detection limit of 0.02 mM. The sensing mechanism was confirmed by the NMR, electrospray ionization mass spectrum, optical spectroscopy and the mechanism of “Turn-On” fluorescent response was also determinated by a density functional theory (DFT) calculation using Gaussian 03 program. Moreover, the probe was successfully applied for the fluorescence imaging of F − in human epithelial lung cancer (A549) cells and alveolar type II (ATII) cells under physiological conditions.
