Porous electron-rich organic frameworks have attracted an increased attention in the adsorption and removal of pollutants due to their abundant electron-rich nitrogen atoms, which can effectively interact with positively charged substance. In this study, a porous electron-rich organic framework (Car-POF) and positively charged amino-functionalized magnetic nanoparticles (Fe 3 O 4 -NH 2 ) were used to construct a magnetic electron-rich Fe 3 O 4 -NH 2 @Car-POF for the enrichment of some phenylurea herbicides from water and milk samples prior to high performance liquid chromatographic detection. The adsorption capacity of Fe 3 O 4 -NH 2 @Car-POF for the phenylureas ranged from 14.93 to 28.83 mg g −1 . The LODs were observed in the range of 0.05–0.20 ng mL −1 and 0.5–1.5 ng mL −1 , and LOQs in the range of 0.17–0.66 ng mL −1 and 1.7–5.0 ng mL −1 for water and milk samples with RSD less than 9.0. The adsorption studies with cationic and anionic dyes revealed that Fe 3 O 4 -NH 2 @Car-POF is favorable for the adsorption of positively charged compounds.

Liposomes were modified due to suboptimal stability. Soybean lecithin liposomes (SLip), hydrogenated soybean lecithin liposomes (HLip), and egg yolk lecithin liposomes (ELip) were modified with different concentrations of soybean isolate protein (SPI) to form SLip-SPI, HLip-SPI, and ELip-SPI. The physical properties, interactions, and stability of liposomes were investigated. The vesicle size of SPI-liposomes was increased, SLip-SPI5.0, HLip-SPI2.5, and ELip-SPI5.0 had the best micromorphology and lowest surface roughness. The binding of both was dominated by hydrogen bonding and hydrophobic interactions, and SLip exhibited the strongest binding affinity. SPI modification enhanced liposome stability, denser liposome membrane structure, and effective retardation of lipid oxidation during storage. Simulation of digestion showed the release rate of proanthocyanidins from SLip-SPI (43.91 %), HLip-SPI (36.96 %), and ELip-SPI (41.44 %) were less than unmodified liposomes, effectively delayed the release of proanthocyanidins. The above findings contributed to design different types of liposome delivery systems while enhancing the application of SPI.

A novel molecular-imprinted electrochemical sensor for 3,4-benzopyrene (3, 4-BaP) in food samples, with high sensitivity and selective detection, is introduced. Firstly, graphene oxide was modified onto a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) by electroreduction deposition to form an RGO/GCE sensing platform, thereby enhancing the sensitivity and stability of the sensor. Then, magnetic molecularly imprinted polymer-zeolite imidazole framework-8 (MMIP-ZIF-8) was synthesized in one step using the crystal growth method and modified onto RGO/GCE, endowing the sensor with good adsorption capacity and selectivity. The performance of the sensor for 3, 4-BaP was studied using differential pulse voltammetry (DPV), and the detection conditions of the constructed sensor were optimized. The results showed that under the optimal conditions, the constructed sensor exhibited a wide linear range (0.5 ~ 1000 nmol L −1 ), a low limit of detection (0.16 nmol L −1 ), and good selectivity and stability for the detection of 3, 4-BaP. It also showed a good recovery (99.74 ~ 102.58%) for the detection of 3, 4-BaP in actual corn meal samples. The MMIP-ZIF-8/RGO/GCE sensor developed has potential application prospects in the precise detection of 3, 4-BaP in food. Graphical

The structural analysis of lignin is highly significant in practical terms. We investigated the presence of fused aromatic multirings (FARs) distinct from conventional phenylpropane units in seven lignin types using synchronous fluorescence spectroscopy (SFS) and quantified their relative proportions. Our findings reveal that FARs are present in all lignin samples, primarily composed of 2–6 rings. The relative distribution of FARs in lignin is ranked as follows: 2 rings > 1 ring > 4 rings > 3 rings > 6 rings > 5 rings. The relative contents of these FARs (1–6 rings) exhibit slight variations across all lignin samples. Notably, FARs with 2 rings are the highest at 35 %−53 %, while those with 5 and 6 rings are the lowest, collectively accounting for less than 1.37 %. Moreover, the relative contents of FARs with 1 and 2–6 rings range approximately 24 %−32 % and 68 %−76 %, respectively. Furthermore, the catalytic hydro-depolymerization of lignin was performed and the experimental results demonstrate that the hydro-liquefied oil from lignin contains aromatic compounds with 1–7 rings, and the relative contents of aromatic compounds with 1 ring and 2–7 rings in the oil are 29 % and 71 %, respectively, which is consistent with that of lignin SFS. These findings are also consistent with the existing literature and experimental results. This study offers an explanation for the low yields observed in current depolymerization processes targeting small molecules within lignin and establishes a theoretical foundation for achieving high yields in the preparation of multiring aromatic hydrocarbons.

Background Because of the advantages of good selectivity , high sensitivity, and fast analysis, high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) has become one of the modern analytical techniques in wide application range, such as biological analysis, environmental detection, pharmaceutical and food inspection, agriculture and other fields. The stationary phase greatly decides the chromatographic separation performance, so the development of novel stationary phase is most important for HPLC. Results Pyridyl conjugated microporous polymers (P-CMP) with one to four layers were modified on the surface of amino silica to obtain a novel core-shell material (SiO2@P-CMP) by the layer-by-layer assembly strategy and Chichibabin reaction . The relationship between the structure of SiO2@P-CMP and chromatographic performance was carefully investigated, and the retention mechanism was revealed. The interactions including π-π stacking, hydrophobic effect and hydrogen bond gradually enhanced with the increase of P-CMP layers on the silica surface. Compared with C18 column, SiO2@P-CMP columns displayed better separation selectivity for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). According to the relative retention values ( α ), the separation performance of SiO2@P-CMP columns ( α = 1.144–1.884) for PAH isomers and other analytes was obviously better than that of C18 column ( α = 0.998–1.487). Furthermore, the SiO2@P-CMP column with four layers was selected to separate different types of analytes (eight PAHs, four bisphenols , four estrogens and nine phthalates), and the peak order of analytes was different from that on the C18 column due to the influence of hydrogen-bonding and π-π interactions. The relative standard deviations (n = 10) of retention time and peak area on SiO2@P-CMP column were between 0.28 % and 1.98 %. Significance and novelty Pyridyl conjugated microporous polymer was introduced as the stationary phase for the first time in HPLC. The proposed column displayed better separation characteristics compared to Zorbax SB-C 18 column. It provided a new idea for the separation of small molecules and the development of chromatographic packing or extraction material.

Background:CPT is a pentacyclic monoterpene alkaloid with a wide spectrum of antitumor activity. Its clinical application is restricted due to poor water solubility, instability, and high toxicity. We developed a new kind of multifunctional micelles to improve its solubility, reduce the side effecs, and obtain enhanced antitumor effects.Methods:We constructed HA-CPT nano-self-assembly prodrug micelles, which combined the advantages of pH-sensitivity, redox-sensitivity, and active targeting ability to CD44 receptor-overexpressing cancer cells. To synthesize dual sensitive HA-CPT conjugates, CPT was conjugated with HA by pH-sensitive histidine (His) and redox-sensitive 3,3′-dithiodipropionic acid (DTPA). In vitro, we studied the cellular uptake and antitumor effect for tumor cell lines. In vivo, we explored the bio-distribution and antitumor effects of the micelles in HCT 116 tumor bearing nude mice.Results:The dual-sensitive and active targeting HA-His-ss-CPT micelles was proved to be highly efficient in CPT delivery by the in vitro cellular uptake study. The HA-His-ss-CPT micelles escaped from endosomes of tumor cells within 4 h after cellular uptake due to the proton sponge effect of the conjugating His and then quickly released CPT in the cytosol by glutathione (GSH). In mice, HA-His-ss-CPT micelles displayed efficient tumor accumulation and conspicuous inhibition of tumor growth.Conclusions:The novel, dual-sensitive, active targeting nano-prodrug micelles exhibited high efficiency in drug delivery and cancer therapy. This “all in one” drug delivery system can be realized in an ingenious structure and avoid intricate synthesis. This construction strategy can illume the design of nanocarriers responding to endogenous stimuli in tumors.

The incorporation of well-designed antibiotic nanocarriers, along with an antibiotic adjuvant effect, in combination with various antibiotics, offers us an opportunity to combat drug-resistant strains. However, precise control over morphology and encapsulated payload release can significantly impact their antibacterial efficacy and synergistic effects when used alongside antibiotics. Here, we focus on developing lipopeptide-based nano-antibiotics, which demonstrate an antibiotic adjuvant effect by inducing pH-induced collapse and negative-charged-surface-induced deformation. This enhances the disruption of the bacterial outer membrane and facilitates drug penetration, effectively boosting the antimicrobial activity against drug-resistant strains. The modulation regulations of the lipopeptide nanocarriers with modular design were governed by us. The nanoantibiotics, made from lipopeptide and ciprofloxacin (Cip), have a drug loading efficiency of over 80%. The combination with Cip resulted in a significantly low fractional inhibitory concentration index (FIC) of 0.375 and a remarkable reduction in the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of Cip against MDR E. coli (clinical isolated strains) by up to 32-fold. The survival rate of MDR E. coli peritonitis treated with our nanoantibiotics was significantly higher, reaching over 87%, compared to only 25% for Cip and no survival for the control group. Meanwhile, the nanoantibiotic showed no obvious toxicity to major organs. This article is protected by copyright. All rights reserved

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were frequently found in sediment and were primarily treated through microbial degradation. Thus, efficient management of PAH pollution requires exploring the molecular degradation mechanisms of PAHs and expanding the pool of available microbial resources. A fungus (identified as Sarocladium terricola strain RCEF778 ) with the remarkable ability to degrade pyrene was screened from sediment near a petrochemical plant, and its growth and pyrene degradation characteristics were comprehensively investigated. The results showed that the fungus exhibited great effectiveness in pyrene degradation, with a degradation ratio of 88.97% at 21 days at the conditions: 35 °C, pH 7, 10 mg L −1 initially pyrene concentration, 3% supplementary salt, and glucose supplementation. The generation and concentration variation of the intermediate products were identified, and the results revealed that the fungus degraded pyrene through two pathways: by salicylic acid and by phthalic acid. Three sediments (M1, M2, M3), each exhibiting different levels of PAH pollution, were employed to examine the effectiveness of fungal degradation of PAHs in practical sediment samples. These data showed that with the fungus, the degradation ratios ranged from 13.64% to 23.50% for 2–3 rings PAHs, 40.93%–49.41% for 4 rings PAHs, and 39.59%–48.07% for 5–6 rings PAHs, which were significantly higher than those for the sediment without the fungus and confirmed the excellent performance of the fungal. Moreover, the Gompertz model was employed to analyze the degradation kinetics of 4-rings and 5–6 rings PAHs in these sediments, and the results demonstrated that the addition of the fungus could significantly increase the maximum degradation ratio, degradation start-up rate and maximum degradation rate of 4-rings and 5–6 rings PAHs and shorten the time required to reach the maximum degradation rate. This study not only supplied fungal materials but also established crucial theoretical foundations for the development of bioremediation technologies aimed at high molecular weight PAH-contaminated sediments.

Fucoxanthin (FX) has various excellent biological properties but suffers from poor bioavailability. In this work, we build a bionic cell wall model using TEMPO (2,2,6,6-tetramethyl-1-piperidinyloxy)-oxidized cellulose. The bionic cell wall enhances the environmental stability of the liposomes and serves as a pH-responsive mechanism. The coating processes protect the structure of liposomes and fucoxanthin under the acidic conditions of the stomach. The bionic cell wall disperses and releases the fucoxanthin in simulated intestinal fluid (SIF). Overall, the protective and release capabilities highlight the potential of cellulose in a bionic cell wall model and provide diversity for the structural design of carriers for delivering functional bioactive components.

In this study, a durable hydrophobicity hydrazone covalent organic framework (BTCH-PTA-COF) has been developed as fiber coating, which was applied to solid-phase microextraction (SPME) of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). The hydrophobic and π-π packing interactions between BTCH-PTA-COF and PAHs were confirmed by contact angle experiments and Van der Waals surface electrostatic potential analysis. Further, large specific surface area, good chemical and thermal stability have positive promoting effect on extraction. The method of wide linearity (0.25–300 µ g·L −1 ), low detection limits (0.03–0.05 µ g·L −1 ) and high enrichment factors (767–1411) for the detection of PAHs is explored, coupling BTCH-PTA-COF based SPME with gas chromatography with hydrogen flame detector (GC-FID). The relative standard deviations (RSDs) for inter-day and intra-day extractions of PAHs are ranging from 4.1 % to 9.6 % and 2.9 % to 6.4 %, respectively. The method successfully detected and quantified trace PAHs in tea beverages and river water samples with recoveries from 88.5 % to 104.8 %. The BTCH-PTA-COF coated fiber is ultra-stable in recycled extraction and reused at least 120 times, which could surpass published and commercial SPME fiber.

The bitterness of soyasaponins (Ssa) is one of the main causes of undesirable flavors in soy products. In this study, a Ssa-soybean protein isolate (SPI) binary system was constructed to simulate the adsorption behavior of soybean products at the oral-salivary interface and the mechanism of bitter taste development was investigated. The concentration of Ssa with was determined to be the minimum bitterness value approximately 0.5 mg/mL by sensory evaluation and electronic tongue determination. The nonspecific interactions were confirmed by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) and endogenous fluorescence measurements. Ssa formed aggregates with SPI that desorbed from the interface into the bulk phase, resulting in a subsequent increase in particle size and turbidity. This study demonstrated the ability of SPI with Ssa at specific concentrations to attenuate the bitter flavor of Ssa, thus providing important implications for increasing the acceptability of soy products.

Using low catalyst loadings while maintaining precise polymer property control is a critical challenge in the O-ATRP field. Herein, we report a novel O-ATRP system utilizing 1-bromopyrene (Py-Br) as a photoredox catalyst, enabling controlled polymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) at an ultra-low loading of 10 ppm. When combined with ethyl α -bromophenylacetate (EBPA) as an initiator, this system produces polymers with a molecular weight distribution of 1.48 and an initiation efficiency of 66.7%. Mechanistic studies, including UV–Vis spectroscopy, fluorescence spectroscopy, cyclic voltammetry, and time-resolved fluorescence measurements, elucidate the photophysical and photochemical properties of Py-Br in O-ATRP. Kinetic analyses reveal first-order polymerization kinetics, while the linear increase of molecular weight with monomer conversion and low dispersity values indicate good control over the polymerization. The living nature of the system is further confirmed through successful chain extension experiments. This Py-Br-catalyzed O-ATRP system explores the feasibility of conducting polymerization at lower catalyst concentrations, offering insights into approaches for reducing catalyst usage in polymer synthesis.
