Fluorinated liquid crystal monomers (FLCMs) are widely used in liquid crystal display (LCD) panels. However, as emerging contaminants, FLCMs have been detected in various environments and proven to be toxic to humans. This study aimed to investigate the molecular mechanisms underlying the hepatotoxicity of a typical FLCM, 1-ethoxy-2,3-difluoro-4-(trans-4-propylcyclohexyl) benzene (EDPrB), in HepG2 cells. EDPrB exposure (25 mg/L) induced oxidative stress, evidenced by reduced CAT activity (1.87-fold) and increased MDA content (2.12-fold) ( p < 0.05). 25 mg/L EDPrB disrupted the metabolism, significantly elevating the levels of TC (1.65-fold, p < 0.001), TG (1.47-fold, p < 0.01), and GLU (1.44-fold, p < 0.05), respectively. Comprehensive analysis of transcriptomics and metabolomics revealed that EDPrB affected lipid and glucose metabolisms, antioxidant defense-related pathways, and PI3K/AKT/mTOR signaling pathways. Additionally, the altered expression of metabolism-related genes confirmed the promotion of fatty acid synthesis and glycolysis. The altered expression of PI3K, AKT, and mTOR proteins, coupled with their strong binding affinity to EDPrB, collectively revealed the dysregulation of PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathways. Protein-protein interaction (PPI) analysis further verified the interaction between lipid and glucose metabolism disorders, oxidative stress, and PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathways dysfunction, contributing to EDPrB-induced hepatotoxicity. Our findings provide valuable insights into the potential health risks of FLCMs.

A new molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) have been prepared for the high selective extraction of lamotrigine (LTG), a widely used antiepileptic drug, in human serum. The MIPs were polymerized by bulk polymerization using our synthesized compound, 2-(4-vinylphenyl) quinolin-4-carboxylic acid, as functional monomer, which achieved better adsorption specificity than universal MIPs. Then, the molecularly imprinted solid phase extraction (MISPE) based on this material was coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) for the detection of LTG in human serum. The results of method validation showed that the developed method presented a good precision and accuracy, and the linearity was in the range of 1.50–40.00 mg/mL with the limit of quantitation (LOQ) at 0.20 mg/mL. The recovery ranged from 80.8% to 83.8% with RSD ranges from 5.5% to 11.1%. The validated method was successfully used to determine the concentration of LTG in human simulate serum samples.

4-Methylbenzylidene camphor (4-MBC), a typical organic UV filter (OUVF) in personal care products, is considered to be a potential endocrine disruptor due to its estrogenic activity and bioaccumulation. Although 4-MBC residues have been extensively identified in aquatic waters, little is known about their occurrence, levels, and potential risk in coastal waters. This study developed a reliable sampling approach, based on diffusive gradients in thin films (DGT) with XAD-2 as the binding agent, for monitoring 4-MBC in coastal waters. The diffusion coefficients of 4-MBC in freshwater and artificial seawater were 3.65 × 10 −6 cm 2 /s and 3.83 × 10 −6 cm 2 /s, respectively. XAD-2 binding gel showed rapid adsorption to 4-MBC. The accumulated masses of 4-MBC in XAD-2 DGT increased linearly with deployed time for 7 days in freshwater and seawater, which agreed well with theoretical predictions. The sampling performance was independent of ionic strength (0.0001–0.5 M), pH (4.0–8.5), and dissolved organic matter (0–20 mg/L). Field deployment in the river estuary and bathing beach showed that DGT-measured 4-MBC concentrations were consistent in comparison with grab sampling. Environmental risk assessment showed that 4-MBC may pose a medium risk to aquatic organisms based on computed risk quotient (RQ) values. Sewage discharge is the main source of 4-MBC risk, while the residue in recreation beaches contributes more significantly in summer. The established DGT sampling is suitable for seasonal monitoring, source identification, and risk assessment of 4-MBC in coastal waters. Graphical abstract

A moisture-sensitive metal-organic framework Co II (pybz) 2 ·2DMF was synthesized and applied as the adsorbent of dispersive solid-phase extraction. The structure changed after water treatment due to the fact that two chelate carboxylate groups on the skeleton were transformed to monodentate because of the coordination of water molecules. The material showed good adsorption for fluorene, phenanthrene, fluoranthene, and pyrene in water because of the π–π conjugation and π-complexation effects. Coupled with high-performance liquid chromatography, a dispersive solid-phase extraction method of determining the content of fluorene, phenanthrene, fluoranthene, and pyrene in apple samples was established after optimizing the extraction conditions. Methanol containing 4% acetic acid was used as the effective eluent. The linearities were 0.5–1000 μg/kg for fluorene, phenanthrene and 5–1000 μg/kg for fluoranthene, pyrene. The limits of detection were 0.06–0.6 μg/kg, and the recoveries were 94.4–116.4%. The method has a high sensitivity for the determination of four polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in apple samples.

The isopiestic equilibria for the systems {Li 2 B 4 O 5 (OH) 4 + H 2 O}, {LiB 5 O 6 (OH) 4 + H 2 O} and {Li 2 B 4 O 5 (OH) 4 + LiB 5 O 6 (OH) 4 + H 2 O} at 288.15 K and ambient pressure were measured by the isopiestic method using a modified gravimetric isopiestic apparatus. The water activities and osmotic coefficients were determined based on the sodium chloride standard reference solution. On the basis of Pitzer model, an extended Pitzer model was developed to describe the thermodynamic properties of the aqueous systems containing different forms of lithium borates, then the Pitzer single salt parameters β (0) , β (1) , β (2) and C ϕ for the binary systems {Li 2 B 4 O 5 (OH) 4 + H 2 O} and {(LiB 5 O 6 (OH) 4 + H 2 O} and mixing ion-interaction parameters θ B 4 O 5 OH 4 , B 5 O 6 OH 4 and ψ Li , B 4 O 5 OH 4 , B 5 O 6 OH 4 for the ternary system {Li 2 B 4 O 5 (OH) 4 + LiB 5 O 6 (OH) 4 + H 2 O} were fitted with the experimental osmotic coefficients using the Fortran 97 program. Meanwhile, the water activities were calculated by the Pitzer parameters, and the good agreement between the calculated water activities and experimental results of this ternary system indicated that the Pitzer parameters obtained in this work were reliable.

A colorimetric/fluorometric dual-signal assay is described for the determination of dopamine (DA). A nanoprobe was obtained by linking a 4-(4-dialkylaminostyryl)pyridinium derived fluorophore to citrate-capped gold nanoparticles (AuNPs). The fluorescence of the fluorophore is quenched by the AuNPs via fluorescence resonance energy transfe. In the presence of DA, the catechol group of DA can absorb on the surface of AuNPs to induce aggregation, which is accompanied by a color change from red to blue. The yellow fluorescence of the fluorophore with excitation/emission maximum at 365/570 nm is recovered. The dual-signal detection allows the quantitative analysis of DA within 300 μM by the colorimetric method and 80 μM by the fluorometric method. The detection limits for the colorimetric/fluorometric methods are 1.85 μM and 0.29 μM, respectively. Quantitative determination of DA in spiked urine samples was successfully demonstrated, with recoveries ranging from 98.2 to 106.0%.

In this work, we reported on the synthesis and characterization of (Z)-4-oxo-4-ureido-but-2-enoic acid and p-toluenesulfonic acid 3-nitrophenyl ester and their detailed crystal structure information were studied. The crystallization of (Z)-4-oxo-4-ureido-but-2-enoic acid results in reduced π -conjugation in the molecule and weaker intra-molecular hydrogen bonding. The main driving force for the molecular self-assembly of (Z)-4-oxo-4-ureido-but-2-enoic acid was found to be the strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds . Compared with (Z)-4-oxo-4-ureido-but-2-enoic acid with six type of strong H-bonds, p-toluenesulfonic acid 3-nitrophenyl ester possesses much lower melting point (110–111°C), average packing energy (−3.7 kcal mol −1 ), molecular deformation energy (−0.6 kcal mol −1 ) and highest torsional angle change (9.3°). This can be ascribed to the week intermolecular interaction between center molecule and adjacent molecules.

Mg-Al-layered double hydroxide (Mg-Al-LDH) modified nanoscale zero-valent iron (NZVI) (Fe@MgAl-LDH) was firstly synthesized and characterized by several techniques. The results showed that the layered double hydroxides were coated on the surface of nanoscale zero-valent iron particles. This new material exhibited good adsorption for bisphenol A, 4-octylphenol and 4-nonylphenol from water samples. Based on these, a sensitive method was developed for the extraction and preconcentration of bisphenol A, 4-octylphenol and 4-nonylphenol using magnetic Fe@MgAl-LDH nanoparticles as the solid phase extraction adsorbents prior to high performance liquid chromatography coupled with variable wavelength detection. Under the optimal conditions, linear responses were achieved in the range of 0.5–200 μg L −1 with the correlation coefficients (r) above 0.999. The detection limits of three analytes were in the range of 0.24–0.34 μg L −1 , and precisions were all below 2.5% (n = 6). The proposed method was evaluated with real water samples and the excellent spiked recoveries in the range of 96.0–99.3% were achieved.

A novel catalyst which integrates heterogeneous and homogenous Fenton reactions is designed and fabricated by encapsulating 2,5-dihydroxy-1,4-benzoquinone (2,5-DBQ) in ECDP-Fe 3 O 4 , a composite of Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles immobilized on a β-cyclodextrin polymer (ECDP) with ethylene diamine tetraacetic acid (EDTA) as cross-linking agent. The 2,5-DBQ@ECDP-Fe 3 O 4 has superior catalytic performance for 4-nitrophenol and 2,4-dichlorophenol degradation compared with control systems. Mechanism study revealed that although the initial active site is Fe 3 O 4 loaded on ECDP, the actually catalyst is the iron ions released from Fe 3 O 4 but confined within the composite. EDTA in β-cyclodextrin polymer can improve both the solubility and adsorption capacity to H 2 O 2 of Fe 3 O 4 . The quinone molecules 2,5-DBQ in the β-cyclodextrin cavity can accelerate Fe 3+ /Fe 2+ cycle adjacent to the cavity, thus in favor of the decomposition of H 2 O 2 into OH as main reactive oxidizing species. The current catalyst integrates the advantages of homogeneous and heterogeneous advanced oxidation processes and is promising in practical applications.

Cocrystals of probenecid-4,4′-azopyridine (2:1) form I were first prepared by cooling cocrystallization method and characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), optical microscopy , powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The solubility of cocrystal form I in six pure solvents and two binary solvents with temperature from 273.15 K to 313.15 K was measured by using a gravimetric method . Solubility of cocrystals increases when the temperature rises in pure and both of binary solvents. In pure solvents , the solubility of cocrystals form I from largest to smallest follows the order acetone > ethyl acetate > ethanol ≈ 1-propanol ≈ 2-propanol > acetonitrile . The modified Apelblat equation, λh equation and NRTL model were used to the correlate solubility data in pure solvents and those three models plus CNIBS/Redlich-Kister model and modified Jouyban-Acree model were chosen to correlate the solubility data in two binary solvents. All models provide great correlation and accuracy. Besides, apparent dissolution enthalpy, entropy and Gibbs energy were obtained through NRTL model and the result shows that in six pure and two binary solvents, the process of dissolution of form I of probenecid-4,4′-azopyridine cocrystals is spontaneous, endothermic and driven by entropy.

This study aimed to investigate the effects of nitrate on the ultraviolet (UV) treatment of simulated washing wastes containing Trion X-100 (TX-100) surfactant and 4,4′-dibromodiphenyl ether (BDE-15) pollutant. The presence of nitrate accelerated the photodegradation of BDE-15 and TX-100, because they reacted with reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced from conversion between nitrate and nitrite. Due to nitrite having a stronger radical quenching property than nitrate, nitrite hindered TX-100 decay while the photodegradation rate of BDE-15 was similar to that in the presence of nitrate. This indicated that nitrate/nitrite affected BDE-15 photodegradation by photosensitization and TX-100 loss by ROS attack. An increased TX-100 concentration increased the loss of total inorganic nitrogen possibly owing to an increase in organic nitrogen formation through TX-100 nitration reactions. At pH < 7 HOONO rapidly isomerized to NO 3 − , and at pH = 7–9 it homolyzed to ONOO − , which increased OH production to decay the BDE-15 and TX-100 and also increased NO 2 − formation. BDE-15 mainly underwent debromination, and some rearrangement, ring formation, nitration and hydroxylation products were detected, indicating that the produced OH and NO 2 attacked the BDE-15 and products. Furthermore, broken-chain, carboxylation , hydroxylation and nitro products were detected by Liquid chromatography high resolution mass spectrometry (LC-HRMS). Escherichia coli was used to assess the toxicity of washing waste containing nitrate: the presence of nitrate will increase the wastes' toxicity during UV treatment. Therefore, the presence of nitrate is deleterious to the UV treatment of washing wastes, and it is important to remove nitrates and nitrites from washing waste before UV irradiation.

2,4,6-trinitrophenol (TNP) and 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNH) are harmful to the environment and human beings. Trace detection of TNP and DNH is worth of developing facile methods. In this work, cellulose powder and filter paper based fluorescence sensor are synthesized. Firstly, NH 2 CH 2 CH 2 – was introduced into cellulose through etherification reaction, and at the same time, a small molecule BODIPY with –CHO was synthesized. Then BODIPY was incorporated into cellulose by Schiff base reaction to obtain fluorescent macromolecular probes. These fluorescent cellulose sensors can efficiently identify TNP and DNH, with the lowest detection limits of 2.8 × 10 −7 M and 1.6 × 10 −7 M, respectively. Fluorescent filter paper is obtained via the same route. They also exhibit TNP and DNH identification ability. The method developed in filter paper not only expands the application range of cellulose, but also can efficiently identify the pollutants TNP and DNH, which is of great significance in theory and practical applications.
