Super-hydrophobic F-TiO 2 @PP membranes were developed from polypropylene (PP) non-woven fabric by in situ cross-linking polymerization of trifluorofluorooctyl methacrylate (FOMA) and sol–gel-derived titanium dioxide with vinyltriethoxysilane (VTES). Due to the formation of super-hydrophobic “coral”-like synapses on the filamentous surfaces of PP non-woven fabric, F-TiO 2 @PP membranes showed extremely high water contact angles up to 157° and capability of rapidly absorbing oil drops. The F-TiO 2 @PP membranes were also able to expel water from water-in-oil emulsions with robustly high oil permeate fluxes (up to 11,000 L m −2 h −1 under gravity), water removing efficiency (up to 99.7%), re-usability and long-term stability even at the presence of surfactant and salts. Such superior performance could lead to potential applications in rapid collection and efficient purification of recovered oily organic components from waste liquids or accidental oil discharges in marine or continental situations.

V cation was introduced at Nb-site in CoTiNb 2 O 8 for the purpose of tuning the defects concentration. XRD analysis indicated that no secondary phase developed over the whole composition range. The sintering temperature decreased to 1150 °C in current work, compared with pure CoTiNb 2 O 8 ceramic (∼1250 °C). V-introduction inhibited grain growth and benefited grain homogenization. The decreased molecular dielectric polarizability and blue shift of Raman A 1g mode both made lower ε r from 59.2 to 41.8. Based on the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), V doping decreased the oxygen vacancy concentration and tuned the Co valence state. The defects compensation by oxygen and Co vacancies significantly improved Q × f up to 38,012 GHz, accompanied with a 50% rise. The slight increase in τ f was attributed to the Nb-O bond energy reduction. The CoTi(Nb 0.97 V 0.03 ) 2 O 8 had a high ε r of 54.6 with good Q × f of about 38,012 GHz and τ f =96.47 ppm/°C. Enhanced Q × f and low sintering temperature were achieved simultaneously.

Large–size spherical sorbents with particle size of 10–50 μm are widely applied in separation fields, however it is still a great challenge to synthesize such large–size spherical covalent organic framework (COF). In this work, a type of large–size porous 3D COF was size–controablly synthesized via a two–step strategy, in which a large–size porous 3D spherical polymer was prepared first through a Pickering emulsion polymerization using nano silica as the stabilizer, and subsequently it was converted into porous spherical 3D COF by a solvothermal method . The as–prepared porous spherical COF (COF–320 as a model) showed size–controllable uniform spherical morphology within 15–45 μm, large specific surface area, fine crystalline structure, and good chemical stability. When used as the sorbent for dispersive solid–phase extraction (d–SPE) of bisphenol F (BPF), the porous spherical COF–320 (15 μm) displayed high adsorption capacity ( Q max = 335.6 mg/g), high enrichment factor (80 folds), and good reusability (at least five cycles). By coupling the d–SPE method to HPLC, a new analytical approach was developed and successfully applied to the determination of trace BPF in two water samples, an orange juice and a standard sample with recoveries of 96.0–102.2 % (RSD = 1.1–1.5 %), 95.7–97.4 % (RSD = 1.4–4.4 %) and 98.7 % (RSD = 2.3 %), respectively. The limit of detection (S/N = 3) and limit of quantification (S/N = 10) were 0.1 and 0.3 ng/mL, respectively. The new synthesis strategy opens a viable way to prepare large–size porous spherical COFs, and the developed analytical method can be potentially applied to sensitively detect the trace BPF in water samples and beverages.

The wastewater discharge from the process of chrome plating, which contains 6:2 chlorinated polyfluorinated ether sulfonate (F-53B) and chromium (Cr), may be toxic to biofilm. In this study we found that the biofilm formed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa PAO1 was inhibited by exposure to a combination of F-53B and Cr(VI). The combined pollution damaged the cell membranes and the structure of the biofilm, and inhibited the production of the Pseudomonas quinolone-based signal, which affected biofilm formation. Moreover, the secretion of extracellular polymeric substances decreased as a result of this combined exposure. Exposure to F-53B and Cr(VI) individually or in combination could induce the excessive accumulation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), and the ROS positive rate of the bacteria increased under the treatment with 0.2 mmol/L of Cr(VI) and 250 nmol/L of F-53B, respectively. In addition, the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and catalase (CAT) were enhanced for scavenging ROS in the bacteria that were exposed to Cr(VI) and F-53B. As an antioxidant, rutin was used to repair the toxicity of Cr(VI) and F-53B towards the biofilm formed by the bacteria. When rutin was added to the bacteria medium, with either Cr(VI) or F-53B as pollutant, or with the combined pollutants, the extracellular protein content of the bacteria recovered to 0.84, 0.94, and 0.85 times that of the control, respectively. Meanwhile, the accumulation of ROS and the activities of SOD and CAT decreased, which indicated that the addition of rutin can alleviate the oxidative stress and promote the antioxidant stress system.

Iron(III) ethylenediaminetetraacetate (Fe(III)EDTA) is widely used in iron fortification for reducing iron deficiency, and its determination is urgently needed. The present work developed a fluorescent method to straightforwardly determine Fe(III)EDTA by using photoluminescent carbon dots (C-dots) with the aid of F − ions as the masking agent of free Fe 3+ ions. In the presence of F − ions, only Fe(III)EDTA selectively quenched the photoluminescence of C-dots, and both Fe 3+ and Fe 2+ as well as other carboxylic acids have no effect on the emission of C-dots. The sensing mechanism was attributed to the ligand-tailored electron transfer process from C-dots to Fe 3+ . Under optimum conditions, this method showed a linear calibration plot over the Fe(III)EDTA range of 1.0–200 μmol L −1 and a detection limit of 0.4 μmol L −1 . The proposed method was successfully applied to determine Fe(III)EDTA in real samples with acceptable recoveries of spikes (95%−110%) and repeatability (RSD, 4.2%−9.5%).

Lithium cobalt oxide (LiCoO 2 ) is proverbially employed as cathode materials of lithium-ion batteries attributed to the high theoretical capacity, and currently, it is developing towards higher cut-off voltages in the pursuit of higher energy density. However, it suffers from serious structural degradation and surface side reactions, in particular, at the voltage above 4.60 V, leading to rapid decay of the battery life. Taking into account the desirable oxygen buffering property and the fast ion mobility characteristic of cerium oxide fluoride, in this work, we prepared Ce & F co-modified LiCoO 2 by using the precursors of Ce(NO 3 ) 3 ·6H 2 O and NH 4 F, and evaluated the electrochemical performance under voltages exceeding 4.60 V. The results indicated that the modified samples have multiphase heterostructure of surface CeO 2− x and unique Ce O F solid solution phase. At 3.0–4.60 V and 25 °C, the preferred sample LCO-0.5Ce-0.3F has a high initial discharge specific capacity of 221.9 mA h g −1 at 0.1 C, with the retention of 80.3% and 89.6% after 300 cycles at 1 and 5 C, comparing with the pristine LCO (56.4% and 22.6%). And at 3.0–4.65 V, its retention is 64.0% after 300 cycles at 1 C, versus 8.5% of the pristine LCO. Through structural characterizations and DFT calculations, it suggests that Ce 4+ & F − co-doping suppresses the H3 to H1/3 irreversible phase transition, stabilizes the lattice structure, and reduces the redox activity of the lattice oxygen by modulating the Co 3 d –O 2 p energy band, consequently improving the electrochemical performance of LiCoO 2 at high voltages.

Metabolites with high chemical reactivity serve important roles in chemical defenses of organisms. Formaldehyde, as a simple and highly reactive small molecule, can be produced by microorganisms, plants, and animals. Its toxicity is well known, but information about its other biological functions remains scarce. Here, we report that the natural product SEK34b produced by Streptomyces species can react nonenzymatically with formaldehyde in water to yield the methylene-bridged dimer phaeochromycin F. This process can eliminate the toxic substance formaldehyde produced by Staphylococcus aureus. Furthermore, there is a substantial inhibitory impact of phaeochromycin F on S. aureus. We hypothesize that these constitute an integrated system of defense and attack of Streptomyces species against competitors. Our study indicates that formaldehyde can react with vancomycin and tigecycline under mild conditions to generate the derivatives bearing an imidazolidin-4-one moiety, thereby reducing the antibacterial activity of these antibiotics. These data provide a possible chemical interaction mechanism of bacteria involving the nonenzymatic reactions of formaldehyde with highly reactive natural products.

Tigecycline (TIGE) plays a significant role in the management of complex and serious bacterial infection. The monitoring of TIGE content in plasma and the further application in pharmacokinetic (PK) study is important for clinical medicine, however, the facile and effective strategy is limited. Herein, a sensitive, accurate and facile method for TIGE detection was developed by fluorescence with F, N codoping carbon dots (F, N-CDs) as probe. F, N-CDs exhibited stable maximum emission fluorescence at 500 nm and large Stokes shift of 135 nm. Such property help to weaken the possible self-absorption of biological system and the spectral overlap of fluorophore . Thus, using F, N-CDs as probe, the method exhibited accuracy and similarity of the analytical performance of TIGE detection in human plasma and rat plasma. The validated method was successfully applied to the PK research of TIGE in rat after intravenous injection at three dose levels of 1 μg/g, 2 μg/g, and 4 μg/g at different time-points. The obtained PK parameters of TIGE using this method were basically consistent with current clinical practice. The findings demonstrated the application ability of F, N-CDs for PK study of TIGE ascribed to the clinical need of simple operation, accuracy and rapidity.

g-C 3 N 4 (CN) based catalysts were effective for photocatalytic ozonation (PCO), but their stability during reaction remained a mystery. This study investigated the change on PCO activity and stability of CN induced by F or I doping. Compared with CN, F-CN had the greater VB potential while I-CN had a greater CB position, which both led to their better O 3 activation. F-CN and I-CN PCO showed the greater oxalic acid (OA) degradation than that of CN PCO process. Though the enhanced activity, both F-CN and I-CN demonstrated the lower stability compared with that of CN. Because of the existing of reactive oxygen species (ROS) like •OH, •O 2 - and h vb + , CN, F-CN and I-CN were partially oxidized, generating NO 3 - and organic molecules such as cyanuric acid. h vb + and •OH mainly accounted for the decomposition of three CN. Triazine ring oxidation resulted in internal tearing and edge fracture as well as the formation of O-containing groups on all CN-based catalysts. O contents in catalysts initially increased and then decreased with reaction time, indicating that surface O-containing groups were unstable. The structural destroy could be eased with the present of organic pollutants. This study deepened the understanding of fate of CN based catalysts during PCO application.

Carbon dots (CDs) have shown great promise in a wide range of bioapplications due to their tunable optical properties and noncytotoxicity. For the first time, a rational strategy was designed to construct new bio-nanoplatforms based on carboxylic acid terminated CDs (CDs-COOH) conjugating with amino terminated F-substituted nano-hydroxyapatite (NFAp) via EDC/NHS coupling chemistry. The monodisperse NFAp nanorods were functionalized with o-phosphoethanolamine (PEA) to provide them with amino groups and render them hydrophilic with respect to the ligand exchange process. The CDs-COOH@PEA-NFAp conjugates exhibits bright blue fluorescence under UV illumination, excellent photostability and colloidal stability. Due to their low cytotoxicity and good biocompatibility as determined by methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) assay, the CDs-COOH@PEA-NFAp conjugates were successfully applied as bio-nanoplatforms to MCF-7 breast cancer cells for cellular imaging in vitro. More importantly, the functional CDs conjugated to NFAp provide an extended and general approach to construct different water-soluble NFAp bio-nanoplatforms for other easily functionalised luminescent materials. Therefore, these green nanoplatforms may be a prospective candidate for applications in bioimaging or targeted biological therapy and drug delivery.

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.

As an attractive alternative technology for the separation of long chain olefin and paraffin, a novel silver-based deep eutectic solvent (Ag-DES) was prepared and utilized for 1-octene/n-octane separations. Comprehensive reactive extraction separation experiments were performed to highlight the Ag-DES concentration and operating temperature discriminations using compounds with different ratio of 1-octene/n-octane. The novel Ag-DES showed optimal separation performance regarding 1-octene/n-octane and possessed the highest levels separation selectivity in the range 3.57–16.11 with excellent circulation stability in our best knowledge. Furthermore, FT-Raman measurements and quantum chemistry calculation were performed to elucidate the interaction mechanism of Ag-DES in the separation of 1-octene and n-octane, which revealed that both chemical complexation and strong physical attraction existed in the complex of Ag-DES and 1-octene rather than n-octane. A practical process was proposed for the separation of olefin and paraffin, which indicates that an advanced separation technology could largely reduce the energy consumption. This study lends important insight for the development of Ag-DES reactive extraction separation process for the energy-efficient long chain α-olefins purification from F-T synthesis products.
