Novel ionic state Co passivated carbon nanodots (Co-CDs) combined with NH 2 -MIL-125 as efficient photocatalysts Co-CDs/NH 2 -MIL-125 were fabricated in a convenient process for the first time. These materials exhibited excellent photocatalytic activity in both NO purification and hydrogen production under visible light irradiation. The NO purification rate of Co-CDs/NH 2 -MIL-125 increased to 46.6%, which was 20.2% and 13.4% higher than that of NH 2 -MIL-125 and CDs/NH 2 -MIL-125, respectively. Moreover, the hydrogen production efficiency of Co-CDs/NH 2 -MIL-125 reached 2261 μmol g −1 , which was 6.86 times and 3.54 times of the values for NH 2 -MIL-125 and CDs/NH 2 -MIL-125, respectively. The corresponding properties characterized by Mott-Schottky, UCPL , and in situ DRIFTS , indicated that the introduction of Co 2+ could not only passivate the CDs to further improve physicochemical properties, but also enhance the photocatalytic activity via the photosensitization and up-conversion effect. This research provides a promising strategy that adding active metal ions passivated CDs in the catalyst platform to improve photocatalytic performance.

Nitric oxide (NO) is a short-lived intermediate of the oceanic nitrogen cycle, and it is produced by biological and photochemical processes in the ocean. Nitrogen dioxide (NO2) is a reactive atmospheric compound which has not been determined in the ocean so far. Here, we present the setup and validation of a novel continuous underway measurement system to measure dissolved NO and NO2 in the surface ocean. The system consists of a seawater/gas equilibration component coupled to a chemiluminescence detector. It was successfully deployed during a 12 day cruise to the East China Sea in May 2018. Dissolved NO and NO2 surface concentrations ranged from

Zeolite X was used as support of copper catalyst (Cu/X) for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) of nitrogen oxide (NO) with ammonia (NH 3 ). Modulated excitation in situ/ operando infrared (IR) spectroscopy and phase-sensitive detection (PSD) were applied to study the reaction intermediates that formed on the Cu/X during transient experiments. Changing the gas concentration to periodically create unsteady conditions enabled the selective extraction of the dynamic species that were directly involved in the reaction. The IR results showed that only Lewis acid sites (L X ) existed on zeolite X,and Brønsted acid sites (B) and extra Lewis acid sites (L Cu ) were generated after Cu loading. The transient experiment results indicated that the SCR reactions on Cu/X obeys the Eley − Rideal (E − R) mechanism, in which NH 3 is first adsorbed on the L X and L Cu sites (L X –NH 3 , L Cu –NH 3 ) and then moved to the B sites (B–NH 3 ), where it reacted with gas-phase NO to form NH 2 NO intermediate, which finally decomposed into N 2 and H 2 O. Moreover, it is found that the NH 3 adsorbed on L Cu and B sites exhibits stronger reactivity than that on the L X sites.

Gas therapy and embolization are important treatment methods for solid tumors. In order to improve the efficacy of NO therapy and simplify the operation of interventional embolization, we designed and prepared the microacidic-gelled poly[(L-Glutamic acid- ran -L-Tyrosine)- b -L-Threonine- b -L-S-nitrosocysteine]s (PGTTSNCs, obtained by the reaction of tert-butyl nitrite with thiol side groups of poly[(L-Glutamic acid- ran -L-Tyrosine)- b -L-Threonine- b -L-Cysteines]s, PGTTCs.) for noninterventional embolization combined with NO gas therapy for solid tumors. The results of in vivo experiments indicated that PGTTSNCs from PGTTCs-6.4 (the gelled-pH value is 6.4) has significant target-accumulation and therapy effects, and at 10 days post-injection only scars were found at the tumor site. After 20 days, the tumors of model mice were completely disappeared. The method is extremely simple and efficient for solid tumors, which is not only a great innovation of tumors theranostic, but also a qualitative development in nanomaterials .

A combined acid–alkali hydrothermal method was used to prepare fly ash –derived SAPO-34 molecular sieves from a thermal power plant in Inner Mongolia (China). The specific surface area of the prepared fly-ash-derived SAPO-34 molecular sieves was 579 m 2 g −1 , the total pore volume was about 0.27 cm 3 g −1 , and the pore size was 0.56 nm; the molar ratios of Al 2 O 3 :P 2 O 5 :SiO 2 were 1:0.86:0.45. Cu/SAPO-34 catalysts were prepared by impregnation of low-cost fly-ash-derived SAPO-34 molecular sieves as a support and tested in selective catalytic reduction with NH 3 (NH 3 -SCR). Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), N 2 adsorption–desorption, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), H 2 temperature-programmed reduction (H 2 -TPR), NH 3 temperature-programmed desorption (NH 3 -TPD), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), X-ray fluorescence analysis (XRF) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were used for catalyst characterization and investigation of the relationships between the catalyst structure and the catalytic activity. The actual silica:alumina ratio of the molecular sieves did not increase with increasing Cu loading, indicating that increasing the Cu loading does not change the original structure of the SAPO-34 molecular sieves. The XRF and NMR results showed that replacement by Cu results in more Si islands. The molecular sieve acidity decreased because of the increased number of Si islands. The NH 3 -TPD results showed that for the Cu/SAPO-34 catalysts there was a low correlation between the low-temperature activity and the amount of acidic sites. SCR activity is closely related to the location of Cu. The 4.47Cu/SAPO-34 catalyst has the highest isolated Cu 2+ showed the highest NH 3 -SCR activities (> 90%) at 250–350 °C. This work opens up new avenues for recycling fly ash formed in coal-fired power plants (reducing environmental pollution) and developing low-cost SCR catalysts for NO x pollution control.

The present research indicated that a new self-microemulsifying drug delivery systems (SMEDDS) were used to reduce the food effect of poorly water-soluble drug cinacalcet and enhance the bioavailability in beagle dogs by oral gavage. Ethyl oleate, OP-10, and PEG-200 was selected as the oil phase, surfactant and co-surfactant of cinacalcet-SMEDDS by the solubility and phase diagram studies. Central Composite Design-Response Surface Methodology was used to determine the ratio of surfactant and co-surfactant, the amount of oil for optimizing the SMEDDS formation. The prepared formulations were further characterized by the droplet size, self-microemulsifying time, zeta potential, polydispersity index (PDI), and robustness to dilution. The in vitro release profile of cinacalcet-SMEDDS was determined in four different release medium and in fasted state and fed state of simulated gastrointestinal fluid. Cinaclcet-SMEDDS were implemented under fed and fasted state in dogs and product REGPARA® was used as a comparison to the prepared formulation in the pharmacokinetics. The result showed the components of SMEDDS, the amount of oil, the ratio of surfactant, and co-surfactant was optimized using solubility, pseudo-ternary phase diagram studies, and response surface methodology. In vitro drug release studies indicated that the cinacalcet-SMEDDS eliminated the effect of pH variability in release medium and variational gastroenteric environments with improved drug release performance. Pharmacokinetic studies revealed that the profiles of cinacalcet-SMEDDS were similar both in the fasted and fed state compared with commercial product, indicating the formulation significantly promoted the absorption, enhanced bioavailability and had no food effect essentially. It is concluded that poorly water-soluble drug cinacalcet was improved in the solubility and bioavailability by using a successful oral dosage form the SMEDDS, and eliminated food effect as well.

Removing low-concentration NO in the air by means of photocatalytic technology is a promising approach. Herein, our work pins down the mechanism of cobalt metal doping within the lattice of Bi 4 Ti 3 O 12 (BTO) for the photocatalytic NO conversion. As a result, the Co-BTO exhibits a NO conversion efficiency of 58.3 %, which is substantially higher than that of BTO (30 %). More interestingly, the Co-BTO also shows a lower production of intermediate NO 2 than that of the BTO. These findings demonstrate that within Co-BTO, both Co²⁺ and Co³ ⁺ coexist. The redox cycle between these two cobalt species engenders active sites possessing strong reducing capabilities for O₂ which can be adsorbed and activated at the Co sites, thereby generating superoxide radicals (•O₂⁻). Furthermore, the doping of a certain portion of cobalt broadened light absorption and enhanced the separation efficiency of photogenerated carriers, further facilitating the activation of O₂. Lastly, electron spin resonance (ESR) and in-situ diffuse reflective infrared Fourier transform spectroscopy (in-situ DRIFTS) were respectively utilized to further clarify the active species involved in the photocatalytic oxidation of NO and its adsorption and conversion pathways from a mechanistic standpoint. Overall, this work represents a novel endeavor for the advancement of visible-light-driven photocatalysts usage for environmental remediation against NO pollution.

Although significant progress in developing biodegradable magnesium alloy materials in cardiovascular stents has been achieved recently, they still face challenges such as rapid in vivo corrosion degradation, inferior blood compatibility, and limited re-endothelialization after the implantation. Hydrogel coating that can catalyze the liberation of gas signal molecules offers a good solution to alleviate the corrosion rate and enhance the biocompatibility of magnesium and its alloys. In this study, based on alkaline heat treatment and construction of polydopamine coating on the surface of magnesium alloy, sodium alginate/carboxymethyl chitosan (SA/CMCS) gel was simultaneously covalently grafted onto the surface to build a natural polymer hydrogel coating, and selenocystamine (SeCA) and CO release molecules (CORM-401) were respectively immobilized on the surface of the hydrogel coating to ameliorate the anticoagulant performance and accelerate endothelial cells (ECs) growth by catalyzing the release of endogenous gas signal molecules (NO or CO). The findings verified that the as-prepared hydrogel coating can catalyze the liberation of CO or NO and significantly improve the corrosion resistance of magnesium alloy. At the same time, owing to the excellent hydrophilicity of the hydrogel coating, the good anticoagulant property of sodium alginate, and the ability of CMCS to promote the ECs growth, the modified magnesium alloy could significantly improve the albumin adsorption while preventing the adsorption of fibrinogen, hence significantly augmenting the anticoagulant properties and promoting the ECs growth. Under the catalytic release of NO or CO, the released gas molecules further enhanced hemocompatibility and promoted endothelial cell (EC) growth and the expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and NO of ECs. Therefore, the bioactive coatings that can catalyze the release of NO or CO have potential applications in constructing surface bioactive coatings for magnesium alloy materials used for intravascular stents.

Surface engineering of TiO2 is significant in the SCR reaction and worth studying. In a previous study, we found that TiO2 nanosheets (TiO2-NS) with the (001) plane exhibited a much better SCR performance than TiO2 nanoparticles (TiO2-NP) with the (101) plane. In this work, in situ DRIFTS and DFT calculations were applied to address the promotional effect of the (001) plane of TiO2-NS in the SCR reaction. The behavior of adsorption and desorption of NOx and NH3 on the two surfaces was studied. It was found that NH3 adsorbed on both TiO2-NS and TiO2-NP was in the form of NH3(g) on the Lewis acid sites. NOx on TiO2-NP were mainly trans-(NO)2 and N2O4 which were non-reactive. Differently, NO on TiO2-NS was mainly in the form of NO2 which was probably due to the high energy and abundant active oxygen species of the (001) facet. The formed NO2 could trigger the subsequent ‘fast SCR’ reaction thereafter promoting the activity. Therefore, TiO2-NS with more (001) facets had better SCR activity than TiO2-NP with the exposed (101) facet.

The present investigation involved the preparation of N-doped high-specific surface porous activated carbon from lignin through hydrothermal carbonization, polymer premixing, and KOH activation. We looked at how the characteristics of lignin-based activated carbon were affected by the addition of polypyrrole and the alkali ratio. The addition of polymer polypyrrole as an N dopant during the activation process with KOH resulted in the N-doped biomass-based activated carbon with a greater pore size range, specific surface area, and pore volume, while also further encouraging the pore creation. Under the optimal preparation conditions, specifically hydrothermal treatment at 473 K and activation at 1073 K for 1 h, with a mass ratio of activator to carbon precursor of 4:1, the resulting activated carbon exhibited the highest BET surface area of 3415 m 2 /g and a total pore volume of 2.81 cm 3 /g. The various characteristics of activated carbon are examined using N 2 adsorption/desorption, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), elemental analysis (EA), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). Comparing this sample to other adsorbents, it was found that the material had a greater capacity for adsorbing gaseous benzene and NO. In static adsorption tests, the saturated adsorption of gaseous benzene reached 3338.75 and 2297.69 mg/g at 273 and 298 K, respectively, while the adsorption of NO reached 560.76 and 226.99 mg/g. Adsorption isotherms were used to analyze the experimental results, which were then fitted, examined, and assessed to look into the adsorption mechanism. The outcomes demonstrated the good adsorption performance of this sample as well as its promising and useful application potential in the removal of gaseous benzene and NO. Graphical

The reduction of NO by CO was proposed to be applied for regeneration gas to remove NOx from industrial flue gas with activated carbon purification technology. To improve the activity and sulfur resistance for the reduction of NO by CO in regeneration gas, Cu and Fe modifications on activated carbon were investigated. And various samples were characterized by XRD, XPS, TPD, H2-TPR, in situ DRIFTS and DFT calculations to explain the reaction mechanism and poisoning mechanism. The synergistic effects of oxygen-containing functional groups and metal sites show that –COOH acts as an anchor site for metals and that C–O–C acts as a protective site for Fe3+ under a SO2 atmosphere. Cu2+ sites have a high activity at low temperatures due to the large amount of adsorbed NO and the intermediate NOx− participating in the reaction with the NOx− pathway. Fe3+ sites have a high activity at high temperatures due to the high N–O dissociation activity with the *N pathway and –NCO pathway. DFT calculations proved that the binding Cu2+ and Fe3+ sites have higher activity than free Cu2+ and Fe3+ sites. A high content of SO2 exhibits various poisoning effects, mainly including the sulfation of metal sites, deposition of S, and consumption of CO. AC-Fe-H exhibits excellent resistance and stability against SO2 and H2O due to less S deposition caused by consumption through the S–CO reaction, slight sulfation caused by the protective effect of Fe2+ and C–O–C on Fe3+ sites and better hydrophobicity.

Constructing oxygen vacancies (OVs) in metal-oxide semiconductors is an effective and simple way to enhance the photocatalytic performance via promoting the utilization of solar light and boosting the formation of surface reactive oxygen species (ROS). The presence of different oxygen atoms in the same crystal structure can possibly lead to the formation of different types of OVs with distinct physicochemical and optoelectronic properties. Particularly, the two different crystallographic positions of oxygen atoms in the [BiO]22+ layer of (BiO)2CO3 (BOC) allow the construction of two types of OVs (OVs1 and OVs2). In this work, OVs1-BOC and OVs2-BOC are synthesized via introducing the OVs1 and OVs2 on the surface of the BOC. The influence of OVs1 and OVs2 on the generation of ROS in the BOC is demonstrated based on theoretical and experimental studies by analyzing the separation and redox potentials of photogenerated charge carriers, absorption surface adsorbates (H2O and O2), and reaction active energy. The photocatalytic performance is evaluated by photo-oxidative nitric oxide (NO) removal efficiency under visible light irradiation. The OVs1-BOC and OVs2-BOC exhibit 50.0 and 41.6% photo-oxidative NO removal efficiencies, while generating 15.6 and 16.54 ppb NO2, respectively. The in situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and estimated NO conversion pathway reveal the photo-oxidative NO removal mechanism and suppression of NO2 formation on the surfaces of OVs1-BOC and OVs2-BOC. This work demonstrates a straightforward approach for enhancing the photo-oxidative NO removal via manipulating the OV defect position in semiconductors.
