To enhance biocompatibility and physiological stability of hydrophobic MnO nanoparticles as contrast agent of T 1 -weighted magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), dopamine-functionalized poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) was used to coat the surface of about 5 nm MnO nanoparticles. Although hydrophilic coating might decrease longitudinal relaxivity due to inhibiting the intimate contact between manganese of nanoparticle surface and proton in water molecules, higher longitudinal relaxivity was still maintained by manipulating the PEGylation degree of MnO nanoparticles. Moreover, in vivo MRI demonstrated considerable signal enhancement in liver and kidney using PEGylated MnO nanoparticles. Interestedly, the PEGylation induced the formation of about 120 nm clusters with high stability in storing and physiological conditions, indicating passive targeting potential to tumor and prolonged circulation in blood. In addition, the cytotoxicity of PEGylated MnO nanoparticles also proved negligible. Consequently, the convenient PEGylation strategy toward MnO nanoparticles could not only realize a good “trade-off” between hydrophilic modification and high longitudinal relaxivity but also contribute additional advantages, such as passive targeting to tumor and long blood circulation, to MRI diagnosis of tumor. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Mimetics of superoxide dismutases (SOD), with certain ability to eliminate superoxide radicals under aerobic conditions, would be promising as drug candidates for antioxidant therapy. Many efforts have been devoted to synthesize small molecular compounds to mimic the functionality of natural SOD. In this paper, the Mn(III)/Co(III)/Fe(III) complexes have been synthesized with the Schiff base ligand (NaH 2 L), which was condensed from 2-hydroxynaphthalen-1-naphthaldehyde and 3,4-diaminobenzenesulfonic acid. The structures of complexes 1 and 3 have been determined by X-ray crystallographic method, and all the complexes have been investigated using FT-IR, MS. The binding constants between metal complexes and bovine serum albumin (BSA) have been determined by fluorescence spectroscopy. Meanwhile, we have synthesized 3 hybrid proteins through the interaction of the complexes and BSA. The SOD-like activity was tested by xanthine/xanthine oxidase method. The result shows that BSA molecule can increase the SOD activity of the transition metal complexes.

A high-efficient, low-cost, and eco-friendly catalyst is highly desired to activate peroxides for environmental remediation. Due to the potential synergistic effect between bimetallic oxides’ two different metal cations, these oxides exhibit superior performance in the catalytic activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS). In this work, novel Mn1.8Fe1.2O4 nanospheres were synthesized and used to activate PMS for the degradation of bisphenol A (BPA), a typical refractory pollutant. The catalytic performance of the Mn1.8Fe1.2O4 nanospheres was substantially greater than that of the Mn/Fe monometallic oxides and remained efficient in a wide pH range from 4 to 10. More importantly, a synergistic effect between solid-state Mn and Fe was identified in control experiments with Mn3O4 and Fe3O4. Mn was inferred to be the primary active site in the surface of the Mn1.8Fe1.2O4 nanospheres, while Fe(III) was found to play a key role in the synergism with Mn by acting as the main adsorption site for the reaction substrates. Both sulfate and hydroxyl radicals were generated in the PMS activation process. The intermediates of BPA degradation were identified and the degradation pathways were proposed. This work is expected to help to elucidate the rational design and efficient synthesis of bimetallic materials for PMS activation.

We presented a homogeneous heparin-mediated fluorescence anisotropy (FA) assay of antithrombin (AT) based on long-lived luminescent polyethyleneimine capped Mn-doped ZnS (PEI-Mn-ZnS) QDs. The PEI-Mn-ZnS QDs with long lifetime luminescence at 585 nm displayed a very low background of FA value, which was very helpful for FA assaying of large molecules. The medium heparin was crucial for AT determination, and different heparin amounts resulted in different linear range of detection and sensitivity. For example, the limit of detection (LOD) of 0.9 nM AT with a detection linear range from 8.6 nM to 21.5 nM was found when the heparin concentration was 75 μM. The proposed method also exhibited high selectivity over the coexisting or related proteins such as human serum albumin and thrombin.

Discrimination of glycoproteins with different glycans is a significant but difficult issue. We presented here a new strategy for strengthening the discrimination of glycoproteins by introducing a new signaling channel, fluorescence polarization (FP), into a “single probe with three signaling channels” sensor array. The single probe was aminophenylboronic-acid-conjugated poly(acrylic acid)–Mn-doped ZnS quantum dots, and the three signaling channels were FP, room temperature phosphorescence and light scattering. Ten glycoproteins, including ovalbumin, fibrinogen, transferrin, horseradish peroxidase, vascular endothelial growth factor, immunoglobulin G, avidin, hyaluronidase, cellulase R-10, and glucose oxidase, were involved for evaluating the discriminating capability. The introduction of the FP signaling channel improved the discriminating power of the sensor array, so that the 10 glycoproteins at 0.15 μM could be well discriminated both in PBS buffer and in the presence of human serum sample. The identification accuracy of the unknown samples was 96.25% (77 out of 80) at the 0.15 μM level and 97.50% (78 out of 80) at the 0.2 μM level. The integration of the signaling patterns with different responsive principles was demonstrated as the promising way to enhance the discrimination power of the single-probe-based sensor arrays.

Catalytic oxidation of 5-Hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF) feedstock to value-added chemical 2,5-diformylfuran (DFF) is of great importance in biomass valorization. However, it is still challenging to develop non-noble metal-based catalysts for high selectivity of DFF due to the coexistence of other undesired derivatives. In this study, Mn x Mg 1-x SnO 3 was prepared by Mn incorporating into the crystalline lattice of MgSnO 3 , triggering synergetic catalysis for selective aerobic oxidation of HMF to DFF. Among polymetallic oxides with varying Mn-Mg molar ratios, Mn 0.67 Mg 0.33 SnO 3 (Mn/Mg ratio = 2:1) exhibited the best catalytic activity with DFF yield of 80.6 % and selectivity of 87.5 % at 160 °C for 6 h. It is revealed by various characterization analysis that Mn species in Mn 0.67 Mg 0.33 SnO 3 could not only act as active sites directly but also promote the transformation of oxygen into singlet oxygen for HMF oxidation. Furthermore, the used Mn 0.67 Mg 0.33 SnO 3 catalyst could be successfully reactivated through a straightforward two-step regeneration method involving impregnation followed by calcination, demonstrating remarkable stability.

Herein, the novel Mn-Co-P nano-spheres and acacia wood-derived activated carbon (ACWC) as positive and negative electrodes, respectively, were used to develop an ultra-stable asymmetric supercapacitor. The Mn-Co-P nano sphere was synthesized by a hydrothermal method to give distinct characterization morphology and electrochemical performance. Detail with regard to its physical and chemical properties of the active material coated on the nickel substrate are studied by X-ray diffraction, field-emission scanning electron microscopy, field-emission transmission electron microscopy, high-resolution X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and N 2 adsorption-desorption isotherms. The electrochemical properties of the prepared materials were tested in electrolyte by cyclic voltammetry (CV), galvanostatic charge-discharge (GCD), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Results show that the Mn-Co-P electrode has a high specific capacity of 119.34 mAh g −1 at 0.5 A g −1 current density. The ACWC active carbon was prepared from acacia wood to give a high surface area of 1210 m 2 g −1 , with a high specific capacitance of 225 F g −1 at 0.5 A g −1 . Asymmetric supercapacitor devices based on the electrodes exhibit a high energy density of 36.2 Wh kg −1 at 850.00 W kg −1 . In addition, outstanding cycling number stability of 93.3 % capacitance retention over 10,000 cycles was achieved using sodium sulphate (0.5 M) as an electrolyte.

In the zinc production industry using Mn-rich zinc ore, substantial quantities of anodic slime are generated during electrolytic zinc production, containing ∼ 40 % Mn and ∼ 3 % Pb. While a valuable secondary resource, this material poses environmental risks as solid waste. Conventional reductive leaching methods rely on costly reductants and generate high carbon emissions. This study introduces a process utilizing flue gas from zinc plants as a reductant, achieving 92 % Mn leaching efficiency while simultaneously extracting 25 % Sr and fixing 92 % SO 2 as sulfate in solution. Kinetic analysis shows a mixed control model with an activation energy of 13.83 kJ/mol, with reaction rates further enhanced by optimizing gas inlet design. The MnSO 4 -rich leachate is processed into battery-grade MnSO 4 powder, and Sr is recovered as SrCO 3 , suitable for use as an additive in electrolytic zinc processes. Additionally, NaOH consumption for flue gas desulfurization decreases significantly from 2.14 kg to 0.17 kg per Nm 3 . Economic evaluation indicates reagent costs represent only 2 % of the total value of MnSO 4 and SrCO 3 products, offering a sustainable pathway for anodic slime utilization and SO 2 mitigation in zinc smelting.

Alkaline water/seawater electrolysis has drawn broad concern for green hydrogen production. Design and development of efficient, stable, and inexpensive bifunctional catalysts is one great bottleneck to overall alkaline water/seawater splitting. Herein, high-valence Mo, Mn co-doped amorphous bimetallic sulfide (MoMn-NiCoS) was prepared by facile pulse electrodeposition technology. High-valence Mo, Mn significantly enhanced the bifunctional catalytic performances for elevated reaction kinetics and rapid charge transfer with optimal electron structure modulation. Therefore, MoMn-NiCoS exhibited excellent bifunctional performances with low overpotentials of 70/69/73 mV and 247/226/282 mV at 10 mA cm −2 for hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) and oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in alkaline water/simulated seawater/natural seawater , respectively. Besides, MoMn-NiCoS||MoMn-NiCoS electrolyzers required small cell voltages of 1.57/1.56/1.62 V to reach 10 mA cm −2 for overall alkaline water/simulated seawater/natural seawater splitting. Moreover, MoMn-NiCoS performed prominent stability during the 50 h-chronopotentiometry test at 50 mA cm −2 for the electrolyzer. Meanwhile, NiCo-based hydroxides/oxyhydroxides and sulfate ions were formed for electrocatalyst surface reconstruction during catalytic process, which were beneficial to the excellent bifunctional electrocatalytic activities and chloride repulsion. No hypochlorite formation verified the superior chloride oxidation inhibition of MoMn-NiCoS. The excellent catalytic performances of MoMn-NiCoS were attributed to the high-valence dual-cation doping, amorphous structure, electron structure modulation, synergetic effect, and surface reconstruction. This work provided an insightful strategy for the design and development of high-efficiency, stable, and cost-effective bifunctional electrocatalysts for overall alkaline water/seawater electrolysis.

Crystal structure and surface modulation of Co 3 O 4 catalyst holds great promise for the improvement of catalytic performance for propane oxidation. In this study, Mn doping in Co 3 O 4 was first adapted to introduce crystal defects. And acid etching was then used to orchestrate the surface properties of Mn doped Co 3 O 4 . The combination of both Mn doping and acid etching resulted in a distorted crystal structure, which significantly activates the Co-O bonds, obviously increasing the exposed active oxygen and enhancing the intrinsic oxidation ability. Consequently, as a catalyst for propane oxidation, Mn-Co 3 O 4 -H facilitates the acetate intermediate generation and its decomposition, resulting in an excellent oxidation activity with propane conversion rate 3.8 times higher than that of the pristine Co 3 O 4 catalyst at reaction temperature of 195 °C. Meanwhile, the catalyst demonstrates a stable hydrothermal performance with negligible deactivation during 30 h on-stream test. This study set an important paradigm for the structure and surface manipulation of Co 3 O 4 catalyst for efficient propane oxidation.

The advancement of large-scale and environmentally-friendly solid-state synthesis methods is of paramount importance for the production of precipitated catalysts, notably Fe-based catalysts utilized in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS). In this study, we present an innovative solvent-independent, wastewater-free solid-state approach for the synthesis of highly efficient Fe/ZrO 2 catalysts, elucidating the mechanisms of promotion within this specific methodology. The prepared catalysts underwent rigorous evaluation under industrially-relevant FTS conditions (230–270 °C, 20 bar, and WHSV = 5400 mL/(g cat ⋅h)). A comprehensive suite of characterization techniques was employed to establish the intricate interplay between catalytic activity and structural attributes. We meticulously examined the impact of Na as an alkali promoter and the role of transition metals (Cu and Mn) in enhancing FTS catalytic performance. The catalytic outcomes obtained clearly demonstrate the pivotal role of the synergistic interaction between Mn and Na within the Na-Mn-Fe/ZrO 2 catalyst system in driving the FTS reaction. This synergism significantly enhances FTS performance, yielding an impressive CO conversion rate (89.91 %) while maintaining low selectivity to CH 4 (7.75 %). The incorporation of Mn and Na into the catalyst matrix enhances the dispersion of Fe 2 O 3 , thereby improving the reducibility of Mn/Fe oxides and elevating the electron density on the catalyst surface. These factors facilitate the formation of active Hägg iron carbide (χ-Fe 5 C 2 ), stimulating chain propagation and ultimately leading to the generation of valuable C 5+ hydrocarbon products, which underscores its potential as an optimal candidate for future industrial applications in Fe-based Fischer-Tropsch synthesis.
