Postmenopausal osteoporosis is one of the most prevalent skeletal disorders in women and is featured by the imbalance between intraosseous vascularization and bone metabolism. In this study, a pH-responsive shell–core structured micro/nano-hydrogel microspheres loaded with polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (POSS) using gas microfluidics and ionic cross-linking technology are developed. This micro/nano-hydrogel microsphere system (PDAP@Alg/Cs) can achieve oral delivery, intragastric protection, intestinal slow/controlled release, active targeting to bone tissue, and thus negatively affecting intraosseous angiogenesis and osteoclastogenesis. According to biodistribution data, PDAP@Alg/Cs can successfully enhance drug intestinal absorption and bioavailability through intestine adhesion and bone targeting after oral administration. In vitro and in vivo experiments reveal that PDAP@Alg/Cs promoted type H vessel formation and inhibited bone resorption, effectively mitigating bone loss by activating HIF-1 α /VEGF signaling pathway and promoting heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) expression. In conclusion, this novel oral micro/nano-hydrogel microsphere system can simultaneously accelerate intraosseous vascularization and decrease bone resorption, offering a brand-new approach to prevent postmenopausal osteoporosis.

A novel composite biochar synthesized from Fenton sludge (FS) and sewage sludge (SS) was employed to catalyze persulfate for the removal of 1-H-1,2,4-triazole (TZ). The optimized conditions for the synthesis and operating process were identified through response surface methodology as follow: SS/FS mass ratio = 5:1, catalyst dosage = 0.9 g L −1 and PDS concentration = 0.5 g L −1 . The removal efficiencies of TZ, TOC and organic nitrogen were found to be as high as 97.6%, 80.33% and 100%, respectively, with the addition of Fe 3 O 4 -doped biochar in persulfate catalytic system. Besides, Fe 3 O 4 -doped biochar exhibited superior stability and tolerance to wide range of pH (2–12), temperature (15–45 °C) and co-existing substrate. The reactive oxygen species, which resulted in the catalytic degradation of TZ followed the order of SO 4 ∙− > ∙OH > O 2 ∙− > 1 O 2 , were identified by electron spin resonance and quenching tests. It demonstrated that the radical pathway accomplished with non-radical pathway contributed to the enhanced degradation of TZ, which was further identified by electrochemical experiments. Moreover, the possible degradation pathway of TZ was ascertained and proposed through DFT calculation and LC-MS analysis. These findings illustrated that the novel magnetic biochar would be a promising persulfate catalyst for the treatment of refractory organic matters. In addition, it also provided a new alternative method for the resource utilization of FS and SS.

Atomic H* has been regarded as the key active species for the electrocatalytic hydrodechlorination (ECH), and the electrode design and operation conditions are related to the atomic H* generation. However, there is limited understanding of how the operation parameters affect the atomic H* generation and utilization. Due to the fact that Pd was inefficient in water dissociation step, MnO 2 was combined with Pd to construct a novel Pd/MnO 2 /Ni foam cathode. Cyclic voltammetry confirmed that Pd/MnO 2 /Ni foam cathode with MnO 2 load of 0.51 mg cm −2 possessed the highest atomic H* generation and ECH activity. Excessive Pd load (>0.44 mg cm −2 ) was detrimental to ECH because of the side hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). Operation conditions (e.g. applied current and electrolyte concentration) would directly affect the cathode potential, which was an important indicator of the atomic H* generation. The optimal cathode potential was determined to be −0.85 V when the applied current was 10 mA in this study. The electrolyte concentration of 10–15 mM was able to provide sufficient atomic H* for ECH, while excessive input of electrolyte would favor HER but inhibit ECH. ECH at acidic and neutral/alkaline solution underwent different pathways for atomic H* generation and further affect the utilization of atomic H*. After 120 min reaction, >70% of atomic H* could be selectively used for ECH at initial pH of 4.0 and 5.0, while only ∼37% was used for ECH at initial pH of 7.0. This work correlated the reactivity of electrode with the atomic H* and cathode potential, which would provide strategies for ECH catalyst design and operation optimization.

Lignin is the second largest naturally renewable resource and is primarily a by-product of the pulp and paper industry; however, its inefficient use presents a challenge. In this work, Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles loaded on lignin nanoparticles (Fe₃O₄@LNPs) were prepared by the self-assembly method and it possessed an enhanced peroxidase-like activity. Fe₃O₄@LNPs catalyzed the oxidation of 3,3',5,5'-tetramethylbenzidine (TMB) in the presence of H₂O₂ to generate a blue color, was observable by the naked eye. Under the optimal conditions, Fe₃O₄@LNPs showed the ability of sensitive colorimetric detection of H₂O₂within a range of 5⁻100 μM and the limit of detection was 2 μM. The high catalytic activity of Fe₃O₄@LNPs allows its prospective use in a wide variety of applications, including clinical diagnosis, food safety, and environmental monitoring.

The preparation of ternary hexagonal boron carbon nitride (h-BCN) nanosheets was carried out by doping biomass glucose in situ into hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN). With this method, the construction of a two-dimensional (2D) semiconductor with tunable bandgap and characteristic adsorption ability toward organic molecules was achieved by maintaining the specific structure of h-BN and π-π interactions toward aromatic compounds. The ternary 2D h-BCN nanosheets worked effectively not only as a desirable adsorbent but also as an activator to benzene. Furthermore, the unique 2D h-BCN nanosheets were found to work as effective photocatalysts to convert benzene into phenol with less over-oxidation, leading to the development of a new type of Fenton oxidation reaction as the one-step visible light-driven hydroxylation of benzene. An optimal yield of 14.0% and its selectivity of 88.3% for the photocatalytic production of phenol from benzene were achieved by using h-BCN in the presence of FeCl 3 and H 2 O 2 in sustaining the same reactivity even after 4 cycles. This present study reports the latest development of phenol production from benzene by applying 2D h-BCN nanosheets as an artificial photosynthetic catalyst.

Chronic wounds with bacterial infection present formidable clinical challenges. In this study, a versatile hydrogel dressing with antibacterial and angiogenic activity composite of silk fibroin (SF), chondroitin sulfate (CS), and graphene oxide quantum dots (GOQDs) is fabricated. GOQDs@SF/CS (GSC) hydrogel is rapidly formed through the enzyme catalytic action of horseradish peroxidase. With the incorporation of GOQDs both gelation speed and mechanical properties have been enhanced, and the photothermal characteristics of GOQDs in GSC hydrogel enabling bacterial killing through photothermal treatment (PTT) at ~51 °C. In vitro studies show that the GSC hydrogels demonstrate excellent antibacterial performance and induces type H vessel differentiation of endothelial cells via the activated ERK1/2 signaling pathway and upregulated SLIT3 expression. While in vivo results show that the hydrogel significantly promotes type H vessels formation, which related to the collagen deposition, epithelialization and, ultimately accelerating the regeneration of infected skin defects. Collectively, this multifunctional GSC hydrogel, with dual action of antibacterial efficacy and angiogenesis promotion, emerges as an innovative skin dressing with potential for advancing in infected wound healing.

Glypican-3 (GPC3), which is a surface heparan sulfate proteoglycan, has been widely known the ideal biomarker for diagnosis and treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Accurate and sensitive detection of serum GPC3 level is an important and challenging task. In this paper, a sandwich electrochemical aptasensor was designed to specifically detect serum GPC3 level through aptamer-target-aptamer recognition. A GPC3 aptamer (GPC3 Apt ) immobilized on the surface of gold nanoparticles@reduced graphene oxide modified screen-printed electrode (Au NPs@rGO/SPCE) was used as the capture probe. Hemin-reduced graphene oxide-carboxymethyl chitosan@platinum nanoparticles (H-rGO-CMC@Pt NPs), with good mimicking peroxidases activity, were labeled with amination GPC3 aptamer, which was employed as the signal probe. Once the target GPC3 was anchored on the surface of GPC3 Apt /Au NPs@rGO/SPCE, the H-rGO-CMC@Pt NPs-GPC3 Apt was further specifically bound to the GPC3, forming the aptamer-target-aptamer sandwich structure, which can catalyze the oxidation of hydroquinone (HQ) to benzoquinone (BQ) and lead the oxidation current of HQ recorded by DPV to changing. The linear relationship between the current signal of oxidation of HQ and GPC3 concentration range of 0.0001–3.0 µg/mL and 3.0–60.0 µg/mL, with a low detection limit (LOD) of 0.0685 ng/mL. Additionally, the electrochemical aptasensor was successfully applied for the detection of GPC3 in human serum samples with the recovery of 99.95–104.06 % and relative standard deviation (RSD) of 1.31–5.22 %. Thus, the sandwich aptasensor could provide a new strategy for detection of serum GPC3 level and improve the early diagnosis rate of HCC.

We report on the synthesis of an H-shaped polymer bonding β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) at branch points and influences of attached β-CD on physical properties. First, a poly(ethylene glycol)(PEG)-based functional macroinitiator bearing two azidos and four chlorines at chain-ends (PEG-2N 3 (-4Cl)) was prepared via terminal modification reactions. Then, PEG-2N 3 (-4Cl) was applied to initiate the atom transfer radical polymerization of N-isopropylacrylamide, leading to the synthesis of an H-shaped block polymer with PEG as the central chain and poly( N -isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM) as side-arms (PEG-2N 3 (-4PNIPAM)). Azido groups were at the branch points of the polymer. Finally, the click reaction between PEG-2N 3 (-4PNIPAM) and alkynyl monosubstituted β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) afforded another H-shaped polymer with two β-CDs bonding at the polymer branch points (PEG-2CD(-4PNIPAM)). The glass transition temperature ( T g ) and lower critical solution temperature (LCST) of the H-shaped polymer increased after the attachment of β-CD. The self-assembly and thermal responsive behaviors, as well as the encapsulation behaviors of PEG-2CD(-4PNIPAM) were also altered. When temperature was below the LCSTs, PEG-2N 3 (-2PNIPAM) dissolved in water molecularly, whereas PEG-2CD(-4PNIPAM) could self-assemble into nano-sized micelles. After the LCST transitions, PEG-2N 3 (-4PNIPAM) aggregated into micron-sized unstable particles, whereas PEG-2CD(-4PNIPAM) transformed into PNIPAM-cored nanomicelles. Besides, PEG-2CD(-4PNIPAM) can encapsulate doxorubicin below its LCST due to the formation of micelles. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem, 2013

Non-edible cellulose has attracted considerable attention to be converted into valuable platform chemicals. Direct transformation of cellulose to C6 alditols (mannitol and sorbitol) provides a sustainable route. A productive approach is presented in this work using a Ru/C catalyst combined with H+-released boron phosphate in an aqueous phase. A yield of C6 alditols as high as 74.9% with a 91% conversion of cellulose is achieved. By adding silica–alumina materials, the yield of C6 alditols can be improved to 93.5% with complete conversion. The acid sites gradually released from boron phosphate under hydrothermal conditions could promote the hydrolysis of cellulose without significant degradation of glucose. Furthermore, the interaction of boric acid with C6 alditols may form borate–polyol complexes, which can enhance the stability of the C6 alditols to avoid further hydrogenolysis and dehydration of the C6 alditols formed. Due to the adsorption ability of the substrate, the addition of silica–alumina materials with a high content of silica leads to improved performance.

Electrochemical oxidization of crude ethylene glycol (EG) to fine chemicals driven by sustainable energy is an eco-friendly solution to the upcycling of end-of-life polyethylene terephthalate (PET) wastes. Here, pseudo Ag x -Pt y Pd z core–shell electrocatalyst capable of hybrid oxidation of EG to formate (FA) is designed and synthesized. The trimetallic system consists of Ag nanowire and ultrathin PtPd alloy skin with defects, such as holes and grooves. The defects expose the Ag core to the surroundings and convert Ag 0 to Ag 2+ active species at appropriate potential (> 1.2 V vs RHE). Thus, hybrid EG oxidization reaction is realized on the Ag x -Pt y Pd z electrocatalyst, where PtPd skin catalyzes EG oxidization through conventional Faradaic electrode process owing to inherent activities of Pt and Pd, while Ag 2+ serves as auxiliar oxidant to oxidize EG/intermediates (non-Faradaic reaction). Such a hybrid oxidization strategy reinforces the removal of adsorbates on Ag x -Pt y Pd z electrocatalyst and refresh the active sites timely. Eventually, ultrahigh specific activity (24.45 A mg −1 PtPd ) and long-term stability (> 3000 h at current density ≥ 400 mA cm −2 ) are delivered by the system. The finding of Ag 2+ -enhanced alcohol oxidization reactions introduces a new paradigm for designing high-performance electrocatalysts for energy and environmental applications.

Calcium silicate hydrates (C–S–H) is the primary product of cement hydration, and its structure and properties substantially influence the mechanical performance of cement-based materials. However, in practical applications, pure C–S–H has some shortcomings, such as susceptibility to microcracking and high porosity, which can reduce the durability and overall mechanical performance. To solve these problems, two different sizes of cellulose (microcrystalline cellulose nanoparticles and carboxylated cellulose nanofibers) were used to modify C–S–H nanocomposites, which were synthesized by hydrothermal synthesis. The characterization of the composites was analyzed in detail using methods such as TEM, FT-IR, and TGA. The results of these methods showed that cellulose was uniformly dispersed in the C–S–H matrix on the nanoscale, which formed an interwoven mesh structure. The mechanical properties of the cement paste were tested, including flexural strength and compressive strength. In addition, the cement paste containing the nanocomposites was analyzed by SEM, XRD and hydration heat tests. The results of these tests showed that the seed effect of C–S–H and the effective bridging effect of needle-like cellulose crystals on crack extension significantly improved their mechanical properties.

The sustainable conversion from solar energy to chemical energy is realized by using photocatalytic technology to produce hydrogen and hydrogen peroxide. In this work, the construction of a direct Z-scheme heterojunction is of great significance for improving the efficiency and stability of photocatalytic hydrogen evolution (PHE) and photocatalytic hydrogen peroxide production (PHP). In this study, P-doped h-BN (PBN) nanosheets are used to support the in-situ growth of ZnIn 2 S 4 nanoflowers via wet chemical method, and sandwich-like PBN/ZnIn 2 S 4 hierarchical heterostructures are successfully synthesized. The PHE performance of PBN/ZnIn 2 S 4 (∼59.46 μmol/h) is ∼ 2.35 times than that of the original ZnIn 2 S 4 (∼25.27 μmol/h), and the PHP performance (∼122.82 μmol/L/h) is 39.37 times than that of PBN (∼3.12 μmol/L/h). The excellent photocatalytic performance of PBN/ZnIn 2 S 4 can be attributed to the following points: (1) the acceleration of the separation of photogenerated electron-hole pairs induced by the formation of Z-scheme heterostructure; (2) reasonable design and construction of sandwich-like PBN/ZnIn 2 S 4 hierarchical heterostructure; (3) the promotion the migration and separation of photogenerated carriers by the built-in electric field. This work provides new ideas for the development of high-efficiency PHE and PHP Z-scheme heterojunction photocatalyst design.
