Stimuli-responsive phosphorescence materials with dynamic color-changing properties are highly promising for advanced information security. Herein, we demonstrate a novel strategy that effectively induces tunable dynamic phosphorescence color from carbon dots (CDs) on papers via surface ionization engineering for multimode encryption and information storage. Alkali-induced phenolic hydroxyl ionization on CDs can boost intersystem crossing rates , while surface-ionized groups with negative charges significantly passivate the surface defects and reduce non-radiative transitions, which can activate surface state-related blue phosphorescence emission. Combined with the carbon core state-related yellow-green phosphorescence, excitation/time-dependent phosphorescence color-changing from yellow-green to blue are realized from alkali (Na 2 CO 3 ) treated CDs on paper. Furthermore, benefiting from the transition from NaHCO 3 to Na 2 CO 3 under thermal treatment, dynamic color-changing phosphorescence can also be activated by thermally stimulating NaHCO 3 -treated CDs on paper. Finally, multi-stimuli (alkali or thermal) and multi-modal dynamic phosphorescent colors from a single CDs system are realized for the first time. Based on these unique features, multimode encryption and smart 3D codes with anti-counterfeiting and monitoring functions for medicine during transport or storage are demonstrated by combining an inkjet printing technique using CD inks.

Most chemotherapy agents have serious side effects due to lack of tumor targeting, which affects their clinical application. In addition, as an essential characteristic of malignant tumor, hypoxia is attracting exclusive research focus regarding its non-invasive real-time tracing in novel targeting delivery system. Herein, we designed a mixed micelle with tumor targeting and hypoxia responsiveness for tumor therapy and imaging. In particular, the dual-modified mix micelles were self-assembled by folic acid (FA) and 2-(2-nitroimidazole) ethylamine (NI) conjugated polymers , in which paclitaxel (PTX) and quantum dots (QDs) were co-loaded into the hydrophobic core. The drug loaded micelles showed satisfactory drug encapsulation, good storage stability, and sustained release properties. In vitro cell experiments showed that the mixed micelles exhibited enhanced cytotoxic effect and improved the cellular uptake, especially under hypoxic conditions, which was due to the FA mediated active targeting effect and NI induced hypoxic responsive release. In vivo experiments further proved that the mixed micelles possessed outstanding tumor targeting and hypoxia responsive properties. Furthermore, the drug loaded micelles showed excellent anti-tumor effect and can realize real-time in vivo imaging. This work demonstrates that the dual-modified mixed micelles co-loading with PTX and QDs might provide a novel approach for tumor therapy and imaging.

Development of multifunctional enzymatic nanomaterials with rapid and sensitive characteristics for glutathione determination is extremely urgent for early cancer diagnosis. Herein, a core–shell ultrasensitive nanozyme (denoted as CPT/DM-FA) for triple-mode glutathione sensing and specific in vitro cancer detection is constructed. The dendritic mesoporous silica nanoparticle (DMSN) core not only acts as a camptothecin carrier, but also offers the nanoplatform to synthesize the MnO2 shell. Due to the DMSN-regulated high dispersion of MnO2, the atomic utilization efficiency of MnO2 is surprisingly enhanced, and leads to notable enzymatic activity with Km 0.136 μM and Vmax 0.59 μM/s. In addition, by integrating the quenching ability based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer and oxidase-mimic-mediated 1O2, O2– generation of MnO2, the fluorescence, UV–vis, and colorimetric method for glutathione sensing is established with a comprehensive linear range from 2 to 250 μM and a limit of detection of 0.654 μM. Besides, after surface folic acid modification, the CPT/DM-FA could also specifically detect cancer cells from 25 to 1 50 000 through the color reaction of 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethylbenzidine. We believe this nanozyme could afford a potential strategy to amplify the nanozyme activity for further biomedical applications.

Neurotoxicity seriously affects the normal function of the nervous system. Cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (C3G) is the most abundant anthocyanin widely distributed in plants. Using β -amyloid (A β ) transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans and cell models, the neuroprotective effect of C3G was examined. The results showed that C3G remarkably suppressed A β aggregation, enhanced antioxidant capacity, improved the sensitive capacity towards chemical compounds, and boosted the memory ability of C. elegans . There was no significant difference between preventive and long-term treatment groups at the same dosage of C3G. Given the rapid metabolism and oxidation of C3G in vivo, the antioxidative and anti-inflammatory activities of C3G, the metabolite cyanidin (Cy), oxidation products of Cy (OP), as well as protocatechuic acid (PCA) at the corresponding level in OP were compared by using lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-stimulated BV2 microglia cell model. The results indicated that C3G, Cy, and OP could prevent BV2 cells against LPS-induced inflammation and oxidative damage. There was no significant difference on antioxidative and anti-inflammatory activities among C3G, Cy, and OP at the same level. Notably, PCA at the corresponding concentration in OP exhibited limited antioxidative and anti-inflammatory activities. The results suggested that C3G could exert neuroprotective function through the metabolite Cy and its oxidation products by inhibiting inflammation and oxidative damage, and PCA was not the primary bioactive species in OP. Practical Application This study confirmed the neuroprotection of cyanidin-3-O-glucoside (C3G) in transgenic Caenorhabditis elegans . C3G, its metabolite cyanidin (Cy), and oxidation products of Cy (OP) alleviated both neuroinflammation and oxidative damage. It highlighted that C3G-rich foods could exert neuroprotective potential through their oxidation products, the constitution, and existence of OP in vivo need further study.

Recently, extending single-atom catalysts from mono- to binary sites has been proved to be a promising way to realize more efficient chemical catalytic processes. In this work, atomically dispersed Fe, Pt dinuclear catalysts ((Fe, Pt)SA-N-C) with an ca. 2.38 Å distance for Fe1 (Fe-N3) and Pt1 (Pt-N4) could be precisely controlled via a novel secondary-doping strategy. In response to tumor microenvironments, the Fe-N3/Pt-N4 moieties exhibited synergistic catalytic performance for tumor catalytic therapy. Due to its beneficial microstructure and abundant active sites, the Fe-N3 moiety effectively initiated the intratumoral Fenton-like reaction to release a large amount of toxic hydroxyl radicals (•OH), which further induced tumor cell apoptosis. Meanwhile, the bonded Pt-N4 moiety could also enhance the Fenton-like activity of the Fe-N3 moiety up to 128.8% by modulating the 3d electronic orbitals of isolated Fe-N3 sites. In addition, the existence of amorphous carbon revealed high photothermal conversion efficiency when exposed to an 808 nm laser, which synergistically achieved an effective oncotherapy outcome. Therefore, the as-obtained (Fe, Pt)SA-N-C-FA-PEG has promising potential in the bio-nanomedicine field for inhibiting tumor cell growth in vitro and in vivo.

Circulating tumor cells (CTCs) can be the seeds of tumor metastasis and are closely linked to cancer-related death. Fast and effective detection of CTCs is important for the early diagnosis of cancer and the evaluation of micrometastasis. However, the extreme rarity and heterogeneity of CTCs in peripheral blood make sensitive detection of CTCs a big challenge. In this paper, a TiO2-based surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) bioprobe is reported for the first time with outstanding ultrasensitive specificity, excellent stability of the signal, and good biocompatibility for the detection of CTCs. The TiO2 NPs were encoded with alizarin red (AR) and functionalized with reduced bovine serum protein (rBSA) and folic acid (FA). The limit of detection (LOD) for 4-mercaptobenzoic acid (4-MBA) and AR molecules adsorbed on the TiO2 SERS substrate is 5 × 10−7 M. The designed TiO2-based SERS bioprobe can be effectively utilized in detecting four diverse types of cancer cells in rabbit blood, which shows good sensitivity of the SERS detection technology. Finally, precise targeting of CTCs based on the SERS bioprobe with the function of fluorescence imaging is also confirmed by the fluorescence colouration test. This work offers a novel strategy for CTC detection and the development of non-noble metal semiconductor-based SERS platforms for tumor diagnosis.

Aqueous phase hydrogenative rearrangement of furfural (FAL) to cyclopentanone (CPO) via furfuryl alcohol (FOL) has been studied over Pd catalysts supported on H–ZSM–5 zeolites. Pd states, zeolite properties and reaction condition parameters were optimized, affording 98% selectivity and 120 h −1 specific reaction rate over 2% Pd/H–ZSM–5(25) catalyst at 160 °C and 3 MPa H 2 . For hydrogenation of FAL–to–FOL, the activity was related to the Si/Al ratio and acid property of zeolite supports. For hydrogenative rearrangement of FOL–to–CPO, pure H–ZSM–5 zeolite could catalyze single–step conversion with relatively low reaction rate, whereas the presence of Pd sites could achieve multi–step transformation with remarkably increased rate, highlighting Pd–zeolite acid sites synergy. Proton and furanylmethoxy–relevant intermediates were captured with spin trapping electron paramagnetic resonance experiments, and 4–hydroxy–2–cyclopentenone and 2–cyclopentenone were also identified as key intermediates in tandem reaction pathway to produce CPO.

This study aims to reveal the mechanism of the interaction between folic acid (FA) and egg ovalbumin (OVA) through the method of multi-spectroscopic, molecular docking, and molecular dynamics simulation in order to probe OVA as the possibility of a carrier of unstable vitamins. The results of the fluorescence spectra indicated a static quenching in the OVA-FA with a strong affinity of 6.998 × 10 4 M −1 . At the same time, the complex formed by FA and OVA has changed the microenvironment. The measurement results of circular dichroism and particle size showed that FA and OVA gradually formed larger particles without changed the secondary structure of the protein. In addition, the results of molecular simulations indicated that the interaction between OVA and FA is mainly stabilized by strong hydrophobic and hydrogen bonds. This research was expanded the application prospect of dietary protein OVA as a transportation and protection system of vitamin substances.

Copper is an essential element to play significant roles in human health associated to the strong redox properties of Cu(I) and Cu(II). The concurrent monitoring of copper species in biological matrixes is highly desired. Herein, a dual-channel fluorescence nanoprobe was designed for the speciation of mono- and divalent copper by conjugating carbon dots (CDs) with Eu-based metal–organic frameworks (Eu-MOFs). The obtained Eu-MOFs@CD nanoprobe exhibits fluorescence at λex/λem = 380/454 nm from CDs and λex/λem = 275/615 nm from Eu-MOFs. Bathocuproine disulfonate (BCS) specifically chelates Cu+ to produce a BCS–Cu+ adduct with absorption at 480 nm, which quenches the fluorescence of CDs at 454 nm due to the inner filter effect. On the other hand, Cu2+ quenches the fluorescence of Eu-MOFs due to the replacement of Eu3+ by Cu2+. Thus, Eu-MOFs@CDs enable extremely fast detection of Cu+ and Cu2+ within 1 min. Furthermore, the nanoprobe is demonstrated by monitoring the variation of Cu+ and Cu2+ in the degradation process of copper nanoparticles and Cu-based MOFs.

The construction of fibrous ionic conductors and sensors with large stretchability, low-temperature tolerance, and environmental stability is highly desired for practical wearable devices yet is challenging. Herein, metallogels (MOGs) with a rapidly reversible force-stimulated sol–gel transition were employed and encapsulated into a hollow thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) microfiber through a simple coaxial spinning. The resultant MOG@TPE coaxial fiber exhibited a high stretchability (>100%) in a broad temperature range (−50 to 50 °C). The MOG@TPE fibrous strain sensor demonstrated a high-yet-linear working curve, fast response time (<100 ms), highly stable conductivity under large deformation, and excellent cycling stability (>3000 cycles). The MOG@TPE fibrous sensors were demonstrated to be directly attached to the human skin to monitor the real-time movements of large/facet joints of the elbow, wrist, finger, and knee. It is believed that the present work for preparing the stretchable ionic conductive fibers holds great promise for applications in fibrous wearable sensors with broad temperature range, large stretchability, stable conductivity, and high wearing comfort.

Metalloporphyrin and gold nanoparticles (AuNPs) were fixed on the surface of hollow zeolite imidazole framework-8 (HZIF-8) by cation exchange and cross-linking reaction. The obtained hybrid nanozyme, Au/ [email protected] (Fe), was fully characterized by TEM, HRTEM, EDS element mapping and XPS. Then, its peroxidase-like activity was explored with Km of 1.74 mM and Vmax of 9.60 × 10 -8 M·S -1 towards H 2 O 2 , indicating excellent catalytic activity. Based on cascade reaction between choline oxidase and Au/ [email protected] (Fe), a quick colorimetric method was established for choline detection in infant formula milk powder. After comprehensive verification, this method presented the merits of simple operation, satisfied detection limit (0.05 mM), wide linear range (0.05–2.0 mM), high accuracy (recovery of 92.2%-105.2%) and nice selectivity. This colorimetric method was applied to the determination of choline in milk powders of five brands. Our study could offer valuable reference for finding highly efficient nanozyme and constructing novel optical biosensors.

To inhibit the agglomeration of nanotitanium dioxide, a poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) composite film doped with folic acid-modified titanium dioxide was synthesized and characterized using X-ray powder diffraction, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis coupled with Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The average grain size of the folic acid-modified titanium dioxide was found to decrease by 1.3 nm, indicating that the cohesiveness of the nanoparticles is decreased. The lowest temperature for 1.0% thermal decomposition of PVC was determined to be 230.0 °C. The decomposition rate at the peak temperature is found to be 39.6% lower than that of a control sample. The stability of the PVC is improved due to a lower number of surface chlorine atoms as well intermolecular attraction. A mechanism for folic acid modification of titanium dioxide-doped PVC is proposed. After doping, the ester groups in the plasticizer show a significant decrease in the vibration peak intensities observed at 1264 cm −1 , 1736 cm −1 and 1106 cm −1 . The doped PVC film suppresses the release of CO 2 , and the strongest vibration peak at 1264 cm −1 is found to be 17.2% lower than that for the blank sample, indicating that doping is beneficial for plasticizer recovery.
