In this work, two high selective and sensitive fluorescent probes for ClO − , 7-Hydroxycoumarin and 4-Hydroxycoumarin were designed. The reaction mechanism that we speculated was the oxidized ring opening reaction and hydrolysis. The detection could be realized in quasi-aqueous phase and the detection limits of probe [7] and probe [4] for ClO − were found to be 56.8 nM and 70.5 nM. Furthermore, the probes can be used to cell imagings.

Rapid and accurate quantification of residual guar gum in bauxite slurry flocculation is a critical bottleneck for closed-loop control of flocculant dosage. In this study, we systematically compared the anti-interference performance of the two UV-Vis spectrophotometer approaches, the single-wavelength absorbance method (A263) and the peak-trough difference method (ΔA), in complex slurry matrices. Our results revealed that the two methods respond differently to pH and salt concentration variations, leading to the proposal of a dual-mode synergistic detection strategy. The A263method provides quantification under the specific conditions tested within the ranges of pH 3.0–8.0 and CaCl2concentration below 4.5 mmol/L. Beyond these boundaries, deviations from the Beer-Lambert law occurred, attributable to conformational transitions or salting-out aggregation of the polymer chains. In contrast, the ΔA method partially mitigated background drift through differential calculation and exhibited a more stable signal trend than A263across the tested ranges (pH 2.0–11.0, CaCl20–18 mmol/L), suggesting its potential utility as a semi-quantitative indicator in challenging matrices. However, its quantitative precision was constrained by small absolute signal values and systematic dependence on pH and salt conditions. Based on these findings, we propose a synergistic strategy-preferring the A263method under routine conditions while recommending the ΔA method for high-salinity or wide-pH scenarios- and accordingly define the preliminary applicability boundaries based on signal response observations at a single concentration. Flocculation–sedimentation tests confirmed that the method successfully determined the optimum dosage (5.0 g/kg dry slurry), at which the residual concentration in the supernatant correlated negatively with the sedimentation rate (R2> 0.95). The supernatant matrix after sedimentation (pH ≈ 7.1, low ionic strength) fell exactly within the safe window. This work provides a methodological reference for spectrophotometric quantification of trace organics in turbid, saline, and pH-variable slurry systems, and lays an analytical foundation for intelligent dosage control in bauxite slurry dewatering.

The simultaneous detection of K + and Tl + can serve as a toxicological diagnostic tool for thallium poisoning. Colorimetric-reaction-based nanoprobes have emerged as promising sensors for the rapid and ultrasensitive detection of molecular species in simple systems. However, the development of viable screening tools for multicomponent analysis in complex systems remains challenging owing to interference from coexisting materials in the media. Herein, a simple chemical sensor array based on the peroxidase-like activity of gold nanoparticles modified with single-stranded DNA (AuNPs-ssDNA) and chemometrics was developed for the simultaneous detection of K + and Tl + in aqueous solutions and serum. The use of a K + adapter conferred high selectivity to the developed method. Optimized AuNPs-ssDNAs were used to construct a sensor array, which together with chemometrics provided fingerprints that can facilitate the simultaneous analysis of multiple components. The developed colorimetric reaction in combination with the chemometrics assay was directly used as a biosensor array, which exhibited detection limits of 107.33 nM for K + and 19.26 nM for Tl + . The developed method could potentially serve as a diagnostic technique for investigating thallium poisoning and toxicology.

Biological thiols with similar structures, such as glutathione (GSH), N-acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC), homocysteine (Hcy) and cysteine (Cys), play important roles in human physiology and are associated with different diseases. Thus, the discrimination of these thiols is a great necessity for various biochemical investigations and the diagnosis of related diseases. Herein, we present a new dual-signaling probe consisting of a typical aggregation induced emission fluorogen of a tetraphenylethylene group and 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfonyl moiety. The probe can be used to selectively and quantitatively detect Cys over a variety of bio-species, including GSH, NAC and Hcy, from both UV/vis absorption and fluorescence channels. The mechanism study showed that the fluorescence and UV/vis absorption were turned on as the probe undergoes displacement of the 2,4-dinitrobenzenesulfonyl group with Cys, where the UV/vis and fluorescence signals originate from the dinitrophenyl-containing compounds and aggregates of TPE-OH, respectively. In addition, the discrimination of Cys was achieved by more rapid intramolecular displacement of sulfur with the amino group of Cys than NAC, Hcy and GSH. Moreover, the probe shows ignorable cytotoxicity against HepG2 cells, which demonstrates the great potential of the probe in selectively detecting Cys in vivo.

In this paper, a series of high performance near-infrared reflective pigments based on Bi 3 YO 6 doped with Fe 2 O 3 and Tb 4 O 7 were prepared by high-temperature calcination method. The pigments were characterized by some analytic techniques, such as XRD , Particle size analyzer, SEM, EDS , UV–vis–NIR spectrophotometer, CIE L*a*b* (1976) color space and infrared thermal imaging. Experimental results showed that the Fe 2 O 3 doping in Bi 3 YO 6 could change the color from bright yellow to ochre red. The substitution of Tb (IV)-doped pigments changed the color to dark orange. The doping of Fe (III) and Tb (IV) contributed to enriching the color diversities of pigments. Among the synthesized pigments, Bi 3-x Fe x YO 6 and Bi 3 Y 1-x Tb x O 6+δ displayed a disordered defective fluorite-type structure. The effect of doping Fe (III) and Tb (IV) reduced the near-infrared reflectance of the pigment. Excepting for Bi 3-x Fe x YO 6 (x = 0.8), the near infrared reflectance of some other pigments were higher than the China National standard (CNs). Chemical resistance tests showed that the pigments had excellent acid and alkali resistance. Finally, the application practical of traditional iron oxide yellow pigment and three prepared pigments, i.e., Bi 3 YO 6 , Bi 3-x Fe x YO 6 (x = 0.4) and Bi 3 Y 1-x Tb x O 6+δ (x = 0.05) were studied and compared by infrared thermal imaging. The test results showed that Bi 3 YO 6 still had a strong near-infrared reflection effect after being painted. Compared with traditional iron yellow pigment, Bi 3 YO 6 could reduce the surface temperature of galvanized sheet by 20 °C under the illumination of infrared light. The series of Fe (III) and Tb (IV) doped pigments prepared in this paper have revealed some promising application values.

Four polysaccharide fractions, LRP-1, LRP-2, LRP-3 and LRP-4 were extracted stepwise from Lignosus rhinocerotis sclerotia with distilled water at 25, 95, 120 °C and 1.0 M NaOH solution at 4 °C. Their structure, molecular size and chain conformation were clarified using SEC-MALLS-RI, GC, FT-IR and UV–vis. Furthermore, their immunomodulatory activities were evaluated by the model of cyclophosphamide (Cy)-induced immunosuppression. The LRP-1 and LRP-2 were polysaccharide-protein complexes (46–68% β- d -glucan and 27–48% protein), while LRP-3 and LRP-4 were absolutely composed of β- d -glucose. The LRP-4 with low polydispersity had much higher molecular weight ( M w , 5.86 × 10 6 g/mol) and intrinsic viscosity ([ η ], 202.6 ml/g) than other LRP fractions. Based on M w , radius of gyration ( z 1/2 ) and [ η ] data with the exponent β of z 1/2 –M w and its U-shaped curve, all four LRP fractions were highly branched macromolecules and LRP-3 showed a more compact sphere-like conformation than LRP-2 in aqueous solution. Additionally, all four LRP fractions exhibited protective effects against Cy-induced immunosuppression in mice by improving immune organs as well as stimulating the release of major cytokines TNF-α and INF-γ. This work provides a theoretical basis for the application of polysaccharides and their protein complexes from Lignosus rhinocerotis sclerotia in food- or drug-based therapies.

The recovery of Nd(III) from NdFeB permanent magnets is gaining increasing attention. In the rare earth elements separation industry, wastewater produced through saponification has become a serious environmental problem. In this work, a novel non-saponification P350-N235 synergistic extraction system was established for the extraction of Nd(III) from nitric acid medium. Almost 100% of Nd(III) was extracted by using a P350-N235 system when the molar fraction (X) of P350 was 0.3. And the synergistic enhancement factor R max reached 60.03. Firstly, the effects of time, pH, volume ratio and other variables were investigated to determine the extraction behaviors. Response surface methodology (RSM) was used to optimize the extraction conditions. The mechanism of synergistic extraction was investigated by FT-IR, UV–vis, NMR methods and ESP maps, indicating that the composition of the extracted complex was Nd(NO 3 ) 3 ·(P350) 2.5 (N235) 2.5 . Then, the extraction thermodynamics and kinetics were also thoroughly investigated, the extraction process is demonstrated to be a spontaneously exothermic reaction. In the NdFeB leaching solution, the synergistic system showed excellent separation factor (β) for Nd/Sm (1.43), Nd/Gd (7.33), and Nd/Dy (9.81). Finally, after 5 cycles, the P350-N235 synergistic system maintained high extraction efficiency. In conclusion, this study overcame the saponification problem in traditional extraction techniques and proposed an environmentally friendly green extraction system.

Combining upconversion materials with narrow-wide bandgap semiconductors to construct heterostructured composite photocatalysts effectively improves solar energy conversion efficiency. NYF:Ln 3+ (Ln = Yb,Er,Tm)@BiOX(X = Cl,Br,I) heterostructures were prepared by a two-step hydrothermal method. This work explores the effects of different lanthanide ion doping and narrow-wide bandgap bismuth oxyhalides on the performance of the heterostructures system. Under near-infrared (NIR) light irradiation, NYF:Yb,Er,Tm@BiOI degraded 94 % BPA within 160 min. Significantly, compared with NYF:Yb,Er@BiOCl, NYF:Yb,Er@BiOBr and the NYF:Yb,Er,Tm/BiOI mechanical mixtures, the photocatalytic activity of NYF:Yb,Er,Tm@BiOI was increased by 9.4 times, 3.7 times and 1.8 times, respectively. The enhanced photocatalytic activity is attributed to the doping of Er-Tm double-activated ions, which provides multiple upconversion emissions and forms more overlap in the narrow bandgap BiOI absorption spectrum, making it advantageous to utilize upconversion light fully. Eventually, an underlying mechanism was proposed that the existence of FRET in the NYF:Yb,Er,Tm@BiOI heterostructure leads to enhanced photocatalytic activity. This work provides new insights into the design of advanced structures for NIR-responsive photocatalysts.

Broad spectrum response photocatalyst is crucial for making full use of sunlight and widely used in efficient photocatalytic degradation of organic dyes. In this work, upconversion luminescence boosted broadband photocatalysts based on BiF 3 :Yb 3+ , Er 3+ nanoparticles (BFY) and the carbon nitride doped with various masses of barbituric acid (CNB x ) semiconductor materials (BFY/CNB x ) were successfully designed and produced for photocatalysis in UV–Vis–NIR region. Compared with pure g-C 3 N 4 , BFY/CNB 0.5 composites have better photocatalytic performance attributed to the utilization of broadband spectrum energy and effective charge separation. After 30 min illumination by visible light , photodegradation efficiency of RhB reaches about 99.4% by using BFY-2/CNB 0.5 . A plot of C/C 0 versus time indicates that the BFY-2/CNB 0.5 can degrade about 64.7% of RhB in 80 min by NIR irradiation. Under simulated solar light, the sample of BFY-2/CNB 0.5 reaches a maximum degradation efficiency of 98.0% within 15 min. The strengthened photocatalytic activity is due to the synergistic effect of CNB 0.5 and upconversion materials. The active species utilized in the degradation process were examined using capture experiments. After four continuous photocatalytic cycles, about 94.0% of RhB solution is degraded. The photocatalytic mechanism of the composite photocatalysts is also analyzed in detail. The results indicate that the prepared BFY/CNB 0.5 photocatalysts have good prospects in the field of environmental remediation.

Configuring reactive and stable catalytic interfaces is crucial to design efficient photocatalysts for Cr(VI) reduction. Herein, via the platinum decoration approach based on interfacial engineering , we developed an effective catalytic interface within novel semiconducting chalcopyrite quantum dots (Pt/CuFeS 2 QDs). Benefiting from the catalytic merits of the Pt modulated interfacial structure and electronic structure, Pt/CuFeS 2 QDs show a broader light absorption capability extending to near-infrared radiation (NIR) range with superior carriers separation performance and faster charge transfer efficiency, which delivers a three-folder faster photocatalytic Cr(VI) reduction efficiency comparing to the original CuFeS 2 QDs. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations unravel that Pt atoms prefer to be anchored with the surface S atoms to form a stable interfacial structure with faster electron transfer and Cr(VI) reduction dynamics. This work demonstrates that platinum decoration based on interfacial engineering is an effective strategy to simultaneously modulate the band structure and accelerate the interfacial reaction dynamics for semiconductor photocatalysts, which paves the way for designing highly efficient photocatalysts for light-driven environmental and energy engineering applications.

To fully utilize the solar light, photocatalyst with broad spectrum response from UV to near-infrared (NIR) is desirable. In this work, ternary mixed valent Bi 2 O 4 -Bi 4 O 7 -BiO 2-x with rich oxygen vacancy has been synthesized through one-pot hydrothermal treatment of NaBiO 3 . The results showed that through adjusting the hydrothermal conditions, oxygen vacancy-rich Bi 2 O 4 -Bi 4 O 7 -BiO 2-x nanocomposites with much higher efficiency than single or mixed bismuth oxides (Bi 2 O 4 , Bi 4 O 7 , BiO 2-x and Bi 4 O 7 -BiO 2-x ,) can be synthesized for photocatalytic degradation of bisphenol A (BPA) under UV, visible, and NIR light irradiation. In addition, the liquid chromatography-mass spectrometer (LC–MS) characterization demonstrated that BPA was oxidized to 4-isopropenyphenol first and the rings were opened sequentially under NIR light irradiation. Further detection of reactive species indicated that holes, O 2 − , and OH were the main oxidizing species in the degradation system. The experimental observations and density functional theory (DFT) calculations suggested that both type-II and the Z-scheme charge transfer with oxygen vacancies as electrons and holes mediators were formed at the interfaces of Bi 2 O 4 , Bi 4 O 7 , and BiO 2-x , resulting in a very efficient separation of photogenerated charge carriers in the composite. This work adds to the growing potential of mixed valent bismuth oxides based photocatalysts and is expected to accelerate the pace of the development of new-generation photocatalysts with high efficiency utilizing full-spectrum solar light.

In order to produce hydrogen fuel in green and environmentally friendly method, a series of novel metal-5,10,15,20- meso -tetra(p-hydroxypheny) porphyrin (MTHPP, M = Cu, Zn and Ni) mono-dispersedly functionalized MTHPP-sg-PSf/TiO 2 mixed matrix membranes (MP 12 -M 3 MMMs) were prepared via the in-situ surface grafting. UV–Vis induced hydrogen evolution from water shows an increasing order of NiP 12 -M 3 < P 12 -M 3 < ZnP 12 -M 3 < CuP 12 -M 3 , and the hydrogen production by CuP 12 -M 3 was up to 70.63 mmol/m 2 , which is 7.25 times higher than that of control membrane without metal ion (P 12 -M 3 ). The apparent quantum yield (AQY) at λ = 420 nm of CuP 12 -M 3 was 31.7 %, which are better than most reported photocatalysts. Furthermore, the hydrogen evolution performance of the MP 12 -M 3 MMMs are higher than that of equivalent MTHPP-TiO 2 powder, indicating that the porous membrane can immobilize porphyrin and TiO 2 monodispersely to improve its catalytic performance significantly. Finally, the photocatalytic mechanism of the MP 12 -M 3 MMMs was explored by electrons transfer rate constant (k ET ), excited state oxidation potential (E OX(dye*) ), electron spin resonance (ESR) and density functional theory (DFT). This work details the construction a photocatalytic membrane by novel surface modification method, which can be used for long-term photolysis of water to produce hydrogen and provide an effective strategy for improving hydrogen production performance.
