ABSTRACT Hepatocellular lipid accumulation characterizes fatty liver in dairy cows. Lipid droplets (LD), specialized organelles that store lipids and maintain cellular lipid homeostasis, are responsible for the ectopic storage of lipids associated with several metabolic disorders. In recent years, non-ruminant studies have reported that LD-mitochondria interactions play an important role in lipid metabolism. Due to the role of diacylglycerol acyltransferase isoforms (DGAT1 and DGAT2) in LD synthesis, we explored mechanisms of mitochondrial fatty acid transport in ketotic cows using liver biopsies and isolated primary hepatocytes. Compared with healthy cows, cows with fatty liver had massive accumulation of LD and high protein expression of the triglyceride (TAG) synthesis-related enzymes DGAT1 and DGAT2, LD synthesis-related proteins perilipin 2 (PLIN2) and perilipin 5 (PLIN5), and the mitochondrial fragmentation-related proteins dynamin-related protein 1 (DRP1) and fission 1 (FIS1). In contrast, factors associated with fatty acid oxidation, mitochondrial fusion and mitochondrial electron transport chain complex were lower compared with those in the healthy cows. In addition, transmission electron microscopy revealed significant contacts between LD-mitochondria in liver tissue from cows with fatty liver. Compared with isolated cytoplasmic mitochondria, expression of carnitine palmitoyl transferase 1A (CPT1A) and DRP1 was lower, but mitofusin 2 (MFN2) and mitochondrial electron transport chain complex was greater in isolated peridroplet mitochondria from hepatic tissue of cows with fatty liver. In vitro data indicated that exogenous free fatty acids (FFA) induced hepatocyte LD synthesis and mitochondrial dynamics consistent with in vivo results. Furthermore, DGAT2 inhibitor treatment attenuated the FFA-induced upregulation of PLIN2 and PLIN5 and rescued the impairment of mitochondrial dynamics. Inhibition of DGAT2 also restored mitochondrial membrane potential and reduced hepatocyte reactive oxygen species production. The present in vivo and in vitro results indicated there are functional differences among different types of mitochondria in the liver tissue of dairy cows with ketosis. Activity of DGAT2 may play a key role in maintaining liver mitochondrial function and lipid homeostasis in dairy cows during the transition period.

Herein, Mg–Al–Si–Ba–O-based glass ceramics were studied as potential candidates to protect Mn–Co–Ni–O-based negative temperature coefficient (NTC) thermistors at high temperatures such as 900 °C. The ceramics were prepared in three glass formulations (1#: 15MgO–15Al 2 O 3 -44.7SiO 2 –25BaO, 2#: 17MgO–17Al 2 O 3 –41SiO 2 –25BaO and 3#: 17MgO–17Al 2 O 3 –41SiO 2 –20BaO–5Y 2 O 3 (in mol%)) and their glass-transition temperatures ( T g ) were determined using the differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) method. Scanning electronic microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) were used to characterize the parent glasses and glass-ceramic coatings. The sealing effects of the glass ceramics were examined by conducting an insulation test. The glass-ceramic sealing structures were subjected to 1000 thermal shock cycles at temperatures varying from room temperature to 900 °C. Notably, the sealing structure of glass-ceramic coating 1# was compact at a T g of 760.9 °C. The glass-ceramic coatings effectively maintained the NTC properties of the sensitive ceramics in all three formulations. Interestingly, the glass-ceramic coating 3# containing Y 2 O 3 demonstrated an increase in electrical resistance. Both the NTC thermistors coated with 1# and 2# glass formulations successfully passed 1000 thermal shock cycles without visible failures, and their resistance change ratios were well below the requisite 20%.

In this research, solid-liquid equilibrium for the ternary system (2-naphthaldehyde + o -phthalic anhydride + 1,4-dioxane) was measured at 283.15 K, 293.15 K and 303.15 K, respectively. Three isothermal phase diagrams of the system were plotted using the values of the experimental solubility. Pure 2-naphthaldehyde and o -phthalic anhydride were formed at (283.15, 293.15 and 303.15) K, and were determined by Schreinemaker’s wet residue method. The crystallization region of o -phthalic anhydride was found to be much larger than that of 2-naphthaldehyde at a certain temperature. The experimental solubility at multiple temperatures was correlated by the NRTL and Wilson models. The NRTL model was more accurate than the Wilson model in this system. The diagram of density versus component was also constructed.

Oxidative dehydrogenation (ODH) of ethylbenzene is a promising process for styrene production. However, its application is limited by product overoxidation and purification requirements due to the co-feeding of mild oxidants. Herein, we report a facile manganese-based catalyst (K/Mn 3 O 4 -Al 2 O 3 ) and achieve competitive styrene selectivity of 88 % and ethylbenzene conversion of 95 % at 450 ℃ (84 % yield vs. ∼ 60 % yield in commercial dehydrogenation process at 600 ℃) under a cyclic redox ODH scheme. The introduction of Al 2 O 3 into MnO x restructures composite oxides and depresses bulk lattice-oxygen migration for the partial oxidation of ethylbenzene. The surface modification using potassium creates reactive sites and regulates surface properties, achieving ethylbenzene activation and high conversions. Highly active lattice oxygen in catalysts after bulk and surface modifications selectively converts ethylbenzene to styrene and water. This study provides an understanding of roles of manganese-based catalysts in styrene generation and offers a strategy to modulate lattice oxygen on catalysts.

Metal oxide semiconductor photocatalysts have received remarkable consideration as a promising technology for environmental remediation and energy conversion. Oxysulfide semiconductors have narrow band gaps which are appropriate for photocatalytic removal of toxic organic pollutants under visible light illumination. For the elimination purpose of these pollutants, Mo(O,S) 2 , Mn(O,S) 2 , and Mn–Mo(O,S) 2 oxysulfide catalysts containing various Mn contents were synthesized at low temperatures via a simple method. The structural, morphological, electrochemical, compositional, and optical properties of the as-synthesized catalysts were exhaustively characterized. The photocatalytic degradation activity of the bares Mo(O,S) 2 , Mn(O,S) 2 , and other Mn–Mo(O,S) 2 compositions were evaluated over different types of organic pollutants under visible light illumination. The addition of Mn in Mo(O,S) 2 structure improved the photodegradation activity, and Mn–Mo(O,S) 2 -30 was found to be the best composition with superior photodegradation performance towards the four cationic, anionic, and neutral dyes. The degradation efficiency of 10 ppm of MB, and MO dyes reach 99.7 % and 98.6 %, within 30 and 120 min, respectively. Mn–Mo(O,S) 2 -30 catalyst also shows a good photodegradation performance on Rh B and NR organic pollutants. According to the recycling test, the catalyst exhibited excellent performance. The photodegradation follows pseudo-first order kinetics with a rate constant of 0.097 and 0.036 min −1 for MB and MO dyes, respectively. The trapping experiment showed that superoxide anion radicals (O 2 •- ) and holes (h + ) are the responsible active species for the degradation on MO and MB, respectively. The novelty of using Mn–Mo(O,S) 2 -30 for various dyes degradation lies in its remarkable catalytic properties.

Improved capability to inhibit degradation of trianionic curcumin has been realized in this study. The interaction between trianionic curcumin (Cur 3− ) and gemini dodecyl or tetradecyl O -glucoside micelles , tetradecyltrimethylammonium chloride (TTAC) or hexadecyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) micelles as well as gemini alkyl O -glucosides (AGs)/alkyl trimethyl ammonium halides mixed micelles have been characterized. It is demonstrated that Cur 3− cannot be incorporated into gemini AGs micelles since the lack of electrostatic attraction and degraded as rapidly as in aqueous phase. Cur 3− tend to reside at palisade layer − water interface of TTAC or CTAB micelles due to the strong electrostatic interaction while moderate electrostatic interaction allows Cur 3− to locate more deeply in the palisade layer of mixed micelles. Additionally, mixed micelles tend to form a more compact and hydrophobic palisade layer than pure TTAC and CTAB ones. These factors bring about enhanced fluorescence intensity and blue − shift of emission maxima, improved fluorescence anisotropy and quantum yield, as well as reduced decay rate of Cur 3− in mixed micelles than in pure TTAC and CTAB ones.

The first borate featuring a three-dimensional B–O anionic network with edge-sharing (ES) [BO4] units, Pb2.28Ba1.72B10O19 (PbBaBO), has been synthesized under ambient pressure. The squeezing effect of the 2∞[B10O19] bilayer structure on the intra-layer co-edge [BO4] leads to an extremely long B–B distance and quite small internal O–B–O angles in the [B2O6] ring.

Er doping in Al 2 O 3 creates (Er–)O sites that promote hydrogen spillover. • The dual-site catalyst breaks the activity–stability trade-off in MCH dehydrogenation. • Er doping weakens Pt H adsorption and lowers the kinetic barrier of the rate-determining step. • The strategy extends to La and Y dopants, offering a general platform for advanced LOHC catalysts. The development of highly efficient and stable catalysts is essential for advancing methylcyclohexane (MCH)-based liquid organic hydrogen carrier (LOHC) technology, yet the performance of alumina-supported Pt-based catalysts for MCH dehydrogenation is often constrained by an inherent activity-stability trade-off. Here, we demonstrate that this limitation can be overcome by constructing a synergistic dual-site configuration comprising Pt nanoparticles and atomically dispersed (Er-)O sites. Supported on Er-doped Al 2 O 3 , uniformly sized Pt nanoparticles exhibit an exceptionally high hydrogen production rate of 2966 mmol∙g Pt −1 ∙min −1 at 300 °C (Pt/5Er-Al), outperforming most alumina-supported Pt catalysts. Remarkably, this catalyst shows excellent long-term stability, maintaining a hydrogen purity exceeding 99.9% even under high temperature and high space velocity conditions. Combined structural characterizations, kinetic studies, in situ H D exchange DRIFTS, and density functional theory calculations reveal that the doping upshifts the Pt d-band center and reduced Pt electron density, weakening H adsorption and promoting H spillover to adjacent (Er-)O sites. This synergy maintains low hydrogen coverage on Pt, lowering the kinetic barrier of the rate-determining step and accelerating H 2 evolution. The hydrogen spillover strategy mediated by atoms doped in alumina demonstrated herein opens a new avenue for designing advanced alumina-based dehydrogenation/hydrogenation catalysts. The incorporation of Er into Pt/Al 2 O 3 catalyst enhances hydrogen spillover, thereby significantly promoting the dehydrogenation activity and stability for MCH conversion.

High energy density, intrinsic safety, and eco-friendliness of aqueous zinc‑iodine (Zn I 2 ) batteries are hindered by the shuttle effect and sluggish iodine redox kinetics. These limitations result in the formation of highly soluble triiodide ( I 3 − ) intermediates, which adversely affect energy density and cycle life. To address these issues, we designed N, O co-doped porous carbon with interconnected microchannels (N/O-PC) to create abundant catalytic sites and a locally strong adsorption microenvironment for the iodine reduction reaction (IRR). The unique structure of N/O-PC facilitates electrolyte penetration and enhances iodine fixation and loading, effectively inhibiting the formation and shuttling of I 3 − . Leveraging this favorable microenvironment, the battery exhibits exceptional cycling stability with a high capacitance retention rate after 65,000 cycles at 10 A g −1 . In situ characterization and theoretical calculations confirm that N/O dopants serve as active centers promoting the chemical immobilization and catalytic conversion of polyiodides. This work integrates physical adsorption and catalytic conversion to construct a host material, offering a novel strategy for developing a powerful Zn I 2 batteries.

In the field of heterogeneous catalysis, it still remains a challenge in controlled preparation of micro-nanostructured composite oxide catalysts. In this regard, a series of urchin-like V–Ti–O micro-nanostructures with varying Ti/V molar ratios are successfully synthesized by the reaction between tetrabutyl titanate (TBOT) and vanadyl oxalate via a facile one-step solvothermal process and subsequent calcination. The influences of reaction conditions, such as the ratio of reactant, the acidity of reaction system, and the use of glycol on the morphologies and oxidation state of vanadium are investigated. The results show that urchin-like hierarchical micro-nanostructures are formed, on which a large number of one-dimensional nanobelts radially grow from the center. Vanadium oxide species are highly dispersed on the external surface of the anatase TiO 2 structure. The obtained V–Ti–O catalysts are tested for the ammoxidation of mono- and dichlorotoluenes in gas-phase with molecular oxygen and exhibit high catalytic activity in converting chlorotoluenes to corresponding nitriles.

Lithium-rich manganese-based cathode materials, represented as xLi 2 MnO 3 ·(1-x)LiMO 2 (M = Ni, Co, or Mn), exhibit high specific capacity and low cost, making them promising candidates for next-generation high-energy-density lithium-ion battery cathodes. However, the low covalency of the Li–O–Li configuration renders these cathode materials highly susceptible to irreversible oxygen release and structural evolution, leading to severe voltage and capacity degradation, which hinders their practical application. To address this issue, this study employs a Ba/Ti co-doping strategy to modulate the oxygen electron and reinforce the structure of lithium-rich manganese-based cathode materials. Post-cycling results indicate that Ti/Ba co-doping effectively suppresses electrolyte corrosion and surface/interface reactions, improves the reversibility of O-redox during cycling, and enhances the structural stability of both the bulk and surface of the materials. As a result, the Ba/Ti co-doped sample exhibits an excellent capacity retention of 95.2 % after 300 cycles.

With increasing wastewater treatment demands and decarbonization goals, synergistic reduction in pollutants and green house gas (GHG) emissions is crucial. High process emissions like N2O pose significant challenges, yet optimized carbon reduction strategies for conventional plants are lacking. This study developed three mathematical models to quantify the impact of dissolved oxygen (DO), influent salinity, and C/N ratio on direct emissions (CH4, N2O) and indirect emissions. Response Surface Methodology (RSM) optimized these factors to minimize GHG emissions under three accounting scenarios: (1) plants with CH4reuse systems: salinity = 0.5 g L−1, DO = 3.67 mg L−1, C/N = 12.75; (2) plants focusing solely on direct emissions: salinity = 0.5 g L−1, DO = 3.35 mg L−1, C/N = 3; and (3) plants assessing total emissions: salinity = 0.5 g L−1, DO = 2.5 mg L−1, C/N = 7.18. Key findings indicated that increasing salinity exacerbated greenhouse gas emissions. Elevated DO levels in the aerobic stage reduced N2O emissions but increased indirect emissions in the A2/O process. Higher C/N ratios promoted anaerobic CH4production, but sufficient carbon reduced N2O by enabling complete heterotrophic denitrification. A 60−day continuous GHG emissions monitoring campaign was conducted at a WWTP to validate the actual emission reductions achievable under the identified optimal control conditions. An analysis and comparison of operational and economic costs were also performed. The findings provide practical insights into sustainable GHG emission management and offer potential solutions to advance the synergistic reduction in GHG emissions and pollutants.
