Dehydrocorydaline (DHC), one of the main active components of Corydalis yanhusuo, is an important remedy for the treatment of coronary heart disease. Our previous study revealed a higher unbound concentration of DHC in the heart than plasma of mice after oral administration of C. yanhusuo extract or DHC, but the underlying uptake mechanism remains unelucidated. In our investigations, we studied the transport mechanism of DHC in transgenic cells, primary neonatal rat cardiomyocytes, and animal experiments. Using quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction and Western blotting, we found that uptake transporters expressed in the mouse heart include organic cation transporter 1/3 (OCT1/3) and carnitine/organic cation transporter 1/2 (OCTN1/2). The accumulation experiments in transfected cells showed that DHC was a substrate of OCT1 and OCT3, with Km of 11.29 ± 3.3 and 8.96 ± 3.7 μM, respectively, but not a substrate of OCTN1/2. Additionally, a higher efflux level (1.71-fold of MDCK-mock) of DHC was observed in MDCK-MDR1 cells than in MDCK-mock cells. Therefore, DHC is a weak substrate for MDR1. Studies using primary neonatal rat cardiomyocytes showed that OCT1/3 inhibitors (quinidine, decynium-22, and levo-tetrahydropalmatine) prevented the accumulation of DHC, whereas OCTN2 inhibitors (mildronate and l-carnitine) did not affect its accumulation. Moreover, the coadministration of OCT1/3 inhibitors (levo-tetrahydropalmatine, THP) decreased the concentration of DHC in the mouse heart. Based on these findings, DHC may be accumulated partly by OCT1/3 transporters and excreted by MDR1 in the heart. THP could alter the distribution of DHC in the mouse heart.

Pyranoanthocyanins are the important color and functional compounds in red wine. Six common kinds of pyranoanthocyanins were synthesized through the reaction of malvidin-3-O-glucoside (Mv-3-gluc) with acetone, pyruvic acid, p-cumaric acid, caffeic acid, ferulic acid, and sinapid acid, respectively, and their pH (1.0–11.0), SO2 (0–250 ppm), and thermo (50–98 °C) stabilities and antioxidant activities were comparatively studied. Results showed that the six pyranoanthocyanins all exhibited higher pH and SO2 color stability than Mv-3-gluc, especially vitisin-A with a carboxy group on the D ring. The six pyranoanthocyanins also showed much more thermostability than Mv-3-gluc, especially methylpyranomv-3-gluc. The degradation kinetics of Mv-3-gluc and its derivatives all fitted to a first-order reaction. Moreover, pinotin-A with the o-dihydroxyl group on the E ring presented the strongest antioxidant capability, as evaluated by 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH), 2,2′-azinobis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid (ABTS), and ferric ion reducing power (FRAP) assays. Additionally, the increase in the number of rings is beneficial to the improvement of the DPPH radical scavenging ability of anthocyanins.

The combination of nanomaterials and DNA has captured extensive attention in the fields of sensor, catalysis, biomedicine and material science. The applications of DNA functionalized MoS 2 nanosheets (NSs) in biosensor and biomedicine in turn present an fascinating topic about biointerface science between DNA and MoS 2 NSs. The surface interaction between DNA and MoS 2 NSs was explored by adsorption and desorption experiments. The results indicated that van der waals force played an crucial role in DNA adsorption by MoS 2 NSs. Additionally, it was proved that the quenching of dye labelled DNA probe by MoS 2 NSs was attributed to fluorescence resonance energy transfer. Based on the extraordinarily high quenching efficiency of MoS 2 NSs and different adsorption affinity of MoS 2 NSs toward aptamer and aptamer-targeted protein, an aptameric biosensor was fabricated to detect carbohydrate antigen 15–3. The fabricated biosensor not only displayed high sensitivity with the detection limit of 0.0039 U/mL (S/N = 3), but also exhibited good stability and selectivity. The proposed sensing platform provided an easy-constructed and cost-effective protocol to detect other aptamer targeted biomolecules. The fundamental study of biointerface science on DNA and MoS 2 NSs will facilitate their potential applications in various fields.

Gas flotation is one of the important technologies for oily wastewater treatment and the surface-active polymer is an important kind of developing flotation agents. In this article, the flotation performance, polymerization kinetics, and copolymerization behavior of surface-active copolymer of N -[3-(dimethylamino) propyl] methacrylamide (DMAPMA) and dodecyl dimethyl propenyl ammonium chloride (C 12 DM) and copolymer of DMAPMA and decyl dimethyl vinylbenzyl ammonium chloride(C 10 MVBA) were investigated. The flotation experiment showed that both copolymers had an oil removal of 97% at the concentration of 30 mg/L. The result of polymerization kinetics showed that the polymerization initiation rate was influenced by the monomer concentration and the polymerization termination was dominated by bimolecular termination and accompanied by unimolecular termination. The activation energy of DMAPMA-C 12 DM copolymerization (89.64 kJ/mol) was smaller than that of DMAPMA-C 10 MVBA (91.65 kJ/mol) copolymerization. The reactivity ratios of DMAPMA and C 12 DM were 0.46 and 15.52, respectively, as well as the reactivity ratios of DMAPMA and C 10 MVBA were 1.19 and 35.77, respectively. These results are meaningful for the oily wastewater flotation and the copolymerization mechanism of DMAPMA-based copolymer.

A novel ZIF-8-CMC hybrid material was fabricated from the hybridization of ZIF-8 and carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) by impregnation method for n -hexane/3-methylpentane separation. The surface properties of ZIF-8 were tailored by introducing CMC into ZIF-8 nanoparticles . In this work, adsorption separation of n -hexane ( n HEX) and 3-methylpentane (3MP) on ZIF-8-CMC were investigated by batch vapor-phase adsorption and liquid-phase breakthrough adsorption. The adsorption selectivity of n HEX/3MP reversed from preferable adsorption of n HEX to preferable adsorption of 3MP upon the increasing of CMC containing in the hybrid materials. As the temperature increases, the adsorption amounts of n HEX and 3MP decrease. With the increasing of CMC contents, the n HEX uptake decreased, the uptake capacity of 3MP increased gradually. For liquid-phase breakthrough adsorption, the dynamic adsorption capacity of n HEX also decreased with the increasing of temperature.

Halogenated dipeptides, 3, 5-di-I-tyrosylalanine (DIYA), have been identified as novel disinfection byproducts (DBPs), following chloramination of authentic water. However, little is known about their toxicity. Zebrafish embryos were used to assess the toxicity of novel iodinated DBPs (I-DBPs). Although DIYA did not exhibit high acute toxicity to embryonic zebrafish (LC 50 > 2 mM), it significantly inhibited pigmentation of melanophores and xanthophores on head, trunk and tail at 500 μM as determined by photographic analysis. Whereas N-phenylthiourea (PTU) as a pigment inhibitor did not inhibit development of yellow pigments. Colorimetric detection of melanin further confirmed these results. Quantitative real time polymerase chain reaction (qRT-PCR) measurements indicated that genes ( dct , slc24a5 , tyr , tyrp1a , tyrp1b , silva ) associated with the melanogenesis pathway were dramatically down-regulated following exposure to 500 μM DIYA. In addition, enzymatic activity of tyrosinase (TYR) decreased, also demonstrating that the underlying mechanism of hypopigmentation was attributed to the disruption of melanogenesis pathway. Transcription levels of xanthophore genes ( gch2 , bnc2 , csf1a , csf1b , pax7a and pax7b ) were also monitored by qRT-PCR assay. DIYA exposure up-regulated expression of gch2 and bnc2 , but not csf1 and pax7 . Tested DIYA analogues, brominated tyrosine was unlikely to inhibit pigmentation, indicating that the iodine substitution and dipeptides structure are of important structural feature for the inhibition of pigmentation. In this study, we observed that DIYA inhibited melanogenesis related genes, which might contribute to pigmentation defects. Moreover, as an emerging I-DBPs, the developmental toxicity of aromatic dipeptides should be further studied.

As a foodborne bacterium, Listeria monocytogenes (LM) can cause serious diseases and even death to weak people. 3-Hydroxy-2-butanone (3H-2B) has been proven to be a biomarker for exhalation of LM. Detection of 3H-2B is a fast and effective method for determining whether the food is infected. Herein, we present an excellent 3H-2B gas sensor based on bimetallic PtCu nanocrystal modified WO3 hollow spheres. The structure and morphology of the PtCu/WO3 were characterized, and their gas sensitivities were measured by a static testing method. The results showed that the sensor response of WO3 hollow spheres was enhanced by about 15 times after modification with bimetallic PtCu nanocrystal. The maximum response value of the PtCu/WO3 sensor to 10 ppm 3H-2B is as high as 221.2 at 110 °C. In addition, the PtCu/WO3 sensor also exhibited good selectivity to 3H-2B, fast response/recovery time (9 s/28 s), and low limit of detection (LOD < 0.5 ppm). Furthermore, the sensitivity mechanism was studied by monitoring the reaction products by gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. The excellent gas-sensing performance can be attributed to the synergy between PtCu and WO3, including the unique spillover effect of O2 on PtCu nanoparticles, the regulated depletion layer by p-type CuxO to n-type WO3, and their selective catalysis to 3H-2B. Hence, this work offers the rational design and synthesis of highly efficient sensitive materials for the detection of LM for food security.

For separating 1, 3-butadiene (BD) from BD/N 2 mixture, among numerous studied metal–organic frameworks-based adsorbents, Ni-ZIF-8 was comparatively selected here based on intelligent gravimetric analysis, simulation studies, facile synthesis, and very good IAST selectivity. Experimental results showed good butadiene uptake capacity of Ni-ZIF-8 of 7.41 mol/kg, which is 42% higher than pure ZIF-8. Additionally, Ni-ZIF-8 exhibits IAST selectivities of 2826 and 3302 at 0.1 bar, at 25 and 45 °C respectively, for 20% BD/N 2 adsorption. The molecular simulation results showed that Ni-ZIF-8 has binding energies of 65.25, 9.54 kJ/mol, while ZIF-8 has 56.07, 15.03 kJ/mol for butadiene, and nitrogen, respectively. This strongly supported the experimental results. To the best of our knowledge, Ni-ZIF-8 showed the best working capacity of 5.91 mol/kg for butadiene among all the reported adsorbents. Moreover, dynamic adsorption experiments revealed that butadiene could be recovered from BD/N 2 mixtures at room temperature, suggesting great potential for industrial BD/N 2 separation.

Well-defined triblock copolymers poly( N -isopropylacrylamide)-b-poly(3-methacryloxypropyltrimethoxysilane)-b-poly( N -isopropylacrylamide) (PNIPAM-b-PMEMO-b-PNIPAM) with varying block ratios were successfully synthesized via reversible addition–fragmentation chain transfer polymerization. The amphiphilic triblock copolymers showed surfactant-like behavior in aqueous solution and could easily self-assemble into dendritic micelles with hydrophobic PMEMO as the core and hydrophilic PNIPAM as the shell when the copolymer concentration exceeded the critical micelle concentration (CMC). Transmittance measurements showed the triblock copolymers were thermosensitive, and it was worth noting that the lower critical solution temperature (LCST) values of copolymers exceeded pure PNIPAM to about 35.3 °C, which was very close to physiological temperature of human body. This was attributed to the effect of Si–O–CH 3 hydrolysis in polymers. The effect of a series of inorganic salts on thermosensitivity of PNIPAM-b-PMEMO-b-PNIPAM was investigated, and our results suggested that the block copolymers maintained good thermosensitivity in all salt solutions. The LCST did not change significantly in different concentrations of NaCl, CaCl 2 and MgCl 2 solutions, which proved the polymer had good salt resistance. Dynamic light scattering experiments showed that the micelles were well dispersed at about 120 nm below LCST with a small polydispersity index. In addition, the drug-loading experiments of micelles showed high drug encapsulation efficiency indicating their potential as drug carriers.

Scramjet engines play a vital role in hypersonic vehicles , but they suffer from the ignition issue due to the low reactivity of hydrocarbon fuel when flying at low flight Mach numbers . In this work, the low-temperature ignition performance of multi-component kerosene was significantly improved by only adding 3% borane-dimethyl sulfide (BDMS), resulting in the low-temperature ignition reducing greatly from 620 to 160 °C. This indicates that BDMS was an effective activator for multi-component kerosene. To analyze the low-temperature efficient activation mechanism of multi-component kerosene, paraxylene, ethylcyclohexane, n -decane, and n -tetradecane (each with added 3% BDMS) were studied as they are essential components in kerosene, respectively. The low-temperature ignition performance and the ignition process of n-alkane were significantly improved and changed for a single component of hydrocarbon. There was a synergistic promotion effect for multi-component hydrocarbons with the addition of activator BDMS. BDMS could significantly improve the low-temperature ignition performance and oxidation of ethylcychohexane in the presence of n -tetradecane. The addition of paraxylene promoted the evaporation of the hybrid fuel of n -tetradecane/ethylcyclohexane. The results obtained from this study could help to gain a better understanding of the low-temperature ignition of multi-component kerosene and provide an effective method to solve the scramjet ignition problem at low flight Mach numbers.

n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (PUFA)-rich lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) with many beneficial effects was effectively synthesized by immobilized MAS1 lipase-catalyzed esterification of n-3 PUFA with sn-glycero-3-phosphatidylcholine (GPC) under vacuum in a solvent-free system. Immobilized MAS1 lipase was found to be a more suitable catalyst for the production of n-3 PUFA-rich LPC when compared with Novozym 435. The maximal GPC conversion and LPC content (93.12% and 90.77 mol %) were obtained under the optimized conditions (enzyme loading of 300 U/g substrate, temperature of 55 °C, and n-3 PUFA/GPC molar ratio of 20:1). Moreover, it was observed that 1-acyl-sn-glycero-3-lysophosphatidylcholine (sn-1 acyl LPC) was the main reaction product, as demonstrated by molecular docking. These results showed that immobilized MAS1 lipase had high phospholipase activity with a predominant specificity for the sn-1 hydroxyl position of GPC to efficiently synthesize highly pure n-3 PUFA-rich LPC from GPC for industrial application.

A series of poly(benzimidazole-imide)s (PBIPIs) derived from different dianhydrides and 2-(3-aminophenyl)-5-aminobenzimidazole ( m -BIA) were synthesized via thermal imidization to form flexible films. This series of PBIPIs showed great T g s ranging from 296 to 484 °C, excellent thermal stability performed in 5% weight loss temperatures ( T d5% s) of 502–529 °C in N 2 and good mechanical properties (tensile strengths of 89–127 MPa, tensile moduli of 2.9–4.1 GPa and elongations at break of 3.9–6.9%). Compared with PIs derived from 6-amino-2-(4-(4-aminophenoxy)phenyl)-1H-benzimidazole ( p -BIODA), m -BIA based PBIPI films exhibited higher T g , and better solubility. Besides, the thermoplastic PBIPI resin (PI-6-PA) derived from 2,2-bis[4-(3,4-dicarboxyphenoxy)phenyl]propane dianhydride (BPADA) and m -BIA exhibited good melt processability with high T g of 273 °C, melt flow index (MFI) of 7.76 g/10 min, minimum complex viscosity of 11.9 × 10 3 Pa·s at 402 °C and low melt viscosity ratio of 2.46 at 400 °C.
