Developing polymer membranes with high permeability, fouling resistance, and rejection capability is a challenging task that requires the use of novel materials to enhance these properties. In this study, composite ultrafiltration membranes were fabricated by incorporating two types of metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), UIO66 and UIO66@PDA, into polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) using the nonsolvent thermally induced phase separation (NTIPS) method. The results demonstrated that the NTIPS method combined the characteristics of nonsolvent-induced phase separation (NIPS) and thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) to fabricate asymmetric membranes with a dense ultra-thin top layer and a bicontinuous network structure. Moreover, the introduction of 1.0 wt% UIO66@PDA into PVDF membranes yielded notable improvements in mechanical strength, thermal stability, and porosity. Concurrently, this led to a water flux rise from 182.5 to 464.7 L·m −2 ·h −1 , and enhanced BSA and HA rejection to 96% and 83%, respectively. Additionally, there was a significant improvement in the membrane's antifouling capacity, achieving a water flux recovery ratio of 93%. This was facilitated by the increased hydrophilicity of UIO66@PDA, which attracted more water molecules and reduced membrane fouling. This work offers a solution to overcome the permeability-selectivity trade-off in membrane separation by hydrophilic modification of hydrophobic membranes, while also addressing fouling issues.

Nanomaterial-based antimicrobial strategies have emerged as powerful tools to combat microbial resistance, avoiding side effects of misusing antibiotics. In this work, the zinc oxide-based nanohybrid (designated as [email protected] ε-PL) as broad-spectrum antibacterial agents were fabricated in a facile two-step process. To be specific, ZnO was coated with near-infrared (NIR)-photoresponsive polydopamine (PDA), and then coupled with the antimicrobial peptide (AMP) (ε-poly- L -lysine, ε-PL). The as-prepared [email protected] ε-PL can effectively contact and capture bacteria, and then exhibit an excellent photothermal effect, i.e . , the temperature rises rapidly to 53.2 °C (100 μg/ml) under 808 nm NIR light irradiation for 10 min. The synergistic effect of ε-PL, ZnO and photothermal agent PDA contributes to the excellent antibacterial efficiency of [email protected] ε-PL (<100 μg/ml) with 808 nm irradiation, that is, 99.70% and 100.00% against Gram-negative bacteria ( Escherichia coli , E. coli ) and Gram-positive bacteria ( Staphyloccocus aureus , S. aureus ), respectively. Further experiments indicated the [email protected] ε-PL ultimately lead to bacterial death by disrupting cell integrity, leaking of intracellular components (e.g., nucleic acids). Moreover, [email protected] ε-PL can effectively remove 70.84% of S. aureus biofilms. Overall, NIR-responsive [email protected] ε-PL has great potential in the field of infection treatment.

At present, high-performance antibacterial polymer materials have attracted widespread attention, possessing huge application prospects in the fields of medical and biological science, and packaging. In this work, polydopamine nanoparticles (PDA NPs) with photothermal ability and active sites are designed to adsorb fusidic acid (FA) molecules with targeted antibacterial capability; then, polydopamine@fusidic acid (PDA@FA) is introduced into the polyurethane (PU) to obtain multifunctional and antibacterial PU materials (PUDA@FA). The structures and morphologies of PDA NPs and PDA@FA are successfully characterized by Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. With the introduction of PDA@FA, the nano-sized reinforcement not only greatly improves the mechanical properties (tensile strength 19.31 MPa and toughness 10.6 MJ m −3 ) of PU film but also due to the photothermal effect of PDA NPs and the antibacterial of FA, the scavenging activities of DPPH and ABTS reach 70–85% and 55–70%, respectively. The antibacterial rate of Staphylococcus aureus reaches more than 99.9% and presents long-term antibacterial ability. In this way, this work provides new guidance for the preparation of high-performance PU materials with both antibacterial and anti-oxidation properties, broadening the application scope of antibacterial materials.

Nanoparticle drug delivery carriers, which can implement high performances of multi-functions, are of great interest, especially for improving cancer therapy. Herein, we reported a new approach to construct Mn 2+ -coordinated doxorubicin (DOX)-loaded poly(lactic- co -glycolic acid) (PLGA) nanoparticles as a platform for synergistic chemo-photothermal tumor therapy. DOX-loaded PLGA (DOX/PLGA) nanoparticles were first synthesized through a double emulsion-solvent evaporation method, and then modified with polydopamine (PDA) through self-polymerization of dopamine, leading to the formation of PDA@DOX/PLGA nanoparticles. Mn 2+ ions were then coordinated on the surfaces of PDA@DOX/PLGA to obtain Mn 2+ -PDA@DOX/PLGA nanoparticles. In our system, Mn 2+ -PDA@DOX/PLGA nanoparticles could destroy tumors in a mouse model directly, by thermal energy deposition, and could also simulate the chemotherapy by thermal-responsive delivery of DOX to enhance tumor therapy. Furthermore, the coordination of Mn 2+ could afford the high magnetic resonance (MR) imaging capability with sensitivity to temperature and pH. The results demonstrated that Mn 2+ -PDA@ DOX/PLGA nanoparticles had a great potential as a smart theranostic agent due to their imaging and tumor-growth-inhibition properties.

Serum Cystatin C (CysC) is an impressive marker for early diagnosis of renal dysfunction. In this work, we established a novel electrochemical immunosensor based on Fe 3 O 4 /AuNPs-MWCNTs@PDA nanocomposite for the detection of CysC. The Fe 3 O 4 /AuNPs-MWCNTs@PDA nanozyme complex by polydopamine encapsulation can not only carry massive detection antibodies, but also bind the electroactive substance toluidine blue (TB) through electrostatic adsorption. By immobilizing AuNPs onto the electrode to bind the capture antibody (Ab1), we constructed a sandwich electrochemical immunosensor with low cost, high sensitivity, and repeatability. The detection range is 3.9–125.0 ng/mL with a significant linear relationship between the current peak difference (ip) and logarithm of the CysC concentration. Moreover, the detection limit of the immunosensor is 0.157 ng/mL. We have successfully utilized this novel immunosensor to detect CysC in human serum samples, and these results have implications for its potential use in clinical application.

In this study, CuS@PDA nanoparticles were synthesized and used to create a novel tumor-targeting nanocomposite platform composed of copper sulfide@polydopamine–folic acid/doxorubicin (CuS@PDA–FA/DOX) for performing both photothermal and chemotherapeutic cancer treatment. The nanocomposite platform has ultrahigh loading levels (4.2 ± 0.2 mg mg−1) and a greater photothermal conversion efficiency (η = 42.7%) than CuS/PDA alone. The uptake of CuS@PDA–FA/DOX nanocomposites is much higher in MCF-7 cells than in A549 cells because MCF-7 cells have much higher folic acid receptors than A549. Under near infrared (NIR) irradiation, the CuS@PDA–FA/DOX system using a synergistic combination of photothermal therapy and chemotherapy yields a better therapeutic effect than either photothermal therapy or chemotherapy alone. The treatment is very effective with the cell viability is only 5.6 ± 1.4%.

The fabrication of flexible microwave absorbers with high-performance has become an arduous challenge for applications of anti-electromagnetic pollution and radar stealth technology. Herein, a series of FeCoNiOx-PDA-rGO absorbers were prepared and coated on the surface of pretreated polyimide (PI) fabric with PDA-rGO, and finally by screen printing FeCoNiOx-PDA-rGO/WPU for acquiring robust microwave absorption performance, in which the first layer of treated PI fabric was used as the microwave-reflection layer, the medium microwave absorbing powder and water-based polyurethane (WPU) hybrid coating served as the microwave-absorbing layer, and the outside hydrophobic polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) layer was utilized as the microwave-transmission layer. The well-designed microwave absorption fabric exhibits excellent performance in the X-band (8.2–12.4 GHz). The minimum reflection loss (RL min ) value of the designed fabric can reach −74.70 dB with a thickness of 3.97 mm. Meantime, almost in the entire X-band, the sample can absorb more than 99% (RL < -20 dB) of incident electromagnetic waves. Besides, the performance can be adjusted by changing the load rate of each microwave absorbing layer to obtain lighter and thinner samples in practical applications. We believe this work will bring new inspiration to the design of flexible and wearable microwave absorbers.

This work established a novel nucleic acid aptamer sensor for the sensitive and selective detection of AFB1 (Aflatoxin B1), which has important implication for food safety. In a word, we synthesized MXene/MWCNTs/NiCo 2 O 4 composite nanomaterials to improve the sensitivity of the aptamer sensor. The surface of the composite nanomaterials was modified with PDA (poly dopamine) in order to immobilize the NH 2 -cDNA-aptamer complex on the electrode surface by the Schiff base reaction. Characterization of MXene/MWCNTs/NiCo 2 O 4 nanocomposites was carried by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and X-ray diffraction (XRD). Meanwhile, 4-carboxy-2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine 1-oxyl free radical (TEMPO-COOH) was used as an electrochemical signal to detect AFB1. Under optimal conditions, the electrochemical DPV signal decreased with increasing AFB1 concentration, ranging from 2.5 to 200 ng/mL, and the lowest limit of detection (LOD) at 1.890 ng/mL (S/N = 3). In addition, the ensemble sensor showed great reproducibility, stability, and selectivity, which has been successfully applied to the determination of AFB1 in maize flour and maize residue samples with recoveries in the 92.2 ~ 109.8% range. Compared to other detection methods for AFB1, this approach afforded comparable detection limits and detection ranges, in reduced analysis time (within 5 min). Thus, a time-saving, sensitive, and selective approach was achieved for the rapid determination of AFB1 in food.

In this study, novel honeycomb-like morphology MXene@PDA/MOF composites were prepared in situ on the surface of MXene@PDA (polydopamine), combined with 2-methylimidazole and Zn 2+ . The characterizations of morphology and electrochemical properties show that MXene@PDA/MOF has large specific surface areas and outstanding electroconductibility. Furthermore, the MXene@PDA/MOF-based sensor was fabricated to detect l-cysteine (L-Cys). The response of differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) shows the current intensity increases as l-Cys concentration. Under the optimum conditions, DPV response shows a fine linear relationship with l-Cys concentration in a range of 0.01 – 5.0 μmol L −1 with the detection limit of 3.74 × 10 −9 mol L −1 . This sensor was used to detect l-Cys in real samples with recoveries of 100.34 % – 101.68 %. Thus, the MXene@PDA/MOF-based electrochemical sensor exhibits excellent selectivity, reproducibility, stability, and practicability.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are closely associated with the initiation and progression of osteoarthritis (OA). Scavenging ROS within inflamed chondrocytes represents an effective strategy to treat OA. In this study, mimicking natural Mn-SOD, we successfully constructed a nanozyme with Mn 3 O 4 as the core and polydopamine (PDA) as the outer modification. Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations combined with Electron Spin Resonance (ESR) detection revealed that the nanozyme demonstrates high enzyme-like activity. Furthermore, cytotoxicity assays confirmed its excellent biocompatibility. Within inflamed chondrocytes, Mn 3 O 4 @PDA nanozyme had been demonstrated to regulate the oxidative stress microenvironment, thereby inhibiting inflammatory responses. Moreover, injecting Mn 3 O 4 @PDA into the joints of rats with osteoarthritis could effectively alleviate the inflammatory response and relieve the degeneration of articular cartilage, reducing the OARSCI score by 85.25% at 8 weeks. Therefore, this study demonstrated that Mn 3 O 4 @PDA with high enzyme-like activity and good biocompatibility could efficiently scavenge ROS, reduce inflammatory responses, and promote cartilage regeneration, thereby achieving the treatment of OA.

A novel and versatile active–passive integrated strategy to integrate both antifouling and antibacterial properties into PVDF membranes was developed. PDA microspheres on modified membranes served as primers, and we proposed that a “PDA guiding effect” existed during the modification process. Specifically speaking, it was a guiding reduction effect from the PDA microspheres toward Ag+ and a guiding generation effect toward L-cysteine that were separately in favor of the generation of AgNPs and cysteine flowers in cross-sections of the membranes. In addition, the active–passive integrated strategy presented in this research simultaneously includes both an anti-adhesion approach for reducing the initial adsorption of organisms and an anti-bacterial approach for suppressing the activities of attached organisms on the membranes. Conventional filtration experiments clearly demonstrated that the zwitterionic characteristics of L-cysteine made it possible to greatly reduce the initial adhesion of foulants and the deposition of dead bacteria on the membranes. Various bacteria-based experiments proved that AgNPs were effective at preventing the growth, proliferation, and colonization of microorganisms, as well as the accompanying membrane biofouling after long-term operation. Furthermore, self-driven filtration experiments, natural organic matter (NOM) solution filtration experiments, and protein adsorption tests were also carried out to evaluate the practical applications of the modified membranes. In this research, the PDA guiding effect was directed toward inorganic AgNPs and organic L-cysteine. This effect has great possibilities to be extended to other functional materials and to be broadly applied in the construction of diverse functionalized surfaces.

Bacterial infection has increasingly affected people's lives, therefore it is significant to explore novel antibacterial agents and strategies for efficient disinfection. Herein, we designed ZIF-8 based composites ICG@ZIF-8/PDA/Ag, which encapsulate photothermal agent indocyanine green (ICG) and grow polydopamine (PDA) on their surface for in situ reduction to generate Ag nanoparticles. With 20 min of 808 nm laser irradiation at 1.5 W cm−2, 100 μg mL−1 ICG@ZIF-8/PDA/Ag exhibited 100% bactericidal effects toward E. coli and S. aureus bacteria resulting from both hyperthermia of ICG and PDA and chemical toxicity of the released Ag and Zn ions. When the bacterial incubation period was extended to 12 h, the minimum bactericidal concentration (MBC) of ICG@ZIF-8/PDA/Ag was reduced to 6.25 μg mL−1, and this extremely low MBC was due to the long-term chemo-photothermal combinational effect induced by NIR irradiation. Additionally, the composites successfully promote the healing of S. aureus infected wounds on mice. This work constructed photo-responsive antibacterial composites that realize chemo-photothermal synergistic therapy.
