In this work, polypyrrole-coated Cu, Ni co-doped ZIF-67 (PPy@CuNi-ZIF-67) was designed and prepared via a facile method. Calcined PPy@CuNi-ZIF-67 exhibited highly efficient oxidase-like activity and possessed excellent capacity to oxidize colorless 3,3′,5,5′-tetramethyl benzidine (TMB) into blue oxidation products (oxTMB) within 4 min. Glutathione (GSH) and sulfur-containing compounds can inhibit its oxidase-like activity. Based on this principle, an effective colorimetric method was developed in combination with a smartphone for efficient, sensitive, and visual detection of GSH. Under optimal conditions, good linearity was achieved in the range of 0.83–33.33 μM, and the visual detection limit was 0.27 μM. Moreover, based on the response difference of different sulfur-containing compounds to different chromogenic substrates, a new array sensor was constructed with three chromogenic substrates. The array sensor was proven to quickly distinguish five sulfur-containing compounds at a concentration as low as 8.3 μM in combination with principal component analysis and hierarchical clustering analysis.

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is considered to be a principal cause of cancer death across the world, and nanomedicine has provided promising alternatives for the treatment of NSCLC in recent years. Photothermal therapy (PTT) and chemodynamic therapy (CDT) have represented novel therapeutic modalities for cancer treatment with excellent performance. The purpose of this research was to evaluate the effects of PPy@Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) on inhibiting growth and metastasis of NSCLC by combination of PTT and CDT. In this study, we synthesized PPy@Fe3O4 NPs through a very facile electrostatic absorption method. And we detected reactive oxygen species production, cell apoptosis, migration and protein expression in different groups of A549 cells and established xenograft models to evaluate the effects of PPy@Fe3O4 NPs for inhibiting the growth of NSCLC. The results showed that the PPy@Fe3O4 NPs had negligible cytotoxicity and could efficiently inhibit the cell growth and metastasis of NSCLC in vitro. In addition, the PPy@Fe3O4 NPs decreased tumor volume and growth in vivo and endowed their excellent MRI capability of observing the location and size of tumor. To sum up, our study displayed that the PPy@Fe3O4 NPs had significant synergistic effects of PTT and CDT, and had good biocompatibility and safety in vivo and in vitro. The PPy@Fe3O4 NPs may be an effective drug platform for the treatment of NSCLC.

Developing superhydrophilic/underwater superoleophobic surfaces to restrict oil pollution during oil/water separation processes has been an effective approach. However, the inevitable adsorption and aggregation of organic contaminants onto the membrane surface from complex oily sewage usually causes an irreversible decrease in flux, damages the anti-oil-fouling properties and shortens the lifespan of the separation membrane. Thus, neoteric antifouling and renewable membranes are highly desired. Herein, based on stabilized PAN nanofibers and following the assembly of a heterostructured PPy/ZnO layer with hierarchical structure onto the nanofiber surfaces, we report a robust visible-light-induced self-repairable oil/water separation membrane. The SPAN–PPy/ZnO membrane displays superhydrophilicity (≈0°) and underwater superoleophobicity (>150°) toward different oils, with robust mechanical strength (Young's modulus ≈ 408 MPa) and a high underwater oil intrusion pressure (>120 kPa). Importantly, the as-prepared membrane not only exhibits ultrafast permeation flux and high separation efficiency for oil/dye/water emulsions, but it also displays robust recovery abilities (96%) from organic pollutants after 20 min of light irradiation. We anticipate that this composite membrane with outstanding separation capabilities and robust flux recovery capabilities can provide a novel method for the treatment and purification of large volumes of wastewater.

In this study, a stable and controllable poly( p -phenylene terephthamide)/polypyrrole (PPTA/PPy) composite organic solvent nanofiltration (OSN) hollow fiber membrane was successfully prepared based on the robust chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. The structure and properties of the prepared PPTA/PPy OSN membranes were studied in detail. Interestingly, after modifying by PPy, SEM showed that the surface of the membrane formed a layer of “Turing-like” structure and evenly covered the surface of the membrane. It was evident that the prepared PPTA/PPy OSN membranes achieved good dye-removal ability with a molecular weight cut-off range from 200 to1000 Da, and the rejection of negative dyes was higher than 93.4%. Especially at high temperature (80 °C) and organic solvent ( N , N -dimethylacetamide, DMAc), the PPTA/PPy OSN membranes still exhibited excellent permeation and separation performance. Furthermore, at room temperature, the immersion experiment of the fabricated PPTA/PPy OSN membranes in both ethanol and DMAc for one month also proved the stability of long-term organic solvents. Based on the above results, this work offered a novel PPTA based hollow fiber nanofiltration membrane, which was expected to be applied in thermal and organic dye wastewater treatment .

At present, artificial mimic enzyme has become a powerful substitute for natural enzyme. In particular, the biosensors based on nano-enzymes have been the focus of current research. Herein, a novel magnetic ternary nanocomposite hemin-Fe 3 O 4 @polypyrrole (h-Fe 3 O 4 @ppy) was synthesized by chemical oxidation polymerization. The results showed that the h-Fe 3 O 4 @ppy had stronger peroxidase activity than Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles (Fe 3 O 4 NPs) and h-ppy NPs, and was indicated by Michaelis-Menten constant (K m ) and maximum initial velocity (V max ). Therefore, we used h-Fe 3 O 4 @ppy catalyzing H 2 O 2 to oxidize the chromogenic substrate TMB, and built Hydrogen peroxide (H 2 O 2 ) and Glutathione (GSH) colorimetric biosensors with the help of signal intrinsic exponential amplification and easy operation. The controllable catalysis was realized by h-Fe 3 O 4 @ppy which was prone to separation. The method of removing h-Fe 3 O 4 @ppy by magnetic separation effectively eliminated the effect of residual catalysis when terminating the reaction. The sensor was then applied to the determination of GSH in biological samples from acute coronary syndrome patients. The linear ranges of H 2 O 2 and GSH were 0.2–100 μM and 0.5–80 μM, respectively. The detection limits of H 2 O 2 and GSH are 0.18 μM and 0.15 μM, respectively. This research not only proposes a new type of nanoenzyme, but also shows the multiple advantages of magnetic nano-enzymes for the construction of biosensors.

In present study, a sensitive and effective electrochemical microRNA (miRNA) sensing platform is successfully developed by integrating gold nanoparticles/polypyrrole-reduced graphene oxide (Au/PPy-rGO), catalyzed hairpin assembly (CHA) and hybridization chain reaction (HCR) multiple signal amplification strategy. Firstly, Au/PPy–rGO was employed onto a bare GCE by electrodeposition that can greatly enhanced conductivity and effectively immobilize probes. Then, the thiolated capture probes (SH-CP) were self-assembled on the Au/PPy–rGO modified GCE via Au-S bond. The target miRNA triggered the dynamic assembly of the two hairpin substrates (H1 and H2), leading to the cyclicality of the target miRNA and the formation of H1–H2 complexes without the assistance of enzyme. Subsequently, the newly emerging DNA fragment of H2 triggered the HCR when a mixture solution (hairpins H3 and H4) and produced dsDNA polymers. Finally, a substantial amount of methylene blue (MB) as signal indicator was intercalated into the minor groove of the long dsDNA polymers to achieve detected electrochemical signal. The fabricated sensor is able to detect miRNA-16 (model target) with concentration range from 10 fM to 5 nM with a low detection limit (LOD) of 1.57 fM (S/N = 3). Current research suggests that the developed multiple signal amplification platform has a great potential for the applications in the field of biomedical research and clinical analysis.

Membrane separation technology is considered as one of the most promising wastewater treatment technologies. However, difficulties in thorough water purification and poor fouling resistance in practical applications are some of the major concerns associated to membrane-based water purification. In the present investigation, a combination of efficient and environmentally friendly photocatalysis technology has been adopted for the fabrication of a series of [email protected] multifunctional photocatalytic composite membranes by stacking MXene nanosheets and BiOCl-PPy photocatalytic nanoparticles on polyethersulfone (PES) substrates. The composite membranes with BiOCl-PPy nanoparticles exhibited excellent permeation performance with pure water (flux of 3680.2 L m −2 h −1 ). Moreover, the composite membranes achieved 99.9% of combined removal rate for three different dyes and 96% for antibiotic (Tetracycline Hydrochloride) by physical sieving and photocatalytic degradation. The self-cleaning mechanism of composite membranes maintained good long-term permeability and selectivity during the cyclic tests. Hence, the service life of the membrane under visible light irradiation has been significantly improved without any compromise on the membrane performance. The density functional theory (DFT) calculation has been utilized to understand the mechanism in enhancing the photocatalytic activity of the composite membrane.

In recent years, multi-modal flexible tactile sensors have become an important direction in the development of electronic skin because of their excellent sensitivity, flexibility and wearable properties. In this work, a humidity-pressure multi-modal flexible sensor based on polypyrrole (PPy)/Ti 3 C 2 T x sensitive film packaged with porous polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is investigated by combining the sensitive structure generation mechanism of in situ polymerization to achieve the simultaneous detection of humidity and pressure, which has a sensitivity of 89,113.4 Ω/% RH in a large humidity range of 0%–97% RH, and response/recovery time of 2.5/1.9 s. The tactile pressure sensing has a high sensitivity, a fast response of 67/52 ms, and a wide detection limit. The device also has excellent performance in terms of stability and repeatability, making it promising for respiratory pattern and motion detection. This work provides a new solution to address the construction of multi-modal tactile sensors with potential applications in the fields of medical health, epidemic prevention.

In this work, a hydrophilic polypyrrole carboxymethyl cellulose aerogel (PPY/CMC) with a 3D structure was prepared via in-situ polymerization of pyrrole monomers with carboxymethyl cellulose as the substrate. The adsorption experiments showed that tetracycline can be effectively removed in a wide range of pH (4–10), and the adsorption capacity was 689.39 mg/g when the pH value was 6. The pseudo-second-order kinetic and Langmuir models better fitted the kinetic and isotherm data, which revealed that the adsorption was homogeneous and dominated by chemisorption. The experiment of adsorption thermodynamics showed that the adsorption process was spontaneous and endothermic. Zeta potential, FT-IR and XPS results indicated that the adsorption mechanism included π-π EDA interaction, hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interaction. Through Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Frontier Orbital Theory (FOT) simulation, the microscopic adsorption mechanism was further explored on the molecular and electronic scales. It is confirmed that TC was adsorbed onto PPY/CMC aerogels mainly through π-π EDA interaction in sandwich (S) configuration and parallel-displaced (PD) configuration, thus ensuring high adsorption efficiency. Compared with various adsorbent materials reported recently, the PPY/CMC aerogels have the advantages of higher adsorption capacity, excellent pH buffering capacity, simple preparation process and quickly removal of pollutants.

Crystal violet (CV) residues in Marine food have produced a severe health threat in human life. In this study, we proposed a semiconductor surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) sensor of corrosion-resistant Polyaniline/Graphene oxide (PPy/GO) film by electrochemical growth method to detect CV residues in fresh fish tissue. A PPy/GO dispersion solution was one-step deposited on a stainless steel sheet surface by electrochemical polymerization process to form a PPy/GO composite film acting as a semiconductor SERS substrate. Since the substrate of PPy/GO film was mainly composed of GO sheet without other metals, it had a good corrosion resistance. The SERS enhancement factor and charge transfer intensity P CT of PPy/Go SERS substrate for CV molecules were up to 1.18 × 10 6 and 0.903, respectively. Furthermore, the limit of detection ( LOD ) of PPy/GO SERS substrate could reach 1.58 nM. In addition, SERS sensor of PPy/GO film could identify CV residues in fresh fish tissues, and its recovery rate was 91.8 %–107 %. This preparing method and detecting method we proposed PPy/GO SERS substrate provide a new pathway for detecting CV residues in Marine food.

Non-healing diabetic foot ulcers are the knotty public health issue due to the uncontrolled bacterial infection, prolonged inflammation, and inferior vessel remodeling. In this work, polypyrrole (Ppy) was added into the hybrid hydrogel containing polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), polyethylene glycol (PEG), and hyaluronan (HA) to acquire superior mechanism and photothermal ability. The Ppy composited hybrid hydrogel could effectively kill bacteria through accumulating heat on the hydrogel surface. RNA-Seq analysis shows that the heat accumulation could enhance phagosome of macrophage and M1 activation, which further accelerate bacteria clearance. Benefitting from the bacteria clearance, macrophage could transform its phenotype to M2 in Ppy composited hybrid hydrogel group with near infrared light (NIR) stimulation. The related genes expression in keratinization, keratinocyte differentiation, and establishment of the skin barrier in the skin were up-regulated and collagen and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) expression level are also enhanced. In summary, Ppy composited hybrid hydrogel could effectively solve the issues of infection and poor wound healing in diabetic foot ulcers, making it an ideal candidate dressing for the treatment of chronic wounds.

Abstract There is an urgent need to develop flexible yarn-type supercapacitors with excellent electrochemical and mechanical properties for flexible energy storage devices in portable and wearable electronics. In this study, graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets and polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-GO nanofibres were coated on the surface of Ni-plated cotton yarn (NCY) via conjugate electrospinning technology, followed by chemical deposition of a polypyrrole (PPy) layer through in situ polymerisation of pyrrole, obtaining a flexible wearable PPy@GO/PAN-GO@Ni-coated cotton core-spun yarn (PGPG/NCY) electrode. The synergetic effect of NCY, GO/PAN-GO nanofibres, and PPy nanoparticles imparted a hierarchically porous structure, good conductivity, and high tensile strength (71.43 MPa) to this electrode. A flexible symmetric all-solid-state two-ply yarn supercapacitor based on PGPG/NCY electrodes was assembled. This yarn supercapacitor exhibited a high areal specific capacitance (28.34 mF cm −2 ) and high energy density (3.98 μWh cm −2 ), which are superior to those of other yarn supercapacitors. The capacitance retention of this yarn supercapacitor remained at 90.2% after 1000 cyclic voltammetry cycles and 100% at different bending angles; the yarn supercapacitor exhibited high electrochemical performance and cycling stability. Thus, the proposed high-performance yarn supercapacitor based on PGPG/NCY electrodes is promising and widely applicable in wearable devices. Graphical Abstract
