3-chloropropane-1, 2-diol (3-MCPD) esters are a kind of food processing contaminants that especially occur in edible oil . This study investigated the impact of various factors on the formation of 3-MCPD esters in edible oil models with sodium chloride as chlorine donator during heat processing . The amount of 3-MCPD esters generated in the models were positively correlated with the concentration of sodium chloride. Fe 3+ could significantly promote the formation of 3-MCPD esters. The formation of 3-MCPD esters also depended on pH value of oil, heating temperature and time. The highest level of 3-MCPD esters were obtained at pH 4.0 (2925.3 μg/kg), at 220 °C (9509.8 μg/kg) and for 8 h (4852.4 μg/kg), respectively. 3-MCPD esters were generated much more in the continuous heating model than in the intermittent one. The results are valuable to better understand the formation of 3-MCPD esters and also can provide references for reduction of 3-MCPD esters during edible oil processing and household cooking.

Lead-free (1 − x)BaTiO3–xBi(Zn2/3Nb1/3)O3 (x = 0.05–0.20) materials were fabricated via solid-state reactions. A pure perovskite pseudocubic structure is obtained for all compositions. Dielectric measurements reveal an intensified diffusion and relaxor-like characteristics from 5 mol% to 20 mol% Bi(Zn2/3Nb1/3)O3. Weakly coupled relaxor behavior is concluded from the exceptionally high activation energies of ∼0.20–0.22 eV from the Vogel–Fulcher model for x ≥ 0.10, which possibly results in the extremely low dielectric nonlinearity and extra slim polarization–electric field loops. An optimal discharged energy density of 0.79 J cm−3 with a high energy efficiency of 93.5% is achieved at 131 kV cm−1 for x = 0.15, which proves that the BaTiO3–Bi(Zn2/3Nb1/3)O3 material is a promising candidate for high energy storage applications.

The roles of sugar chains such as heparan sulfate (HS) in stem cell self-renewal and differentiation are poorly understood. HS is a sugar chain with linear sulfated polyanionic disaccharide repeating structures that interact with many proteins, including structural proteins in the extracellular matrix and growth factors and their receptors. Thus, unraveling the role of HS in stem cell self-renewal and differentiation could provide new insights and technical routes in clinical stem cell applications. Here, we purified rat bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells (BMMSCs) by density gradient centrifugation, analyzed mesenchymal stromal cell surface stemness marker expression by flow cytometry, and identified the sulfotransferases responsible for sulfation ester modification of HS. An osteogenic differentiation model was established by chemical induction reagents and confirmed via alkaline phosphatase (ALP) activity detection and the expression of the osteogenic differentiation markers Runx2 and Ocn. The expression profiles of HS sulfotransferases in rat BMMSCs before and after osteogenic induction were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot. Cell spheroids were formed in both control and osteogenic culture systems when BMMSCs were grown to high confluence. We determined that this type of cell spheroid was a highly calcified nodule by histochemical staining. Among all the sulfotransferases examined, heparan sulfate 6-O-sulfotransferase 3 (HS6ST3) mRNA and protein were upregulated in these calcified cell spheroids. HS6ST3 knockdown BMMSCs were established with RNA interference, and they had significantly lower ALP activity and decreased expression of the osteogenic differentiation markers Runx2 and Ocn. These findings suggest that HS6ST3 is involved in BMMSC differentiation, and new glycotherapeutic-based technologies could be developed in the future.

Sr [1−3( x + y )/2] Al 2 B 2 O 7 : x Eu 3+ , y Bi 3+ ( x = 0–5 mol% and y = 0–5 mol%) phosphors are synthesized by a solid-state reaction method in air, and their crystal structure, fluorescence lifetime, and luminescence properties are investigated. The optimal composition is determined to be (Sr 0.94 Eu 0.03 Bi 0.01 )Al 2 B 2 O 7 . The PLE band peaks within the range 200–550 nm are due to O 2− → Eu 3+ charge transfer band, 7 F 0 → 5 H 3 , 5 D 4 , 5 L 7 , 5 L 6 , 5 D 3 , 5 D 2 , and 5 D 1 transitions, respectively. The strongest PL band peak under excitation 394 nm light is at ∼615 nm owing to 5 D 0 → 7 F 2 transition of Eu 3+ ion. The PL intensity of Eu 3+ , Bi 3+ co-doped SrAl 2 B 2 O 7 phosphor is 1.3 times that of Eu 3+ doped SrAl 2 B 2 O 7 phosphor due to the energy transfer between Eu 3+ and Bi 3+ ions, which is explained by the energy level diagrams of Bi 3+ and Eu 3+ ions. The CIE chromaticity coordinates of Sr 0.955 Al 2 B 2 O 7 :0.03Eu 3+ and Sr 0.94 Al 2 B 2 O 7 :0.03Eu 3+ , 0.01Bi 3+ phosphors under excitation 394 nm light are ( x = 0.6292, y = 0.3702) and ( x = 0.6284, y = 0.3711), respectively. These phosphors will be used as reddish orange emitting phosphor candidate for white LED with ∼394 nm near ultraviolet LED chip.

Photocatalysts with excellent photocatalytic reaction activity and ideal selectivity are highly desirable for pollutants clearance and purification of targeted organics from a mixture. Continued efforts toward the goal, we here present a facile hydrothermal route to synthesize TiO 2 /Bi-benzenedicarboxylate/BiOCl nanoparticles decorated ultrathin nanosheets with a thickness less than 5 nm on a large scale. The as-synthesized products showed excellent photocatalytic activities for the degradation of various dyes such as rhodamine B, eosin Y and methylene blue in aqueous solution under visible light irradiation. The photocatalytic activities of TiO 2 /Bi-benzenedicarboxylate/BiOCl nanocomposites for the degradation of rhodamine B and eosin Y could be adjusted through tuning the content of TiO 2 . With increasing the amount of TiO 2 , the composites showed declining photocatalytic activities in decomposing of rhodamine B while on the contrary they displayed enhanced photocatalytic activities in decomposing of eosin Y. Interestingly, TiO 2 /Bi-benzenedicarboxylate/BiOCl composite nanosheets showed obvious photocatalytic selectivity in a mixed dyes system. The photocatalytic reaction and selectivity mechanisms of the nanocomposites for the degradation of the dyes were discussed on the basis of experimental results. The current study not only develops a new methodology to synthesize ultrathin nanosheets but also provides a novel strategy to design composite photocatalysts with high reaction activity and good selectivity.

In this paper, we report a facile, low-cost synthesis of Cu2Sn(SxSe1−x)3 colloidal nanocrystals (NCs) by heating a mixture of metal salts, sulfur powder, selenium powder, oleylamine and dodecanethiol. The composition of the Cu2Sn(SxSe1−x)3 NCs could be tuned across the x range from 0 to 1 by modulating the molar ratio of the S/Se precursors. The lattice parameters (a and c) of the Cu2Sn(SxSe1−x)3 NCs, calculated from X-ray diffraction patterns, were consistent with Vegard's law, confirming the formation of homogeneous nanocrystals. The X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy results indicated that the as-prepared Cu2Sn(SxSe1−x)3 NCs had a monoclinic structure. The UV-visible absorption spectra of the Cu2Sn(SxSe1−x)3 NCs revealed that the band gap of the nanocrystals could be tailored from 1.55 to 1.87 eV by decreasing the Se content. Additionally, compared with the more commonly used hot injection method, the procedure developed here is highly suitable for large-scale colloidal nanocrystal production, which we tested by performing a gram-scale synthesis.

Dense and phase-pure zeolite LTA membranes were hydrothermally synthesized on 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APTES)-modified macroporous Al 2 O 3 tubes without seeding. Pervaporation experiments were conducted for the separation of liquid water/iso-butanol and water/ethanol mixtures to evaluate the separation performances of the zeolite LTA membranes. A water flux of 4.5 kg/m 2 h is obtained at 100 °C for the separation of a 95.0 wt% iso-butanol/5.0 wt% water mixture, and the separation factors of water/iso-butanol are found to be about 3000 for all temperatures and concentrations studied.

A superior solid-phase microextraction (SPME) fiber-coating material, IRMOF-3@ILs/PDMS, was prepared by the in situ growth of IRMOF-3 onto stainless-steel wires and protection with ionic liquids (ILs) and polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). The ILs can efficiently prevent the substantial cracking of IRMOF-3 caused by moisture, and a thin PDMS film can protect the IRMOF-3@ILs material to achieve a much better extraction efficiency as well as excellent resistance to high temperature and high humidity. This IRMOF-3@ILs/PDMS coating possessed a porous structure, a rough surface and an increased lifespan (by at least 100 times) compared with that of IRMOF-3. The coating was evaluated by analyzing four polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in water, and good precision (<7.7%), low detection limits (12.0–15.4 ng L −1 ), and wide linearity (50–20,000 ng L −1 ) were achieved under the optimized conditions. The fiber was successfully applied to the sensitive analysis of PAHs in rainwater by coupling it with gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS).

Summary Background & aims The catabolic pathways of n-3 triglyceride (TG) rich particles (n-3 TGRP) have not been clearly elucidated. In this study, we investigated the effects of lipoprotein lipase (LPL) on the catabolism of n-3 TGRP compared to n-6 TGRP in vivo and in vitro, and we determined whether particle size affects the biological functions of LPL in n-3 TGRP catabolism. Methods Four types of lipid emulsions , chylomicron (CM)-sized n-3 TG and n-6 TG emulsions, and very low density lipoprotein (VLDL)-sized n-3 TG and n-6 TG emulsions, were labeled with 1,1′-dioctadecy1-3,3,3′,3′-tetramethylindo-carbocyanine perchlorate (DiI) and administered via a bolus injection to LPL gene knockout (LPL+/−) mice in vivo and were added to cultured LPL miRNA-transfected 3T3-L1 adipocytes in vitro. Results With CM-sized emulsions, a reduction in LPL expression in LPL+/− mice had almost no effect on tissue uptake of n-3 TG emulsions with smaller changes in their initial blood clearance ; however, greater effects were observed for VLDL-sized n-3 TG emulsions with respect to tissue uptake with greater changes in their initial blood clearance, compared to n-6 TG emulsions with the same size. In vitro, LPL miRNA transfection had smaller effects on CM-sized and greater effects on VLDL-sized n-3 TG emulsions, with respect to particle uptake, cell TG mass, particle-cell binding and particle lipolysis . Conclusion These results suggested that LPL is more important for catabolism of n-3 TGRP of smaller size; whereas it is essential for catabolism of all sizes of n-6 TGRP.

AIM: To investigate the possible role of chitinase 3-like-1 (CHI3L1) in the progression of colitis-associated carcinoma (CAC). METHODS: Thirty-four Balb/c mice were randomly assigned to five groups, including the control, CAC control, CAC + caffeine, colitis control and colitis + caffeine. Three animals were sacrificed every two weeks for blinded macroscopic inspection, histological analysis, and total RNA extraction. An immunofluorescent assay was performed using specimens from the colitis control and colitis + caffeine groups to investigate whether the protective effect of caffeine was associated with less oxidative DNA damage. In vitro , HT29 cells pre-stimulated with different concentrations of recombinant CHI3L1 protein and H 2 O 2 were loaded with the DCFH-DA fluorescent probe to determine the effect of CHI3L1 on intracellular reactive oxygen species production. RESULTS: CHI3L1 mRNA was increased during the progression of colon carcinogenesis. Tumors were mostly located in the distal end of the colon where the expression of CHI3L1 was higher than in the proximal colon. Caffeine-treated mice developed fewer tumors and milder inflammation than untreated mice. CHI3L1 protein increased reactive oxygen species in HT29 cells when exposed to H 2 O 2 . CONCLUSION: Caffeine reduces tumor incidence by decreasing oxidative DNA damage. CHI3L1 may contribute to CAC by increasing reactive oxygen species production.
