RESUMEN
Introduction: Screening for effective antiviral compounds from traditional Mongolian medicine not only aids in the research of antiviral mechanisms of traditional medicines, but is also of significant importance for the development of new antiviral drugs targeting influenza A virus. Our study aimed to establish high-throughput, rapid screening methods for antiviral compounds against influenza A virus from abundant resources of Mongolian medicine. Methods: The use of GFP-based reporter viruses plays a pivotal role in antiviral drugs screening by enabling rapid and precise identification of compounds that inhibit viral replication. Herein, a GFP-based reporter influenza A virus was used to identify potent anti-influenza compounds within traditional Mongolian medicine. Results: Our study led to the discovery of three active compounds: Cardamonin, Curcumin, and Kaempferide, all of which exhibited significant antiviral properties in vitro. Subsequent analysis confirmed that their effectiveness was largely due to the stimulation of the antiviral signaling pathways of host cells, rather than direct interference with the viral components, such as the viral polymerase. Discussion: This study showcased the use of GFP-based reporter viruses in high-throughput screening to unearth antiviral agents from traditional Mongolian medicine, which contains rich antiviral compounds and deserves further exploration. Despite certain limitations, fluorescent reporter viruses present substantial potential for antiviral drug screening research due to their high throughput and efficiency.

Rational design of coordination environment of Fe-based metal-organic frameworks (Fe-MOFs) is still a challenge in achieving enhanced catalytic activity for Fenten-like advanced oxidation process. Here in, novel porous Fe-MOFs with modulated O-Fe-N coordination was developed by configurating amino terephthalic acid (H2ATA) and pyrazine-dicarboxylic acid (PzDC) (Fe-ATA/PzDC-7:3). PzDC ligands introduce pyridine-N sites to form O-Fe-N coordination with lower binding energy, which affect the local electronic environment of Fe-clusters in Fe-ATA, thus decreased its interfacial H2O2 activation barrier. O-Fe-N coordination also accelerate Fe(II)/Fe(III) cycling of Fe-clusters by triggering the reactive oxidant species mediated Fe(III) reduction. As such, Fe-ATA/PzDC-7:3/H2O2 system exhibited excellent degradation performance for typical antibiotic sulfamethoxazole (SMX), in which the steady-state concentration of hydroxyl radical (OH) was 1.6 times higher than that of unregulated Fe-ATA. Overall, this study highlights the role of O-Fe-N coordination and the electronic environment of Fe-clusters on regulating Fenton-like catalytic performance, and provides a platform for precise engineering of Fe-MOFs.
RESUMEN
In modern war or daily life, blast-induced traumatic brain injury (bTBI) is a growing health concern. Our previous studies demonstrated that inflammation was one of the main features of bTBI, and CD28-activated T cells play a central role in inflammation. However, the mechanism of CD28 in bTBI remains to be elucidated. In this study, traumatic brain injury model induced by chest blast exposure in male mice was established, and the mechanism of CD28 in bTBI was studied by elisa, immunofluorescence staining, flow cytometry analysis and western blot. After exposure to chest shock wave, the inflammatory factors IL-4, IL-6 and HMGB1 in serum were increased, and CD3+ T cells, CD4+ and CD8+ T cell subsets in the lung were activated. In addition, chest blast exposure resulted in impaired spatial learning and memory ability, disruption of the blood-brain barrier (BBB), and the expression of Tau, p-tau, S100ß and choline acetyltransferase were increased. The results indicated that genetic knockdown of CD28 could inhibit inflammatory cell infiltration, as well as the activation of CD3+ T cells, CD4+ and CD8+ T cell subsets in the lung, improve spatial learning and memory ability, and ameliorate BBB disruption and hippocampal neuron damage. Moreover, genetic knockdown of CD28 could reduce the expression of p-PI3K, p-AKT and NF-κB. In conclusion, chest blast exposure could lead to bTBI, and attenuate bTBI via the PI3K/AKT/NF-κB signaling pathway in male mice. This study provides new targets for the prevention and treatment of veterans with bTBI.

Knowledge tracing (KT) refers to predicting learners' performance in the future according to their historical responses, which has become an essential task in intelligent tutoring systems. Most deep learning-based methods usually model the learners' knowledge states via recurrent neural networks (RNNs) or attention mechanisms. Recently emerging graph neural networks (GNNs) assist the KT model to capture the relationships such as question-skill and question-learner. However, non-pairwise and complex higher-order information among responses is ignored. In addition, a single-channel encoded hidden vector struggles to represent multigranularity knowledge states. To tackle the above problems, we propose a novel KT model named dual-channel adaptive scale hypergraph encoders with cross-view contrastive learning (HyperKT). Specifically, we design an adaptive scale hyperedge distillation component for generating knowledge-aware hyperedges and pattern-aware hyperedges that reflect non-pairwise higher-order features among responses. Then, we propose dual-channel hypergraph encoders to capture multigranularity knowledge states from global and local state hypergraphs. The encoders consist of a simplified hypergraph convolution network and a collaborative hypergraph convolution network. To enhance the supervisory signal in the state hypergraphs, we introduce the cross-view contrastive learning mechanism, which performs among state hypergraph views and their transformed line graph views. Extensive experiments on three real-world datasets demonstrate the superior performance of our HyperKT over the state-of-the-art (SOTA).
RESUMEN
Perfluorooctanoic acid (PFOA) poses a threat to the environment and human health due to its persistence, bioaccumulation, and reproductive toxicity. Herein, a lanthanide metal-organic framework (Ln-MOF)-based surface molecularly imprinted polymers (SMIPs) ratiometric fluorescence probe (Eu/Tb-MOF@MIPs) and a smartphone-assisted portable device were developed for the detection of PFOA with high selectivity in real water samples. The integration of Eu/Tb MOFs as carriers not only had highly stable multiple emission signals but also prevented deformation of the imprinting cavity of MIPs. Meanwhile, the MIPs layer preserved the fluorescence of Ln-MOF and provided selective cavities for improved specificity. Molecular dynamics (MD) was employed to simulate the polymerization process of MIPs, revealing that the formation of multiple recognition sites was attributed to the establishment of hydrogen bonds between functional monomers and templates. The probe showed a good linear relationship with PFOA concentration in the range of 0.02-2.8 µM, by giving the limit of detection (LOD) of 0.98 nM. Additionally, The red-green-blue (RGB) values analysis based on the smartphone-assisted portable device demonstrated a linear relationship of 0.1-2.8 µM PFOA with the LOD of 3.26 nM. The developed probe and portable device sensing platform exhibit substantial potential for on-site detecting PFOA in practical applications and provide a reliable strategy for the intelligent identification of important targets in water environmental samples.

Conductive metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have received increasing attention in recent years and present high application potential as sensing elements in electronic sensors. In this study, flexible field-effect transistor (FET) sensors based on conductive MOF, i.e., Ni3(HHTP)2, have been constructed. This Ni3(HHTP)2 sensor has high sensitivity (detection limit of 56 ppb) as well as superior selectivity for NO2 detection at room temperature, which is demonstrated by accurate gas detection in a mixed gas atmosphere. Moreover, by employing six flexible substrates, i.e., polyimide (PI), tape (PET), facemask, paper cup, tablecloth, and take-out bag (textile), we successfully demonstrate the universality of the flexible sensor construction with conductive MOF as sensing film on various substrates. This study of conductive MOF-based flexible electronic sensors offers a new opportunity for a wide range of sensing applications with wearable and portable electronic devices.

Mixed matrix composite membranes (MMCMs) have shown advantages in reducing VOCs and CO2 emissions. Suitable composite layer, substrate, and good compatibility between the filler and the matrix in the composite layer are critical issues in designing MMCMs. This work develops a high-performance UiO-66-NA@PDMS/MCE for VOCs adsorption and CO2 permea-selectivity, based on a simple and facile fabrication of composite layer using amidation-reaction approach on the substrate. The composite layer shows a continuous morphological appearance without interface voids. This outstanding compatibility interaction between UiO-66-NH2 and PDMS is confirmed by molecular simulations. The SiâO functional group and UiO-66-NH2 in the layer leads to improved VOCs adsorption via active sites, skeleton interaction, electrostatic interaction, and van der Waals force. The layer and âCONHâ also facilitate CO2 transport. The MMCMs show strong four VOCs adsorption and high CO2 permeance of 276.5 GPU with a selectivity of 36.2. The existence of VOCs in UiO-66-NA@PDMS/MCE increases the polarity and fine-tunes the pore size of UiO-66-NH2, improving the affinity towards CO2 and thus promoting the permea-selectivity for CO2, which is further verified by GCMC and EMD methods. This work is expected to offer a facile composite layer manufacturing method for MMCMs with high VOC adsorption and CO2 permea-selectivity.
RESUMEN
In the current context of water environmental monitoring and pollution control, there's a crucial need for rapid and simple methods to detect multi-pollutant. We herein report an easy one-step hydrothermal synthesis method to produce Eu-based metal-organic frameworks (Eu MOFs), which was used as a fluorescent probe to detect the aquatic environmental pollutants of ciprofloxacin (CIP) and aluminum ions (Al3+). This fluorescent sensor enabled the cascade detection of CIP and Al3+ through fluorescence enhancement and ratio fluorescence response, respectively. The introduction of CIP significantly turned on the characteristic fluorescence of Eu MOFs at 595 nm and 616 nm through the "antenna effect". Based on this, the sensor enables quantitative detection of CIP within a linear range of 0-120 µM with a LOD as low as 50.421 nM. In the presence of Al3+, the fluorescence emission of Eu MOFs-CIP was sharply turned off due to strong Al3+ coordination with CIP, while the blue fluorescence emission of CIP was remarkably enhanced. And thus allowing ratio fluorescence quantitative detection of Al3+ (LOD = 2.681 µM). The introduction of CIP and Al3+ in cascade resulted in distinct fluorescence color changes from colorless to red and eventually to blue, exhibiting pronounced fluorescence characteristics. This observable phenomenon enables the visual detection of CIP and Al3+ in both aqueous phase and paper test strips. By combining the analysis of fluorescence chromaticity with the use of a smartphone, the fluorescence color of test papers allows for simple quantitative determination, which provides a convenient and accessible approach for quantifying CIP and Al3+ in water environments.

Photocatalytic H2 O2 generation system based on polymer catalyst receives increasing attention in recent years; however, the insufficient charge separation efficiency and low oxygen adsorption/activation capacity severely limit their potential application. In this study, a sulfur (C=S) functionalized polymer catalyst is reported through a green water-mediated and catalyst-free multi-component reactions (MCRs) route. The sulfur functional group endows the polymer with a suitable energy band and facilitates the separation of photogenerated electron-hole pair. The reported polymer achieves a high H2 O2 production efficiency (3132â µmol g-1 h-1 ) in pure water without oxygen aeration. To demonstrate their potential in in situ wastewater treatment, a panel reactor system (20×20â cm) is constructed for large-scale production of H2 O2 , which realizes continuous degradation of emerging pollutants including antibiotics and bisphenol A under natural sunlight irradiation condition. The H2 O2 utilization efficiency of the photo-self-Fenton system using in situ generated H2 O2 is found 7.9â times higher than that of the traditional photo-Fenton system. This study offers new insights in green synthesis and design of functional polymer photocatalyst, and demonstrates the feasibility of panel reactor system for large-scale continuous H2 O2 photocatalytic production and water treatment.
RESUMEN
Transition metal sulfides have garnered increasing attention for their role in persulfate activation, a crucial process in environmental remediation. However, the function of metal sulfides without reversible valence changes, such as ZnS, remains largely unexplored in this context. Here we report ZnS-embedded porous carbon (ZnS-C), synthesized through the pyrolysis of Zn-MOF-74 and dibenzyl disulfide. ZnS-C demonstrates remarkable activity in activating peroxydisulfate (PDS) across a wide pH range, enabling the efficient mineralization removal of bisphenol A (BPA). Through electrochemical investigation and theoretical simulations of charge density distributions, we unveil that the electron transfer from BPA to PDS mediated by the ZnS-C catalyst governs the reaction. This study, both in theory and experiment, demonstrates metal sulfide as electron pump that enhances electron transfer efficiency in PDS activation. These findings redefine the role of metal sulfide catalysts, shedding new light on their potential for regulating reaction pathways in PDS activation processes.
RESUMEN
The surface-intensified, poleward-flowing Gulf Stream (GS) encounters the equatorward-flowing Deep Western Boundary Current (DWBC) at 36° N off Cape Hatteras. In this study, daily output from a data-assimilative, high-resolution (800 m), regional ocean reanalysis was examined to quantify variability in the velocity structure of the GS and DWBC during 2017-2018. The validity of this reanalysis was confirmed with independent observations of ocean velocity and density that demonstrate a high level of realism in the model's representation of the regional circulation. The model's daily velocity time series across a transect off Cape Hatteras was examined using rotated Empirical Orthogonal Function analysis, and analysis suggests three leading modes that characterize the variability of the western boundary currents throughout the water column. The first mode, related to meandering of the GS current, accounts for 55.3% of the variance, followed by a "wind-forced mode", which accounts for 12.5% of the variance. The third mode, influenced by the DWBC and upper-ocean eddies, accounts for 7.1% of the variance.
RESUMEN
Two-dimensional violet phosphorus (VP) has emerged as a new sensing material in various sensing applications due to its unique electrical properties and high stability among allotropes of phosphorus. Currently, the research of the VP-based analysis method is at the early stage. In this work, a VP nanosheet-based field-effect transistor (FET) sensor is reported for the detection of NO2 and N2O gases with extraordinary sensing performance. This sensor can achieve excellent sensitivity of up to â¼50% current change/ppm and a low detection limit of 5.9 ppb and enables the NO2 analysis in various mixed gases. Moreover, this sensor can effectively distinguish between NO2 and N2O gases, which is a big challenge for current FET or chemiresistor gas sensors. The different sensing behaviors of the VP sensor to NO2 and N2O gases have been investigated, and the mechanism study shows that the adsorption energy, bond length of the gas molecule on the VP surface, and the decomposition of N2O led to the differential responses. This work is one of the pioneer studies of VP gas sensors and presents a new sensing method for the discriminative analysis of NO2 and N2O for greenhouse gas emission monitoring and air quality control.
RESUMEN
Electrocatalytic reduction of ethylenediamine tetraacetic acid copper (CuEDTA), a typical refractory heavy metal complexation pollutant, is an environmental benign method that operates at mild condition. Unfortunately, the selective reduction of CuEDTA is still a big challenge in cathodic process. In this work, we report a MoS2 nanosheet/graphite felt (GF) cathode, which achieves an average Faraday efficiency of 29.6% and specific removal rate (SRR) of 0.042 mol/cm2/h for CuEDTA at - 0.65 V vs SCE (saturated calomel electrode), both of which are much higher than those of the commonly reported electrooxidation technology-based removal systems. Moreover, a proof-of-concept CuEDTA/Zn battery with Zn anode and MoS2/GF cathode is demonstrated, which has bifunctions of simultaneous CuEDTA removal and energy output. This is one of the pioneer studies on the electrocatalytic reduction of heavy metal complex and CuEDTA/Zn battery, which brings new insights in developing efficient electrocatalytic reduction system for pollution control and energy output.
RESUMEN
The efficiency of persulfate-assisted advanced oxidation processes (PS-AOPs) in degrading organic pollutants is affected by the electron-donating capability of organic substances present in the water source. In this study, we systematically investigate the electron-donating capacity (EDC) difference between groundwater and surface water and demonstrate the dependence of removal efficiency on the EDC of target water by PS-AOPs with carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as a catalyst. Laboratory analyses and field experiments reveal that the CNT/PS system exhibits higher performance in organic pollutant removal in groundwater with a high concentration of phenols, compared to surface water, which is rich in quinones. We attribute this disparity to the selective electron transfer pathway induced by potential difference between PS-CNT and organic substance-CNT intermediates, which preferentially degrade organic substances with stronger electron-donating capability. This study provides valuable insights into the inherent selective removal mechanism and application scenarios of electron transfer process-dominated PS-AOPs for water treatment based on the electron-donating capacity of organic pollutants.

Photocatalytic production of H2 O2 has drawn significant attention in recent years, but the yield rate of current photocatalytic systems is still unsatisfactory. Moreover, the presence of various components in actual water bodies will consume the photogenerated charges and deactivate the catalyst, severely limiting the real applications of photocatalytic H2 O2 production. Herein, a cyano-modified polymer photocatalyst is synthesized by Knoevenagel condensation with subsequent thermal polymerization. The introduction of cyano group and sulfer (S), oxygen (O) elements modulates the microstructure and energy band of the polymer catalyst, and the cyano group sites can effectively adsorb and activate O2 , realizing the generation of H2 O2 in the two-step single-electron oxygen reduction process. The reported system achieves high H2 O2 generation rate up to 1119.2 µmol g-1 h-1 in various water bodies including tap water, river water, seawater, and secondary effluent. This simple and readily available catalyst demonstrates good anti-interference performance and pH adaptability in photocatalytic H2 O2 production in actual water bodies, and its photodegradation and sterilization applications are also demonstrated. This study offers new insights in developing polymer catalysts for efficient photocatalytic production of H2 O2 in various water bodies for practical application.
RESUMEN
Self-gelling and bioadhesive powders offered promising effective hemostats to suit irregularly shaped, complex and non-compressible wounds for clinical applications. In the current study, chitosan based polyelectrolyte complex coacervate were simply prepared by mixing high concentrations (10 %) of low molecular weight chitosan (CS) and polyacrylic acid (PAA) solutions. Obtained by lyophilization, the physical cross-linked polyelectrolyte complex powders would form a gel within 5 s upon hydration, which demonstrated excellent mechanical properties, significant antibacterial activities, strong and lasting adhesion on wet tissues in physiological environment. In vitro blood clotting assays showed that the CS/PAA powders could remarkably aggregate blood cells and accelerate blood clotting process. As studied by diverse hemorrhage models, including rat tail, liver and heart injuries and dog incision, CS/PAA powders significantly facilitated the decrease of blood loss as well as hemostatic time by creating robust physical barriers and promoting blood clot formation on the bleeding sites. These outstanding properties in terms of easy preparation, rapid self-gelling, strong wet adhesion, effective hemostasis and shape-adaptability endowed CS/PAA polyelectrolyte complex powders with great potential in managing acute hemorrhage of non-compressible trauma.

A molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs)-isolated AuNP-enhanced fluorescence sensor, AuNP@MIPs-CdTe QDs, was developed for highly sensitive and selective detection of oxytetracycline (OTC) in aqueous medium. The developed sensor combined the advantages of strong fluorescence signal of metal-enhanced fluorescence (MEF), high selectivity of MIPs, and stability of CdTe QDs. The MIPs shell with specific recognition served as an isolation layer to adjust the distance between AuNP and CdTe QDs to optimize the MEF system. The sensor demonstrated the detection limit as low as 5.22 nM (2.40 µg/L) for a concentration range of 0.1-3.0 µM OTC and good recovery rates of 96.0-103.0% in real water samples. In addition, high specificity recognition for OTC over its analogs was achieved with an imprinting factor of 6.10. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation was utilized to simulate the polymerization process of MIPs and revealed H-bond formation as the mainly binding sites of APTES and OTC, and finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) analysis was employed to obtain the distribution of electromagnetic field (EM) for AuNP@MIPs-CdTe QDs. The experimental results combined with theoretical analyses not only provided a novel MIP-isolated MEF sensor with excellent detection performance for OTC but also established a theoretical basis for the development of a new generation of sensors.

Two-dimensional (2D) black phosphorus (BP) has been reported to have appealing semiconducting properties as the sensing channel in field-effect transistor (FET) sensors. However, the intrinsic instability of BP in water greatly hinders its application, and little is known about its sensing performance and mechanism in aqueous medium. Herein, a water-stable BP FET sensor for antibiotic detection is reported. A novel surface engineering strategy with Ag+ coordination and melamine cyanurate (MC) supramolecular passivation is utilized to enhance the stability and transistor performance of BP. With molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) as the detection probe for tetracycline, the BPAg(+)/MC/MIPs sensor shows high sensitivity to tetracycline with a detection limit of 7.94 nM and a quick response within 6 s as well as high selectivity against other antibiotics with similar molecular structures. A new sensing mechanism relying on the conjugation effect of the probe structure is proposed, and new knowledge about alkalinity-enhanced and ionic strength-related response from the electrostatic gating effect is given based on the solution chemistry impact study. This work offers an efficient surface engineering strategy to enable the application of 2D BP for antibiotic detection in aqueous medium and presents a new sensing mechanism in chemical analysis by FET sensors.

Disinfection byproducts (DBPs), as an emerging water pollutant, present increasing concern and risk in public health and water safety. Due to their low concentration levels and inherent similarity in molecular structures, sensitive and accurate determination of DBPs is still a challenge especially for onsite or online detection. Herein, a self-regulated fluorescent probe based on the Ag nanoprism-modified lanthanide metal-organic framework (AgNPR@EuMOF) is designed for trichloroacetic acid (TCAA) detection. The EuMOF is constructed with Eu as the metal node and 5-boronoisophthalic acid as the ligand. By introducing sulfhydryl groups into EuMOF, AgNPR can be anchored on the EuMOF surface through Ag-S bonds, enabling the synthesis of stable AgNPR@EuMOF composites. During the sensing process, the triangle AgNPR will react with the organic halogen molecule, accomplished with the blue shift of surface plasmon resonance absorption peak and the significant change in the fluorescence of EuMOF. This probe can detect TCAA in a wide concentration range (0.1-40 µM) with high sensitivity and specificity. The density functional theory calculation on binding energies between DBPs and AgNPR suggests that TCAA has the largest interaction ability with AgNPR than other DBPs. Moreover, the detection of TCAA in real tap water and swimming pool water is also demonstrated with high accuracy. The reported AgNPR@EuMOF represents one of the pioneer fluorescence probes in DBP detection, which holds great promise for onsite or online analysis of trace DBPs in water.
RESUMEN
During these years, the 3D node coverage of heterogeneous wireless sensor networks that are closer to the actual application environment has become a strong focus of research. However, the direct application of traditional two-dimensional planar coverage methods to three-dimensional space suffers from high application complexity, a low coverage rate, and a short life cycle. Most methods ignore the network life cycle when considering coverage. The network coverage and life cycle determine the quality of service (QoS) in heterogeneous wireless sensor networks. Thus, energy-efficient coverage enhancement is a significantly pivotal and challenging task. To solve the above task, an energy-efficient coverage enhancement method, VKECE-3D, based on 3D-Voronoi partitioning and the K-means algorithm is proposed. The quantity of active nodes is kept to a minimum while guaranteeing coverage. Firstly, based on node deployment at random, the nodes are deployed twice using a highly destructive polynomial mutation strategy to improve the uniformity of the nodes. Secondly, the optimal perceptual radius is calculated using the K-means algorithm and 3D-Voronoi partitioning to enhance the network coverage quality. Finally, a multi-hop communication and polling working mechanism are proposed to lower the nodes' energy consumption and lengthen the network's lifetime. Its simulation findings demonstrate that compared to other energy-efficient coverage enhancement solutions, VKECE-3D improves network coverage and greatly lengthens the network's lifetime.
