Effects of different postharvest drying processes on flavonoid content and enzymatic activity of Styphnolobium japonicum (L.) Schott flowers for industrial and medicinal use.

Traditionally, fresh S. japonicum flowers (SJF) and S. japonicum flowers buds (SJFB) are dried prior to further processing and use. Here, we investigated the ways in which drying techniques, including sun drying (SD), steam drying (STD), microwave drying (MD), hot air drying (HAD, 40 °C, 60 °C, 80 °C, 100 °C), and freeze drying (FD), alter the flavonoid composition of freshly-harvested SJF and SJFB. The flavonoid content of dried samples was determined by Ultra High Performance Liquid Chromatography-Diode Array Detector (UPLC-DAD). Overall, different drying techniques had significantly different effects on the RU content, ranging from 10.63 % (HAD-80 °C) to 34.13 % (HAD-100 °C) in SJF and from 18.91 % (HAD-100 °C) to 29.16 % (HAD-40 °C) and 30.53 % (SD) in SJFB. To clarify the mechanism by which drying affects the RU content of S. japonicum flowers, we studied the activity of a rutin-hydrolyzing enzyme (RHE) isolated from SJF and SJFB using multiple separation and assay methods. According to the Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate-Polyacrylamide Gel Electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) results, the apparent molecular weight of the purified RHE was approximately 38 kDa. According to UPLC-DAD, RHE catalyzes the production of quercetin (QU) from rutin (RU), but not from other flavonoid glycosides. Drying fresh SJF and SJFB at low and high temperatures can inhibit RHE activity and prevent RU hydrolysis. Therefore, subjecting freshly-harvest SJF to HAD-100 °C, and freshly-harvest SJFB to SD or HAD-40 °C, can greatly increase the RU content. In particular, HAD is viable for large-scale application due to its simplicity and industrial feasibility.

Pemphigoid diseases in patients with end-stage kidney diseases: pathogenesis and treatment.

Background: Pemphigoid diseases constitute a group of autoimmune blistering disorders characterized by subepithelial blistering. The association between pemphigoid diseases and both end-stage kidney disease (ESKD) and its treatment is notable. However, there is limited evidence about the management of pemphigoid diseases in patients with ESKD. This systematic review compiled case reports and relevant studies, summarized the underlying mechanisms of pemphigoid diseases in patients with ESKD, and summarized the efficacy of various therapies. Methods: A systematic search of PubMed and Embase was performed for articles published between 1982 to June 2, 2024. Results: Fifty-three case reports and eight relevant studies were included. Triggers for pemphigoids in patients with ESKD included materials used to treat ESKD, immune dysregulation of patients with ESKD, and rejection of renal allograft. Treatment for these patients included removing triggers, as well as administering of corticosteroids, mycophenolate mofetil (MMF), tetracyclines, rituximab, methotrexate, dapsone, azathioprine, cyclosporine, intravenous immunoglobin (IVIG), plasmapheresis, and Janus kinase inhibitors. Conclusion: Removing triggers is the most effective strategy. Despite their suboptimal efficacy, corticosteroids remain the most commonly used agents in this patient population. MMF, tetracyclines, and rituximab are less used but with benefits. There are significant adverse effects associated with methotrexate treatment. Other treatment may also be beneficial and require further investigation. These findings may enable clinicians to optimize the therapeutic approach for these patients.

Gut Microbiome Dysbiosis in Patients with Pemphigus and Correlation with Pathogenic Autoantibodies.

BACKGROUND: Pemphigus is a group of potentially life-threatening autoimmune bullous diseases induced by pathogenic autoantibodies binding to the surface of epidermal cells. The role of the gut microbiota (GM) has been described in various autoimmune diseases. However, the impact of the GM on pemphigus is less understood. This study aimed to investigate whether there was alterations in the composition and function of the GM in pemphigus patients compared to healthy controls (HCs). METHODS: Fecal samples were collected from 20 patients with active pemphigus (AP), 11 patients with remission pemphigus (PR), and 47 HCs. To sequence the fecal samples, 16S rRNA was applied, and bioinformatic analyses were performed. RESULTS: We found differences in the abundance of certain bacterial taxa among the three groups. At the family level, the abundance of Prevotellaceae and Coriobacteriaceae positively correlated with pathogenic autoantibodies. At the genus level, the abundance of Klebsiella, Akkermansia, Bifidobacterium, Collinsella, Gemmiger, and Prevotella positively correlated with pathogenic autoantibodies. Meanwhile, the abundance of Veillonella and Clostridium_XlVa negatively correlated with pathogenic autoantibodies. A BugBase analysis revealed that the sum of potentially pathogenic bacteria was elevated in the AP group in comparison to the PR group. Additionally, the proportion of Gram-negative bacteria in the PR group was statistically significantly lower in comparison to the HC group. CONCLUSION: The differences in GM composition among the three groups, and the correlation between certain bacterial taxa and pathogenic autoantibodies of pemphigus, support a linkage between the GM and pemphigus.

Visible-Light-Induced Oxidative Decarboxylative Coupling of Phenylacetic Acid Derivatives Using SF6 as an Oxidant.

A visible-light-mediated decarboxylative coupling reaction of phenylacetic acid derivatives, featuring sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) as the oxidant, has been developed. This metal-free method allows for the synthesis of a series of bibenzyl derivatives and complex all-carbon skeletons, facilitating efficient utilization and degradation of the greenhouse gas SF6.

Factors influencing the outcomes of dermatoses during the COVID-19 outbreak in China: a retrospective study.

Background: The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic subverted people's lives and potentially affected the management and prognosis of pre-existing dermatoses. The study aims to identify factors influencing the outcomes of dermatoses during a rapid and widespread Omicron outbreak in China following the adjustment of the COVID-19 policy. Materials and methods: This retrospective observational study involved outpatients visiting the dermatology department at a tertiary referral hospital in Beijing, China between December 2022 and February 2023. Demographics, COVID-19 characteristics, treatment modalities, and dermatosis outcomes were subjected to statistical analysis. Results: The odds ratio (OR) for vitiligo aggravation during COVID-19 was 0.497 [95% confidence interval (CI): 0.254-0.973, p = 0.038] compared to total patients with various dermatoses. Psoriasis patients with a maximum body temperature (Tmax) over 38.6°C during COVID-19 were 2.833 times more likely to experience dermatosis aggravation (OR: 2.833 [1.029-7.803], p = 0.041). Moreover, autoimmune bullous disease (AIBD) patients receiving biologics treatment exhibited a reduced likelihood of aggravation during the COVID-19 outbreak (OR: 0 [0-0.531], p = 0.011). Conclusion: Vitiligo exhibits lower aggravation rates during COVID-19 than other dermatoses. A higher body temperature during COVID-19 infection can increase the risk of psoriasis aggravation. Biologics treatment reduces the risk of AIBD aggravation during the COVID-19 outbreak.

Hydrothermal regulation of MnO2 on a wood-based RGO composite for achieving wide voltage windows and high energy density supercapacitors.

The increasing need for improved energy storage devices renders it particularly important that inexpensive electrodes with high capacitance, excellent cycling stability, and environment-friendly characteristics are developed. In this study, a wood-derived carbon@reduced graphene (WRG) conductive precursor with an average conductivity of 15.38 S/m was firstly synthesized. The binder-free WRG-MnO2 electrode was successfully constructed by growing MnO2 onto a WRG under hydrothermal conditions. The asymmetric supercapacitor assembled with the WRG-20MnO2 cathode exhibited excellent electrochemical capacitive behavior with a voltage window of 0-2 V, maximum energy density of 52.3 Wh kg-1, and maximum power density of 1642.7 W kg-1, which is mainly due to the distinctive icicle-shaped structure of the MnO2. Thus, a facile strategy for developing high-performance hierarchical porous carbon electrodes that can be used in supercapacitors was developed herein, which may provide new opportunities to improve the high added value of poplar wood.

Comparison of gut microbiota dysbiosis between pemphigus vulgaris and bullous pemphigoid.

OBJECTIVE: Pemphigus vulgaris (PV) and bullous pemphigoid (BP) are two prevalent bullous diseases. Previous studies found that the antibodies of BP could be expressed in the intestinal epithelium and BP was tightly related to inflammatory bowel disease. Therefore, gut microbiota might also play an important role in bullous disease. However, the specific relationship between gut microbiota and bullous diseases remains unknown. Our study aimed to investigate the potential role of gut microbiota in the development and progression of different bullous diseases. METHODS: We conducted a prospective and observational cohort study at Peking Union Medical College Hospital. Untreated BP and PV patients were recruited, along with healthy controls (HC) who were spouses or caregivers of these patients. Fecal samples were collected, followed by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. Bioinformatics analyses were performed to assess the composition and function of gut microbiota. RESULTS: A total of 38 HC, 32 BP, and 19 PV patients were enrolled in this study. Compared to HC, BP, and PV exhibited a distinct gut microbiota composition, especially BP. The gut microbiota changes were mainly observed in the phylum Bacteroidetes, Firmicutes, and Proteobacteria. The ratio of Faecalibacterium to Escherichia-Shigella (F/E ratio) had a considerable predictive value (AUC: 0.705) for recognizing BP from PV. The levels of Faecalibacterium and Enterobacter were correlated to the anti-BP 180 and anti-desmoglein 3. Microbial functional prediction revealed elevated activity in pathways related to gut microbiota translocation significantly increased in BP patients, indicating a potential pathogenetic role in BP. CONCLUSIONS: Our study suggests that the composition of gut microbiota is specific in different bullous diseases and the role of gut microbiota differs. Gut microbiota could help distinguish BP and PV, and might play a role in the pathogenesis of different bullous diseases.

Identification of gut microbiota dysbiosis in bullous pemphigoid under different disease activity.

Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is a severe autoimmune blistering disease affecting patients' quality of life. Gut microbiota (GM) dysbiosis have been investigated to be associated with multiple autoimmune diseases. However, the relationship between GM and BP onset and remission remains to be established by a systematic study. We conducted a study that enrolled 24 patients with BP onset (BP group), 24 patients under remission stage (BP-R group) and 24 healthy controls (HC group). We applied 16S rRNA sequencing on faecal samples and revealed a separation of the microbiota structure. At the family level, Lachnospiraceae, Prevotellaceae and Veillonellaceae were more abundant in the HC and BP-R groups, while Bacteroidaceae, Ruminococcaceae and Enterobacteriaceae were more abundant in the BP group. Bugbase analysis revealed the potentially pathogenic bacteria had an increasing trend in the BP group compared with the HC group and this variation vanished in the BP-R group. At the amplicon sequence variants (ASV) level, Bacteroides ovatus (ASV40) and Veillonella dispar (ASV140) significantly decreased, while Prevotella copri (ASV54) increased in the BP group compared to the HC and BP-R groups. The HC group and BP-R group shared similar abundance. Furthermore, by correlation analysis, we investigated key ASVs correlated with clinical parameters and found some discriminate biomarkers between the BP and BP-R groups. Our study established a dynamic GM profile in BP patients under different disease activity, providing a new direction to understand the role of GM in BP pathogenesis and therapeutic effects.

Interactome between ASFV and host immune pathway proteins.

IMPORTANCE: African swine fever (ASF), caused by African swine fever virus (ASFV), has become a major crisis for the pork industry in recent years. The mechanism for ASFV pathology and the clinical symptoms difference of ASF between domestic pigs and reservoir hosts remain to be elucidated. We deciphered the comprehensive protein-protein interaction (PPI) network between ASFV and host immune pathways. The intensive PPI network contained both ASFV-host immune pathway PPI and ASFV-ASFV PPI information, providing a comprehensive ASFV-host interaction landscape. Furthermore, the ASFV-host PPI difference between domestic pigs and warthogs was explored, which will be instructive for exploring essential candidates involved in ASFV pathology. Moreover, we screened the inhibitory effect of ASFV proteins in the PPI with cGAS-STING pathway on IFN-I and NF-κB, further providing possible functions of ASFV-host PPI network in innate immune regulation.

Fungal-Algal Association Drives Lichens' Mutualistic Symbiosis: A Case Study with Trebouxia-Related Lichens.

Biotic and abiotic factors influence the formation of fungal-algal pairings in lichen symbiosis. However, the specific determinants of these associations, particularly when distantly related fungi are involved, remain poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the impact of different drivers on the association patterns between taxonomically diverse lichenized fungi and their trebouxioid symbiotic partners. We collected 200 samples from four biomes and identified 41 species of lichenized fungi, associating them with 16 species of trebouxioid green algae, of which 62% were previously unreported. The species identity of both the fungal and algal partners had the most significant effect on the outcome of the symbiosis, compared to abiotic factors like climatic variables and geographic distance. Some obviously specific associations were observed in the temperate zone; however, the nestedness value was lower in arid regions than in cold, polar, and temperate regions according to interaction network analysis. Cophylogenetic analyses revealed congruent phylogenies between trebouxioid algae and associated fungi, indicating a tendency to reject random associations. The main evolutionary mechanisms contributing to the observed phylogenetic patterns were "loss" and "failure to diverge" of the algal partners. This study broadens our knowledge of fungal-algal symbiotic patterns in view of Trebouxia-associated fungi.

Dupilumab effectively and rapidly treats bullous pemphigoid by inhibiting the activities of multiple cell types.

Background: Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is an autoimmune skin-blistering disease. Systemic corticosteroids remain the first line treatment for moderate-to-severe BP with the potential for severe adverse events. Dupilumab has emerged as an alternative option for BP patients. Objective: We evaluated the efficiency and safety of dupilumab on BP treatment and explored a mode of drug action in depth. Methods and results: A multicenter retrospective cohort included 20 BP patients who received dupilumab with or without systemic corticosteroid in dupilumab group, and 20 matched BP patients who received corticosteroid alone in conventional group. Serum samples were collected from 20 patients (10 from dupilumab group and 10 from conventional group) at baseline and week 4. Compared to systemic corticosteroid alone, dupilumab with or without systemic corticosteroid was similarly efficacious in clinical remission at week4 (complete remission plus partial remission: 100%) and week24 (complete remission plus partial remission:100%), but allowing significant decreases in the cumulative doses of corticosteroids with reducing the incidence of adverse events. However, dupilumab did not decrease BP180 antibody despite an obvious clinical improvement. Comparative plasma proteomic analysis performed before and after treatment in 3 BP patients from dupilumab group revealed that drug use was associated with 30 differentially expressed proteins, including 26 down-regulated and 4 up-regulated proteins. The former consisted of immune related proteins involved in T/B cell interactions (inducible T-cell co-stimulator ligand, ICOSL) and in the activation of eosinophils (PRG2), mast cells (S100A12), and complement (CR2). TARC and ICOSL levels correlated with BP severity in patients who received either dupilumab or conventional treatment. Conclusion: Dupilumab has similar efficacy in treating BP as conventional drugs, by inhibiting the activities of many types of immune cells and complement, and regulating the interactions between T and B cells.

Successful treatment of alopecia universalis with abrocitinib: a case report.

Abrocitinib, a highly selective inhibitor of Janus kinase 1 (JAK1), has been approved for the treatment of moderate-to-severe atopic dermatitis (AD). Patients with alopecia universalis (AU) co-morbid with AD receiving abrocitinib achieved clinical remission for both diseases. We report a case of a patient with AU after drug reaction with eosinophilia and systemic symptoms (DRESS) who responded well to abrocitinib therapy at a dose of 100 and 200 mg once daily. In addition, we reviewed cases of alopecia after DRESS and explored the underlying mechanisms for alopecia areata (AA) being an autoimmune sequela. The therapeutic effects of JAK inhibitors for AA may involve downstream cytokines, such as IFN-γ and IL-15. Abrocitinib may be a promising therapeutic option for recalcitrant AU.

Anti-interleukin 4 receptor α antibody for the treatment of Chinese bullous pemphigoid patients with diverse comorbidities and a 1-year follow-up: a monocentric real-world study.

Background: Bullous pemphigoid (BP) is a common subepidermal bullous disorder that lacks adequate treatment alternatives. Dupilumab, an anti-interleukin (IL) 4 receptor α antibody blocking Th2 molecules IL-4 and 13, has been used off-label and shown to be effective in refractory BP cases. Methods: BP patients with various disease severities and comorbidities were included in this case series. All patients received dupilumab alone or in combination with immunosuppressants in a real-world setting. Complete remission (CR) was defined as the absence of pruritus symptoms and previous BP eruptions, with only hyperpigmentation patches and without newly occurring lesions for at least 4 weeks. Disease relapse was classified as the appearance of three or more new lesions within 1 month or at least one large urticarial or eczematous lesion that did not resolve within a week. Findings: Ten individuals were enrolled in this case series. Pruritus symptoms and BP eruptions improved significantly in nine patients (90%). Seven patients (70%) attained CR, including all mild-to-moderate (100%) cases and three of six (50%) severe BP cases. At the dupilumab monotherapy stage, eosinophilia was observed in two severe cases. One patient out of seven (14.3%) relapsed after 1 year of follow-up after CR. Conclusion: Treatment of BP with diverse comorbidities with anti-IL-4 receptor α antibody provides further credentials to a prospective randomized study. More impressive efficacy and safety profiles were observed in patients with mild-to-moderate disease after 1 year of follow-up. Eosinophilia may occur in patients receiving dupilumab monotherapy.

Gut microbiota and metabolome in sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease.

BACKGROUND: Gut dysbiosis and the resulting changes in the metabolites have been associated with neurological diseases. However, the relationship between the gut microbiota and sporadic Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (sCJD) need to be clarified. The aim of this study was to evaluate the changes in the composition of gut microbiota and metabolome accompanying sCJD, and determine their correlation with disease severity. METHODS: Fecal samples were collected from 25 sCJD patients and 23 healthy controls. The composition of the fecal microbiota and metabolites was respectively analyzed by 16S ribosomal RNA sequencing and untargeted metabolomics. The correlation of gut microbiota and metabolites with MMSE, MoCA and MRC scores was analyzed. RESULTS: The sCJD patients showed significant differences in the composition of gut microbiota and metabolites relative to the healthy controls. Several bacteria taxa in sCJD patients were increased at genus level, such as Turicibacter, norank_f_Christensenellaceae, Eisenbergiella, Bilophila and Holdemania. A total of 547 differential metabolites were identified between these two groups (VIP > 1, FDR p < 0.05). As per KEGG analysis, the metabolites related to the biosynthesis of phenylpropanoids, especially biochanin A, showed the most obvious decrease in the sCJD group. In addition, most metabolites involved in the pathways related to linoleic acid metabolism and steroid hormone biosynthesis were associated with MRC scale. CONCLUSION: Our findings provide new insights into the relationship between gut microbiota and metabolites and sCJD. Some compounds, especially those related to the biosynthesis of phenylpropanoids were significantly altered in patients with sCJD, and those related to linoleic acid metabolism and steroid hormone biosynthesis might be biomarkers of evaluating disease severity.

Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection in patients with autoimmune bullous diseases in China.

Patients with autoimmune bullous diseases (AIBDs) are considered to be immunocompromised and, consequently, they may be more susceptible to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection and have poorer outcomes. However, the risk and repercussions of SARS-CoV-2 infection in patients with AIBDs have not been fully understood. Therefore, we aimed to investigate the risk factors of SARS-CoV-2 infection and the impact of SARS-CoV-2 on patients with AIBDs. From December 2022 to January 2023, all patients with AIBDs who visited our clinic were enrolled in this study. Meanwhile, web-based questionnaires and telesurveys were used as supplements. Information about patients' demographics, comorbidities, SARS-CoV-2 infection, and vaccination, as well as AIBD status and treatments were collected and analyzed. The diagnosis of SARS-CoV-2 infection was based on a positive polymerase chain reaction test, and/or an antigen test, or the presence of typical symptoms in conjunction with an epidemiological history. Finally, 95 patients with AIBDs were enrolled, including 47 cases of pemphigus and 48 cases of pemphigoid cases, and 73 had symptoms consistent with coronavirus disease 2019. Common symptoms after SARS-CoV-2 infection were fever (80.8%), fatigue (75.0%), cough (71.2%), muscle/joint pain (49.3%), and sore throat (45.2%). No significant differences were found between SARS-CoV-2-infected and asymptomatic patients. Patients who had hypertension (p = 0.034), hyperlipidemia (p = 0.017), or more than two comorbidities (p = 0.011) were more likely to develop pneumonia after infection. Patients with pemphigus who did not achieve disease control (p = 0.045) or had an oral corticosteroid dose ≥15 mg/day (p = 0.024) and patients with pemphigoid with a disease duration ≥2 years (p = 0.037) were more prone to AIBDs aggravation. In conclusion, patients with AIBDs are generally susceptible to SARS-CoV-2 infection. Individuals with newly diagnosed AIBDs, uncontrolled disease, and a higher corticosteroid dose are more susceptible to disease exacerbation.

Nickel-Catalyzed Hydrotrifluoroalkylation of Alkynes to Construct Allylic Trifluoromethyl Terminal Alkenes.

Herein, we describe a nickel-catalyzed hydrotrifluoroalkylation of terminal alkyne for the synthesis of a manifold allylic trifluoromethyl terminal alkene. The combination of nitrogen and phosphine ligands, especially electron-rich ones, plays an indispensable role in the course of the reaction, promoting the reactivity to a remarkable level, demonstrating high efficiency, broad substrate scope, and favorable functional group compatibility. The strategy provides a facile method for the synthesis of diversified allylic CF3-containing drugs and bioactive molecules.

Ratiometric fluorescence assay for sulfide ions with fluorescent MOF-based nanozyme.

A novel ratiometric fluorescence strategy for sulfide ions (S2-) analysis has been developed using metal-organic framework (MOF)-based nanozyme. NH2-Cu-MOF displays blue fluorescence (λem = 435 nm) originating from 2-amino-1,4-benzenedicarboxylic acid ligand. Besides, it possesses oxidase-like activity due to Cu2+ node, which can trigger chromogenic reaction. o-Phenylenediamine (OPD), as a common enzyme substrate, can be oxidized by NH2-Cu-MOF to form luminescent products (oxOPD) (λem = 570 nm). Inner filter effect occurs between oxOPD and MOF. Upon exposure to S2-, oxidase-like activity of MOF is depressed significantly because of the generation of CuS. On one hand, the amount of free Cu2+ decreases, affecting the yielding of oxOPD. On the other hand, CuNPs with larger size are obtained during the oxidation-reduction reaction between Cu2+ and OPD, which show weaker autocatalytic ability for OPD oxidation. These result in the decrease and increase of intensities at 570 and 435 nm, respectively. This method exhibits sensitive and selective responses towards S2- with LOD of 0.1 µM. Furthermore, such ratiometric strategy has been applied to detect S2- in food samples.

Clinical Correlates of Cerebrospinal Fluid 14-3-3 Protein in Non-Prion Rapid Progressive Dementia.

BACKGROUND: The 14-3-3 protein in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a suitable biomarker for the diagnosis of Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease (CJD). However, it has also been detected in various non-prion-related rapidly progressive dementia (RPD), which affected its diagnostic performance and clinical utilization. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the general disease distribution with positive 14-3-3 result and to evaluate the association between CSF 14-3-3 protein and the clinical features in patients with non-prion RPD. METHODS: A total of 150 patients with non-prion RPD were enrolled. The clinical data were collected and CSF 14-3-3 test was performed for all patients. The distribution of various diseases with a positive 14-3-3 result was analyzed and the association of CSF 14-3-3 with clinical features was tested. RESULTS: The CSF 14-3-3 protein was detected in 23.3% of non-prion RPD patients, and the most frequent diagnoses were autoimmune encephalitis (22.9%) and neurodegenerative disease (22.9%). CSF 14-3-3 protein was more common in older patients (p = 0.028) and those presenting myoclonus (p = 0.008). In subgroup analysis, the positive 14-3-3 test was more common in neurodegenerative disease with a long time from the symptom onset to CSF 14-3-3 test (p = 0.014). CONCLUSION: CSF 14-3-3 protein could be detected in a broad spectrum of non-prion RPD. In particular, patients with autoimmune encephalitis and rapidly progressive neurodegenerative diseases and those with myoclonus have a greater likelihood of a positive 14-3-3 result. These results could help clinicians interpret the results of CSF 14-3-3 protein more reasonably.

Ratiometric fluorescence sensing of formaldehyde in food samples based on bifunctional MOF.

A new fluorescence strategy was described for ratiometric sensing of formaldehyde (FA) with bifunctional MOF, which acted as a fluorescence reporter as well as biomimetic peroxidase. With the assistance of H2O2, NH2-MIL-101 (Fe) catalyzes the oxidation of non-luminescent substrate o-phenylenediamine (OPD) to produce fluorescent product (oxOPD) with the maximum emission at 570 nm. Besides, intrinsic fluorescence of MOF (λem = 445 nm) was quenched by oxOPD through inner filter effect (IFE). However, FA and OPD reacted to generate Schiff bases, which competitively consumed OPD inhibiting the generation of oxOPD. Under the excitation wavelength of 375 nm, a ratiometric strategy was designed to detect FA with the fluorescence intensity ratio at 445 nm and 570 nm (F445/F570) as readout signal. This strategy exhibited a wide linear range (0.1-50 µM) and low detection limit of 0.03 µM. This method was confirmed for FA detection in food samples. In addition to establishing a new method to detect FA, this work will open new applications of MOF in food safety.
