RESUMEN

The intercalation structure of two-dimensional materials with expanded interlayer distance can facilitate mass transport, which is promising in fast-charging lithium-ion batteries (LIBs). However, the designed intercalation structures will be pulverized and destroyed under tough working conditions, causing overall performance deterioration of the batteries. Here, we present that an intercalated heterostructure made of the typical layered material of MoS2 intercalated by N-doped graphene-like carbon monolayer (MoS2/g-CM) through a polymer intercalation strategy exhibits a unique behavior of reversible reconstructability as an LIB anode during cycling. A mechanism of "carbon monolayers-confined topotactic transformation" is proposed, which is evidenced by substantial in/ex situ characterizations. The intercalated heterostructure of MoS2/g-CM featuring a reconstructable property and efficient interlayer electron/ion transport exhibits an unprecedented rate capability up to 50 A g-1 and outstanding long cyclability. Moreover, the proposed strategy based on g-CM intercalation has been extended to the MoSe2 system, also realizing reconstructability of the intercalated heterostructure and improved LIB performance, demonstrating its versatility and great potential in applications.

RESUMEN

Acupuncture has been proven an effective clinical treatment for numerous pathological conditions and malfunctions. However, substantial anatomical evidence for acupuncture points (APs) and meridians is still lacking, so the location of APs is relatively subjective and understanding of the biological mechanisms of acupuncture is limited. All these problems hinder the clinical applications and worldwide acceptance of acupuncture. Our long-term microsurgery experience has indicated that Perforating Cutaneous Vessels (PCVs) are highly relevant to APs but the anatomical evidence is insufficient. To address this lack, two specimens of fresh adult human upper limbs were dissected using an advanced vascular perfusion-fixation method and then examined. The results show that all 30 five-Shu APs in the upper limbs have corresponding PCVs. Both specimens showed a 100% coincidence rate between APs and PCVs, indicating that PCVs could be critical anatomical features of APs. This study also provides an anatomical basis for locating APs objectively via preliminary detection of PCVs. The findings could lead to a better theoretical understanding of mechanisms of acupuncture and the essence of meridians.

RESUMEN

The colloidal stability, one of the basic and important properties of a colloidal dispersion, is commonly evaluated in terms of the stability ratio. In this study, a recently developed expression for the stability ratio is updated, by reformulating the fraction of successful collisions leading to secondary minimum coagulation. The updated formula reinterprets the statistical meaning of the fraction of successful collisions leading to primary or secondary minimum coagulation, ensuring that the total fraction of successful collisions is always less than or equals to 1. It was shown to be superior to the available expressions in accounting for the contribution of the primary and secondary minimum coagulations on the stability ratio. It can well interpret the stability of colloidal dispersions of spherical particles; moreover, it is of great potential to be applied to colloidal dispersions of plate-like particles. In addition, this formula is found to be consistent with the concept of the critical coagulation concentration and well interpret the effects of particle size, counterion valence, surface potential, and Hamaker constant on the colloidal stability.

RESUMEN

To optimize the extraction process of Chuanxiong Rhizoma-Gastrodiae Rhizoma herb pair by network pharmacology combined with analytic hierarchy process(AHP)-entropy weight method and multi-index orthogonal test. The potential active components and targets of Chuanxiong Rhizoma-Gastrodiae Rhizoma were screened by network pharmacology and molecular docking, and the process evaluation indexes were determined with reference to the Chinese Pharmacopoeia(2020 edition). The core components of Chuanxiong Rhizoma-Gastrodiae Rhizoma were determined as gastrodin, parishin B, parishin C, parishin E, ferulic acid, and 3-butylphthalide. With the extraction volume of each indicator and yield of dry extract as comprehensive evaluation indicators, the extraction conditions were optimized by the AHP-entropy weight method and orthogonal test as the ethanol volume of 50%, the solid-liquid ratio of 1∶8(g·mL~(-1)), extraction for three times, and 1.5 h each time. Through network pharmacology and molecular docking, the process evaluation index was determined, and the optimized process was stable and reproducible for the extraction of Chuanxiong Rhizoma-Gastrodiae Rhizoma herb pair, which could provide reference for in-depth research.

RESUMEN

The stability of a colloidal dispersion has long been expressed in terms of the stability ratio. Based on the available theories of coagulation of colloidal dispersions, a novel expression, complying with the classical definition, is developed for the stability ratio. It accounts for the contributions of both primary and secondary minimum coagulations to the overall rate of coagulations. In addition, it can also be regarded as the result of a combination of the kinetic theory of an ideal gas and the Smoluchowski theory with Fuchs' correction, considering the interaction between identical spherical particles and their surfaces immersed in a symmetrical electrolyte solution. The agreement with experimental data suggested that it is superior to the classical ones in describing the weak dependence of the stability ratio on the particle size and the valence of the counterion, by emphasizing the importance of the secondary minimum coagulation in dispersion stability and the complementation between the two modes of coagulation.

RESUMEN

Hydroxylated polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (OH-PAHs) can bind to serum albumin and influence their distribution and elimination in organisms. Here, multispectral analysis and molecular docking methods were used to investigate the binding mechanism of two OH-PAHs, 1-hydroxyphenanthrene (1-OHPhe) and 9-hydroxyphenanthrene (9-OHPhe), with two homologous serum albumins, human serum albumin (HSA) and bovine serum albumin (BSA). The quenching constants of HSA with 1-OHPhe and 9-OHPhe were much larger than those for BSA. Energy transfer from the tryptophan (Trp) residues in HSA to 1-OHPhe and 9-OHPhe was more probable than from Trp in BSA. The interactions of 1-OHPhe and 9-OHPhe with Trp in HSA and BSA altered the microenvironment of Trp. Molecular docking results revealed that the binding modes and binding forces of 1-OHPhe and 9-OHPhe with HSA and BSA were different. The two OH-PAHs were used as fluorescent probes to analyze the microenvironmental hydrophobicities of HSA and BSA, which were distinctly different. The structural difference between HSA and BSA induced significant variations in their binding behaviour with 1-OHPhe and 9-OHPhe. Moreover, HSA was more susceptible to 1-OHPhe and 9-OHPhe than BSA. This work suggests that the differences between the two serum albumins should be considered in related studies.

RESUMEN

An economical and eco-friendly hydrothermal method for the preparation of nitrogen-doped carbon quantum dots (N-CQDs) was studied with rambutan peel and lysine. The morphology, structure, and optical properties of N-CQDs were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, X-ray powder diffractometer, X-ray photoelectron spectrometry, and UV spectrophotometry. The synthesized N-CQDs have excellent characteristics such as strong fluorescence, good dispersion, high stability, and excellent water solubility. The absolute fluorescence quantum yield is 1.02%, the average particle size is 1.63 nm, and the maximum excitation wavelength is 340 nm. The maximum emission wavelengths are 430 nm and 800 nm. As a quencher, lornoxicam (LNX) was used to quench the fluorescence of N-CQDs with the mechanism of inner filter effect. The fluorescence ratio of N-CQDs (F430/F800) shows a good linear relationship to the concentration of LNX. The linear range and the detection limit of LNX are 0.01‒100 and 0.003 µmol/L, respectively. An effective ratiometric fluorescence probe for the detection of LNX was constructed. The method has the advantages of low detection limit, high sensitivity, wide linear range, and can be applied to the determination of LNX in real samples. Moreover, according to the excitation-dependent fluorescence behavior, dual-wavelength emission, and biocompatibility of N-CQDs, it has been applied to cell imaging.

RESUMEN

An efficient electrochemiluminescence resonance energy transfer (ECL-RET) method is proposed which combines the luminescent materials of tris(4,4'-dicarboxylicacid-2,2'-bipyridyl) ruthenium(II) (energy donor) and tin dioxide and tin disulfide quantum dots (SnO2/SnS2QDs) (energy acceptor) into the isoreticular metal - organic framework-3 (IRMOF-3) material to form a composite. In this mode, the distance between the energy donor and the acceptor was greatly shortened, reducing the energy loss, and thereby effectively improving RET efficiency and further significantly improving the ECL signal. The obtained composite (SnO2/SnS2QDs-Ru@IRMOF-3) was combined with sandwich immunoreaction to construct an ECL immunosensor for the sensitive detection of procalcitonin (PCT). Under the optimized experimental conditions with a working potential of - 1.48 V (vs Ag/AgCl), the proposed PCT biosensor exhibited a linear concentration range of 1 × 10-4-200 ng mL-1, with a detection limit of 0.029 pg mL-1 (S/N = 3). The biosensor was used to detect PCT in actual samples. The biosensor has broad application prospects in biological analysis and clinical diagnosis due to its high sensitivity, good selectivity, and good stability.

RESUMEN

This study determined the extraction rates of indirubin in Indigo Naturalis by ethanol reflux extraction method and water extraction method. The pharmacodynamic study against cough induced by ammonia water in the mouse model and the cough induced by citric acid in the guinea pig model were performed to optimize the extraction process of the sovereign medicinal Indigo Naturalis and the whole prescription of Children's Qingfei Zhisou Syrup. The extraction rate of indirubin by the ethanol reflux method was 51.89%, and indirubin was not detected in the product of water extraction. Two samples of Children's Qingfei Zhisou Syrup prepared with different methods can prolong the incubation period of cough and suppress the frequency of coughs in pharmacodynamic experiments. In terms of prolonging the incubation period of cough, the two samples prepared with different methods had no significant difference. In terms of reducing the frequency of coughs, the high-dose Five kinds of ethanol extracts such as indigo naturalis and three kinds of water extracts such as gypsum had better effect against the citric acid-induced cough of guinea pigs than other samples(P<0.05). The extraction rate of indirubin in Children's Qingfei Zhisou Syrup sample prepared with ethanol was higher than that with water. The two samples of Children's Qingfei Zhisou Syrup prepared with the two methods showed good antitussive effects. The sample prepared with 5 ingredients(including Indigo Naturalis) extracted with ethanol and 3 ingredients(including Gypsum Fibrosum) extracted with water had better alleviation effect on the citric acid-induced cough of guinea pig than the whole water extract sample. In conclusion, the optimum extraction scheme is ethanol extraction for 5 ingredients including Indigo Naturalis in combination with water extraction for 3 ingredients including Gypsum Fibrosum, and the Children's Qingfei Zhisou Syrup produced in this manner has better antitussive efficacy.

RESUMEN

This paper presents a mid-infrared dimethyl sulfide (CH3SCH3, DMS) sensor based on tunable laser absorption spectroscopy with a distributed feedback interband cascade laser to measure DMS in the atmosphere. Different from previous work, in which only DMS was tested and under pure nitrogen conditions, we measured DMS mixed by common air to establish the actual atmospheric measurement environment. Moreover, we used tunable laser absorption spectroscopy with spectral fitting to enable multi-species (i.e., DMS, CH4, and H2O) measurement simultaneously. Meanwhile, we used empirical mode decomposition and greatly reduced the interference of optical fringes and noise. The sensor performances were evaluated with atmospheric mixture in laboratory conditions. The sensor's measurement uncertainties of DMS, CH4, and H2O were as low as 80 ppb, 20 ppb, and 0.01% with an integration time 1 s, respectively. The sensor possessed a very low detection limit of 9.6 ppb with an integration time of 164 s for DMS, corresponding to an absorbance of 7.4 × 10-6, which showed a good anti-interference ability and stable performance after optical interference removal. We demonstrated that the sensor can be used for DMS measurement, as well as multi-species atmospheric measurements of DMS, H2O, and CH4 simultaneously.

RESUMEN

Imprecise measurements present universally due to variability in the measurement error. We devised a very simple membership function to evaluate fuzzily the quality of optical sensing with a small dataset, where a normal distribution cannot be assumed. The proposed membership function was further used as a weighting function for non-linear curve fitting under expected mathematical model constraints, namely the membership function-weighted Levenberg⁻Marquardt (MFW-LM) algorithm. The robustness and effectiveness of the MFW-LM algorithm were demonstrated by an optical-sensing simulation and two practical applications. (1) In laser-absorption spectroscopy, molecular spectral line modeling was greatly improved by the method. The measurement uncertainty of temperature and pressure were reduced dramatically, by 53.3% and 43.5%, respectively, compared with the original method. (2) In imaging, a laser beam-profile reconstruction from heavy distorted observations was improved by the method. As the dynamic range of the infrared camera increased from 256 to 415, the detailed resolution of the laser-beam profiles increased by an amazing 360%, achieving high dynamic-range imaging to capture optical signal details. Therefore, the MFW-LM algorithm provides a robust and effective tool for fitting a proper physical model and precision parameters from low-quality data.

RESUMEN

Magnetic abrasive finishing (MAF) is an efficient finishing process method using magnetic abrasive particles (MAPs) as finishing tools. In this study, two iron-based alumina magnetic abrasives with different particle size ranges were synthesized by the plasma molten metal powder and powder jetting method. Characterization of the magnetic abrasives in terms of microscopic morphology, phase composition, magnetic permeability, particle size distribution, and abrasive ability shows that the magnetic abrasives are spherical in shape, that the hard abrasives are combined in the surface layer of the iron matrix and remain sharp, and that the hard abrasives combined in the surface layer of the magnetic abrasives with smaller particle sizes are sparser than those of the magnetic abrasives with larger particle sizes. The magnetic abrasives are composed of α-Fe and Al2O3; the magnetic permeability of the magnetic abrasives having smaller particle sizes is slightly higher than that of the magnetic abrasives having larger particle sizes; the two magnetic abrasives are distributed in a range of different particle sizes; the magnetic abrasives have different magnetic permeabilities, which are higher than those of the larger ones; both magnetic abrasives are distributed in the range of smaller particle sizes; and AZ31B alloy can obtain smaller surface roughness of the workpiece after the grinding process of the magnetic abrasives with a small particle size.

RESUMEN

Thermoregulatory textiles, leveraging high-emissivity structural materials, have arisen as a promising candidate for personal cooling management; however, their advancement has been hindered by the underperformed water moisture transportation capacity, which impacts on their thermophysiological comfort. Herein, we designed a wettability-gradient-induced-diode (WGID) membrane achieving by MXene-engineered electrospun technology, which could facilitate heat dissipation and moisture-wicking transportation. As a result, the obtained WGID membrane could obtain a cooling temperature of 1.5 °C in the "dry" state, and 7.1 °C in the "wet" state, which was ascribed to its high emissivity of 96.40% in the MIR range, superior thermal conductivity of 0.3349 W m-1 K-1 (based on radiation- and conduction-controlled mechanisms), and unidirectional moisture transportation property. The proposed design offers an approach for meticulously engineering electrospun membranes with enhanced heat dissipation and moisture transportation, thereby paving the way for developing more efficient and comfortable thermoregulatory textiles in a high-humidity microenvironment.

RESUMEN

Developing new cathode materials to avoid shuttle effect of Li-S batteries at source is crucial for practical high-energy applications, which, however, remains a great challenge. Herein, a new class of sulfur-containing ternary covalent inorganic framework (CIF), P4 Se6 S40 , is explored, by simply comelting powders of P, S, and Se. The P4 Se6 S40 CIF with open framework enables all active sites available during electrochemical reactions, giving a high capacity delivery. Moreover, introducing Se atoms can improve intrinsic electronic conductivity of S chains yet without remarkably compromising the capacity because Se is also electrochemical active to lithium storage. More importantly, Se atoms in S-Se chains can serve as a heteroatom barrier to block the bonding of S atoms around, effectively avoiding the formation of long-chain polysulfides during cycling. Besides, stable Li3 PS4 with a tetrahedral configuration formed after lithiation works as not only a good ionic conductor to promote Li ion diffusion, but a three-dimensional spatial barrier and chemical anchor to suppress the dissolution and diffusion of lithium polysulfides (LiPS), further inhibiting the shuttle effect. Consequently, the P4 Se6 S40 cathode delivers high capacity and excellent capacity retention with even a high loading of 10.5 mg cm-2 which far surpasses the requirement for commercial applications.

RESUMEN

The emerging field of wearable electronics requires power sources that are flexible, lightweight, high-capacity, durable, and comfortable for daily use, which enables extensive use in electronic skins, self-powered sensing, and physiological health monitoring. In this work, we developed the core-shell and biocompatible Cs2InCl5(H2O)@PVDF-HFP nanofibers (CIC@HFP NFs) by one-step electrospinning assisted self-assembly method for triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs). By adopting lead-free Cs2InCl5(H2O) as an inducer, CIC@HFP NFs exhibited ß-phase-enhanced and self-aligned nanocrystals within the uniaxial direction. The interface interaction was further investigated by experimental measurements and molecular dynamics, which revealed that the hydrogen bonds between Cs2InCl5(H2O) and PVDF-HFP induced automatically well-aligned dipoles and stabilized the ß-phase in the CIC@HFP NFs. The TENG fabricated using CIC@HFP NFs and nylon-6,6 NFs exhibited significant improvement in output voltage (681 V), output current (53.1 µA) and peak power density (6.94 W m-2), with the highest reported output performance among TENGs based on halide-perovskites. The energy harvesting and self-powered monitoring performance were further substantiated by human motions, showcasing its ability to charge capacitors and effectively operate electronics such as commercial LEDs, stopwatches, and calculators, demonstrating its promising application in biomechanical energy harvesting and self-powered sensing.

RESUMEN

Granite, as the natural barrier for the disposal of high-level radioactive waste, plays an important role in ensuring environmental and public safety. The safety assessment of the repository depends on the reliable migration parameters of radionuclides in granite. In this study, we developed a kinetic adsorption-advection-dispersion model based on first-order adsorption kinetics. It introduces a first-order adsorption rate coefficient to describe the kinetics of adsorption process and accounts for other crucial mechanisms affecting the migration of radionuclide ions, namely, the electromigration, electroosmosis, and dispersion. This model is then applied to interpret the experimental results of electromigration of tracer ions in intact granite. The results show that for the weakly adsorbed radionuclides studied, iodide and selenite, the effective diffusion coefficients and formation factors calculated by this model are in constant with those derived from the classical advection-dispersion model based on linear adsorption equilibrium. By contrast, for the moderately or strongly adsorbed tracer ions studied, including cobalt, cesium, and strontium, the migration parameters calculated by this model exhibit significantly less uncertainty than those obtained from the advection-dispersion model simulations. The advection-dispersion model based on the first order adsorption kinetics introduces the first order adsorption rate coefficient, and considers the influence of electromigration, electroosmosis and dispersion mechanism, which helps to explain the migration mechanism of nuclide ions in intact granite more accurately.

RESUMEN

OBJECTIVE: Cytokines are implicated in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis (OA), and this study aims to assess the therapeutic potential of an IL-8 neutralizing monoclonal antibody (mAb) for OA intervention. DESIGN: The study employed a rabbit model of OA induced by anterior cruciate ligament transection (ACLT) surgery to investigate the effects of an interleukin (IL)-8 neutralizing mAb, with hyaluronic acid (HA) used as a positive control. Primary outcomes assessed in the rabbits included cartilage repair, synovitis, joint effusion, changes in footprints, and lower limb loading conditions. RESULTS: Compared to HA, intra-articular injection of the IL-8 neutralizing mAb demonstrated a more pronounced attenuation of OA progression and enhancement of cartilage repair. We observed a reduction in synovitis and joint effusion, indications of bone marrow edema, as well as improvements in lower limb function. In knees treated with the neutralizing IL-8 mAb, there was a significant decrease in IL-8 levels within the synovial tissues. CONCLUSIONS: The IL-8 neutralizing mAb exhibits promising therapeutic potential in the management of OA by attenuating inflammation and facilitating cartilage repair. However, further investigations are warranted to comprehensively elucidate the underlying mechanisms, optimize treatment protocols, and ensure the long-term safety and efficacy of this innovative therapeutic approach.

RESUMEN

Significance: In recent years, the incidence rate of pulmonary embolism (PE) has increased dramatically. Currently, the correct diagnosis rate of PE in China is relatively low, and the diagnosis error rate and missed diagnosis rate were as high as about 80%. The most standard method of PE detection is pulmonary artery digital subtraction angiography (DSA), but pulmonary artery DSA is an invasive examination, and patients can have certain risks and discomfort. Noninvasive monitoring of PE remains challenging in cardiovascular medicine. Aim: We attempt to study the light propagation in human thoracic tissues and explore the possibility of near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) in noninvasive detection of PE. Approach: In this study, by utilizing the Monte Carlo simulation method for voxelized media and the Visible Chinese Human dataset, we quantified and visualized the photon migration in human thoracic region. The influence of the development (three levels) of PE on the light migration was observed. Results: Results showed that around 4.6% light fluence was absorbed by the pulmonary tissue. The maximum signal sensitivity distribution reached 0.073% at the 2.8- to 3.1-cm light source-detector separation. The normalized light intensity was significantly different among different PE levels and formed a linear relationship ( r 2 = 0.998 , p < 10 - 5 ). Conclusions: The study found that photons could reach the pulmonary artery tissue, the light intensity was linearly related to the degrees of embolism, PE could be quantitatively diagnosed by NIRS. Meanwhile, the optimized distance in between the light source and detector, 2.8 to 3.1 cm, was recommended to be used in future potential noninvasive optical diagnosis of PE.

RESUMEN

A composite material MnCO3/poly(diallyl dimethyl ammonium chloride) (PDDA)/Ag with excellent electrochemiluminescence (ECL) performance and high biocompatibility was prepared by adding MnCO3 and PDDA to silver nanoparticles (AgNPs). MnCO3/PDDA/Ag and Au@SiO2NPs were used as ECL donors and acceptors, respectively. Thus, an effective ECL-resonance energy transfer (RET) sensing platform was established. In a potassium persulfate (K2S2O8) medium, MnCO3 exhibited ECL emission with an ECL band appearing at 500-600 nm. In addition, Au@SiO2 nanoparticles showed a UV-visible absorption at 450-650 nm. The ECL emission spectra of MnCO3 overlapped with the absorption spectra of Au@SiO2NPs. The effective ECL quenching resulted in a good response to the concentration of Aß42 in serum samples. The linear range was 5 fg ⋅ mL-1 to 100 ng ⋅ mL-1, and the detection limit was 2 fg ⋅ mL-1. The recovery ranged from 97.7% to 104%. The high-efficiency ECL-RET immunosensor has potential application in detecting human serum Aß42 and other biomarkers, and can be used for the early screening of diseases.

RESUMEN

Personal thermal management (PTM) is a promising approach for maintaining the thermal comfort zone of the human body while minimizing the energy consumption of indoor buildings. Recent studies have reported the development of numerous advanced textiles that enable PTM systems to regulate body temperature and are comfortable to wear. Herein, recent advancements in thermoregulatory clothing for PTM are discussed. These advances in thermoregulatory clothing have focused on enhancing the control of heat dissipation between the skin and the localized environment. We primarily summarize research on advanced clothing that controls the heat dissipation pathways of the human body, such as radiation- and conductance-controlled clothing. Furthermore, adaptive clothing such as dual-mode textiles, which can regulate the microclimate of the human body, as well as responsive textiles that address both thermal performance (warming and/or cooling) and wearability are discussed. Finally, we include a discussion on significant challenges and perspectives in this field, including large-scale production, smart textiles, bioinspired clothing, and AI-assisted clothing. This comprehensive review aims to further the development of sustainably manufactured advanced clothing with superior thermal performance and outstanding wearability for PTM in practical applications.
