Partial Thermal Condensation Mediated Synthesis of High-Density Nickel Single Atom Sites on Carbon Nitride for Selective Photooxidation of Methane into Methanol.

Direct selective transformation of greenhouse methane (CH4) to liquid oxygenates (methanol) can substitute energy-intensive two-step (reforming/Fischer-Tropsch) synthesis while creating environmental benefits. The development of inexpensive, selective, and robust catalysts that enable room temperature conversion will decide the future of this technology. Single-atom catalysts (SACs) with isolated active centers embedded in support have displayed significant promises in catalysis to drive challenging reactions. Herein, high-density Ni single atoms are developed and stabilized on carbon nitride (NiCN) via thermal condensation of preorganized Ni-coordinated melem units. The physicochemical characterization of NiCN with various analytical techniques including HAADF-STEM and X-ray absorption fine structure (XAFS) validate the successful formation of Ni single atoms coordinated to the heptazine-constituted CN network. The presence of uniform catalytic sites improved visible absorption and carrier separation in densely populated NiCN SAC resulting in 100% selective photoconversion of (CH4) to methanol using H2O2 as an oxidant. The superior catalytic activity can be attributed to the generation of high oxidation (NiIII═O) sites and selective C─H bond cleavage to generate •CH3 radicals on Ni centers, which can combine with •OH radicals to generate CH3OH.

Photocatalysis with atomically thin sheets.

Atomically thin sheets (e.g., graphene and monolayer molybdenum disulfide) are ideal optical and reaction platforms. They provide opportunities for deciphering some important and often elusive photocatalytic phenomena related to electronic band structures and photo-charges. In parallel, in such thin sheets, fine tuning of photocatalytic properties can be achieved. These include atomic-level regulation of electronic band structures and atomic-level steering of charge separation and transfer. Herein, we review the physics and chemistry of electronic band structures and photo-charges, as well as their state-of-the-art characterization techniques, before delving into their atomic-level deciphering and mastery on the platform of atomically thin sheets.

Visible Light-Switchable Lattice Oxygen Sites for Selective C-H and C(O)-C Bond Electrooxidation.

Lattice-oxygen is highly oxidizable, ideal for electrocatalytic C-H oxidation but insufficient alone for C(O)-C bond cleavage due to the non-removable nature of lattice sites. Here, we present a visible light-assisted electrochemical method of in-situ formulating removable lattice-oxygen sites in a nickel-oxyhydroxide (ESE-NiOOH) electrocatalyst. This catalyst efficiently converts aromatic alcohols and carbonyls with C(O)-C fragments from lignin and plastics into benzoic acids (BAs) with high yields (83-99%). Without light irradiation, ESE-NiOOH's intrinsic lattice-oxygen is non-removable and inert for C(O)-C bond cleavage. In-situ characterizations show light-induced lattice-oxygen removal and regeneration via OH- refilling. Theoretical calculations identify the nucleophilic oxygen attack on ketone-derived carbanion as a rate-determining step, which can be remarkably facilitated by removable lattice-oxygen to activate α-C-H bonds. As a proof-of-concept, an "electrochemical funnel" strategy is developed for high-efficiency upgrading aromatic mixtures with C(O)-C moieties into BA with up to 94% yield. This in-situ removal-regeneration approach for lattice sites opens an avenue for the tailored design of interfacial electrocatalysts to selectively upcycle waste carbon sources into valuable products.

High-Density Cobalt Single-Atom Catalysts for Enhanced Oxygen Evolution Reaction.

Single atom catalysts (SACs) possess unique catalytic properties due to low-coordination and unsaturated active sites. However, the demonstrated performance of SACs is limited by low SAC loading, poor metal-support interactions, and nonstable performance. Herein, we report a macromolecule-assisted SAC synthesis approach that enabled us to demonstrate high-density Co single atoms (10.6 wt % Co SAC) in a pyridinic N-rich graphenic network. The highly porous carbon network (surface area of ∼186 m2 g-1) with increased conjugation and vicinal Co site decoration in Co SACs significantly enhanced the electrocatalytic oxygen evolution reaction (OER) in 1 M KOH (η10 at 351 mV; mass activity of 2209 mA mgCo-1 at 1.65 V) with more than 300 h stability. Operando X-ray absorption near-edge structure demonstrates the formation of electron-deficient Co-O coordination intermediates, accelerating OER kinetics. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations reveal the facile electron transfer from cobalt to oxygen species-accelerated OER.

2D Transition Metal Dichalcogenides for Photocatalysis.

Two-dimensional (2D) transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs), a rising star in the post-graphene era, are fundamentally and technologically intriguing for photocatalysis. Their extraordinary electronic, optical, and chemical properties endow them as promising materials for effectively harvesting light and catalyzing the redox reaction in photocatalysis. Here, we present a tutorial-style review of the field of 2D TMDs for photocatalysis to educate researchers (especially the new-comers), which begins with a brief introduction of the fundamentals of 2D TMDs and photocatalysis along with the synthesis of this type of material, then look deeply into the merits of 2D TMDs as co-catalysts and active photocatalysts, followed by an overview of the challenges and corresponding strategies of 2D TMDs for photocatalysis, and finally look ahead this topic.

Ultrastretchable, Adhesive, and Antibacterial Hydrogel with Robust Spinnability for Manufacturing Strong Hydrogel Micro/Nanofibers.

The ultrastretchable (over 12 400%) hydrogel with long-lasting adhesion, strong antibacterial activity, and robust spinnability is developed based on the oxidative decarboxylation and quinone-catechol reversible redox reaction induced by Ag-lignin nanoparticles in a precursor solution containing citric acid (CA), acrylic acid (AA), and poly (acrylamide-co-acrylic acid) (P(AAm-co-AA)). With massive reversible interactions including hydrogen bonds and electrostatic forces, such hydrogel exhibits promising injectability and is facilely spun via manual drawing, draw-spinning, and electrospinning for manufacturing strong hydrogel micro/nanofibers. The resulting fibers exhibit excellent mechanical properties, including tensile stress of 422.0 MPa, strain of 86.5%, Young's modulus of 8.7 GPa, and toughness of 281.6 MJ m-3 . The hydrogel microfibers obtained from a house-built spinner are scaled-up fabricated while retaining promising mechanical properties, as evidenced by lifting a load (317.2 g) using the spun fibers of ≈33 000 times lighter weight (9.5 mg), indicating their great potentials in the applications such as net and safety cord which require robust mechanical properties. Moreover, assisted by a commercial electrospinning machine, nanosized hydrogel fibers are facilely spun on personal protective equipment such as a mask to offer an antiseptic coating with near 100% killing efficiency against airborne bacteria aerosols, demonstrating the capability of spun hydrogel fibers on disinfection-related applications.

Lipase-Immobilized Cellulosic Capsules with Water Absorbency for Enhanced Pickering Interfacial Biocatalysis.

Lipase-immobilized cellulosic capsules consisting of hydrophobic ethyl cellulose (EC) and hydrophilic carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) were developed with a promising interfacial activity and water absorbency for the enhanced Pickering interfacial biocatalysis. Lipase was physically immobilized with water-absorbent materials (CMC) via hydrogen bonding and electrostatic interactions and acted as the interior catalytic core of the capsule. The interfacially active EC worked as the exterior shell, enabling capsules to stabilize the oil-in-water Pickering emulsion for the subsequent Pickering interfacial catalysis. The capsules with CMC created interior water-rich conditions to improve the conformational and enzymatic activity of the immobilized lipase. Compared with capsules without water-absorbent materials, the capsules with CMC enhanced the efficiency of the Pickering interfacial catalysis for the esterification of oleic acid and 1-octanol by 12%. Immobilized with a small amount of lipase (0.0625 g/g), the cellulosic capsules with water absorbency could convert 50.8% of the reactants after 10 h under room temperature, significantly higher than that by the same amount of free lipase in the biphasic system (15%) and a Pickering emulsion (24.1%) stabilized by empty capsules (without lipase). Moreover, the cellulosic capsules could be recycled by simple centrifugation while retaining their high relative catalytic activity for at least eight cycles, demonstrating their sustainable catalytic performance.

Effect of the coexistence of SO32- and PO43- on the adsorption performance of zeolite-loaded FeOOH@ZnO for S2.

The present study deals with the synthesis of zeolite-loaded FeOOH@ZnO by hydrothermal method and investigates the effects of coexisting SO32- and PO43- ions in the aqueous solution on the adsorption performance for S2-. The results showed that the HNO3-modified zeolite loaded with FeOOH@ZnO (FeOOH@ZnO/HZ) resulted in a maximum S2- removal rate of ≈98%. The adsorbent's performance on removing S2- was significantly enhanced, compared with NaOH and ZnCl2-modified zeolites loaded with FeOOH@ZnO, and the adsorption was proved to be a heat-absorbing process. When SO32- and PO43- coexisted with S2-, SO32- and PO43- had a significant influence on the adsorption properties of FeOOH@ZnO/HZ. When three ions of S2-, SO32- and PO43- were present simultaneously, the adsorption performance of FeOOH@ZnO/HZ on S2- was further, and the removal rate dropped to about 80%. Moreover, FeOOH@ZnO/HZ also adsorbed PO43- and SO32- in the system containing multiple ions, but the adsorption rates of PO43- and SO32- were much lower than S2-. This indicated that the adsorption of S2- in the presence of FeOOH@ZnO/HZ dominates under competitive conditions.

Fabrication and characterization of lignin-xylan hybrid nanospheres as pesticide carriers with enzyme-mediated release property.

Lignin nanospheres (LNPs) are an emerging high-value material platform to realize lignin valorization. The modification or introduction of new functions to LNPs is of great significance to expand its downstream applications. This work evaluated the technical feasibility of preparing lignin-xylan hybrid nanospheres (LXNPs) through a simple solution-based self-assembly process, with the goal of achieving the application as pesticide carriers for enzyme-mediated controlled release. Hybrid LXNPs with various weigh ratios (lignin to xylan, 3 : 1, 1 : 1, 1 : 3) were obtained using deep eutectic solvent-extracted condensed lignin and water-insoluble xylan fragments, which exhibited a nanosphere size of about 166-210 nm with considerable stability in the pH range of 4-10. LXNPs with lignin to xylan ratios of 3 : 1 and 1 : 1 showed well-defined core-shell structures with enriched hydroxyl groups on the surface. It was proposed that lignin could anchor xylan fragments through van der Waals force and hydrophobic interactions between lignin phenylpropanes and xylan molecular backbones, thus facilitating the self-assembly process for the formation of this specific spherical structure. The resulting hydrophobic LXNPs core enabled the facile encapsulation of the biological pesticide avermectin (AVM) with 57.9-67.0% efficiency using one-pot synthesis. When these AVM-encapsulated LXNPs were subjected to enzymatic hydrolysis using xylanase, considerable AVM release of 44.8-55.1% was achieved after 16 h, in comparison to the 4.1% release only for those without xylanase. This work showed the high promise of fabricating hybrid LXNPs through the self-assembly process and also provided a universal nanosphere carrier for drug encapsulation and subsequent enzyme-mediated controlled release.

Characterization of the complex involved in regulating V-ATPase activity of the vacuolar and endosomal membrane.

Regulator of the H+-ATPase of the vacuolar and endosomal membranes (RAVE) is essential for the reversible assembly of H+-ATPase. RAVE primarily consists of three subunits: Rav1p, Rav2p and Skp1p. To characterize these subunits, in this study, four strains derived from Saccharomyces cerevisiae BY4742 were constructed with a FLAG tag on the Rav1p and Rav2p subunits. Then, the corresponding RAVE containing complex was isolated by affinity purification. Western blot and MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry analyses showed that the RAVE complex contains not only the known V1-ATPase subunits (Vma1p and Vma2p) but also a newly found Leu1p that interacts with the RAVE subunit. Furthermore, we constructed rav1-/rav2-/vma2-/leu1-deficient recombinants by fusion PCR and homologous recombination and demonstrated that leu1 is indispensable in adjusting the microbial cell to adverse environments and that the function is similar to that of rav1/rav2 but significantly differs from that of vma2. Leu1p probably plays an important role in RAVE regulation of V-ATPase activity in conjunction with RAVE.

Mechanistic insights into the liquefaction stage of enzyme-mediated biomass deconstruction.

Effective enzyme-mediated viscosity reduction, disaggregation, or "liquefaction," is required to overcome the rheological challenges resulting from the fibrous, hygroscopic nature of lignocellulosic biomass, particularly at the high solids loadings that will be required for an economically viable process. However, the actual mechanisms involved in enzyme-mediated liquefaction, as determined by viscosity or yield stress reduction, have yet to be fully resolved. Particle fragmentation, interparticle interaction, material dilution, and water-retention capacity were compared for their ability to quantify enzyme-mediated liquefaction of model and more realistic pretreated biomass substrates. It was apparent that material dilution and particle fragmentation occurred simultaneously and that both mechanisms contributed to viscosity/yield stress reduction. However, their relative importance was dependent on the nature of the biomass substrate. Interparticle interaction and enzyme-mediated changes to these interactions was shown to have a significant effect on slurry rheology. Liquefaction was shown to result from the combined action of material dilution, particle fragmentation, and alteration of interactions at particle surfaces. However, the observed changes in water retention capacity did not correlate with yield stress reduction. The relative importance of each mechanism was significantly influenced by the nature of the biomass substrate and its physicochemical properties. An ongoing challenge is that mechanisms, such as refining, which enhance enzyme accessibility to the cellulosic component of the substrate, are detrimental to slurry rheology and will likely impede enzyme-mediated liquefaction when high substrate concentrations are used.

The use of carbohydrate binding modules (CBMs) to monitor changes in fragmentation and cellulose fiber surface morphology during cellulase- and Swollenin-induced deconstruction of lignocellulosic substrates.

Although the actions of many of the hydrolytic enzymes involved in cellulose hydrolysis are relatively well understood, the contributions that amorphogenesis-inducing proteins might contribute to cellulose deconstruction are still relatively undefined. Earlier work has shown that disruptive proteins, such as the non-hydrolytic non-oxidative protein Swollenin, can open up and disaggregate the less-ordered regions of lignocellulosic substrates. Within the cellulosic fraction, relatively disordered, amorphous regions known as dislocations are known to occur along the length of the fibers. It was postulated that Swollenin might act synergistically with hydrolytic enzymes to initiate biomass deconstruction within these dislocation regions. Carbohydrate binding modules (CBMs) that preferentially bind to cellulosic substructures were fluorescently labeled. They were imaged, using confocal microscopy, to assess the distribution of crystalline and amorphous cellulose at the fiber surface, as well as to track changes in surface morphology over the course of enzymatic hydrolysis and fiber fragmentation. Swollenin was shown to promote targeted disruption of the cellulosic structure at fiber dislocations.

Rational construction of visible-light-driven perylene diimides/Fe2O3@C derived from MIL-88A (Fe) heterojunction with S-scheme electron transfer pathway to activate peroxymonosulfate for degradation of antibiotics.

The novel composite photocatalytic material perylene diimides/Fe2O3@C (PDIs/Fe2O3@C) was constructed by a simple hydrothermal-calcination method and an oil bath method. 20 % PDIs/Fe2O3@C displayed a 16.4-fold increase in the rate of tetracycline (TC) removal over Fe2O3@C at 8 min. The main factor that enhanced photocatalytic performance was due to the combination of PDIs with Fe2O3@C, which effectively improved the phenomenon during the self-assembly of highly agglomerative PDIs, increased the specific surface area of Fe2O3@C, exposed more reaction sites, and promoted the activation of peroxymonosulfate (PMS) by Fe2+/Fe3+; and secondly, the composite of two different materials, both organic and inorganic, which effectively promoted the photogenerated electron transfer and the separation of electron-hole pairs, the a new S-scheme electron transport pathway is formed, which effectively promoted the photogenerated electron transfer as well as the e--h+ separation, which was more favorable for the activation of PMS. The whole reaction pathway and product toxicity were thoroughly evaluated by Fukui function calculations, Liquid Chromatograph Mass Spectrometer (LC-MS), and Toxicity Estimation Software Tool (T.E.S.T.) simulation results, which demonstrated the rationality of the degradation pathway and the greatly reduced product toxicity. Moreover, the composites were effective and versatile for all other antibiotics (chlortetracycline (CTC), ciprofloxacin (CIP) and sulfadiazine (SDZ)). As an advanced oxidation process, the activation of PDIs/Fe2O3@C under visible light shows its potential application in pollutant degradation, which provides new perspectives and ideas for further effective treatment of real wastewater.

Biofunctionalization of Cellulose Microcarriers Using a Carbohydrate Binding Module Linked with Fibroblast Growth Factor for the Expansion of Human Umbilical Mesenchymal Stromal Cells in Stirred Suspension Bioreactors.

Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) have the potential to be used as autologous or allogenic cell therapy in several diseases due to their beneficial secretome and capacity for immunomodulation and differentiation. However, clinical trials using MSCs require a large number of cells. As an alternative to traditional culture flasks, suspension bioreactors provide a scalable platform to produce clinically relevant quantities of cells. When cultured in bioreactors, anchorage-dependent cells like MSCs require the addition of microcarriers, which provide a surface for cell attachment while in suspension. The best performing microcarriers are typically coated in animal derived proteins, which increases cellular attachment and proliferation but present issues from a regulatory perspective. To overcome this issue, a recombinant fusion protein was generated linking basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) to a cellulose-specific carbohydrate binding module (CBM) and used to functionalize the surface of cellulose microcarriers for the expansion of human umbilical MSCs in suspension bioreactors. The fusion protein was shown to support the growth of MSCs when used as a soluble growth factor in the absence of cellulose, readily bound to cellulose microcarriers in a dose-dependent manner, and ultimately improved the expansion of MSCs when grown in bioreactors using cellulose microcarriers. The use of CBM fusion proteins offers a simple method for the surface immobilization of growth factors to animal component-free substrates such as cellulose, which can be used alongside bioreactors to increase growth factor lifespan, decrease culture medium cost, and increase cell production in the manufacturing of therapeutic cells.

Floating Photothermal Hydrogen Production.

Solar-to-hydrogen (STH) is emerging as a promising approach for energy storage and conversion to contribute to carbon neutrality. The lack of efficient catalysts and sustainable reaction systems is stimulating the fast development of photothermal hydrogen production based on floating carriers to achieve unprecedented STH efficiency. This technology involves three major components: floating carriers with hierarchically porous structures, photothermal materials for solar-to-heat conversion and photocatalysts for hydrogen production. Under solar irradiation, the floating photothermal system realizes steam generation which quickly diffuses to the active site for sustainable hydrogen generation with the assistance of a hierarchically porous structure. Additionally, this technology is endowed with advantages in the high utilization of solar energy and catalyst retention, making it suitable for various scenarios, including domestic water supply, wastewater treatment, and desalination. A comprehensive overview of the photothermal hydrogen production system is present due to the economic feasibility for industrial application. The in-depth mechanism of a floating photothermal system, including the solar-to-heat effect, steam diffusion, and triple-phase interaction are highlighted by elucidating the logical relationship among buoyant carriers, photothermal materials, and catalysts for hydrogen production. Finally, the challenges and new opportunities facing current photothermal catalytic hydrogen production systems are analyzed.

Carbon-based single-atom catalysts derived from biomass: Fabrication and application.

Single-atom catalysts (SACs) with active metals dispersed atomically have shown great potential in heterogeneous catalysis due to the high atomic utilization and superior selectivity/stability. Synthesis of SACs using carbon-neutral biomass and its components as the feedstocks provides a promising strategy to realize the sustainable and cost-effective SACs preparation as well as the valorization of underused biomass resources. Herein, we begin by describing the general background and status quo of carbon-based SACs derived from biomass. A detailed enumeration of the common biomass feedstocks (e.g., lignin, cellulose, chitosan, etc.) for the SACs preparation is then offered. The interactions between metal atoms and biomass-derived carbon carriers are summarized to give general rules on how to stabilize the atomic metal centers and rationalize porous carbon structures. Furthermore, the widespread adoption of catalysts in diverse domains (e.g., chemocatalysis, electrocatalysis and photocatalysis, etc.) is comprehensively introduced. The structure-property relationships and the underlying catalytic mechanisms are also addressed, including the influences of metal sites on the activity and stability, and the impact of the unique structure of single-atom centers modulated by metal/biomass feedstocks interactions on catalytic activity and selectivity. Finally, we end this review with a look into the remaining challenges and future perspectives of biomass-based SACs. We expect to shed some light on the forthcoming research of carbon-based SACs derived from biomass, manifestly stimulating the development in this emerging research area.

Redox-Concatenated Aptamer Integrated Skin Mimicking Electrochemical Patch for Noninvasive Detection of Cortisol.

This research focuses on developing and validating a wearable electrochemical biosensor called the concatenated aptamer integrated skin patch, also known as the Captain Patch. The main objective is to detect cortisol levels in sweat, which can provide valuable insights into an individual's health. The biosensor utilizes a corrugated surface that mimics the skin, allowing for better attachment and an improved electrochemical performance. The study demonstrates the successful application of Captain Patch on the human body by using artificially spiked sweat samples. The results indicate good measurement accuracy and conformity when the patch is worn on the body. However, for long-term usage, the patch needs to be changed every 3-4 h or worn three times a day to enable monitoring of cortisol levels. Despite the need for frequent patch changes, the cost-effectiveness and ease of operation make these skin patches suitable for longitudinal cortisol monitoring and other sweat analytes. By customization of the biorecognition probe, the developed biowearable can be used to monitor a variety of vital biomarkers. Overall, Captain Patch, with its capability of detecting specific health markers such as cortisol, hints at the future potential of wearables to offer valuable data on various other biomarkers. Our approach presents the first step in integrating a cost-effective wearable electrochemical patch integrated with a redox-concatenated aptamer for noninvasive biomarker detection. This personalized approach to monitoring can lead to improved patient outcomes and increased patient engagement in managing their health.
