Facile Fabrication of Luminescent Eu(III) Functionalized HOF Hydrogel Film with Multifunctionailities: Quinolones Fluorescent Sensor and Anticounterfeiting Platform

The luminescent hydrogen-bonded organic framework (HOF) based films have become one of the most remarkable materials for optical application, thus, developing facile synthesis methods and establishing multifunctional applications for HOF-based luminescent materials are essential. Herein, a dual-emitting Eu³⁺-functionalized HOF hydrogel film ( 1 ) is fabricated successfully. 1 emits a blue-green long afterglow when turning off the UV lamp, and the long afterglow lifetime gets to 1.99 s. 1 performs great selectivity, high sensitivity, and low detection limit toward ofloxacin and flumequine, and the sensing toward ofloxacin and flumequine is in accord with the chroma and ratio modes. The fluorescent response mechanisms of 1  toward ofloxacin and flumequine are investigated in depth, which are further utilized to build an anticounterfeiting platform with high-level security. The film-based anticounterfeiting platform can conduct information encryption on demand inline with different fluorescent responses and can also fetch specific information by controlling the long afterglow intensity and excited light. This study not only provides a representative case of the fabrication of dual-emitting Eu³⁺-functionalized HOF-based hydrogel film but also opens the possibility of HOF-based film as intelligent luminescent materials with multifunctionalities.

Embedding carbon dots in Eu3+-doped metal-organic framework for label-free ratiometric fluorescence detection of Fe3+ ions

Fluorescent detection is a new spectroscopic measurement for ions sensing due to the advantages of real-time determination with high selectivity, accuracy, and low cost. However, chemosensors based on fluorescent detection are usually determined by absolute intensity from a monochromatic emission signal, which is easy to be fluctuated by the external environment, especially for Fe³⁺ detection in complex fluids. Herein, we rationally design a dual-emission Eu³⁺: CDs@ZIF-8 to construct a ratiometric fluorescent sensor with self-calibrating ability for Fe³⁺ determination. High efficient carbon dots (CDs) are embedded in europium ions (Eu³⁺)-doped MOF by simple stirring preparation at room temperature. The label-free ratiometric fluorescent probe (I_CDs@ZIF-8/I_Eu) exhibits simultaneous blue and red emission under the same excitation at 365 nm. Remarkably, Eu³⁺: CDs@ZIF-8 displays the superiority of high selectivity to Fe³⁺, which shows ratiometric fluorescence characteristics (I₀/I) in a range of 0-6 μmol\L with a low limit of detection (LOD) of 0.897 μmol\L. Besides, the CDs-MOF nanocomposite holds good aqueous dispersibility and low cytotoxicity, which shows great potential applications in medical aid including biological detection and clinical diagnosis.     

Green sonochemistry fabrication of pure Gd2Sn2O7 nanoparticles with advanced photocatalytic efficiency for elimination of dye pollutions

The insufficiency of clean water sources has become a perilous tension for the future of the world that one of the eco-friendly and cost-effective solutions is the photocatalytic process for removal of artificial dyes and poisonous organic impurities. In the current research, an eco-friendly sonochemistry process was accomplished to gain Gd₂Sn₂O₇ (GSO) nanoparticles with progressive photo-catalytic proficiency. Lysine amino acid as a green capping agent and ethylenediamine (en) as an alkaline agent were utilized with effective surface categories aiming to manage the growth of formed nuclei with the design of spatial barriers around the metal cations and lastly, stop nano-sample accumulation. The figure and dimension of products was studied by various characterization procedures of spectroscopic and microscopic. The photo-degradation performances of the pure Gd₂Sn₂O₇, Gd₂Sn₂O₇/SnO₂ and Gd₂Sn₂O₇/SnO₂/Gd₂O₃ nanocomposites were tested to the removal of diverse synthetic dyes. The outcome of the type of dye, nano-catalyst composition, pH and scavenger kind was labeled on modifying ability of Gd-Sn-O nano-catalyst task. Optimized Gd₂Sn₂O₇/SnO₂/Gd₂O₃ nanocomposites have an efficiency of 98% for degradation of erythrosine dye that ^?OH radicals support photo-degradation of contamination.     

Inhibitory effects of curcumin and piperine on fluorescent advanced glycation end products formation in a bovine serum albumin–fructose model

This study investigated the inhibitory effects of curcumin and piperine on fluorescent advanced glycation end products (fAGEs) formation in a bovine serum albumin (BSA)–fructose model. Model systems of BSA and fructose were prepared, and curcumin or piperine was added. fAGEs and BSA oxidation product (dityrosine, kynurenine and N'-formylkynurenine) contents were determined. The results showed that fAGEs content decreased with increasing concentration of curcumin and piperine (P < 0.05). Addition of curcumin and piperine at 160 µg mL⁻¹ could inhibit fluorescent AGEs by 100% and 93% respectively. Dityrosine and N'-formylkynurenine contents decreased as curcumin and piperine concentration increased (P < 0.05). Furthermore, the result of principal component analysis indicated that curcumin and piperine markedly impeded BSA oxidation, resulting in a lower level of fAGEs in model systems. Therefore, adding curcumin and piperine may facilitate reduced fAGEs levels in BSA–fructose model.

Stabilization of natural gas foams using different surfactants at high pressure and high temperature conditions

Natural gas foam can be used for mobility control and channel blocking during natural gas injection for enhanced oil recovery, in which stable foams need to be used at high reservoir temperature, high pressure and high water salinity conditions in field applications. In this study, the performance of methane (CH₄) foams stabilized by different types of surfactants was tested using a high pressure and high temperature foam meter for surfactant screening and selection, including anionic surfactant (sodium dodecyl sulfate), non-anionic surfactant (alkyl polyglycoside), zwitterionic surfactant (dodecyl dimethyl betaine) and cationic surfactant (dodecyl trimethyl ammonium chloride), and the results show that CH₄-SDS foam has much better performance than that of the other three surfactants. The influences of gas types (CH₄, N₂, and CO₂), surfactant concentration, temperature (up to 110°C), pressure (up to 12.0 MPa), and the presence of polymers as foam stabilizer on foam performance was also evaluated using SDS surfactant. The experimental results show that the stability of CH₄ foam is better than that of CO₂ foam, while N₂ foam is the most stable, and CO₂ foam has the largest foam volume, which can be attributed to the strong interactions between CO₂ molecules with H₂O. The foaming ability and foam stability increase with the increase of the SDS concentration up to 1.0 wt% (0.035 mol/L), but a further increase of the surfactant concentration has a negative effect. The high temperature can greatly reduce the stability of CH₄-SDS foam, while the foaming ability and foam stability can be significantly enhanced at high pressure. The addition of a small amount of polyacrylamide as a foam stabilizer can significantly increase the viscosity of the bulk solution and improve the foam stability, and the higher the molecular weight of the polymer, the higher viscosity of the foam liquid film, the better foam performance.

Background: Dehydropeptides are analogs of peptides containing at least one conjugate double bond between α,β-carbon atoms. Its presence provides unique structural properties and reaction centre for chemical modification. In this study, the series of new class of dipeptides containing S-substituted dehydrocysteine with variety of heterocyclic moieties was prepared. The compounds were designed as the building blocks for the construction of artificial metalloenzymes (artzymes). Therefore, the complexing properties of representative compounds were also evaluated. Furthermore, the acknowledged biological activity of natural dehydropeptides was the reason to extend the study for antiproliferative action of against several cancer cell lines. Methods: The synthetic strategy involves glycyl and phenylalanyl-(Z)-β-bromodehydroalanine as a substrate in one pot addition/elimination reaction of thiols. After deprotection of N-terminal amino group the compounds with triazole ring were tested as complexones for copper(II) ions using potentiometric titration and spectroscopic techniques (UV-Vis, CD, EPR). Finally, the antiproliferative activity was evaluated by sulforhodamine B assay. Results and Conclusions: A simple and efficient procedure for preparation of dipeptides containing S-substituded dehydrocysteine was provided. The peptides containing triazole appeared to be strong complexones of copper(II) ions. Some of the peptides exhibited promising antiproliferative activities against number of cancer cell lines, including cell lines resistant to widely used anticancer agent.
